Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Benihana in Milwaukee offers a mixed dining experience. Guests rave about the "fantastic food and drinks" and "entertaining chefs," particularly praising Chef Luis. However, some note service delays and the need for interior updates. It's a great spot for celebrations, especially with accommodating staff for special occasions, though service varies.

    Worst hibachi experience! Not worth the $150 bill. Waited an hour after reservation to be seated another 45 min to food. Waiter was great and friendly. Food was awful for price. Soba noodles guy cooked for 16 seconds on grill and they were cold and hard. Cooke was 0 entertaining and gave me well done vs medium steak. Manager gave me hardly a discount after I asked for something to be taken off due to the disappointment . She made excuses of them being busy. I’m sorry you don’t get to charge $49 a plate and serve quickly cooked crappy unseasoned food.

    Was expecting a better level of food quality and service. Restaurant needs updating, hibachi chef was boring and added nothing to the experience. Would probably not return to this restaurant again.

    The food and chef were fantastic. The service not so much. We arrived ten minutes before our reservation and didn't get seated until 15 minutes past our reservation. We didn't get our drinks for another 20 minutes after being seated. Also as an FYI, if you order the fried rice get it with chicken. It's an extra $6.50 for regular fried rice and the same price as chicken fried rice per person. On a positive, the food was delicious and our chef was fantastic.

    We waited a long time for the chef to come to our table. We didn’t all of our meal and the food tasted horrible. We will not be going back!

    We made a reservation l. Upon arrival we had to wait an additional 45 min to be seated. Once seated, there were not enough cooks scheduled. The restaurant was full and no one addressed us for twenty minutes after we were seated. We finally got our orders taken. The cook finally began to grill our food on a dirty grill. Our soup and salad cups were taken while we were still eating them. The cook made everyone’s food at the table, cleans the grill and failed to make our rice. It had to be made in the back of the kitchen and then brought to us several minutes later. Meanwhile, our meat and vegetables got very cold and we became disinterested in the overall experience.
