Decided to try this place on a Friday night after driving by many times. Parking lot spaces are limited I was lucky to grab one of the spaces in the front. I placed my order over the phone for the 2 item dinner with chicken and scallops and the plus fried rice for an additional 75 cents. Took the food home although it's not Benihana but it's very close and delicious. Pricing is affordable of course $14 plus for more than one item. Wish it was in a better location but hey it's a hidden gem. Give them a try . read more

This was my first time here. I purchased a Groupon for either $12 or $14, for worth $20 in food. This Groupon is a really great bye because the restaurant allows you to order anything you want and the only subtract the amount of the Groupon it's self. Didn't seem like there were any restrictions. I even ordered lunch special items Upon arrival, I wasn't sure which of the spaces in the plaza was the right one to go into. The windows are a bit tinted, which is good because it allows the customer privacy. The girl at the counter was super Nice and very helpful. I told her it was my first time and I wasn't sure what to order, and she told me to take my time and said it was no rush. I eventually ordered three lunch specials. Sesame chicken with fried rice, sirloin steak with fried rice, and combo plate with shrimp and sirloin steak and white rice. In addition, a side order of tempura shrimp and two small drinks. The lunch specials all came with a side salad to . Including the Groupon, I added about $21 more for everything. The sirloin steak has onions and mushrooms. The meet is juicy butt a little tough to chew. It's sirloin, so it's expected. The combo plate that comes with shrimp, is delicious and a good size. The plate comes with a generous amount. The sesame chicken was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think if I ordered it with light sauce then it would have been really good. I noticed the lunch special plates, the entrées were all placed on top of some zucchini and broccoli. The tempura shrimp is probably the best I've ever eaten. The tempura itself is very light and crispy while the shrimp is perfectly cooked! The side salads come with dressing, but I'm not sure what's in it. There might be ginger and a little Murin, but I am not sure. The soft drinks are great because they are super crispy. They even offer club soda too! Overall, the food is delicious and I've become a fan! Even though the sirloin steak turned out to be a little on the top side, I don't mind because I like that kind of texture in my steak. Definitely ordering the tempura shrimp again. I forgot to mention that there fried rice is really really good! It's simple but tasty and moist! The restaurant is very clean and cut that way. Credit cards excepted! read more

Their food is cool in all, but it will be a long time coming b4 I patronize this establishment again! I ordered 2 filet mignon scallop and shrimp plates! When I came to pick them up & drove back to my job. To discover they didn't put the shrimp on both plates! Needless to say I called them back & let them know what occurred! The girl that took our order confirmed with the cook! I personally heard the cook state "I FORGOT TO ADD THEM" So I drove back up there because it wasn't just my food! When I got their to get what they left off & asked the girl at the counter for a soda for my inconvenience of their error! I was thirsty from eating food without it being complete and I have to use my gas to drive back up there and they couldn't convince me with a soda! I wasn't asking for food, but the chick laughed in my face, slid my the food they messed up on & said have a nice day! In this time of del/take out on the rise they receive other customers that think it's ok to laugh jokingly at a customer cool! I don't & won't ever be spending my money their again!!!! read more

Good food here! I love how everything taste. No matter what you order you will be pleased!

The food is good, second night in a row ordered from them due to the curfew in LA. Unfortunately this will be the last night eating from them as we found a piece of plastic in one of the foods. I called to let them know & the young lady that answered kinda chuckled & said sorry. I'm a business owner & Id never laugh about a client having a horrible experience. read more

This place gets really busy on weeks nights. But, it's totally worth it! The FOOD is delicious!!! Some of THE BEST Teriyaki/ Habachi chicken in SoCal. The chefs/servers really know how to cook, and the main chef, runs the line cooks with precision and balance. You'll spend a few extra buck$ here compared to Panda Express next door. But, the quality of HANA is in no comparison. They offer a variety of different lunch and dinner specials occasionally. FOOD GOOD SERVICE GOOD 5*stars. I'll be back. ~CHRIS*STARR read more

Love this place! Feels like you're eating REAL food not just a processed mess. Veggies and beef are super fresh. Ask for extra garlic sauce for a world of flavor! read more

Ordered from Uber eats I ordered the dinner plate choose the filet mignon and scallops, and got the gyoza. I love anything dumpling type but the gyoza were just so delicious. Honestly this place surpassed my expectations. I'm from Compton and there's nothing else like this here. It taste just as good as Benihana or Tokyo wako. I am seriously impressed and will be ordering again late night when I want a delicious dinner but am too lazy to drive! read more

Benihana's on a budget, I think so! After all the anonymous posts on Instagram of their amazing food, I found it. The location is quite big but the parking is a struggle. It's in a shopping center so as you know it's the whole waiting game for a space. The food is definitely affordable, I got the chicken and shrimp dinner combo and it was $15-$17. The amount of food is definitely worth it. The wait wasn't long for the food at all. I would definitely recommend calling the worker in ahead of time, some very loud and rough young men and women came in yelling across the restaurant at each-other. Overall the food was great and the service was good, I would recommend to give it a try! read more

The food great. Called to order my food. The lady who answered the phone asked if I could hold. Of corse I said yes. Minutes went by I can hear them just talking and her asking someone that just come in if she was ready to order. 10 minutes go by I drove to the location and obviously she forgot about me... what kind of service is that?? It's not like you have a lot of people in line to order. The positive to all this is they made my food in one minute. ‍. NO APOLOGY. WOOOW read more

Food used to be delicious, not anymore. Prices have gone up, quantity has decreased and the worst part food has no flavor! Don't recommend. Not sure if they got new owners or new cooks but something drastically changed. This is my third time giving it a try since I noticed the food wasn't the same and I won't be going again. read more

Don't even go there the Chinese guy as a cashier can't even greet you back when you say hi has an attitude can't explain what you want to order and when you ask him he gets upset and you ask him for sauce he almost throws it at you didn't want to make a show but they really look like they don't even want to work and both with AirPods to not even listen to you when you talk to them read more

I had seen pictures of food from this place from my friend so I stopped in to try it. I drove all the way from Inglewood. IT WAS HORRIBLE. INEDIBLE. Avocado too ripe. Filet minion was tough and unseasoned. Chicken was tough and dry. I asked for white rice and didn't get that. It was a big huge portion of crap. I paid $24 dollars for it. What a big mistake. I'll NEVER go here again. NEVER. Extremely low quality. read more

Too ghetto, got my phone order wrong and the guy had an attitude. Go to the one in Huntington park for better service

This place has imo, gone down the drain since my last review, the same employees that were once here have long gone. I ordered picked it up, and went home, once I sat down to eat it, the food was bad. The white rice I ordered was hard, and crunchy, not soft and fluffy like it should be. It also had a strong taste of "sink water". I drove back to get my money back, because one bite was enough to lose my appetite. The people there were so rude and unhelpful, they left me there just waiting and waiting. They didnt want to give me my money back and said they would just fix me another plate, the owner kept telling me theres nothing wrong with the food and that he wasnt going to give me my money back because he wasnt going to be out the cost of my plate. After going back and forth he finally gave me a refund. read more

Good food, service isn't the greatest! I don't know if it's due to the Covid that the service is sub par or not but their were a lot of customers complaining about incorrect orders and the wait time for me was over 40 minutes and that was not including the 20 minute window I was given for my phone order. The cashier said when I arrived that they do not start preparing the order until the customer arrives which totally defeats the purpose of me calling in! I have been here before when it was not crowded and my service was good so maybe they cannot handle an influx of customers. read more

food was so good!!!!!! We got the hibachi steak and shrimp with fried rice covered in garlic powder. Only downside was it messed our our stomach's bad it was well worth the taste. Be prepared for the toilet next day! read more

The food was tasty hence the portion was not what I expected? Paying $33 with sides.. Ordered filet mignon, scallop (the combo plate) and added shrimp, she (Kelly) asked what type rice? I asked fried rice fried rice appeared like brown rice there was nothing in it... got only 4 shrimps side order and thin cut scallops.. not sure what went on with the cook Manny but clearly he heard me say it was my first time..felt some type of waythe Asian guy there appeared to be the boss seemed Money hungry watching over the cook n cashier make sure every quarter is received but small portions!! Not to customers satisfaction.. 1st n last!! read more

I have been waiting to try this place out for a while. I have to say, I wasn't impressed, I don't understand why they have the rating they have now. I ordered an avocado salad, and they called me back to inform me that their avocados were bad and to pick something else. First bad thing. I opted for the salmon salad. Well, what I received was something that resembled jerky, and some salty teriyaki drizzled on top of the salmon jerky, laid on a bed of spring mix greens. That's it. Ok, that's bad, enough right? Not quite yet. I ordered a side of shrimp tempura, and all I have to say is this. This place, avoid it. The pricing is garbage, the food was garbage. I wouldn't waste your time and money here. Anyone who has rated this spot over 2 stars doesn't have a palette for decent food. I'd be more inclined to eat that fast food Chinese they serve at Louisiana Fried chicken down the street, before I ever order anything from this place. The picture was the last straw. read more

The food here is excellent and they definitely do not skimp out on the portions. I always get the fillet mignon with chicken and shrimp and it NEVER misses. The "downside" I guess you could say is the price at around $20 or so (give or take) a plate of the good stuff but I mean let's be real it's teppanyaki and it couldn't get any cheaper. They have some fire sauces to put on your food and it just makes everything 3000 times better than it already is. I wish I could give it 4 and a half stars the only thing that prevents me from giving a 5 star rating is they need to spruce the establishment up a bit honestly but other than that you should definitely give the spot a try...really...it's freaking delicious. read more

Bomb food. The girl at the register. Does a great job. Taking phone orders and translating to the broken English staff.

DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE!!! I ordered the D12 (3 meat combo) through DoorDash and when I got my order, it was completely wrong!!! I called the restaurant to get some help and the guy that answered the phone was rude, and said he couldn't help me then hung up! Who does that!?!? read more

Do not eat here! This was my first & last time coming here! I normally don't write reviews but this place is not worth your time & money. The manager was very rude to customers & was not friendly. I ordered the combo plate, the fillet mignon, chicken & lobster. The fillet mignon tasted like new york steak, there was no season on anything expect for soy sauce. Also the manager was not clean, he would touch money & then continue to prep the veggies! Do not go here! Go To Benihibachi Instead! read more

So bomb and easy to order online and pick up. Manage your time wisely though because it can get really busy inside to pick up during the lunch/dinner rush. They should have more overall staff to accommodate the take outs and online orders. Otherwise delicious and they pack the plate and so fresh. Arrives home hot even though I live a couple miles away! read more

I just ordered my food and did not eat half of it. It is very salty I can taste the salt all around my lip. I am not sure if they change the way they cook their food but it doesn't taste good like before. read more

Great food, very much reminds me of Benihana without the high price! Would definitely recommend.

This place is like a cheap version of Benihana. No matter what the main spot will Always taste best. The food was good, would I come back? Mmmmm Maybe but I would rather pay a little more and have the real thing. Before coming I did read the reviews many said the place was dirty and yes there right. When we got their, there was no one and we waited like 20 mins for our food. A lot of people seem to do phone orders. If it's your first time and debating in coming here and never been to Benihana then yes come here but if you've had Benihana and love it then don't come. read more

Benihana's of Compton! Great food with a variety of choices to choose from (steak, chicken, shrimp, salmon...) I highly advised grabbing a plate from here just in case your in the area. read more

It's good but real greasy.. Had this a couple of times and got heart burn from the grease

Really good chicken & shrimp combo. Only suggestion is to add more teriyaki sauce. Definitely get extra on the side when you order. Food was fresh and cooked well/flavorful. Fried rice was really good too. For $16 the portion was good. Confused on the 10.25% tax they added to my order. read more

Great food big portions but if you've had izzy hanna then you can taste the difference once again great food but can't compare to izzy and its down the street from each other read more

Very large portion. Food is good, not the best but good. Miso soup was good. Service was okay, not great or bad... kinda like the food in my opinion. read more

The price were good for the portion. The down side was how the food tasted. I expected a lot after reading the reviews. I ordered the Hibachi Chicken. First off, the rice wasn't really good it tasted like they just added soy sauce in it. The meat was cooked perfectly but it lacked flavor. I ordered noodles with mine and wow there was no taste to it - so bland and it was so dry. read more

Very good food, full of flavor, huge portions and you can't beat the prices.... I am highly addicted!!

Won't be going again! The chicken wings had absolutely no seasoning (I'm not a person that likes salty food) they were hard, greasy, and under cooked in the inside. The owner claimed they had Thai tea... FAIL, what I got was watered down concoction. When I told him the tea taste like nothing but water, he looked at me on awe. He didn't offer my money back , instead of getting super angry I asked for a pepsi, and chose to write a review. Waste of $9.17 plus the $.50 for debit use when under $10. read more

The food was good and they gave you a lot especially for the price. Unfortunately because I ordered through Postmates they're we're unable to give me extra garlic butter because there's no way to charge my account along with my order. So If you want extra garlic butter don't order through Postmates. read more
