	Benihana (restaurant) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Benihana is the name of a chain of Japanese restaurants known for the flavor of its food as much as the showmanship with which it is prepared in front of the customers.
		For many years, Benihana was the face of Japanese cuisine within America, thanks both to corporate-owned and franchise locations through the country and the novelty of preparing food in front of patrons.
		Benihana's famous figural "tiki mugs" for exotic cocktails, the most common of which depicts "Hotei" a chubby buddha-like figure with arms raised in the air, have become highly collectible.

		It was called Benihana of Tokyo, and its founder, a young Japanese Olympic wrestler named Rocky Aoki, has since nurtured his theme into America's Most Popular Family Restaurant, and an international food chain.
		The name "Benihana" comes from the poetic Japanese words for red flower, with the origin of the story actually dating back to 1935 when the late Yunosuke Aoki (Rocky's Father) opened a small coffee shop and called it "Benihana" after a wild red flower that grew near the front door.
		Benihana's food preparation methods immediately set it apart from other restaurants, as it had no conventional kitchen.

		Benihana is the only restaurant I've ever been to in which the customers are cooked alongside the food.
		For those who've never been to a Benihana--and it boasts of being the largest Asian-themed restaurant chain in the world--the food is cooked teppanyaki-style which means an individual chef is assigned to your table and cooks it in front of you.
		Looking around, it soon became clear that Benihana is best suited to groups of six or more since that's the minimum number that have to be seated at each table.

		Benihana brought the concept of the teppanyaki-style steakhouse to America.
		The shrimp also was part of the Benihana Roll ($4.50, eight pieces), along with fresh asparagus and a touch of teriyaki sauce, for an unusual taste treat.
		Benihana's steakhouse offers the same fine food we discovered there when it opened in 1996.

	Memphis Daily News - Benihana Undergoes Extreme Makeover - 4/28/2006
		Benihana restaurants are traditional Japanese-style hibachi steakhouses - called "teppanyaki." Meals are prepared and served by a performing chef at the customers' table.
		Although his restaurant is more of a Japanese steakhouse with sushi and doesn't have the teppanyaki tables Benihana has, Higasai has seen the area's tastes change.
		The Benihana exterior also is undergoing a change, with glass windows looking in on the teppanyaki tables so guests entering the restaurant can see the chefs at work.

	Robin Garr's Louisville Restaurant Guide / Benihana
		It's hard to believe that almost a full generation has passed since Benihana came to Louisville as one of the first restaurants in the then-new Plainview development, not to mention one of the city's first Japanese restaurants.
		Time has served it well in the looks department, we found on a recent visit, with some 20 years of landscaping and nature's slow process having turned its exterior appearance from a plastic-style suburban eatery into something with a hint of the grace and style of a Japanese garden.
		Unagi (eel sushi, $3) cames with garnishes and a squirt of sweet sauce; the fried shrimp roll, an "inside-out" roll with rice on the outside, was decorated with dabs of green and orange fish roe to add color and salty-fishy flavor bursts of caviar.

	Restaurant Review: Benihana Japanese Cuisine Westbury, Long Island - Associated Content
		The first Benihana restaurant opened in 1964 and it came with the excitement of having a chef prepare a meal at your dining table.
		Eating at Benihana was not only an experience in the exotic flavors and smells of Japanese cuisine, it was a theater of cooking where a person could enjoy the swift and skilled techniques of Japanese cooking just inches away from his dining chair.
		The Benihana restaurant experience became in demand and customers had to wait in line, while others just had to be turned away when the waiting became too long.

		Time is usually unkind to London restaurants and many see their popularity fade as the years progress - not so with Benihana Swiss Cottage.
		The magical atmosphere at Benihana is in large measure created by the red-hat chefs who joke and juggle while sizzling the fresh food in front of your eyes.
		Benihana portions are generous, and if you still have space left for dessert try the banana or ice-cream tempura - cool and luxurious vanilla ice-cream enveloped in hot, light sponge cake and fried in crisp batter.

		Even as the Benihana of Tokyo Inc. family trust created by Rocky Aoki, who founded the chain in 1964, was pressing a lawsuit over Benihana Inc.'s $20 million private-financing deal earlier this year, the chain was borrowing ideas from a newer Japanese-theme concept.

	Benihana - Restaurant Review - Dining Out with Rob Balon - Roving Gourmet
		I refer of course to the show at Benihanna Restaurant on Burnet near #183.
		In the true style of legendary showman P.T. Barnum, proprieter Brad Meltzer has crafted a restaurant where knife wielding performance artists/chefs slice and dice their way through an abundance of fresh meats, seafoods, and vegetables...all in front of an audience seated around a massive grilling station.
		I'm afraid that the amidst the attention paid to the tepanyaki grilling, the sushi at Benihanna may sometimes be overlooked.
