Welcome to Benihana, home of the original hibachi experience.

Welcome to Benihana in Monterey, California, where you’ll find a dining experience unlike any other. Watch as your personal chef performs the ancient Japanese art of Teppanyaki in our elegant dining room, preparing a meal that will dazzle your eyes, as well as your taste buds. 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 right before you.

At Benihana Monterey, sushi appetizers can be ordered in the dining room or visit our beautiful sushi lounge, where your sushi chef will prepare fresh sashimi, nigiri sushi and our famous Benihana rolls from our full sushi menu.
