Da Benito - Union

Any negative review of this restaurant comes from someone who clearly lacks an understanding of food. I've dined out extensively and appreciate a wide range of cuisines, yet I find myself returning here time and again. Nothing else in the area even comes close. The service, the food, the wine, and the cocktails are all exceptional—nearly flawless. Their seafood is impressively fresh, and the pasta is cooked to perfection, served at just the right temperature to allow for ideal cooling over the initial moments at the table. The attention to detail in every dish (and I’ve tried nearly all of them) is truly remarkable. I can’t praise this restaurant enough—it's simply the best in New Jersey!

Any negative review of this restaurant comes from someone who clearly doesn't understand food. I dine out frequently and appreciate a variety of cuisines, but I always end up returning here. There's nothing else like it in the area. The service is exceptional, and the food, wine, and cocktails are genuinely outstanding—close to perfection, in fact. The seafood is incredibly fresh, and the pasta is cooked al dente, served at just the right temperature to finish cooking it as soon as it's on your table. The attention to detail in every dish (and I have tried almost all of them) is truly remarkable. I can't praise this restaurant enough! It's the best in New Jersey!

The first time here for a family dinner with my man and son. we really enjoyed it. jesus was our waiter and he was amazing, friendly and personal. he made great recommendations to entrées and desserts. he has been in the restaurant for 20 years and is understandable on the menu. I had the manzo, meerrote filet mignon with wild mushrooms red wine reduction. it was perfectly boiled and tenderly my son ordered the gondolas, delicious. we ordered a bottle duckhorn (merlot), one of my favorites. for dessert we enjoyed the homemade mango sorbet (personally popular if they wish a refreshing dessert), warm valrhona chocolate cake with vanilla bohneneis and carrot cake with coffee ice cream. I can't wait to get back!

My family has been dining at Da Benito for years, and the food is always exceptional. The atmosphere truly captures the essence of New York City. However, what really sets Da Benito apart is the warm, familial hospitality provided by the Benito family! They treat each guest like part of their own family. I recently brought my best friend from the Midwest, who had never experienced a place like Benito before. Even months after our delicious meal, Nick Carpenter still fondly talks about it in DFW, reminiscing about the incredible experience we had.

Absolutely amazing eating! their meatballs are absolutely amazing. great food and great service. benito is the best. so humble and has some great creations.
