Benares

Outstanding food, exceptional service and Tasting menu is highly recommended.

The place was too loud, but the food was great.

Very nice meal. Enjoyed all the food and attentive service.

Appetizers and dinner was very good but drinks were not very good.

Loved most everything about our visit except for the noise volume - not a deal breaker but it was a bit loud in the restaurant. Exceptional in every other way. Thanks!!

Lovely atmosphere and great food. Highly recommended. We enjoyed it

exceeded expectations. Food was sensational, if I lived in London UK would be a frequent diner

Having eaten at other Michelin stared restaurants and tasted ‘ orgasmic food’ we were so disappointed. Nothing was exceptional - it was just ok. My taste buds were not overwhelmed. What a waste of £400. The local Indian is better.

Lovely place for elegant dining. Have been many times before. I recommend without hesitation.

Sophisticated decor, delicious food and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend

Beautiful ambiance and delicious food. Loved the overall experience. Thank you.

1st time this year, and never fails to deliver. Fellow diners equally delighted.

One of the best meals we ever had. We dined at various Michelin restaurants around the world. The flavors of Benares are still remembers. Each friend who asks where to eat in London gets my hottest recommendation

Had a nice delayed birthday dinner. The set menu is good value, starters/dessert were good. Mains were a bit simple and flavours less exciting (fish +mussels bit bland and venison nice but not special) which was slightly disappointing. Had a lovely evening though and birthday cake at the end was nice!

Truly a wonderful experience, will visit again once Covid is over

Amazing food and great service, would definitely recommend Benares for a great meal

We had an amazing time. The food and service were excellent and the cocktails weren't bad either. Thank you

Amazing food and amazing service, super friendly. We couldn’t stop talking about the food all day and we’ve already recommended to all of our friends and family.

Lovely meal for a celebration. Excellent food and service. Thank you

We liked the food quite a lot. And the service was excellent.

A truly exceptional dining experience in every respect. Quality of food, attention to detail and service from staff was excellent.

Unbelievable experience as always. Impeccable service with incredible food. Wonderful

Good food and hospitality. Would certainly recommend. Will come back again

As a first time visit for my wife's birthday, (she has the cookbooks and watched the TV shows!) we were not disappointed at all. Having been to Varanasi this completes our journey. The service was impeccable without being intrusive and the flavours of the food sublime. We chose the set menu and wine pairings and were delighted with the quality of the dishes. With cocktails this wasn't going to be a cheap lunch, but we felt every penny was well spent. Looking forward to going back and trying more dishes!

Was very good service and food. Really enjoyed the meal.

Amazing place with very authentic Indian dishes..MUST visit for anyone looking for a great ambience, good service and pleasant evening

average food.. not worth another trip. it is also too expensive for such average food.

Nice place excellent food charming service Great place to be

Good but not good enough value for the money. Expensive

Excellent food and service. Fresh and beautifully served. A true winner in London.

Great service and delicious food. I would highly recommend visiting.

Great food and great service - thank you 😊 😋

The Walters were selling too much. Food a bit disappointing

Amazing restaurant, definitely one to visit aleast ones. Great vegetarian food options. Very friendly staff. I went for my wedding anniversary, and when booking only I must have mentioned it to them and on the day we had a little surprise dessert from them on the house. It was lovely. I would definitely visit again. VKV

Fantastic experience. The food was delicious and imaginative: a modern twist on Indian cuisine.

The food was delicious,the drinks very good too. However,we were looking for a quiet evening which was interrupted by the waitress spilling drinks on my husband. The staff did apologize but you wouldn't expect this in such a restaurant. The main dining area was very noisy and one had to shout to be able to be heard.

Food was absolutely delicious and has amazing flavours and textures. It was difficult to hear the waiters descriptions of the food - they all spoke with very soft voices and I had to ask them to repeat descriptions most times. Other than that I would recommend the restaurant unreservedly. We had a great meal.

Amazing and creative, modern Indian food. Lots of hard surfaces make it noisy when busy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Fantastic cocktails before and during dinner. The food was amazing and the service was incredible. Benares, you have it spot on! We’re back on the 2nd November!!

Such an amazing experience. Will be going back very soon, after I get back from my business trip.

Great service and an amazingly tasty food .. highly recommended!

The food was excellent, we’ll prepared, with a lot of finesse The only problem was we had to wait for 30 minutes for our table

Another excellent meal at Benares.3rd visit of the year & will definitely be back again!

Great food, service and made it special for a Birthday celebration. Will revisit for sure.

Best Indian food ever. However, unrestrained screaming kids and loud smartphone games sound effects abound in this fine dining restaurant, albeit in lunch time.

Service 2nd to none tasting menu food was amazing tasty dishes time and time again

Great quality food. Outstanding service. Need more choices on wine by the glass. Wine prices on the high side when compared to sexy fish

Fabulous service paired with great food made for a great lunch

Fusion food was interesting but service was a tad slow. Waiters were friendly.

Fabulous food,great service. Wonderful good presentation and interpretation. Loved it!
