This review is really hard to write as I have been a frequent customer for several years. Recently, I even thought the quality had been improving, but due to the last two experiences ordering through Kool, I am afraid our relationship has come to an end and I will source my sushi from elsewhere. This is after spending several thousand dinar over time. A few days ago, with my order, I received saumon sashimi and nigiri that arrived with a strong rotten smell. As I have never experienced this with Benkay, I notified Kool and received a refund of the costs.

Read moreOverall, I had a great experience at Benkay sushi restaurant. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was fun. The waiting time was average, however, there are a few areas that could be improved. One suggestion would be for the staff to ask customers if they have any allergies before placing their order. This is especially important for those who are new to sushi and may not be familiar with the components of the dishes.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others, but with the above...
