especially when you're at an actual benihana restaurant!
great for large-ish groups but also perfect for just a few diners - they will always fill up your table if they can. the food prep is a show and if you have a really talented chef, you'll be dazzled. they cook it all right there in front of you, from the scrambled egg that goes into the fried rice to the last bit of meat. and in all my years of eating at benihana or benihana-style restaurants, i've never had a bad meal. the food is great, good for you, includes lots of veggies, and is just a really fun dining experience.
