                    Group of people having fun at Benihana

Welcome to Benihana, home of the original hibachi experience.

Our Memphis restaurant sits on Ridgelake Blvd in East Memphis, just off Poplar Ave and I-240, directly across from the Hilton. This is the place where the chef cooks right in front of you on the teppanyaki grill, complete with the knife work, the flames and the onion volcano.

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, bringing the family in on a Friday night, treating the team after work, or stopping for lunch between meetings off Poplar, we’ve been the hibachi spot East Memphis has kept coming back to for years.

Features:

  • Wheelchair Accessible
  • Private Dining Event Space
  • Parking on site, with easy access from I-240

Fresh From the Grill

Our chefs cook right in front of you. Filet mignon, colossal shrimp, Hokkaido scallops, all grilled on the teppanyaki with the kind of showmanship you’ll still be talking about on the drive home.

If you’re after hibachi in Memphis, you’ve found it.

On the grill right now:

  • Teppanyaki Hibachi
  • Wagyu of the World
  • Sushi & Sashimi

Need lunch? Benihana’s Power Lunch is a full 3-course hibachi meal from just $15.95, served in 45 minutes or less, guaranteed. Or your meal is on us. Great for a midday break off Poplar, a quick team lunch near the East Memphis offices, or a bite before the Botanic Garden.

Available daily until 3pm.
