    Love the gluten free menu options, my daughter had the Capellini al Pomodoro and said it was delicious. I had the beef tenderloin filet with wilted spinach and potatoes and it was sublime, the steak was cooked perfectly and had a great sear and tons of flavor. Great service from EB (Ibraham)!!! He did great with his recommendation for the GF meal for my daughter.

    Dined with two children so the booth was invaluable!! Food was outstanding. Lasagna, spaghetti with chicken, and salmon each had their own special flavors. Our server was very nice but overwhelmed with big tables.

    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.
