Ms Helene: Restaurant week winter 2016 menu was a winner for value and quality. Escargot in garlic butter, roasted cod with fried capers and croutons and ice cream for dessert. Each dish prepared and played well
Joshua Boggs: Great restaurant, top-notch service, solid cocktails, and extensive wine list. Really liked the Benoit Burger.
Eater: The bar room is a cool place for after-work cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, and on the weekends, Benoit serves one of the best brunches in Midtown (it includes a dessert buffet). [Eater 38 Member]
