Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista Reviews List
Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
Free Self Parking
(see host for details)Located inside the Hilton in the Walt Disney World Resort. Prepare for a dining experience unlike any other. Watch as your personal chef performs the ancient art of Teppanyaki. Listen as razor-sharp blades slice and dice through mouth-watering steak and tender chicken. Take in the aroma as savory vegetables, shrimp and lobster sizzle before your eyes.
Or visit our sushi bar, where your sushi chef will prepare the freshest sashimi, maki and temaki sushi, all with the same flair that made Benihana a legend in Japanese cuisine.
"If you have never experienced teppanyaki cooking this is a great place to start. Think outside the box when you are looking for a place to eat in the Walt Disney Area. Great food, great value, and most importantly a great place to bring the family where everyone can find something they like. Make reservations ahead of time using open table, and you won't be disappointed!"

Review 2 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"This was my first time to this restaurant. It was an amazing experience from beginning to end! The food was exceptional!! The attire for this location seems to be more relaxed because of it's proximity to Disney. I will definitely return to this location again!"

Review 3 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"I generally like to make this a stop during our trips to Disney. My kids always enjoy it and the food is a bit above average. It is not gourmet, but it is always consistently good. My young son seems to always eat more when coming here....though the show never changes, he always enjoys watching the chef prepare the food. Benihana never disappoints.....and the fact that they once again remodeled the place.....it is now a good looking place to come as well."

Review 5 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"We went to Benihana's for our wedding anniversary. The entire experience was perfect. We sat with a family from Scotland who were here on holiday. They were so much fun. Our waiter's name was Derek and he was excellent. The table side chef was named Hung. He also was excellent. We will definitely be back!"

Review 7 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"Menu is more interesting than your regular hibachi restaurant. Great showmanship from the chefs. Exceptional service, someone in our party dropped a hotel room key, within 5 minutes of leaving they called us and held it until our return an hour later."

Review 9 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"We went for my birthday last week and had a terrific time! I've recommended Benihana and especially the Chef's Table to everyone who would listen. Our chef Michele was very skilled and very charming and entertaining. I didn't know that a birthday sundae would be presented to me and I am lactose-intolerant, so my husband enjoyed it instead. Other than that, a fantastic birthday evening! I would love to make it a staple for my birthday every year!"

Review 11 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"We have been to many Benihana restaurants before - chef was the least talented/entertaining that we have experienced. Could have been new -- otherwise, food was good, service was good."

Review 13 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"In Orlando, one of the best choices. Good food, very good ambiance, excellent for groups. Best if you are a Party of 8, to share a table where a chef will cook in front of you, making the experience fun."

Review 17 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"Whilst the food was excellent, as expected, the seating was a little cramped with 4 adults to one side of the table/grilltop. The noise and behavior of the large number of children present did nothing for the ambiance of the restaurant."

Review 18 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"What a disappointment. Service and management were exceptional! However the cook who prepared our meal was flat did not smile entertain as we have experienced in other experiences. The food is pretty average fair so we go to have an "experience". Fell flat won't be back."

Review 23 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"Great as always, parking is expensive almost $14.00 to park, spent $360 on dinner and then got hit with this. They give a three hour pass but our server didn't know how the process worked so he sent us into the hotel. Long story short we were ten minutes over our limit and were charges for three hours by the Hilton parking lot attendant.
Celebrated my daughters birthday, service was very good. Often imitated but never duplicated."

Review 26 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"We took our grandkids to Downtown Disney for the day and decided, since we all love hibachi, to check out this restaurant which is not even a mile from downtown Disney. Wait staff is extremely attentive, chefs are excellent, food was delicious (and plentiful since we took two doggie bags home) and, all in all, this was a very nice dining experience. I have eaten in various Benihani's throughout the U.S. and I think this is the best one we've been to and....our grandkids were impressed as well. Will definitely return!"

Review 27 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"The service at Benihana in DisneyWorld was terrible. The Chef was excellent, the food was great, but the service was extremely slow and lacking all around. The waitress tried to pass off the incorrect cocktail to me, insisting it was what I ordered. Finally got the correct cocktail and then had to wait extremely long times for everything else. Also they cost of parking has gone through the roof. They are in the Hilton Hotel and do not validate Valet Parking and the lots are far away if you care to self park. I won't be going back to this location. I've been going to Benihana for 35 years for all our family birthday's and this was by far the absolute worst experience I've had."

Review 28 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"This Benihana is always a good place to get a great Tepanyaki experience--especially fun with a group--table seats up to 8--and very accommodating for a birthday or anniversary, including a photo both in hand and on-line. The chefs always give an entertaining cooking demonstration and bow out giving the group a chance to eat and socialize."

Review 30 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"Fantastic, portions were huge no need to order any extras. Kids menu is for under 12's which my 11 year old was worried would be too small. Quite the opposite, her menu options and portion would suit an adult with a smaller appetite . This is a great venue for a celebration. I was spoilt and given a souvenir photo at the end which was gratis !!"

Review 32 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"Our waiter & chef were not the greatest. Have been here many times before & this time was very disappointing. Other tables around us had very energetic chefs & ours was pretty boring. For the price, a the chefs should be equally entertaining!!"

Review 36 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"Me and my wife have been Benihana customer for over 27 years and have never been disappointed. The food is always fresh. The cooks entertain you while they cook for you. There is nothing better than seeing your food before and after it is cooked."

Review 39 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"My husband and I were celebrating my birthday at the Benihana's in Orlando. The food was delicious and the service very friendly. The manager Ramon was very pleasant and took a birthday picture of me and my husband! It was a very enjoyable night. I would recommend making dinner reservations, because it gets very busy."

Review 42 for Benihana - Orlando - Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista
"I booked a reservation for 8 of my coworkers and me after a long day of working at a conference down the road. What a fun experience! There were a few people who had never dined at a Hibachi restaurant and they LOVED it. Our chef Hung was very nice and had some great tricks up his sleeve. Def request him if you can! The food was amazing and we all had a great time."

"Please hire individuals that are able to speak English or atleast are fluent in the English language. It is very noisy in Benihana and having someone that speaks broken English made ordering very difficult."
