Benihana - Lombard

For being the OG of hibachi I expected so much more. I had the hibachi chicken which was served with 3 small shrimp that were cut in pieces, soup and salad, one piece of zucchini and some onions. Chicken was fine, not great. Husband had the Emperor’s Feast and the filet portion was flavorful but over cooked. His came as a 6 course meal including ice cream but our server argued with us that it was not included and tried to charge us another $5 for a small scoop. Finally we had her pull out the menu and showed her it was included and her response was ok I won’t charge you. The decor is very minimal and can certainly use to be updated. Martini was decent but small for the price. Final review glad I went there once but not likely to return.

It was so fun the entire time and the food, and my favorite part was when the chef made an onion volcano with fire coming out of it. So ,

Surprisingly reasonable prices for a big name restaurant.

Awesome place! Needs more show skills in his cookers !

Everything was great but it is just not worth the price anymore. So expensive!
