    Great experience! Christmas Day can be crazy, but the staff at Benihana made it a great day. We did wait about 45 minutes past our reservation time, but were seated promptly and had a great chef! (Chefsito) who balanced his great cooking skills with a warm sense of humor. Food was great. Server was attentive and kept the drinks filled. Even though it sure was a crazy day for dining out, it was really awesome!

    We had Christmas dinner at Roy’s and thoroughly enjoyed it. The service was amazing. Several people checked on us throughout the meal. We had the wedge salads which were loaded with great toppings including lots of blue cheese. Two of us had the twin lobster tails which were quite generous. The other two had steak which they enjoyed. The desserts were also delicious. I do wish someone would have asked if we needed parking validation as it wasn’t until we got out to the parking garage that I realized I would need it. Otherwise, everything was perfect.
