3 Restaurant Reviews in Los Angeles, California
Benihana is located at 3760 Indland Empire Boulevard in Ontario which is a city in the greater Los Angeles, California area. It got its humble beginnings when Yunosuke Aoki and his wife, Katsu, opened a small coffee shop in Tokyo, Japan after the war. Yunosuke, a decendent of a samurai warrior, wanted to stand out from other coffee shops and was known to ride his bike as far away as twenty miles to buy real sugar.
His son, Hiroaki, was so inspired by this fathers’ hard work that he moved to the United States after he graduated from college. He did not have much money, so he began selling ice cream on the streets of Harlem. When he was not working, he studied restaurant management. His ice cream business was successful because he would use Japanese cocktail umbrellas to adorn his ice cream. Once he reached his savings goal of $10,000, Hiroaki took out a loan and opened the first Benihana which was the name of his father’s coffee shop.
The business took off and soon Hiroaki was opening Benihana’s all over the United States. Sadly, he died in 2008 but his legacy lives with over seventy Benihana restaurants in the Caribbean, South and Central America and the United State. They have close to twenty-three hundred reviews on the world wide web with a four-point-two-star rating.
