The food was good. They tried very hard to keep one of our meals gluten free by cooking it separately and prior to the other meals. We had multiple food allergies at the table (from both sets of diners) and they did a great job of making it a safe eating experience.
Our chef, however, was not one of the ones that puts on any type of "show" and that was disappointing. That's part of the hibachi experience and we definitely missed it. They stated that someone would be around to take free photos for everyone when we arrived and that never happened.
We went because of a birthday coupon but in the future, we'll visit other hibachi restaurants, as we enjoy the experience and fun that this type of dining is supposed to provide and Benihana didn't live up to that expectation.
