There are ninety-nine different ways to write “sushi” in the Japanese script of kanji. Each with its own unique interpretation and meaning. It was with great deliberation that our founder, Billy, chose 寿司 to best represent his personal interpretation of the word - Celebration of Fish!That’s exactly how Billy feels about the art of making sushi and the atmosphere that surrounds it - it should be a celebration! Which is why Billy Sushi is more than just a restaurant, it is an experience for anyone who allows themselves to take part. A three-ring performance of sorts - sushi bar, sake bar and dining room - brought to life by the performances of sushi chefs, bartenders and servers. And the Ring Master and your host, Billy.

Benihana is pretty much the same as always. The restaurant is a little run down. Kinda sad. We’ve been going off and on for years. It’s been a while, 6 years I think. Food is the same. Some of it really good like the scallops. I wasn’t as crazy about the fried rice this time. Not sure what’s changed. The other 3 in our party liked it. Our chef/server was great. The other party at our table had two first-timers, ages 7 & 9 (guessing). They loved it. We took lots of food home. Basically Benihana lived up to our age old expectations.

Our server was attentive and helpful. At first, we were assigned a booth by the door which was too loud. A manager moved us to a nice quiet booth where we could actually have a conversation. The food was excellent and the price was good for the value. Suggestion: add a good Mexican beer like Dos XX.
