The food was excellent and the service was exceptional. We really like the comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely return on our next trip to NYC.

Stopped here for lunch during San Gennaro Festival. I ordered the eggplant with linguine. Portion was spot on and my meal was hot and delicious. I really enjoyed the pasta sauce they make. Bread and butter came with the meal. Also ordered a glass of wine with my meal which was a perfect sized glass. Just make sure you look at your bill because they automatically added a tip; so you are not double tipping. We sat near a window which was a nice view of the festival.

I was famished the food was very filling . I love pasta. So I was in heaven . Great atmosphere. And the staff was super nice

With so many options in the neighborhood, you've just gotta go with "The Vibe" In this case, The Vibe was spot on. Cozy and comfy. Friendly, outgoing servers. Our server Milton was awesome. The menu really is the most complete one on the block. We meet the the owner on the way out. He was really nice. I ordered the Veal Benito. OMG! Tender veal with marinated portobello mushrooms and asparagus smothered in s deep, rich brown heavy that hit every flavor more you could want. I got spaghetti with tomato sauce on the side. That was amazing too. So simple, yet so perfect. I wish my homemade sauce tasted like that. I'll have to work on that.

This place is delicious. I came with my friend last month and we both got the Chicken Alfredo. The sauce and chicken were full of flavor. We also had Caesar salad + an espresso martini for me. They were really nice service-wise, and they have an outdoor seating option as well. It wasn't that busy the Saturday night we went but definitely worth the trip.

Our son's request for his 18th birthday was dinner in Little Italy and Benito One delivered! We were given a great seat by the open window, friendly service and everything we had we enjoyed. The birthday guy said it was the best chicken cutlet he's ever had. At the end of our meal they came with a complimentary dessert and sang...made his day. Would highly recommend; casual and comfortable atmosphere and great food.

After we hadnoyr cappuccino we walked further down the street and my cousin says if I was hungry we should eat at this place called Benito's. It's a place they always go to when her husband's aunt comes to visit from Buffalo! I was feeling hungry so I didn't mind trying this place. We got seated immediately and my cousin knew some of the people working there! We got the warm bread and then our calamari came out next followed by the chicken parmigiana with linguine lunch special. I ate half my lunch and was already full since I loved their calamari!! It was great! I would've taken out the rest of my food, but I had no room in my backpack and I didn't want the gifts I bought to smell like pasta!! Overall, this little place was awesome and I recommend it to everyone visiting Little Italy in NYC!
