any suggestions on what to order at a benihana/hibachi grill restaurant? i don't really want this for a cheat meal and would rather try to keep it light.
 
Isn't sushi clean? Just don't order anything with the spicy mayo topping and you should be good - assuming you like sushi!

Haven't been to a benihana's in a while. Enjoy!

hmm havent been there in a long while. stirfried rice with shrimp is what I got the few times I went. its VERY good. hey its a pricey resteraunt so I'd get whatever I want since I never get to go there.
 
The only "fattening" thing I have ever had at a Benihana's is the oil they use to keep the food from sticking to the grill.

They have lean red meat, chicken and shrimp there. Then they serve you grilled veggies with your meal and you can choose white rice or fried rice. That is the standard dinner - unless it has changed in the last 10 years?

That is when you sit around the grill though - never gone to the bar and had sushi?
 
Just got back from dinner. I was successful! I ordered an ahi tuna steak (yummy) and requested the chef to go light on the oil and put no butter on my veggies. I have to say that without all the garlic butter i actually enjoyed my meal more than last time i was there. I could actually taste the food and not just the butter. Plus my tummy doesn't hurt as it had before when i ordered it regular with all oil and butter. I didn't eat the fried rice (just not a fan) so all i had was the tuna and grilled veggies.
