It was about 80% cucumber with barely any crab, which wasn't what we expected. Unfortunately, the service really overshadowed the experience. We weren't greeted when we walked in, and things felt off from the start. We had a stroller with us, and instead of helping us find a comfortable spot, we were initially directed to a booth that clearly wouldn't work. When I asked about it, the waitress moved a couple of tables and pointed us to an end table with an uncomfortable chair. I politely asked to sit somewhere else, which felt awkward to even have to do. There were also a few moments that felt careless, like when she reached over my baby and stroller to grab a drink instead of going around. That's just not something you should risk. When I finished my salad, she told me to keep my fork rather than bringing a new one for sushi, which came off as odd. I also know how to use chopsticks so it seemed weird to assume that I didn't and would reuse my fork. The waitress didn't seem friendly or welcoming, and we didn't feel acknowledged at any point..even when we left, despite being the only customers there. It's a shame because the food, music, and overall vibe had potential, but the service really took away from the experience.

We got there at 5 o'clock on a Saturday night and it was full! We were greeted right away and were told it would be a five minute wait. Three more groups people came in after us within that five minutes! We were walked through the main dining room and brought to our table in a little side room with seating for only two groups. It was lively and busy in the main dining room, but very quiet in the side room. I would have loved to be seated in the main room where there was music and a little more life, but we were happy to get a table. My son had the Niku Soba Ramen, my husband had the Terriyaki Ton Ramen, and I had the Char Siu Donburi. All were fantastic, flavors were rich, and the portions were large. I took a third home for leftovers, and my son took half home for leftovers to share with his sister the next day. Even as leftovers, the food was delicious! We highly recommend and we'll definitely return.

Though the place isn't huge, it's arranged in a way that makes it feel super spacious. I'd say the food is fairly comparable to most other AYCE sushi places in the cities. I like the fried tofu in the way they do it here and the sashimi was good too. I will say the sushi roll cuts are a bit large, so eating a piece in one bite isn't convenient, and it falls apart when trying to take only a bite.

The staff were very friendly too and even got a chance to chat with a few of the chefs. Definitely planning to come back again in the future!

It's a small thing, but drinking flat syrup really sets a bad tone for the rest of the meal. We also tried the Bulgogi Fries. They were fine, I guess, but definitely not worth what they're charging. They are way overpriced for what you actually get. The food didn't get much better from there: Chicken Fried Rice: This was extremely "normal." There wasn't anything special about it, but for some reason, it had a weird hit of sugar in it that shouldn't have been there. Japchae: This was the real disaster. Japchae is not supposed to be sweet, but this version was sugary and cloying. It was honestly the grossest japchae I've ever had, and I've been eating that dish my entire life. Ultimately, the whole meal just felt like an exercise in late-stage capitalism: mass-produced, overpriced, oversugared and poor quality. People really shouldn't be eating this kind of food. Save your time and your cash and go somewhere else.

But I had a birthday voucher and a gift card, so we thought, why not give it another try. And wow. I feel like I have been missing out. The experience was so much fun. Our chef was fantastic and made the whole night feel special. It honestly felt like the perfect way to celebrate turning 38. And yes, at one point I was jokingly called out as "toxic", and to be clear, that was directed at me. All in fun! We ordered the steak/shrimp combo, which came with a shrimp appetizer and white rice. Of course we upgraded to fried rice, which feels like a must. Everything was really good and the chef did not cut corners at all, which we appreciated. My only callout is the cost. Even with the coupon and a $25 gift card, we still show how spent over $110 for two meals and one drink. I was honestly shocked. Compared to other places, it is definitely more expensive. Gratuity is automatically added. That said, the service truly was fantastic, so in this case it felt deserved. Even with the higher price, I would still go back. The quality of the experience made it worth it. One tip, especially in Maple Grove, make a reservation. We went on a Thursday night and it was busy.

It seems they've doubled the price of meals and aren't offering anything additional. In fact, they removed a lot of options from the menu and no longer provide the hibachi fried rice into your price. It's $8 extra to add fried rice!! Something that used to be included. That is criminal. The food quality also has gone down. The food was drastically under seasoned. Even my 8 year old niece said her corn needed salt. Honestly I will never go back to Benihana. It's a scam. There are way too many local hibachi places that are much better tasting and prices are more reasonable. The atmosphere was loud, which was to be expected.

However, it is a little on the higher end I ended up picking tuna nigiri, the pink panther roll which is pictured below and chicken fried rice. The tuna was very tender and fatty but the rice itself just failed apart so pretty difficult to eat it cleanly. The pink panther roll was exceptional and had an aioli sauce on top that complemented the roll well. The chicken fried rice was salty but the chicken was cooked to perfection. The dish itself presented really well but just really wasn't my favorite. The saltiness was just too overpowering. The service was good but not great. Was looking for the sever to check out for quite a while. The restaurant itself was super elegant and had many high end finishes. Overall, I would come again but I would try something else for my main dish.
