    A time based experience since a few cooks do all the cooking. Which is fine because that gives plenty of time to talk. The flame of fire is nice and always nice for a photo moment. The food is good and well prepared.

    Nice place, good food, table sharing around the cooking plate is understood but not perfect…bit too intimate to my taste

    I recently dined at Benkei, a captivating Japanese restaurant where the art of cooking isn't just displayed, it's celebrated right before your eyes. On a serene Sunday evening, my husband and I were welcomed into an atmosphere that blended traditional Japanese aesthetics with a cozy, modern charm. The highlight of our experience was undoubtedly the 'meat mix' menu, a culinary journey that was both a visual and gustatory spectacle. The chefs at Benkei are true maestros, wielding their knives with a precision and grace that transforms cooking into a performance. Each dish was a masterpiece, from the succulent slices of steak to the tender morsels of chicken, all seasoned and cooked to perfection right at our table. The flavors were a harmonious blend of traditional Japanese techniques with a hint of innovative flair, leaving our palates delighted and craving for more. Service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring our evening was nothing short of perfect. The warmth and professionalism made us feel valued and well-cared for throughout our meal. In conclusion, Benkei isn't just a restaurant; it's an experience. For anyone looking to immerse themselves in the art of Japanese cuisine and enjoy a meal that tantalizes all senses, this is the place to be. A resounding 10/10 stars!

    The food was immaculate and the atmosphere was really nice as well. It's a small restaurant so it was very quiet and chill.

    Benkei is one of the few favourite restaurants in The Hague. We go quite often with friends and family. Weblove Japanese food and Japanese culture. Benkei is a real traditional restaurant with genuine Japanese food and service. The food is of very high quality, not like all-you-can-eat types. Here you have simple but good food. Pricea are reasonable. Service is also amazing. The owners are wanderful people and serve with great delicacy.

    For authentic Japanese food, come here! The setting is beautiful, I felt like I was back in Japan. Our main meal was cooked in front of us by the chef and all the food was delicious! They have a nice microbrewery beer which we tried, and a range of sake and whiskey, which we will try next time! The service was great, super friendly!

    It was really nice experience! I visited Japan several times, and it was really same taste and interior. The owner was really kind as well. If you only ate fake Japanese foods in NL! Believe me it is real taste

    We ate sushi, it seemed the staff didn’t wanna serve us that. They were friendly but not polite, we didn’t feel welcome. Food was tasteless and too expensive for this quality. Uninspired sushi and limited options.

    You always get the highest quality of food, service and ambiance at Benkei - one of the best and most consistent restaurants I know of in The Hague. If you enjoy Teppan Yaki and/or Sushi in a REAL and AUTHENTIC traditional Japanese atmosphere, this is the place to be. And very centrally located.
