Editorial Review for Benihana – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
Benihana started out as a tiny four-table restaurant in New York City's theater district before becoming an international chain. Diners sit around large tables where chefs ostentatiously chop, slice, stir-fry and grill. Entree options are simple--shrimp, chicken, steak and scallops--and preparation is uniform. Every entree comes with a similar stock of sides: rice, onion soup, shrimp appetizer, iceberg lettuce drizzled with dressing, sauteed vegetables and green tea.

The nice thing is if you want sushi and someone with you likes "regular food" they have a good variety for both of you. The all-you-can eat is great if you are starving for 30.00 but not the highest of quality sushi. the atmosphere is decent but parking is a pain - gotta walk a little ways. Sunday the parking garage is closed but some on street available within a block or so. Not a #1 pick for sushi in SLC but if you have others with "regular food" needs consider Benihana.
Pros: all-you-can-eat
Cons: parking

This place does quite a business. Be sure to be on time if you have reservations. We had a group of 20 people, with several showing up late, and had to wait for an hour to get seated. That was partly our fault, and the place was very busy for 6 pm on a Saturday. Service was a bit slow at the beginning of our dinner, but the servers picked up the pace, after dinner started, and the second round of drinks showed up in a normal time frame. Food and drink were good, and the sushi was fresh. Our group had a number of sushi fans, and I didnt hear any bad comments about anything other than the initial wait. I would do dinner here again, and probably will in the near future.
