- JJimmyLos Angeles •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoIt’s always a great experience here at this location. Our reservation was fast and easy, the host was extremely kind and genuinely welcoming to my wife and I. The salad bar is clean and very fresh every time we visit. Meats are top notch in quality, we had the luck of having our favorite server (Willy) for the second time, he answers all of our questions and is very kind and knowledgeable of the meat cuts, salad bar items, and deserts. We will be back again soon. Thank you always for a great experience!More infoTexas De Brazil - IrvinePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Irvine•4.4

- SSueOrange County •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI had to give only a 4 star rating on the service only because they seemed to be vary short of staff. Many tables were waiting a longer time for a chef and the servers seemed to be stretched thin. To their credit, the restaurant knew that this was a problem and not only gave the whole table free appetizers but they took about 30% off of each two person bill. I felt that was above and beyond. We actually enjoyed the extra time at our table to just sit and visit. In addition, they were very accommodating of my special request to have my food cooked without the addition of butter which is a staple in this type of food preparation. This is the second time I have asked for this and each time my message was relayed to the chef and he took great pains to insure that my food was cooked perfectly, off to the side of the others. Thank you Benihanas. Everything else was 5 starMore infoBenihana - Newport Beach, CAPrice: Moderate• Japanese• Newport Beach•4

- VValerieVIPOrange County •10 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis restaurant is exceptional; every time, every day. We have been coming here for years and William treats us--and all his customers--with such respect and love. What's amazing is the consistency in the service, food, drink, and atmosphere. And, back to William...how does someone treat customers with such respect and love always, year after year, like it's the first day ever? Having been in the people business myself (for decades as a high school teacher) I recognize that presence of power; that treatment of clients like they are the most important thing going at that moment of contact; regardless of what else might be going on. It comes from an exceptionally high EQ, which can't be taught. Rather, it is the essential ingredient for success. The food is GREAT, but the service is even better from the hostess stand, to the server, to....well, William! We were treated to a new server tonight: Peter. He's a keeper. We're coming back to see him again! Great hire and he is equally grateful and happy to be working at the Winery. Win-win. See y'all again soon!More infoThe Winery Restaurant & Wine Bar- TustinPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Tustin•4.4
