One of my favorite food indulgences is a sushi and hibachi restaurant. First off I should say I am not a sushi eater, my husband is (I only eat California rolls which have crab meat), but I do love Teriyaki chicken! Benihana is actually the leading Japanese-themed restaurant chain in the world, and a restaurant we frequent probably too much! Now if you have never been to one before, you will be in for quite a surprise and even if you have, if you are like me, then it is still fun and entertaining. At Benihana, you sit at a U-shaped table and right in front of you a chef cooks for you! Throughout the meal the chef’s usually do tricks and get the diner’s excited, and I still get excited even though I have seen all the tricks!
What I love most about Benihana though is that you don’t leave there hungry and you might even have leftovers perfect for lunch the next day! There is also something for everyone as you can choose from steak, chicken, seafood, vegetables, or a combination. I have tried a little of everything, and have yet to be disappointed! I will say though that it can be expensive so we do try to only visit for special occasions. Well now through the end of March, Benihana is offering excellent deals with a prices that are amazing and make a great excuse for a date night! This would also be a great time to go if you haven’t tried Benihana before.
Benihana’s March Chef’s Special:
Hibachi Shrimp and Chicken for Two for $35

The March Chef’s special featuring Hibachi Shrimp and Chicken for Two would be all the farther we would get on the menu. Apart from that, I would make it a point to try some Benihana Hot Sake.
