    They were not enjoying the experience lol
    Karma G.

    We came here for my mom's birthday dinner. We had a reservation but we weren't able to be seated until about 10 minutes after the reservation time. We chatted with the couple we were sat with for a while before our server greeted us. The server had a terrible attitude from the start of service with both my family and the other couple sat with us. My mother ordered a hot sake and at the end of our meal (I kid you not, we had all finished our food- which takes a while given the whole process of them cooking in front of you and all) she was given a cold sake after which she had to flag down the waitress to ask about her correct sake. Since we had literally all finished eating our meals, my mother just asked our server to take the cold sake away. The waitress was visibly annoyed at this and made it seem as if we were being cheapskates. To be clear, we came as a family of 5 and we all got steak dinners- we had no problem with spending but it's perfectly reasonable to not want to wait for a cocktail after you've had all of your food already. My mother had already asked for her sake multiple times throughout the meal and the waitress giggled as she apologized and continuously promised to bring the sake soon- this obviously wasn't true. Her unprofessional behavior was noted by both my family, and the other couple we were sat with, and they expressed their discomfort with the servers attitude. As for the food itself, the fried rice was delish and I loved the onion soup. Every other part of the meal was salty. I believe this was due to the sauce our cook added to the food (he may have added too much?). The ambiance was lacking as our cook was unable to do any of the tricks with his spatula or make his cooking seem impressive. He was very polite and apologized for his lethargy, saying everyone was tired but with the money spent for an experience, it's quite disappointing to be robbed of the experience. My mother was also supposed to hear a birthday song, but the singers never came even though the server very rudely said "Well if you want them (the birthday singers) to come righttt now I guess I can get them to come but usually they come after dinner " (she literally rolled her eyes) after my father requested that they sing to my mom. I would absolutely never come here again, and I wouldn't be surprised if they close soon.

    This was midday brunch, and I got the lunch bowl with colossal shrimp. My friend got the Yakisoba noodles with steak. First let start with the service. It was top-tier. We had several people checking on us, including our server who was fabulous. The atmosphere was quite nice even though there were other people around, it was still a very nice vibe. Let's get into the food. I was told that vegetable tempura comes with the lunch boat and it did not, the shrimp was just a tad salty, I switched out the white rice for fried rice, which cost an extra $6.50 but it was flavorful, the cream cheese sushi rolls were really good. My friend's plate (not pictured here) looked as if it was slung together, they liked the steak (and that's was about it) and they ask for udon noodles, but was recommended the Yakisoba instead, overall a C on the food, but an A+ on customer service.

    This location has really gone downhill. The hostess was extremely rude and all the staff were borderline rude with the exception of the cook. He was super friendly and nice, but the food was just ok. This place is extremely expensive, but the food quality does not match up with the price.

    Went to Benihana expecting a nice experience but it was honestly a mess. We were seated late even though we had been waiting, and the waitresses came off really rude from the start. After we got our drinks, we didn't see our waitress again for a long time and had to ask for her. I ordered the steak hibachi, but by the time it came out I didn't even want to eat it. I ended up packing it up and leaving. On top of that, the staff started arguing with each other while we were still sitting there, which was super uncomfortable. It made the whole vibe awkward and unprofessional. When it was time to leave, it took forever just to get the check. Definitely my first and last time coming here.

    I placed an order for a family-size chicken and rice that clearly stated it feeds a family of four. When my son picked up the order, it was only a single serving. I immediately called and spoke with Manager Nick at 6:15 p.m. He agreed that a refund would be issued and told me he would call back with a confirmation number. I did not receive a call back, so I had to call again at 6:50 p.m. At that time, he stated he was "filling out the paperwork." I asked how long the process would take, as this should be a straightforward correction. I informed him I would call back at 7:30 p.m. to receive my refund confirmation. This situation was frustrating and inconvenient, especially after already receiving the incorrect order. I simply expect accurate orders and timely follow-through when a mistake is acknowledged.

    I've been to Benihana several times in the metro Atlanta area & have always enjoyed the experience.. this was not that. I sat at the bar which was filthy and not a great sign. The bartender was mid. Drinks were mid & so was the food. When my food came out, I was swarmed by gnats & completely lost my appetite. Overall not worth the pri

I have tried the seafood fried rice, pink lady sushi roll, spicy kimchi salad and tuna tartar. The fried rice was so good that I ordered it both times! The sushi/tartar was super fresh. The tartar was so creamy and delicious. I definitely will be ordering that again. The kimchi was also very good. Overall, I have had a positive experience. I plan to actually visit sometime soon. Can't wait to try some other menu items.

The fried rice is what I remember! Recently Stix's fried rice has seemed to have gotten way more basic but Osaka has really stepped theirs up!! For example, Osaka uses seasoned butter, vegetables, egg, soy sauce, and chicken in their rice. Stix only uses egg and soy sauce now. The difference is very clear and I now prefer Osaka! I also LOVED Osaka's sushi. Talk about having sushi for days- my only complaint is I wish they'd make it easier to tell which rolls are deep fried and that they'd make the menu easier to open. I don't mind a huge menu, but one that I have to spread over two seats is not good. I have to admit, the chicken hibachi wasn't as good as I was hoping for, but I really liked the shrimp. I wish they had some spicy sauce besides sriracha to add to my food, like chili paste. But I guess I'll just get shrimp next time instead. The sushi though was great! I may also just stick to getting sushi here instead of anything else. The Yamabuki rill is so good but it's so big it's difficult to fit into my mouth in one bite.
