First time here for a family dinner with my husband and son. We truly enjoyed it. Jesus was our waiter and he was amazing, kind... and personable. He made great recommendations on entrées and desserts. He has been with the restaurant for 20+ years and isknowledgeable on the menu. I had the Manzo, seared filet mignon with wild mushrooms & red wine reduction. It was cookedperfectly and tender. My son ordered the Gondolas, delicious. We ordered a bottle of Duckhorn (Merlot), one of my favorites. Fordessert we enjoyed the House-made Mango sorbet (personally favorite if you want a refreshing dessert), Warm Valrhona ChocolateCake with vanilla bean ice cream, and Carrot Cake with coffee ice cream. I can’t wait to return! Read more
My family has been guests at Da Benito for years. The food is consistently superior. The vibe is NYC. However, the true... differentiator is Benito’s family! You are greeted at every meal like family! I recently had my best friend in from theMidwest. He had never been to any place remotely like Da Benito. In fact, months after our gastronomic extravaganza, NickCarpenter still brags to anyone in DFW who will listen. Read more
Any negative review of this restaurant is from someone who knows absolutely nothing about food. Period. I dine out a lot and... very much enjoy a variety of cuisines but I find myself repeatedly going back. Nothing in this entire area even compares.Service…food…wine…cocktails. It’s honestly as close to perfect as a human could possibly get. Their seafood isincredibly fresh, pasta is cooked Al dente and served at a perfect temperature for it to cook off over the first few minutes onthe table. The thoughtfulness put into every dish (and I’ve had almost all of them) is really unbelievable. I can’t sayenough about this restaurant! Best in NJ! Read more
Excellent restaurant! Really good food.
Food was underwhelming, very overpriced, not memorable. Bread was cold, mild texture. Olive oil was pretty decent. Orders... ranged from special german sausage, octopus, shrimp, to rack of lamb, linguine with clams. free range chicken. Prices on menuwere not what they actually charged for some items. They also charged an extra appetizer and when we went to dispute it, themanager of the restaurant lost her temper and just went all out. Save yourself the time and money, avoid at all cost. Read more
