Great food, place and experience. Went there for date night and would definitely go back.

Been fan of Hells Kitchen since season 1. Already experience Gordon Burger and Gordon Fish N chips in Las Vegas. Happily to know there’s a Hells Kitchen in San Diego. Didn’t know it’s 30 minutes away from Pechanga Resort N Casino. Restaurant is located within Harrahs Casino Came in 15 minutes prior to reservation but was happily seated right away from the hostess. Server was knowledgeable on explaining first timers of the menu and how it works. Seasonal Christmas holiday drink is highly recommended because it’s not only sweet but it tastes like hard candy. That’s also what surprise me: the bartenders can make any specific drink you request or they can surprise you. Order two drinks that’s similar to the holiday drink but different. Not only each one looks beautiful but it tastes differently but still sweet Order the prefix menu which includes either scallops/beet salad and beef Wellington and stick y top pudding. In addition, order the lobster risotto and Mac N cheese and seasonal soup. That’s a lot of food but was sharing with my gf. Appetizers comes first then entree then dessert. Scallops is excellent and gf is not a fan of seafood but she enjoys it. Texture of risotto is smooth and creamy. Soup was sweet but hits the spot. Gf was surprise of the Mac N Cheese because she hates it Mac N cheese but HK got it perfect. Wellington is staple and so good. Sticky top pudding his Ramsay mother recipe but elevated and it’s huge. Got a complimentary mini sticky top for celebrating an anniversary. Overall, it’s very good and highly recommended on going. Only downside is the drive but worth it

It’s always a good time at Benihana! The chef was so accommodating with my special requests and made my birthday special. The food was over and above delicious. We will be back!

Our server Pamela was amazing. Thank you for the wonderful dining experience.
