Delicious food and a stunning atmosphere!This is located in Westgate Resort. We had a lovely evening here. The ambience is absolutely beautiful and perfect for a special occasion. As for the food, everything was delicious and seasoned perfectly. Our chef had a couple of misses with the ‘tricks’ during the show, but he was so charming that it didn’t take away from the experience. Great vibes, great eats, and a fun night out overall!”

Reservation for 6. Great front desk management worked with our party and sat quickly. Did the 6 course meal. From the 1st course (onion soup) to the dessert (ice cream) everything was pretty quick and efficient. The chef was great and interactive with us. The steak and chicken were cooked perfectly. The calamari and scallops were delicious. Great experience. The decorations in this massive restaurant are beautiful and the ambiance takes it to another level. A must alteast one time.

Brandon killed it! I’ll keep coming back for the best hibachi chef to date. What a show! If you can get him do it! Yakisoba trio was amazing. It’s hot in there so dress light. Great time in Vegas

Today is 3 March, 2026. I am told that the area we enjoyed tonight was the Sushi Bar last week, and has been transformed into the Hibachi Dining Area.
There is now One Hibachi Grill in the area and seating for (about) 30 people.
You can see/watch your meal prepared from your seat, and then enjoy your meal at your Table or Counter Seat.
There were two of us at a table for two, to the left of the Grill area. A nice private setting with a view of the food prep area.
We both had the Texas Wagyu 8 ounce beef special, Medium Rare with Fried Rice Meal. Delicious!!!
AJ was our server… If you are fortunate enough to get AJ as your server, sit back, relax, and enjoy your meal. AJ will make sure that you are well taken care of.

Ate at the Zen Zen (part of Benihana) Beautiful decor, however, the food didn’t match the decor level. 1st. Orange chicken is 2/3rd batter and 1/3rd chicken if you call it that. Way to much batter. 2nd. Fried rice with egg, was more like 99.7% rice and .3% egg. No Bueno. It appeared that the egg was placed only on the top as there was zero below that. The waiter hardly came to see us. I had to ask other employees passing by for help.

If you are in Vegas or staying at Westgate then this is a must try place. Tried the Las Vegas roll, Spicy Tuna and the California rolls. Delicious!

What a total disaster!! Never again will I go to any Benihana!
We had a 7:30 pm reservation and arrived slightly early. We were sent to a special waiting area for probably 15 minutes. Odd for having reservations.
Then at the group table … more waiting. A waitress came and spoke to the table but the whole place was so loud, it was impossible to hear what she had to say. She took drink orders. Then quite a delay before drinks arrived.
We told the waitress that we had tickets for the 9:00 Elvis tribute show at the Westgate. She said we should have told her sooner.
The soup came at 8:30 — one hour after our 7:30 reservation.
I love Japanese food. Sadly the Benihana grub was mediocre. Iceberg lettuce salad — how imaginative and exotic! Lame soup. The entree, Spicy Shrimp, was so-so.
With time running out before the Elvis tribute show started, we hurriedly gobbled up our dinners to the ambiance of a very loud din that made conversation nearly impossible.
Then waited more for the waitress to finally bring the check. Total fare: $177.44 for two people.
All of this fiasco made us 25 minutes late for the Elvis show, just a few feet away inside the Westgate.
Clearly, this Benihana store has a laundry list of unaddressed staff, customer service and management problems. All of this for so-so food at a super premium price and failed customer service.
Didn’t even validate for the new Westgate parking fee. We left angry and gouged for a poor, over-priced dinner. Never again!

Atmosphere transporting, from the decor, furnishings, rainfall from ceiling into pond, the lantern lighting beautiful. Service from greeting by hostess to our grill staff was exceptional. Our master chef was talented and entertaining with the food. Only deficit for me was food timing. May be an east coast thing at a hibachi type place but our rice vegetables and meat are done and servered together not each a separate course. With 11 people at one grill I know that’s probably hard but less people per grill would help. My son sat on a corner, not ideal. Still overall enjoyed our visit.

Had an amazing experience today. Our chef Edwin was amazing! The food was so good, he cooked everything to perfection. I’ve been to many Benihanas but never had fried rice like his. Not overly oily or salty but just right. His show was also super funny and he was very personable and made everyone at the table laugh and have a good time. Our server was amazing too I forget her name but she was quick and took very good care of us. She refilled our drinks without even having to ask and made us laugh. She was awesome. If you’re looking for an awesome dinner and show make sure you come to Benihana Westgate! Ask for chef Edwin. You won’t be disappointed

Our server Sachi was so lively and a great help explaining the menu and options. Our cook was PHENOMENAL and the food was 10/10. Not too loud, not too hot next to the flat top and food was well prepared.
Sorry the meat went into our tummies too fast so we didn’t get a photo
