This was located in the parking lot of home depot. We waited about 25 min for the food which I thought was good and it made our food fresh! I got the new york steak and shrimp combo plate and my boyfriend got the trio new york steak, shrimp, and chicken combo plate and we both got it with chicken fried rice. I thought everything tasted so good and fresh, the rice gives off the garlic butter flavor that they have at benihana. It is pricey but I thought it was worth for it the flavors! We also got some diablo sauces and it also helped with the flavors as well! read more

Besthibachi - New York Steak & Shrimp Combination Plate & Filet, New York Steak, Chicken & Shrimp Trio Combination Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

I have driven past this food truck a bunch of times and decided to stop and try it finally. Check the menu and first thing I noticed was the prices, a little shocked. I couldn't believe how expensive it was. Still decided to try it, I ordered the 3 meat combo. Came with Chicken, steak, shrimp, steamed rice and veggies. It looks like a lot of food at first, but once you start eating it is mostly rice. Very little veggies. On to the food: Steak - ordered medium and it was med well, but that is expected based on it continuing to cook after being removed from the grill. Flavor was bland. Chicken - extremely dry and only lukewarm. I saw them pouring it from another container into the new orders. So the chicken isn't freshly cooked. Shrimp - decent size and like the steak had no flavor. But they seemed fresh. Overall I don't think the $49 dollars for the food was worth it. Don't let the amazing smell fool you to grab a bite to eat. I honestly had high hopes based on what I smelled. read more

Had an itch for some hibachi and found this online. Made the 25 min trip over from the other side of San José for this. I ordered chicken hibachi plate with fried rice. Waited for over 25 mins and i finally get my order. I go all the way home and only to find white rice, chicken and veggies. Not exactly what i ordered especially after waiting so efffing long for it. Make sure you check your meal before leaving. Cuz the wait wasnt actually worth what i got. read more

I had never tried this spot in San Jose before but I was very impressed and excited to learn about a new place that I'll be visiting consistently. The individuals who run the food truck were very kind and friendly. Steak and Chicken was very flavorful with a lot of seasoning and spices blended in with some out of this world aroma. I loved the texture of the food and the flavor of the rice, it didn't taste processed or overpowering. I'll be recommending this food spot to everyone I know! read more

Besthibachi - Filet Mignon and Chicken Benihibachi Combination Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm not a habachi person but this right here!!!! Fire!! This is literally the best habachi. Ive been to Benihana and it's super salty and such a hit or miss with the whoever cooks your food. This place is not salty at all, however their plates are quite pricey but any habachi place is quite pricey which is normal. This is my place for a good habachi plate!! Packed with good flavor!! read more

Besthibachi - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

They changed names but same location now since the last time. They gave you big servings for a big price. If def decent hibachi or I wouldn't have had it more than once. I do suggest you call and order in advance as the wait can be long. Overall I'd. Give them a B- . read more

Roadside truck. High prices and poor quality. Do not recommend. We were quite disappointed with the food.

Love this spot. Huge portions, food is super fresh, and the flavor is phenomenal. Steak is always cooked to perfection, their rice is buttery and delicious, and the crisp veggies on the side are so good. Sure it's a little pricey, but the ingredients are super fresh and you would pay the same (if not more) if you went to a sit down hibachi restaurant. read more

I guess I got lucky because the wait was very reasonable and I got exactly what I had ordered. Yes, it is surprisingly pricy (even considering the price of meat is really high right now) so minus 1 star, but it is also really good quality meat (the filet mignon is super tender) and the sauce is delicious! Everything was fresh, including the seafood, and good quality. The serving was large enough for 2 people or 2 meals. The smell of the food is insane, and it is a healthy choice with lots of vegetables and lean meats. It was a big hit when I arrived home with dinner. It didn't take too long to cook (and it was fun watching it be cooked on the grill) and the customer service was fine. I will definitely be a regular her read more

Frist time trying it and the rice is good but they put to much rice then anything else the chicken is good the meat is good and the vegetables where good the only thing I didn't like is that they make you pay extra for lobster and they only give you a little bit and I feel like that's not far to doo cuz your paying extra for that and they knew it was my first time so they should been been like it's a new person let's give them a bit more but No. if I do go again in the future I'm not getting lobster. read more

Besthibachi - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

Steak bowl with fried rice was delicious. Service was good, they asked me if I wanted sauce and gave me 2 different sauces with my order. I hope they do this for everybody, as the sauce is an important key to this meal. Someone told me they wait 45 minutes for the meal which is horrible but I only waited like 10-15 minutes. read more

The truck appears to have moved to the edge of the Target parking lot at 1811 Hillsdale Ave, San Jose, CA 95124. Their website is down, and their phone number doesn't work. Good luck tracking them down, but hopefully this helps someone in the future. Edit: You can text +1 (408) 876-2910 to get the location of the truck as it seems to vary these days. read more

Besthibachi - Location - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

Not as good as the real thing but definitely a great place to hold you over to the next birthday celebration lol. FYI - They have moved to the Home Depot parking lot! Tonight I ordered the chicken and shrimp fried rice which had a good amount of both. Pro tip is to order extra garlic butter. Placed my order at 5:50 and had my food by 5:57. Even after I was told it would be 20 minutes. (Please note: I have definitely come late night before and the wait was very long!) As long as you are able to work around the busy times it's totally worth the stop! read more

First of all don't believe 5 star reviews from fake profiles. This place is horrible. Their quality of food is poor Very overpriced. You are better of at Benihana's Horrible customer service Website service/payment option. Inaccurate time pickups Order chicken and steak combo with fries rice . More like a vegetable combo with 5 pieces of shrimp and dried up chicken. I do not recommend save your money go somewhere else! read more

Besthibachi - This is what $27 buys you lol - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

People are pretty harsh in their reviews. This isn't Benihana's and the price point and wait time are both in the upper range but those are the negatives. The flavor of the food is good, portion size is decent, and the sauces are delicious. We got steak and chicken with fried rice and veggies. It was enough to feed two people. The steak was more cooked than we wanted but not a big deal. If you want something filling and reminiscent of the restaurant style flavors this is a pretty good option. If you want the service and experience of a restaurant or are big on customer service this definitely isn't your kind of place. read more

Besthibachi - NY New York Steak & Chicken Combination Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

This place looks like Benihana, and intends to make food like Benihana, and has prices like Benihana, but is NOT Benihana. They took my order and afterwards said, "That'll be about 60-minutes." No warning, no cares. So I thought it was Benihana and I decided, "okay it's high quality, I'll wait." When I returned, I saw them teaching a young kid, probably 10-12 years old, how to cook my food. And how's he do? Well, not bad on the fried rice, but overcooked the filet that I ordered as medium rare, but ended up being well done. Bottom line: don't be fooled like I was. This place looks like Benihana, has a menu like Benihana, you pay Benihana prices, but you get something that's definitely short of Benihana quality. read more

The food is decent but the customer service is unorganized. Even if you text/order ahead you'll still be waiting over 45 minutes from the "estimated" time. They also skimp on the protein. Not worth the time and price read more

Ordered one time and they gave me the wrong order. I was really mad, the San Jose location is way better if you ever over there

I loved the food here, giving it a try one night. I ordered the filet mignon with chicken fried rice. It comes with veggies as well. The NY steak is good too, but prefer the filet mignon This place hits good, every time. Highly recommend. read more

Honestly I don't know what's up with the other reviews but I've been here and their Oakland location multiple times and have yet to have a problem. 4.5/5 read more

I came here at 11:30 and it says open till 3 am There is no one in sight around here this drive was over 10 miles and people said it was the best spot and now I can't even get food to eat extremely dissatisfied fix your location read more

Food is very delicious and customer service is excellent. I recommend to order ahead of time since they do get busy.

Ordered on Postmates .. they call this rare ????? This is very disappointing!! Very unsatisfied customer ! $50 a plate $70 including delivery SOOO NOT WORTH IT! DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE UNLESS YOU WANT OVER COOKED FOOD ! I like my steak med-rare but since they always like to over cook the meat I always order it rare . They don't usually fuck up this bad but this time it was just not edible . The steak this time was dry & over cooked totally ruined my appetite. WILL NOT BE ORDERING FROM HERE AGAIN ! read more

Besthibachi - Ordered on Postmates .. they call this rare ????? - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

Food is always on point, my go to order is the filet mignon with the fried rice. I always get like six Diablo sauces to go because they're amazing. read more

Went to pick up a order, told just a min its cooking now. 20 mins later asked again and they never even had the order and had to take it again. 20 mins after that asked again, they put the ordef behind everyone else instead of starting it when it was already late. So after 40 mins I was told ten more mins. read more

For $18... this is unacceptable. I wasn't expecting a whole lot but this is a joke for their prices. Disappointed. read more

Besthibachi - side order Filet Mignon - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

Its a food truck that puts out really yummy food, quickly, and reasonably priced! Plus, the guys working in there are all really cute, and friendly! read more

Hibachi food in a home Depot parking lot??? Amazing. The rice was butter delicious and the cooked my steak perfectly medium rare. Like the price is appropriate for what you're getting. New York steak box was about 20, and compared to tacos it's wayy different. If you have the money splurge on it, and shoot if I could I'd try lobster and scallops. Though that's pretty steep. If you go here it's very much a flex. On your quality of food and the cost. read more

I have eaten here about 3 times or so and every single time it has done it for me. So delicious and fresh. I have to be starving to finish the whole plate lol. Thanks to my bestie who showed me this truck. Service is 5/5 read more

Do Not eat here!!! These people have ZERO customer service and don't care!! I was literally the only person there and ordered a meal. The cooks were cooking and I thought my order was next to be cooked. As I watched the 2 cooks thru the window, they finished an order, bagged it, then cleaned the grill and then had a beer!! I was thinking wth?? The 2 cooks chatted for a bit and looked my way (one whole side of the food truck is a clear window) and finished their beer b4 starting my order. They had zero sense of urgency to cook my or any other orders. 28 min later(yes, I started timing them after they finished cleaning the grill) they finally finished my order. To top it off, I asked for med-rare and got medium (see pics). I too saw one of the guys go across the street to the liquor store for more beers, while I was waiting for my food. The beef was over cooked, the fried rice was ok but the veggies were good. Never again!!! read more

I paid $50 dollars for one meal that hardly had any steak, and literally Half of my plate was vegetables, I just don't understand why vegetables are so expensive, and on top of that I'm paying $50 dollars for a meal but I still can't even get one sauce instead i have to pay $0.75 cents for it, I would be little happier if I didn't get 5 little pieces of steak, horrible experience. read more

Saw the truck as we were driving by and wanted to give it a try. Tried we did, and it was a disappointment. Ordered online at 510pm, pickup up option was "ASAP". Upon ordering, pickup time given "5:51pm". Think allowing a specific pickup time would be easier becos 40mins for pickup doesn't sound like "ASAP". Items we ordered as follows : 1) NY steak x 2 (tough n overcooked. One was medium well, the other was medium rare. Both were just well done.), 2) Filet mignon with shrimp n another with scallops (son liked the scallops, overcooked on the shrimp and steak - medium n medium well, but both was well done instead), and 3) Shrimp plate (this one was ok). The sad part was the rice was not good, tasted like overnight rice and the quality of rice used was not good either. How do u not make rice well?? Fried rice however, was surprisingly tasty n good (thanks to butter n soya?!) veggie on the side was ok too. Total cost $148 (tips included) Went on time at 515pm to pick it up. The lady gave us our order. All good? No. Got home, checked, and not it. Ordered 5 items, only got 4. They left out d filet and shrimp. Packed everything back, went bk to the truck. Informed the lady n had to wait for our order. Noticed there weren't any sauces, so asked the lady for it. In short, my expectations for food truck is that since we do not get any service but paying almost the same price as eating in a restaurant, the food HAS to be good. Furthermore, considering this wasn't a cheap meal, we expected better quality food and service, (ie. Getting our order right would be great and less of a hassle for a start.) so for now, we'll just drive by whenever we see this truck and not do this again. read more

Food is mid. 6/10 it's nice because it's convenient. But the lady that takes the orders has the worst customer service. They can never get the orders right. We pay extra for sauces and they don't even give them to us. We call and tell the lady we live in gilroy and all she can say is you can come back and pick up sauces. No sorry , no refund on sauces, nothing. I spend $80 minimum every time I go here. They will never see another dollar of my money. read more

Everything was great Eddy made the party. Food was good just everything . Everyone had a great experience

Food is so Good and I love that I can get it the Grilled Deliciousness without having to go to the restaurant

This place is so good I don't know what the bad reviews are for (maybe the pricing) but this place is awesome. The guys are always so friendly. The food is bomb. If you go I recommend the steak and shrimp plate with fried rice and get a side of the garlic butter sauce. read more

So damn good. Open late for all you night owls. Definitely worth the price. Wait time is pretty long but overall worth it.

Just ordered this place through uber eats, expecting not benihana level, but atleast an average steak and shrimp plate. Unfortunately literally nothing was done, even remotely well. The steak was overcooked, not to the point of being overly dry but certainly not great. The seasoning on everything, was definitely lacking. The steak had a raw shrimp flavor in the background, suggesting cross contamination. The rice, was overcooked, and unseasoned, not much more to say. The shrimp wasnt awful, not completely unseasoned and probably the most edible thing on the plate other than the vegetables. Wouldve been fine quality wise if other elements were better. The vegetables however were also completely unseasoned, and not the greatest texture. Overall, you couldve added seasoning, and just avoided the steak raw shrimp flavor collision and I wouldve been pretty happy with it considering the time its available. Not even pricey or difficult changes. Just an overall lack of effort, and care. 2 stars because it was 1am and I didnt immediately throw it in the garbage to eat cereal instead. (Mightve also been the price) read more

IDK how this only has three stars this should be definitely a four-star hibachi place especially out of a food truck you can't go wrong I give 5 cuz The fried rice , is cooked to my liking every time extra garlic buttery can't miss steak and shrimp and lobster are cooked properly with the side of Diablo sauce now we're talking fire . I've had the Oakland and San Jose ones they're both consistent might be a slight weight because it's a food truck but foods great and I always leave Satisfied. If you're in a hibachi enthusiast like me try this place fried rice alone will have u coming back. And PS IF YOU GO TO A HIBACHI AND ORDER CHICKEN YOU did a Disservice to your self FROM THE GATE , Steak, lobster ,shrimp ,veggies is the way to go! read more

Takes a while but food is good. The service is so so you can barely hear the workers call out orders or take orders but other than that I recommend this place. read more
