Benihana Tokyo Wings — Price, Calories, Ingredients & Recipe (2026)

What Is Tokyo Wings?

Benihana’s Tokyo Wings take the American sports-bar staple and give it a Japanese accent: wings are fried until audibly crisp, then tossed in a glossy Tokyo sauce that balances sweet, savory and chili heat, and finished with sesame seeds and scallions. They arrive sticky, glistening and impossible to eat politely.

This is the appetizer for the table that wants bold flavor — great with a cold Kirin from the bar and perfect for sharing, though you may not want to. The heat is present but friendly, landing somewhere between teriyaki and full buffalo.
