Food/service very good but when calculating the tip you pay tip on the sales tax also, next time I will give a lower tip % instead of giving 20% I’ll give 18%

Nothing like the original, excellent family experience, especially for the kids. Pricing remains reasonable.

Came here for our anniversary. My wife loved it and said the food was really good. Chef Miguel was fantastic and enthusiastic. We didn’t mind sharing table, we loved interacting with the other guest on the same table. The house sake was also good. Got...the habachi steak which was really delicious! Our server ceci was really nice as well.More

The meal was prepped in front of us and our chef Bustillo was SO entertaining and great. Our server Lina provided the best service. She was running from 1 table to another table and I'm not sure how these people can work serving 22 people!...The soup was delicious and my Filet Mignon was cooked perfectly. Thank you so much. I will be telling the rest of my family about Manhasset!More

Subpar food and expensive. Should be a fun experience but chef was not engaged. Restaurant not ventilated well. Too smoky. Spend your money elsewhere.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in NY. My family and I come back often not just for the great food, drinks, and atmosphere; but because of the first class service.The most important reason we continue to keep coming back is the politeness and...hospitality the entire staff has every time. The hosts Kevin and Jerry, server Jane, and manager Daniel are all always super nice and eager to help with any questions. We will be back sooner than later!More

This was a first time I saw an almost empty Benihana on a Friday on April. Maybe it is lent I thought? We sat in a back corner room which was great for loudness but very hot. Temperatures before cooking was 78 degrees. The first...course of soup was served cold. I don’t mean lukewarm, I mean cold like it was from fridge. Our next to us family had piping hot soup of a different kind. The waitress apologized and asked if we wanted new warm soup but we declined since the making of food began. The chef was fun and friendly but the fried rice didn’t get mixed well. The vegetables appetizer was good but had large pieces of mushrooms not sautéed enough, it was uneven. Shrimp and chicken was delicious. Overall it was a fun evening with some mediocre food. Finally I went to use the lady’s room. It looked like a rest stop on a state highway. One sink was out of order with a large white plastic bag on it. (Instead of a sign). No soap where you need it. It didn’t look good at all.More

Ordered a Margarita while waiting for the table. The bartender needed to look up the ingredients on the computer. Not sure what he was reading and what the concoction was but when I took a sip I nearly spat it out all over the bar....It was undrinkable!! literally!! I should have left then but I didn’t Proceeded to our table. Seating cramped, Dining area extremely loud, service slow. When the entree was finally brought to me , I returned it. It was Cold and tasteless. In all me dining experiences I have never had to return a drink AND an entree. The only reason I gave it one star is because there is no zero star. This establishment is a NO GO.More

Hadn’t been to Benihana in 25 years when our children and grandchildren wanted to go all together. We were very pleasantly surprised. The food and the service, plus the “show” was very nice. Everyone was very happy with their orders and the kids happily ate...all their food. Portions were a good size and the menu had many options. Would def go again and recommend to friends w little kids.More

Family and I have been going here for 20 years. The food it's always been consistent, the service fine, and everything as you would expect from Benihana. But last visit, which will be the last, I noticed significant changes have taken place. For example it...used to be soup and salad and now it's one or the other. The portions have decreased by at least 30%. The steak is a truly inferior cut of meat cooked poorly. And the number of shrimp one gets in a combo meal could be counted on one hand. All of these changes while the prices have actually gone up. Must be a change of management or corporate branding. Either way, no more for meMore
