Benihana

We came here for dinner on a vacation at the start of September. We were a party of six & we had a positive experience here. We were lucky and didn't run into any issues with our dinner here, everything was cooked just right and it was a fun experience with family. I loved how all of the decorations throughout the restaurant looked, they did a beautiful job.

We've eaten at Benihana's 20+ times, mainly in Chicago. This location inside West Gate is their largest and it's beautiful However, underwhelming. First, the property changed parking, so you're in a garage and they charge. Service was ok. The server didn't check on us much at all. I was extremely disappointed to learn you have to pay $1 for a small condiment cup of their yum, yum sauce. It's not a complementary sauce (go figure, since it's such a popular one). I've never had to pay in the past, crazy. The person cooking didn't do much, although he was friendly, it was bare minimum. Our reservation indicated a birthday, yet they didnt acknowledge it. Also, when making reservation online via open table you have to give credit card. Suprised they do that for a place like this. I find this more common in pricer places. They do take the $30 birthday certificate if M to F and not a special/deal. The food was tasty and had no issues. Would go and see if service and experience is better, since food was good.

First time at this Benihana and everything was amazing. Food was delicious, customer service was a 10/10. The aesthetics of the restaurant were impressive. I would definitely recommend reservations so you don’t have to wait.

We were pushed out and not given time to eat. The waiter came and took our ice cream flavor orders right after the chef left the table and came right back with it. It was extremely disappointing, especially since it was my birthday dinner. The location on the strip is much better.

Celebrated my friends bridal shower here last night and our server was really rude, when we asked for refills of our drinks. Other than that the restaurant was absolutely beautiful. The nice man who made our food was awesome..

We have eaten here frequently since my husband and I love teppan style food. Always a good show by the chefs at our table, excellent waitresses/waiters, and food staff. Reservations work best when we go here. If you don't make a reservation, sometimes the wait can be over an hour. Hostesses are pleasant and do their best to accommodate all guests. This is one of the largest benihana restaurants located in Las Vegas.

First time coming here for my husband and I. The service was pretty good. A little hard to hear our host but nevertheless she was very sweet & did a good job hosting. The chef was nice and also did a performance but we asked for our steak Medium and he cooked it well done. Overall the experience was good but the food I can say was subpar.

Wonderful food and very entertaining chefs! We made a reservation and pre ordered online which saved a few dollars.

I had dinner with friends on 02/15/25. There were four (4) of us. We all ordered a bit different, but here is what I noticed and recorded. Service was fast, friendly and accurate. The steak was choice or prime meat and it looked excellent. It was not cheap and was of very good quality. The steaks were thick and juicy. They were cooked right. We all ordered Medium and that's exactly the way they were prepared the first time around. The shrimp were big and not overcooked. This is something I watch for when using a flat grill. The chef prepared them just right and they were great. Chicken is hard to mess up. It was not overcooked, but done just right as well. Benihana is NOT cheap. The cost for 4 people, including non alcoholic drinks, a 6 course serving for all, steak, seafood, chicken, Miso soup, salad and ice cream, including tip was $340.00. Overall, our experience was most satisfactory. The staff were very attentive and didn't miss a beat.

I haven't eaten in a Benihana in years. In fact, the last time I did, it was this location (when it was a Hilton) with a group of women friends who were spending the weekend. But I have eaten at Ohjah numerous times. They are very similar. I think the success of the meal (at the communal table with your own "chef") depends, to a great extent, on the chef. Andy got us started; we thought he was our chef. But he wasn't. He turned us over to James who we could barely hear. Neither my husband nor I heard much of what James said. The process is efficient. Soup good. Salad good; dressing great. James got our orders correct, as far as I know. But neither the meal nor the experience were worth the cost. Try Ohjah. They have three locations in the LV Valley. I hard James mention his wife. I'm not sure exactly what he said because I couldn't hear him. Shortly thereafter, he mentioned his girlfriend which got a laugh from some of the men at the other end of the table. Not so much from we old married couples. Dinner for two, with tip, was $270! Definitely not worth the price. The meal includes soup, salad, rice, very few grilled vegetables, your entree, plus a scoop of ice cream. Liquor is extra, of course. There really wasn't much atmosphere. The chef didn't speak to be heard. The food was good and the process efficient but the cost was way too high for a meal that was good but not great and an experience that was not memorable.

3.5/5 Maybe because I came with no expectation, the experience wasn't too bad. It was entertaining! The place is huge with so many hibachi grill tables. You walk through the made up garden with waterfall to get to Benihaha's space. For the food, we ordered Sumo Rolls and Spider Rolls and Vegetable Tempura as additional order. They weren't horrible, not great but edible. For the Hibachi course, we shared one set with Chateaubriand and Lobster. It was plenty of food for sharing. My favorite was the shrimp appetizer, it was tender. My least favorite was the fried rice, it was bland. Felt very thirsty after the meal so expect MSG symptoms.

One of the poorer visits to a Benihana. This causes me not to go to any other.... For a long time. Drinks are expensive. Salmon was$43. Benihana delight was $49; fried rice was an extra $9.

I was having a bad pain day so I went to dinner in my wheelchair. I'm glad that Benihana Village in the Westgate Hotel was wheel chair accessible. We had made reservations a couple of weeks ago since this was my birthday dinner with my hubby. We were greeted by three friendly hostesses at the podium. When we checked in for our reservation they asked whose birthday it was and offered us a complimentary birthday photo. They have a photo spot with wire kimonos as a back drop. It was a nice touch. I was having a bad pain day so I was in my wheelchair so they had to take us through the back to get to the our table. The rest of the Village is ADA accessible except the last few steps to go up to the Teppanyaki Room. I ordered the Land and Sea which includes soup, salad, steamed rice, shrimp appetizer, filet mignon, scallops and ice cream for $59. They gave me two salads because I couldn't have the soup due to my gluten allergy. They also cooked my entree first to avoid cross contamination and cooked everything with gluten free soy sauce for me. I couldn't have the dipping sauces but I didn't miss them because the chef prepared everything so flavorful. The temperature of my steak was perfect and melted in my mouth. The shrimp and scallops were amazing as well. My husband ordered the Hibachi Supreme which included soup, salad, steamed rice, shrimp appetizer, 8.5 oz Chateaubriand, Lobster Tail and ice cream for $75. He upgraded to chicken fried rice for $9. He said it was delicious. For dessert I chose green tea ice cream and my hubby chose the rainbow sherbet. They brought mine out with a Pocky sticky and candle. I gave the pocky to my hubby. It's not gluten free. It was great green tea ice cream. No one sells good green tea ice cream like they have in restaurants. I had a birthday certificate for $30 off which was nice. Even with the certificate after tax and tips it was just shy of $190 for two of us but it was worth it. The food was great and the service was great. The village is absolutely beautiful too. It's a great place for a special occasion.

My friend took me to dinner for my birthday last night and the experience was awful. I wanted to go to the Westgate location because I loved how beautiful it was inside. While it was still beautiful, it was remodeled since my last visit and no longer looks like a beautiful Japanese village. The tables are too close together and the teppanyaki area felt crowded. We waited quite a while for someone to take our drink orders after we were seated and then another wait for our drinks. There was another wait for someone to take our orders. It wasn't long after that for our chef to come out. Our chef Michael was okay, but nothing special and he was light on the seasoning. Immediately after the food was prepared and our chef left the table we were asked what flavor ice cream we wanted. The worst part happens next... The server brought our ice cream right after he got the flavors from us and our plates were still full of food! There were three groups of people at our table and we all felt rushed. We stopped eating our dinners and ate the ice cream before it melted. We were brought to go containers while we were eating the ice cream. This is not an inexpensive restaurant, my friend and I both ordered the Benihana Trio and upgraded to fried rice. It is unacceptable to not allow patrons time to eat their meals. I ended up taking 75% of my meal to go, it is not going to taste the same when I reheat it for dinner tonight. The experience was awful and this location should be ashamed of treating their customers this way. My favorite location is on the strip and I have never had a bad experience or anything like last night at that location. I won't stop going to Benihana because of last night, but I will say I feel like my friend was ripped off. At least our $195.00 tab was reduced to $165.00 with my birthday coupon, but it didn't come close to making up for the poor service and bad experience.

Absolutely one of my best times at Benihana We are on a mini vacation and decided to have dinner here and it was amazing Our chief June was funny, friendly and a great chief everything was cooked perfectly! Absolutely amazing everything was delicious very flavorful cooked to perfection Waitress was great very attentive The restaurant is beautiful decorated with lots of colorful flowers Great time not one complaint Highly recommend this establishment to everyone

Probably one of the most gorgeous Benihanas I've ever seem. Unfortunately, the service and food don't measure up. The hostesses were rude, but the waiters and chef were funny and kind. The food was lacking in flavor. Being a regular hibachi goer, it was odd to see them deviate from the typical recipes and the weirdest part was that they didn't offer yum yum sauce at all. Pretty disappointing, especially at the pricepoint.

This was the nicest Benihana's that I have ever been to, and the food was amazing with a great chef

Eric was an awesome and personable server! great talking and involving customers in the experience! 10/10 wagyu steak highly recommend

we were a bit early, so thought we could have a drink at the bar. however, we were not invited to sit there and wait, and ended up sitting awkwardly on the foyer bench for 10 minutes. here's a warning - the fried food smell attaches itself to you the moment you walk through the door. we were taken to a communal table and given warm water. was this to drink? or was it wash your fingertips? i went with the former, hoping i was not creating a faux pas. i did not hear gasps from other patrons, so i continued to drink my warm water. our waitress was a delightfully sweet woman. crystal? it was kind of hard to hear, since the tables surrounding us were well lubricated and all you could hear were large grill frying sounds and high pitched shrieks. crystal brought us our drinks, i had a pinot noir, my lovely date had a heineken. crystal took orders from everyone at the table (eight people). our chef was fine, told a few lame jokes, cooked our food to order. food was okay. not great. your fried rice gets cold while you are waiting for your meat of choice. i asked for some chili sauce, but never received it. the food is very bland. no real taste. however, my second glass of wine helped me forget the dullness of my food. you have no choice but to actually meet complete strangers at your table. four of them were fine, but the couple on the other end refused to talk converse. i actually think the boyfriend would have joined in the bland eating and hearty drinking, but his girlfriend was a stone cold witch. i can't prove it, but i actually felt the temperature at the table rise the moment they left. i did not take pictures of our chef, since it felt kind of stalkery. and none of the food, since it was so boring, and, it's difficult to present food in an attractive manner when you are serving eight people with an oversized spatula. this has got to be one of most vacuous reviews i have ever written. i'm upper key embarrassed with the lack of content, snarky remarks, and meandering drifts off topic.

Don't waste your time or money Geisha house for this kind of food is much better the whole experience.....The worst service ever. Got order wrong and half our order was somewhere else and the cart sat for a half hour till chef found our order Borrowed fried rice from the table next to us Forgot mushrooms till he was cleaning then dumped Tray on grill Not cooked thru Then rushed us Absolutely Horrible food and service Shame for how much it was Will Tell everyone NOT to waste your money Geisha house soooooo much better!

We haven't eaten at a Benihana in years so decided to try this one since we have seen it multiple times when we attended shows here at the Westgate. I will say overall we were very disappointed with this reaturant since it did not live up to our expectations, and we will probably not eat at another Benihana again mainly, as another reviewer pointed out, there are far better and less expensive habachi resturants in Las Vegas area. We had reservations and got seated within 10 minutes. I will say that the inside of the resturant is beautiful and staff is overall friendly. The first thing that we noticed, along with everyone at our table, was that the resturant was way too cold and it made out entire dining experince simply miserable (one lady at our table kept her hoody sweatshirt on the entire time and her hands in her pockets except occassionally when she ate a little). It seemed like they were also a little short staffed this evening since it too a while to get our orders taken, drinks, soups and salads and eventually for our chef to come out to start cooking (overall time from hostess check-in to when we walked out was well over 2 hours). We were also a little confussed about the green tea and wondering if you had to ask for it specifically since that is what my wife ended up doing (the menu says it is included with meals but it was never brought out to anyone else but her). The other problem I really have with is the upcharging for fried rice and yum yum sauce which are included at other habachi resturants ($11 up charge for fried rice is just crazy since that dish was always one of the givens of habachi styled dinners). Overall, the amount of food you receive is good for the price (many people took food with them in go containers). The taste of the food we ordered was also good (the soup, fried rice, shrimp and filet mignon). A few other things we were quite dissappointed with was that special occassions are not really hyped up well, conversation between staff and customer could be better to make dining experience more interactive and fun, and habachi chef needs to make sure he cooks all items at the right time (our chef had mushrooms left at the very end which he cooked by themselves and dished out to everyone - I believe they were supposed to be included in the vegetable side earlier in the meal). The resturant never warmed up, all of the other customers left our table and didn't wait for the ice cream they ordered, and we were still chilled, for at least half an hour. after left the resturant into the casino area. I would have rated this resturant at least 3 stars, but my wife also got sick later in the night which we believed was from either her scallops or unclean dinner ware. Overall, one of the worst experiences we had at a what is supposed to be considered a finer resturant.

We came to Benihana because the heat would allow us to go outside . There was a 25 limiter wait upon arrival with no reservation. That was fine! The aesthetics of the restaurant were beautiful. We ordered hibachi . It was great! Good entertainment and fun, my daughter celebrated her birthday again. No pics of the hibachi .. I got caught up in the moment .

Haven't been to a Benihana in years and this location did not disappoint. The ambiance is beautiful and calming when you enter. We were a party of 2 so we were seated with 3 other parties to fill the 6 remaining seats. We chose our entrees and started conversating with one another. This is a great way to meet new people. Our cook came, he was humorous and entertaining and as the courses came out each were delicious with large portions. The fuji apple sake was smooth and delicious as well. And for dessert we chose a green tea and sherbert ice cream. Everything was well and to our liking. Absolutely no complaints and highly recommend.

Gross, terrible, do not risk it! I d say McDonalds is much better and safer. Service was poor, waited for 15 mins to be greeted by waitress, should have left then. Food was cold, lacked flavor, and overall not edible.

Chef forgot to give us the sauces He also forgot to use sugar and only used soy sauce as flavor so the food next day tasted so salty it almost bitter. Have birthday discount so so the bill before tax is $60 and gave $16 tips the waitress guess was not happy and said my photo didn't turn out but gave picture to the other customer. This Benihana is right across from Wynn hotel and we were there on 1/9 around 8pm. He also cooked food out of order appetizers at ur end sad

Great visit for some birthdays while visiting Las Vegas. We had a party of 7, which is the perfect amount to fill our own table at a grill. Our reservation was for 7:45 p.m., but we arrived early, they were able to accommodate us early. Everything from beginning to end was perfect, the service was amazing, the food spectacular, and the location itself is just gorgeous. Conveniently located inside the Westgate on the strip. I had the steak teppanyaki, and my husband tried and loved the Ahi tuna. For drinks we had the Tokyo mule, and an old-fashioned. My friend had a Mai Tai and the chicken. I absolutely recommend this location for a special dinner off the primary part of the strip, and you can take the monorail to get there.

Went to Benihana at the Westgate in Las Vegas. What a beautiful environment to have dinner. But unfortunately, that is about all. One of our guests is handicap and walks with a cane. Yet they gave us a table up many stairs. It was very difficult for him to manage that. The food is way too high priced for what you get. And what you get is bland tasting food. The cook had a few good jokes but couldn't deliver them with any enthusiasm as it seemed like he has done this way too long. He developed very little repour with our group. The other problem was he could not remember what I ordered. I ordered filet mignon with chicken. He ended up giving my filet mignon to someone else and I got his habachi steak. When I asked him if I got the filet mignon he lied and said I did. But I watched carefully how he cooked it and he didn't. Plus, I asked for it be teriyaki style and he didn't even add any teriyaki to the food as it was cooked. As I got my chicken (first), I asked if he forgot the teriyaki and he squirted some on my chicken. He completely forgot the steak with the teriyaki. I will not go back to Benihana ever again. Too expensive, with bland tasting food, and lousy cooking.

Such a beautiful and large Benihana!! We came here for my boyfriend's birthday dinner and had the best time. The service was great and quick and the staff were all very friendly and accommodating. We loved the soup and salad provided and felt our hibachi was cooked very well too! I know sometimes hibachi can feel inconsistent, but we felt our food was cooked consistently and very delicious! However, we felt the drinks were just subpar. Our dinner came with ice cream which was very good and they even brought out my boyfriend extra ice cream for his birthday! Overall, we enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back!

10/1224, 730pm reservation for 4 Let me start by saying that we were late. Some of the party arrived at 7:45 but our reservations was at 7:30 and the others didn't arrive until 8:20. The greeters were dismissive and rude. We should've left then. The greeter said they will fit us in and they didn't seat us for 45 mins - 1 hour later. While waiting to be seated, I sat in the front area near the greeters. I overheard their interaction with others customers of different ethnicity that were walk ins with the same number of people in their party, they were treated with courtesy and seated before my party. The poor service continued.... I asked the greeters to take our picture as they volunteered to do for other clients. The greeter didn't acknowledge my request just walked away. I followed her to podium and she grabbed the camera and quickly snapped a single shot, not offering a preview as I saw her offer to every other customer. I asked how will I get the picture, she murmured something inaudible. We were seated by someone else at a table with two other couples and there were four in my party. The server came over and started asking about our orders, we are black. One of the couples was black and there was a white couple. She asked each of us if we are paying with separate checks. She then went to the other black couple and asked them if they were going to pay with separate checks and they said no, but she did not ask the white couple if they were paying separately. The poor service that we received from the greeters continued at the table right away. After that the server took our drink orders and appetizers order. We received our drinks fairly quickly within 10 minutes. The soup was served within another 10 minutes. The chef came over to start the Teppan. The veggies and rice were served, BUT STILL NO APPETIZERS, NO SALAD or NO server. A busboy came to serve water and we asked the busboy to send over the waitress. The meat was now on the grill. The appetizer finally came, BUT STILL NO SALAD. We asked the busboy to please send the waitress and he took our next drink orders. When the waitress came, she said that they were busy and the kitchen is closing. We asked for many things, condiments, SALAD. She said she will bring them back. She didn't apologize or show any empathy. The meat was served by the time she brought the salad. Never apologizing for the TERRIBLE service. We asked for ginger and wasabi, but the waitress said the kitchen was closed. My niece told the waitress that it wasn't OUR fault that they were running behind. My niece told the waitress to bring wasabi & ginger or BRING THE MANAGER. Although, we were late for our reservations, they continued to seat parties in our area so obviously the kitchen wasn't closed. We never received the courtesy photo from the greeters and our waitress offered no suggestions nor apology regarding the photo. It was so frustrating that I didn't enjoy my meal. This is a very expensive restaurant and was SUPPOSED to be treat for my party. The service and entire experience was just awful!

Been to this place around 20 times and enjoyed every moment. One of my faves in the chain. Absolutely the best ambience in the chain. Located inside the Westgate (ex Hilton) Casino in their Asian Village. While dining here you feel like you are on your own little world and not on a casino property which is a plus plus. Everything from check in, to hostesses, to waitresses, to oldest and most tenured person working for Benihana to cooks to everything is great. I can't give 5 stars for not a 5 star meal but everything else is a 5 star experience. Ate like 90% of the menu and never had a bad meal. This is the Benihana to eat at. Recommend and especially for family events.

ShowTime!!! Yummy hibachi steak and shrimp! The rice is delicious as well! I had the steak and lobster and it was good! My monkeys were upset that there was no rainbow sherbet but the surprise anniversary sundaes made up for it! Wish our guy would have done the train whistle-maybe next time.

It's Benihana so you know the drill. This location is in the Westgate hotel and the food and service was excellent. The sushi was marginal but the 5 course meal with scallops and filet was outstanding.

Stopped by this location today usually go to fashion show mall ( have never had an issue there ) This weekend we stepped in to have dinner and were greeted as usually and having our multiple coarse dinner. I ordered the rocky's choice and my gf ordered the emperors feast. The server was cooking a filet on the top and it was one of the last steaks so we figured it was going to my gf when he placed regular steak on her plate. I brought it up and questioned that if he had made a mistake and he replied with no I gave you Filet minon keep in mind we frequent steak houses and stop by benihanas atleast every other month. I believe he was shook up from earlier in the dinner when he placed mushrooms on the grill even though he was notified that there was a person with a severe allergy to mushrooms there.

The food is really good and our cook Mr. Troung was very funny and made it fun. I have allergies to shrimp and the last thing he made was shrimp. The service was exceptional and her name is Leanna the ambiance is very pretty and nice and a fun place. Love it! We will come back again. Thank you

Had a great time here with the family for dinner on our last night of vacation. The Hostess were courteous, the waitstaff provided everything we needed and Chef Edwin was funny, engaging and cooked up the deliciousness. The atmosphere was load and lively. We were seated in front of the grill. To get started, for a cocktail I ordered an Old Fashion with Toki whiskey, so good. Next, was the Alaskan Rolls, prepared to please. For dinner was the colossal shrimp with the hibachi chicken rice. I was so full. Such an awesome time.

The service at this location is terrible, I ordered from Uber eats and they completely forgot half of my order. I ordered 4 soups and tempura shrimp. They packaged 1 soup and tempura shrimp. I called and informed them of the matter, the hostess hung the phone up on me. I called back and she apologized and hung up on me again. I then called a third time and spoke to whom I was told was the manager and that she couldn't do anything, then put me on hold to then tell me that I can come in and get the other 3 soups. After I explained to her that I was very sick and couldn't drive, which is why I ordered through the delivery app, she proceeded to tell me that there wasn't anything she could do and that I needed to figure out if I was going to come in or not. I asked to speak with someone else, who then told me I would receive a refund. 1 week later and I still didn't receive a refund and I called and spoke with another "manager" who then told me they don't do refunds for uber eats and that there was nothing I could do. 2 weeks after that I went in person to the restaurant and I explained to a "manager" what happened and was told that I should've came in and there wasn't anything that could be done. This is how they treat their customers. I've been a loyal customer for over 15 years and this location is terrible when it comes to CUSTOMER SERVICE!

This will forever be the best Benihana. The ambiance is so much different and better at this location. Leanna K. Was an absolute great server. She was quick with service and made sure our waters will filled the entire time. Was very thorough about what to expect as well. Our chef was very passionate at what he did and made amazing food for us. We were able to try the Shrimp hibachi, chicken teriyaki, and steak teriyaki. All really big meals that we were able to take home and enjoy a 2nd time. Will definitely be going back.

Not only the biggest Benihana in the world but the best hands down!!!! I live in Chicago and the one downtown is horrible!!! So this just rejuvenated my faith in the restaurant.

Staff and Chef perfection!!! Beautiful restaurant and the food amazing!! And that mustard sauce.... Soo yummy

Super cute waiting area!! Loved the Ambiance it was their best feature. Service was good everyone was dressed up in Japanese feng shui. Our hibachi chef wasn't that amusing and towards the end he kind of Just died out. The food was was bland and came out in sections which was off putting, because having your rice, veggies and meat come at different times and not paired together was a disappointment. Our party was celebrating 3 birthdays lady in another party was celebrating 1 birthday and the server only came out with one candle for me and sang only for me which made me feel weird. Sushi was very appetizing but that's all that I can rave about.

Beyond happy with this restaurant! We celebrated our dad's birthday and my twin brother and his new wife's marriage and had the pleasure of having Tommy as our cook, the waitress was a delight and the food was beyond delicious! Would definitely be back as soon as we can! :) nonstop laughing and great atmosphere. 10/10

I was here for a friends birthday and in my opinion the food was just ok. The chef was good, he put on a good show, but the food was not anything that would cause me to rush back here. There are hibachi places with better quality and cheaper prices. The service was good, the ambiance of the place is over the top, meaning I loved it, I just wish the food would have delivered the same. With this being said, I recommend you try this place and who knows, maybe you'll have a better experience. So, try this place, if you like hibachi just be aware there are places with cheaper prices but give it a try and leave your review.

This location is lovely with beautiful Japanese-esque landscapes. My girlfriends made a reso here for my birthday, and our server Roger was top-notch. He was incredibly patient, respectful, attentive and so kind. We had a show scheduled after dinner, and because timing was becoming tight, the cook and staff accommodated us - they cooked mine and a friend's gluten-free/vegetable oil-free order in the back while our main cook Heygo joyfully prepared everyone else's orders in front of us. We were given the checks while dessert (a surprise bday cake they lit, sliced and served) was eaten, and they did their best to make sure we could get out sooner than later. Vegetable fried rice was a delicious upgrade. Salmon was delicious. Heygo was great-humored, even as he knew he would be rushed to serve our food before our show. Thank you Benihana for a fun and memorable birthday dinner!

Not really a fan of Hibachi style Jap resto but this location i love. Apparently my colleagues loves this resto, i thought at first its location but its the food & service. Make sure you make reservations and your party is complete otherwise they won't seat you. Their sushi/sashimi choices are good and the taste is phenomenal. I love their fruity sake; you won't even feel the alcohol. The steak & Lobster tail is a fave. make sure you tell them how you want it cooked. the fried rice is a must! it is sooo good and goes with everything. leave room for ice cream, your meal comes with it.

Food was bomb!! Took us in at 545 for a 6 o'clock reservation. Waitress never asked if we needed refills which was a bummer. Portions were huge!

Ambiance: Great! The place is beautiful, the lighting not too dark and not too dim either. Beautifully decorated, I was impressed. There was even an elevator! Service: Subpar. Chef is great! Server just ok. Japanese Hot Tea never came out. For this price point, I think we should get private rooms. I was lucky to be sharing the table (me p of 4) with another lovely couple celebrating 31 years of marriage. The other table opposite of mine were doing some pda which I imagine would be very uncomfortable with the family theyre sharing the table with. It was even uncomfortable for me to watch... Food: It was 5/10. Playing with the food and giving a good show was great. Taste wise, not so much. But taste was never really what Benihana is about. I knew that coming in so it wasnt a problem for me. If youre planning your day: the meal took 1h30min. Tip: ask for melted garlic butter with a little bit of soy sauce (it gets salty) but its definitely better than the ones they give you before the meal.

We had a great time here last night great food the best wait staff , very entertaining chef!

The person who was cooking our food was awesome. The ambiance was warm and friendly and we were lucky the other people in our table were friendly. It's a "must do" once experience. The food lacked flavor. It was too bland. They were good at first with the service, with filling our waters but right as the person was finishing cooking our food and collecting his little cart, they forgot all about us, until it came time for the bill.

It was a fun experience. Food was good . I hate that they charge so much for the pictures. It can get expensive here but we had a great time.

It's like walking outside in a Japanese garden, very nice scenery, plenty of place to take group pictures or family pictures. The food and staff were great, no disappoints here and expect to have some food left over. I was really impressed compared to other Benihana restaurants. You really need to make an appointment because it does get busy here especially on weekends.

Food was okay, I had ordered the spicy hibachi shrimp, it does come with colossal shrimp. Our chef Tang was pretty courteous and made it a comfortable experience even asked our son if food was properly cooked. It is a super family friendly place with that being said, so it can get a bit loud. Being a local I would recommend going to Hokkaido in Summerlin just to avoid the walk from parking garage, casino floor to restaurant.

Really disappointed by the visit. Made reservations for Benihana ahead of time knowing the popularity of the restaurant. Upon arrival, we were seated at the large table together with 8 other people. We wanted to get sushi and placed an order for 3 rolls. After we placed an order, we were told that we needed to go to a "sushi" restaurant next door. A bit surprised, we did not argue and headed to the other part of the restaurant where sushi was made. No explanation was offered why. We were seated at a table for two in front of the sushi counter. Our waitress seemed to be surprised that we were "transferred" over as well. The sushi menu and prices were similar to Benihana but somehow we were in Riki Tiki... It ruined the whole experience. We did enjoy our sushi though, but headed out right afterwards, disappointed with the experience and service.

We've been coming to this location, the original Benihana at WestGate since we moved to LV 18 yrs ago! We've celebrated birthdays, graduations, holidays, and have made many great memories!...this evening I'm so sad to give this bad review. Now the food was great! And our chef was full of personality, but the kind waitress was the only waitress waiting 3 large tables w 12-13 guests each. She couldn't keep up w the drink orders, getting the soup and salad out on time, and they were out of Green Tea ice cream!! The worst part was the air conditioning at the WestGate must have been broken bc there were swamp coolers all over. We were so hot in our closed area and 6-Habachi ovens on!!! The service was long and drawn out..it took 15 min to get our deserts and then another 20 minutes to handle the check. Now to some ppl that may think this is not long time but after a 2.5 hour dinner session in the heat, 35 min is a long time!! Did I also forget to mention that the staff coming to sing Happy Birthday in Japanese are gone! And no more collectible Buddha glasses! We've always loved the ambiance at this location but they haven't invested in this place in years and it shows. Unfortunately, this will be our last time coming here as our experience was horrible! Look, Benihana isn't cheap and prices have increased but the quality has diminished. Today, we now have choices in Japanese Habachi and there's a new Benihana location at the Fashion Show Mall - the ambiance just isn't as cool. So, if you're thinking of dining here, I don't recommend you go to this location and maybe even consider Geisha House or Osaka - Benihana at the WestGate has gone downhill and it kinda makes you wonder what's going on I. The kitchen there behind the closed doors!

The ambience is relaxing as you enter and the entertainment at the table is marginally corny. Upon our arrival, we were asked whether any allergies existed. I said, "Yes, I have allergies for the bill". They laughed at my "funny". The highlight of the evening is everyone's jovial mood. The drinks were nice and we witnessed our chef cooking FRESH items. A frown just wasn't a possibility. Our party of four ordered the "special" for $50 per person, which included soup/salad/fried rice/shrimp/chicken & steak. The meal wasn't stellar but when you mix all the vibes together, we all enjoyed ourselves. Getting to socialize with others we will never see again was also a treat. Now I want to get my own Blackstone Grill. We will possibly return for a special occasion but the search for the ultimate eateries continues. People, DO NOT order your steak passed medium. YOU'RE WELCOME!!

Very poor employee communication! Went to the restaurant for the Election Day Special. We asked about it, after we sat down, but the server said it wasn't available at their restaurant. We tried to look it up on our phones, but couldn't, because there isn't cellular data available and the wifi didn't work. After we got outside we the email didn't say only available at certain locations and you could make a reservation thru the email link, which is what my wife did. It was only clicking on the menu link, that we saw it was only in the bar and lounge. Had management properly informed the employees, maybe the server could have told us, and we would have stayed...

The hibachi chef (Nickei) did not adequately season the food, but relied on slathering on tons of garlic butter instead. The salmon added on to my tuna steak dinner was not fresh. The waiter disappeared for a long while. I think he went on a cigarette break-or something. I ended up calling the front desk to ask if someone could come over and assist our table. I would go to another restaurant instead of this one because it simply was not worth the time, money, or energy spent.

Came to Benihana with friends before seeing a show at the Westgate International Theatre. It was sooooo delicious and the staff are great. Fun way to do dinner! Lovely and quiet location. Make sure you allow enough time for their dinner service prior to your show start time!
