  “We visited Benoli last night and it was a lovely meal, food excellent, maybe not cheap but everything was delicious. Service fast and responsive, and nice feel inside. Gave 4 star on atmosphere due to the lighting, which is a bit naked bulbs, and I find that slightly uncomfortable. Would highly recommend and happily go again. The Pasta was delicious and better than home cooking, you left feeling you'd had a meal that there wasn't anything to complain about, very good indeed”

  “Outstanding service. Waitress Caitlin was professional and helpful. Great food. Cooked to a really high standard and we were not waiting long. Menu is adapted to British taste. The restaurant was quiet and it was easy to talk. Located within about a 5 minute walk of either Castle Mall or Chantry Place car parks.”

  “A solid Italian dining experience with some real highlights, though not without a few areas for improvement. We started with a couple of starters that were overall enjoyable in flavour, but a bit uneven in execution. The croquettes were slightly dense, lacking the lightness you’d hope for, while with the other starter we had overcooked asparagus and what tasted like artichoke from a jar. The addition of raisins felt a little unnecessary. That said, the flavours were well thought through and enjoyable. For mains we had Ondine with beef cheek and pancetta ragu, as well as Casarecci with porcini mushrooms and stracciatella. These were well prepared and hard to fault from a technical perspective. Everything was cooked properly and nicely balanced, though perhaps missing that standout element that makes a dish truly memorable. The wine was definitely a highlight, complimenting the food beautifully. The main drawback, unfortunately, was the atmosphere. It was very noisy to the point where holding a conversation became difficult, which took away from the overall experience. All in all, a good restaurant with strong fundamentals - a few tweaks and it could easily become a great one.”

  “Easy to book and amazing quality of service, staff were very attentive and friendly. Area was very comfortable and made great use of space, acoustics were surprisingly good for the smaller floor area. The food was delicious too, perfect portion sizes and drinks paired perfectly. Great place to come for a special night. Thank you :)”

  “A birthday gift from our children took as back to Benoli having eaten there before. Once again we were not disappointed, deceptively simple looking dishes packed with flavour and depth. A streamlined menu meant choice was confined to …”

  “We came for a family meal a couple of weeks ago and oh my….the best Italian food we’ve had in a long time. The service was amazing from everyone that we met, stand out was our server Cait who went above and beyond throughout the meal plus added some personal recommendations we tried & loved too. Would highly recommend an looking forward to going back again!”
