text: Benihana is a decent place to get hibachi or sushi anywhere in the country We have been to this location a couple times per year for the past few years and it is always pretty good The sushi There is better in the valley The tepanyaki Same The drinks Pretty good The prices On par with everyone else and the happy hour specials are pretty goodnnBut let us be realistic here Most people come for the chefs table birthday special The coupon has gotten worse over the past year It is now a discount with another purchase cannot be combined with happy hour prices and the times you can come are more limited They are all fair policy changes since businesses need to and deserve to make money But at full price I do not find the food or experience to be worth the trip across town There are areas with better sushi better tepanyaki and better pricesnnIt is good but not great If there was a location in the west valley I could see going here when I got the itch to sit around a table grill But with the recent changes I wonder if even the birthday special is worth the trip across town Or if I would rather pay full price and drive half as far
