Joseph Benjamin - Chester

A little jewel in chester absolutely delicious and delightful we loved it

That was my first visit and a special lunch for my gott daughter on her 21st eating was great, service also top notch. my only small critique was room, but the table was a little small for five. overall a great place, cheap and in a great location.

I and the woman went for a meal to joseph benjamin, although there is a lot of competition in the breast, we really liked the look of the menu and ambient. it wasn't disappointing, my ochs-baked with artichokes-Risotto and crispy soots were devine. will be coming back soon

We have been meaning to try Joseph Benjamin for a while now so finally booked a table with ease online. Had a wonderful meal and felt very well looked after by the lovely ladies serving on Friday night. They were all welcoming and friendly upon entering. The reservation request was accommodated for too. Each person who served was knowledgeable about the wine and the food and able to answer every question put to them promptly and with good explanations and accurate descriptions. The soup and bread with it were both deliciously flavourful, the fish was cooked beautifully although as I sometimes do found the langoustine bisque a little on the salty side. The homemade cranberry sorbet was refreshingly tart I am so glad they did not feel the need to overly sweeten it! My partner hugely enjoyed his starter and the ox cheek fell apart perfectly, however we both agreed the brownie desert was a little on the dry side in the absence of any sauce coulis or cream served instead with a beautiful peanut butter icecream and cindertoffee. They all were great flavours but didn't make it look as appealing or help with the overall texture/lubrication of the dish. For us, what was most appreciated was that when a half full bottle of wine embarrassingly was knocked off the table and no fuss made. Two of the waiting on staff very quickly cleared up the mess, without complaint, comment or looks. Thank you at a make or break moment for saving our anniversary meal accidents can happen but how they are dealt with truly shows the calibre of the service, and your reactions speak highly.

Yum. Really tasty food, friendly and helpful staff, and a nice comfortable and relaxed atmosphere.
