Courtney was our waitress. She was very good. We will request her on our next visit. The food was excellent as usual. The resturant was packed. We both our rewards members and made a reservation several days ahead of time requesting a table in the bar area next to the fireplace. Patron were camping out so we had to sit in the room south of the bar. It was cozy and very quiet. Nice location.

I requested Jeremy as our chef and was exceptionally pleased with the food and service. He put on quite the show and, as usual was very cognizant of any allergies at the table. The food was superb!! This is our favorite place to dine out. I would highly recommend Benihana and Jeremy in particular for any occasion.

We have been here a few times. The food was decent this time. The drinks were good. The service started okay and then went downhill halfway through from our server and we were not the only table having issues. We will go back, but it is because of location and drinks.
