I worked in Palatine over ten years ago and Artistic Cuisine was one of the office’s favorite restaurants. I left the area but was coming back that way to visit a cat cafe for my mother in law’s birthday and was looking for a place to have a nice celebratory lunch and boy was this it!

For an amazing dining experience and excellent service, try Bendita Cocina Argentinean Restaurant in downtown Palatine... you will be pleasantly surprised. The empanadas are a must... the sirloin, the chicken, and cheese with green onion are all delish. I had the Vacio (Argentinean top sirloin) with chimichurri, highly recommend it. Enjoy with a nice glass of Malbec, great wine list to choose from.

This was our first time eating at Bentita Cocina and Juliet helped us at our table. She introduced herself as the chef of restaurant and made suggestions of what to order. We tried the empanadas as an appetizer, and they were excellent. The Argentinian ribeye and salmon was the star entrées during our meal. We will definitely come back again and meet with Juliet again. Thank you for providing us with such great service and a wonderful meal.
