Benihana - Teppanyaki restaurant in City of Industry - 17877 Gale Ave, USA

When you go to Benihana's for lunch, you'll get the flying cooking utensils, the fire, the corny one liners and the same good food and service you get during their dinner hours. However, the one thing you won't get is a lunch menu. You'll need to ask for one (see picture), otherwise you'll get the dinner menu (along with the dinner prices). Lunch comes with either salad or soup and no shrimp appetizer. We had the hibachi chicken, scallops and fried rice (gotta love that fried rice). All were cooked perfectly and tasted as you'd expect. The restaurant is older and could use some "touching up", but clean otherwise. The staff were friendly and attentive as well.

Very long wait, even though I had a reservation. They made us wait an additional hour and a half for just 2 people. I checked in 45 minutes before my 7:30 PM reservation and noticed the walk-in people were given preference ! (at least 20 walk-ins were seated before us ) We were seated in the back and there was three tables waiting for chefs . At the front desk you will find three young teens trying to accommodate people while horse playing. And they definitely don’t do a good job ! Expensive 5-6 course meals. The salad and ginger dressing slowly but surely have gotten worse in quality and taste. I’ve been coming to Benihana’s for at least 25 years. This is one of the worst locations. Sushi is never fresh. I’ve had the same mediocre quality fish at the Ontario location. Our chef overcooked my steak and burned zucchini, onions and mushrooms.

Great place. Staff appeared to be friendly and chef was funny. I have celebrated birthdays and special occasions as well as a “just because” evening with the family. If in town, you must experience the food and hospitality.

I ordered online for take out, $200 worth, even tipped 15%, and everything was put in one bag. I step no more than 10 feet away from my car and the bag rips, spilling the contents on the ground. WHO EVEN THINKS THAT PUTTING THIS MUCH WEIGHT IN A SINGLE BAG MAKES SENSE? WHY IS THE HEAVIEST ITEM ON TOP AND NOT THE BOTTOM? Plus my food is luke warm at best and my steak is cooked to medium when I asked for medium rare. The entree comes with shrimp and I get 3 pieces? This is pretty ridiculous. Furthermore, I was given the crispy onions for the soup, but there is no soup. So I just paid for a full meal and didn't even get the full meal. Management, you need to do something about this and your staff. This is a complete disgrace and dishonor to Rocky's name and family.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Benihana with a small group of friends and family, and I must say that the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly by the friendly staff and seated at a table that was perfect for our group. Our chef was incredibly skilled and entertaining, putting on a show as he expertly prepared our food right in front of us. Speaking of the food, it was absolutely delicious. The quality of the ingredients was clearly top-notch, and everything was cooked to perfection. The lobster, in particular, was outstanding, and the chateaubriand steak was some of the best I've ever tasted. What really stood out, however, was the exceptional service that we received throughout our meal. Our server was attentive and accommodating, ensuring that our drinks were never empty and that we had everything we needed to fully enjoy our dining experience. It was clear that the staff at Benihana goes above and beyond to make their guests feel welcome and well taken care of. Overall, I would highly recommend Benihana to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. The food is exceptional, the service is outstanding, and the atmosphere is perfect for a small group of friends or family. If you're looking for a memorable meal, look no further than Benihana.

Went for the lunch special for the first time. Everything was fantastic!

The food and service was excellent. The parking is horrendous on the days Frank & Sons is open. 😩 Pricing is a bit expensive but the food quality is top-notch.

Benihana is always a great spot for food that's entertaining... especially for larger groups of 10-15 people. You get used to the routine, but always hope the cook has a different spin on it. Today was a good day.
