I feel like a lot of people here don't really understand that Hibachi/Teppanyaki serves a completely different purpose and has a different atmosphere in the Sates than in Japan. It is not at all meant to be a quite/intimate fine dining experience. You do not go in expecting it to be. It is meant to be an entertaining (and often loud) show you go to with a large group of people and can get pretty rowdy depending on the guests. Could the chef have been less sloppy? Certainly. But that's not really the point in this setting. it's more about having a fun night out with friends or coworkers where the actual cooking does not matter. The chef is often interacting with the guests directly and literally flinging food at them and making jokes too. But because Aden went alone and speaks very minimally, it just makes everything awkward and worse than it actually is. People saying the Japanese videos are more "artistic" are not wrong, but that's because they are suppose to be. This is not.

I’ve seen loads of people here saying that the entertainment he included is all because he is in America. This is half true but I also feel that it is just the way the restaurant Benihana do things. I went to Benihana a few months ago in London, and after watching this video I was surprised to see literally the exact same tricks and entertainment stunts when I went to Benihana myself. I highly doubt that there are Benihana restaurants in Japan, and I think that Benihana do these things specifically to target people in foreign countries who don’t necessarily understand proper teppanyaki. Interesting!

You can get proper tepppenyaki in America but this was filmed at Benihana, a very generic (although quite popular) chain of a very westernized style. It’s for entertainment value more than anything else. Often you’ll see the tables with large parties for birthdays, special events, etc. kind of like a Disney world novelty.

I reconsidered my decision, it looks terrible. and he also lost a piece of Mr. Shrimp. Sloppy.

Apparently it's safe to use the same spatula on raw meat and the rest?

Ah Good Ole Benihana! I worked for 2 years as a bus boy and assistant chef at the Benihana franchise in Harrisburg Pennsylvania from 2009 to 2011! Best job I ever had! Having been born in Seoul Korea adopted and raised in the United States the job gave me a whole new appreciation for not only the fine art of gourmet Japanese cuisine but also more respect and pride for my Asian heritage in general! At Benihana no matter what race you are you become family with everyone alike! Fellow employees and customers!

This is not true teppanyaki. A Japanese chef would have spent a half an hour lining those mushrooms up in a row by size.

No one mentioned he flipped the raw chicken then continued to use the spatula.

BENNI FUCKING HANA!?!?

why didn't they devein the shrimp?

price? fo lunch?

😘😘😘👍😘😘😘

I believe that chicken needed another minute or so on the grill.. not sure it was done all the way!!!

If it was a full table of interactive diners, the chef's performance would have been livelier. Also, even at Benihana's level of service, the shrimps should have been de-veined. Still , I thought the chef was hilarious in a deadpan kind of way.

Just bloody make my lunch and stop playin with it mate !
