if you guys are considering that, check out Kobe Teppan & Sushi.
It's just like Benihana but probably a bit cheaper since you're not paying for the big franchise name.

GF and I ate at the one in Seal Beach and it was delicious. (we've eaten at Benihanas numerous times as well)
http://www.kobebistro.com/

also, this place in Tustin is under new management and I've had a few people tell me it's REALLY good

http://www.kobeteppan.com/


just food for thought...
(see what I did there?)

Jedi: i think we should go with your idea. I think some of us are already familiar with Benihana's. I've never been to that place n' i'm down to check it out.


just checked em' on yelp. Skimmed thru the 'surface level' evaluations and i think kobe teppan looks legit.

i freakin hate you guys!


anyways jedi was on point with the meet. its to more or less to get to meet and hang out with everyone because sometimes we can get busy, and also to try new foods that we wouldn't try and whats a better time to try something disgusting looking than a bunch of friends pressuring you into it!

anyways, to answer your question, this is season. since beach cruises are gonna begin again i'm afraid TOTM will disappear for a while.

and lastly, if you guys want benihana or kobe teppan i'm down with either and i haven't been to a teppanyaki place in ages. so i'm down as well.

if i can get a little more feedback i can make it official.
and please let me know what day and time would be best so i can figure it out.

I'm down for either benihana's or that kobe place. I've been to Benihana's in irvine and it's pretty legit. Not sure if it can handle our shenanigans but then again, not many places can

Another good reason for the benihana's in irvine is that it's near the k1 go karting place
