Benihana

Benihana sits on West Temple in downtown Salt Lake City, serving its signature Japanese steakhouse experience: chefs at the griddle slicing, searing, and plating dinner right in front of the table. The communal teppanyaki setup makes it a natural pick for birthdays and groups.

Sushi holds its own here too, with rolls and nigiri available alongside the grill menu. The drink program covers cocktails, a wide tea selection, and a wine list, so the meal scales from quick lunch to long celebration.

The restaurant runs lunch and dinner daily with dine in, takeout, curbside pickup, and delivery, and the space is wheelchair accessible from parking through seating.

The location puts it steps from the Salt Palace and Temple Square foot traffic, making it an easy dinner anchor for a downtown Salt Lake City evening.
