Benihana - Coral Gables

I took my son for a Christmas Eve dinner and we were so impressed by the service and entertainment! Our waitress Giselle was so nice and amazing very funny too and our Chef Douglas did all kinds of cool tricks for my son he loved it so much thank you so much for making our night fun ! Highly recommend you ask for them when you visit !

Excellent experience with my family of 4 (2 toddlers). Manager Xavier was very attentive and proactive helping my daughters to some French fries while we waited for the incredible Teppanyaki show by Luis! My 4-year old had a great time and loves that onion volcano! Server Brie was also very attentive and made our dining experience that much more enjoyable with 2 toddlers- thanks for the extra ice cream scoops. Thank you Benihana for great service and quality food. We will be coming back.

Visited this restaurant around 9:20 PM and was extremely disappointed. For a place charging an average of $75 per person, I expected a clean and welcoming environment. Instead, the carpets were dirty, the bathrooms were gross and outdated, and the overall atmosphere felt neglected. It was so unappealing that we walked in and immediately walked out. The only positive was the host, James—he was incredible, super inviting, and professional. Unfortunately, the condition of the restaurant overshadowed his efforts. Definitely not worth the price point, with such a prime location. As of January 7, 2026, I received an automated response to my review, directing me to a national website to file a complaint about how unpleasant the restaurant is.

I made reservations three days prior to my arrival, but upon timely arrival, I experienced an excessive wait of over an hour for our table. Unfortunately, the bathrooms were found to be unclean and poorly maintained. Following our eventual seating, we encountered an additional delay of one hour for water service, and I remained awaiting the chef's appearance. When the chef finally emerged, I was compelled to note that the overall service was subpar. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone. My family was understandably dissatisfied with the experience, which was particularly disappointing given that it was my niece's birthday and she did not feel celebrated.

I never been to any location but i always wanted to try, until now. I been impressed by the chef and his way to entertaining us to the next level. The food was delicious and prepared with care, our service was on point and entire time we had a good time and enjoyable. Really nice spot to try the food and the entertainment.
