Bistro Benito - Kensington and Chelsea

Years ago, our company used to attend a trade show at Earls Court. One night, after a few drinks, we discovered Benito Bistro. The food was delicious and the hospitality was outstanding. We loved the layout and decor of the restaurant. The service was excellent. Benito and his son Simone made us feel like family from the moment we arrived until we left. The trade show location has changed over the years, but whenever we are in London, we always make sure to visit our Italian friends at Benito Bistro. We hope you get the chance to experience it for yourself! Thank you very much, Mark.

Despite the attractive entrance that gives the impression of a small traditional Italian restaurant, be prepared for a very unpleasant food experience. Not only is the owner somewhat intrusive (to put it mildly), but the dishes were of poor quality and not at all representative of fine Italian cuisine. They were overly spiced (especially with pepper), masking the true flavors of the food. I would recommend dining at Theo Restaurant in the Indigo hotel instead, where you can enjoy a serious and delicious Italian meal.

We chose this restaurant near our hotel based on its positive reviews, and we were not disappointed. The waitress and chef gave us a warm welcome and attentive service. As we only eat halal, they provided us with a variety of vegan dishes and halal chicken options. The cozy decor added to the pleasant atmosphere, and we found the prices to be quite reasonable.

Bistro Benito was near our hotel and the reviews were very good so we decided to give it a try. Food was average, decor dated but service excellent.

Tonight I had a pizza which was thin crust and exceptional in flavour. I traditionally order the veal here which is super. Service is fantastic.
