A very good example of a well-made Sauvignon Blanc from Chile, a great burst of passion fruit and guava, followed by some green apple and citrus notes. On the palate good acidity, with some apple, tropical and floral tones with a long finish that is clean on the palate perfect for any dish.
A fabulous balance of refreshing citrus and tropical fruits with just a hint of vanilla on the finish. Benihana Recommendation
Citrus fruits and green apple on the nose have been finished with refreshing lemon and pear on the palate.
A great example of Riesling growing at high altitudes. On the nose we have notes of orange, mandarin and minerals reflecting the soil. On the palate the fruits are fresh and well-bodied. Goes perfectly with spicy food and sea food.
Floral, elegant and rich in fruity nuances. The taste is fresh, dry and harmonious with a well integrated and balanced acidity.
Bright appearance with well-balanced white flowers, peach and acacia on the nose leading into dry, supple palate with flavours of clean citrus fruit and pure minerality.
Delicious aromas of apple and pear that melt into a smooth and fresh finish on the palate with very good acidity.
With a lively perlage and persistent foam, it has intense aromas with floral scents of white and red flowers accompanied by fruity notes such as apple, pear and hints of red fruit, such as strawberry and raspberry.
A crisp, sparkling sake with lively bubbles and a soft and rounded sweetness.
This Champagne has a delicious fresh fruit flavour with richness and complexity.
The nose is fresh and delicate, showing good complexity with its hits of citrus and white fruit, followed by hint of brioche.
Intense salmon pink colour with raspberry, redcurrant, strawberry and black cherry on the nose, and reflects on to the palate. A stunning well-made wine structure and complexity.
Ruby red with hints of summer fruits and violets. A balanced flavour with a pleasantly lingering, distinctive black cherry aftertaste.
A mix of plum, raspberry and blackberry, medium-bodied, yet soft and silky. The purity of this wine is a natural acidity which complements the fruits in a lenghty finish.
The juicy red cherry and plum fruit of the Malbec combines beautifully with the subtle spiciness of the Bo narda, resulting in a wine which is velvety smooth on the outside but macho on the inside. Great structure on the palate and perfect balance between fruit and spice. Benihana Recommendation
Intense and mature on the nose with a high presence of fruity hints well blended with the sweet and vanilla oaky notes from the French and American oak. Round and strong in the mouth with robust tannins.
Intense aromas of dried fruit and black cherries. Full on the palate with balanced tannins and a very persistent aftertaste.
This elegant and fragrant Pinot Grigio Rosé is delicately aromatic and deliciously crisp on the pal ate.
The Mediterranean influence you can smell in the glass. Pale honeysuckle pink, and offering a clean nose of citrus fruit, offset by subtle floral and candied notes. Fresh acidity makes for an incisive and lively palate, with a rounded feel. Perfect with fish or oily dishes.

Benihana in London's West End is a culinary adventure that brings the excitement of teppanyaki cooking to life. Located at 31 Maiden Ln, this vibrant restaurant offers a unique dining experience where chefs prepare meals right before your eyes on sizzling hibachi grills. As a fan of interactive dining, I found this experience thrilling, as it allows guests to watch the artistry and skill behind each dish while enjoying a lively atmosphere.
The Benihana menu is a fusion of Japanese flavors with a playful twist, catering to both meat lovers and vegetarians alike. Signature dishes like the Hibachi Filet Mignon, grilled to perfection, and the Teppanyaki Lobster Tail, which offers a delicate, buttery finish, are some of the standout offerings. For those craving variety, the Benihana special combination platters, featuring a mix of steak, chicken, and shrimp, are an excellent choice. The rich flavors of the sauces served alongside the meals enhance the overall experience.
Vegetarian options also shine, such as the Grilled Vegetable Teppanyaki and the veggie-packed sushi rolls. The menu caters to various dietary preferences, ensuring that no one is left out of the fun. For a sweet ending, the Chocolate Lava Cake is a must-try, providing a satisfying contrast to the savory dishes.
What sets Benihana apart from other Japanese restaurants is the entertaining presentation. The chefs engage with diners, making each meal not just a culinary experience but a show. This adds a personal touch and keeps the atmosphere upbeat and energetic.
While the prices are on the higher side, the quality of food, entertainment, and overall experience justifies the cost. Benihana's blend of entertainment and exquisite cuisine makes it a fantastic spot for a special night out or a group celebration.
