Food use to be good back when it first opened, but very lacking now.
Don't recommend

The place was hot and the food only fair. I Asked the server what type of tuna and he did not know. He had to go ask someone. They had all the grills going on one side of the room and it was very hot. The other side was cool. Why don't they split up the grills so that customers don't have to sweat while eating. I sent an email before going,after reading other reviews and was assured that the air conditioning was working fine. He said bad reviews were from competitors. I am not a competitor and would recommend finding another Japanese steak house. Also, too expensive for the quality of food.
Regular, under NEW management! GREAT!!!

We are regulars at Benihana San Antonio, The service and atmosphere used to not be that great, but the food kept us coming back. Just recently it has been under new management and wow! Its 10 times cleaner! The service is fantastic and the food is as good as ever. I would agree with the previous posts about it being bad before. But like I said, the new managment seems to have really turned this place around. Highly recommended!!
AVOID! UNSANITARY, OVERPRICED, & BAD SERVICE

We used to live here 2 years ago and we had frequented this Benihana often. On our recent visit back, we decided to eat here. However, the service and quality has gone way down, but the pricing has gone WAY UP. Expect to spend a minimum $25/person and this is only for the small portions like sauteed chicken. When we got there the place was a bit busy, and the hostess told us it was a 15 min wait, so we were fine with it. 20 mins went by, and we were still not seated. I asked the hostess about this, and she was like oh, you will be seated next. Then another 10 min goes by.. and by the time we had waited 45 mins we were seated. The server came and took our orders and we got our soup/ salad. We told the server we wanted some drinks and sushi from the bar and we?re not sure yet so check in on us in 5 minutes, they never came back! Then after another 30 min wait the chef came out, and still no server, so we gave up. The chef began cooking the meal, and he looked nervous the whole time, had no tricks and did not put on a show. Isn?t the restaurant all about a meal & show in one?? In the middle of the meal, I had to go to the RR and I had accidentally walked into the kitchen. I saw the employees putting together salads with their bare hands, no gloves at all!! On the way back to my table, I saw servers eating in the wait stations and dirty cups everywhere. I can?t even start to imagine how many other surfaces they have touched in the restaurant before serving the salad and sodas!! I am so glad I did not eat the salad!! Also, thank goodness the main course cooks directly in front of you, no dirty hands touching it! How do they even pass health inspections? This place is completely overpriced for the service and food received! There did not seem to be any quality standards left in this place. Avoid!
Terrible food and terrible customer service

We were a group of 5, the server who we think his name was John, was unable to carry on a conversation. We all just sat there like lumps on a log. Very disappointing. Food was terrible, ordered rib eye and although coooked in front of us, it was not edible. He even tried a piece and said he would not eat it, tried to cook another rib eye but by that time, the rest of the party was done eating. Highly over priced, food terrible, service terrible, NO ENTERTAINMENT AT ALL. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANY ONE ELSE, WILL NOT EVER BE RETURNING Celebrating birthdays so again very disappointing.
