Benihana operates a leading chain of Japanese restaurants which include 63 Benihana teppanyaki restaurants, nine Haru sushi restaurants, 25 RA Sushi Bar Restaurants and 22 other franchised teppanyaki restaurants.
Benihana restaurants are traditional Japanese-style
hibachi steakhouses - called "teppanyaki." At Benihana,
your meal is prepared and served by a performing chef, right
at your table. The chef slices and cooks the meal in a spectacular
way. Diners can choose from a variety of fresh sushi and other
Japanese favorites.
The menus are simple and distinctive; the teppanyaki menu consists of top sirloin, tender poultry, seafood and vegetarian entrees. Steak is the most popular item at Benihana but sushi is also becoming more popular
The company acquired RA Sushi in 2003 with four units in Arizona.
In fiscal 2009, revenues at the company were $305.6 million with a net loss of $5.0 million.
Rocky Aoki opened the first Benihana restaurant
in New York in 1964 with just four tables.
