Benito's Italian Cafe and Pizzeria

If i could give more than 5 stars, I would. This place has always been a favorite but with new ownership it was outstanding. The food is to die for and the new owner is just the sweetest! We will definitely be visiting more often!

We were never greeting at the door and after about 5 minutes of just awkwardly standing and watching other eat we just found a table and set down. The place is under new management so the lunch buffet that is advertised outside is no longer available. The manager greeted and checked on all of the tables but ignored our table. The waitress did get out drink orders within 10 minutes but that was it. The warm inviting atmosphere is gone. We actually ended up leaving without ordering. I did hear others say the food was great. Unfortunately I wasn't able to experience it.

The food was wonderful and the service was wonderful. We had been travelling all day and came in pretty close to closing, and the staff was still absolutely amazing. Definitely stop in, if you're nearby.

Excellent food and fantastic service. The staff was extremely efficient and helpful and made my son's birthday special. The live entertainment was great as well.

Dinner tonight was awesome!! Eggplant Parmesan, chicken marsala ... spaghetti with meatballs and linguine....all great! Topped off with Italian wedding cake! We will be back!!!

If I could give this place zero stars I would. I have never written a bad review, well there's a first time for everything. For starters we were not greeted upon entry like before. The atmosphere was dull and unwelcoming before it felt like you were walking into someone's warm and welcoming home. We noticed the manager greet everyone who came in and cater to every table but ours. The lunch buffet is no longer available although it's BOLDY displayed outside. People are raving about the food but unfortunately the customer service left a bad taste in my mouth so we left. I wish the previous owners would come back they were amazing..so disappointing because this used to be one of my favorite places.

My wife and I always go here. It's our favorite place for Italian food. The bread is awesome. The sausage, peppers, and ziti is so good. She gets the veal saltimbocca. Loves every bite.

The best pizza place in Jacksonville..

Great pizza for super cheap! And the staff are all top notch. My wife and I have been going to Al's for years - we never knew this place was a full service (as in ‘full bar') restaurant or we would have come here instead.

Our first time here, and we'll definitely return. Their garlic rolls are INCREDIBLE and our entrees were just as good. Clean, relaxing atmosphere with good service. Love that it's a local place and just another chain. We'll for sure be recommending and returning!

George is the best! Excellent food! Excellent customer service.

Me and my hubby eat here often. The restaurant is clean. The prices are affordable. They have a really good buffet during the week. The food is DELICIOUS!!

First time eating there last night. We had lasagna & meat ravioli. We both agreed the pasta sauce could use some flavor. Rolls & salad were tasty. Atmosphere was nice & service was very attentive. May try the pizza, if we return.

My go to place for take-out pizza. Consistently good and at a great price. Benitos pizza is larger than others and the quality stays consistent. The toppings are also premium and generous.

We tried Benito's for the first time last night. What a treat! The portions were generous, the service outstanding. Everyone loved their food. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. We've just found our favorite neighborhood restaurant!
