About Benihana
The first Phuket branch of the teppanyaki chain, inside the JW Marriott at the far north of Mai Khao Beach, open to anyone. Dinner is a show: you share a hibachi table with other guests while a chef slices, flips and grills steaks, seafood and vegetables in front of you, served course by course; there is also a sushi menu. Children love it; couples after a quiet evening should look elsewhere. Watch the sunset on the beach first.
