My son and his family took me out for dinner for my birthday and it was so great. Great service and phenomenal food as always. Our server was so sweet and although I told her no happy birthday stuff (was afraid they would sing) please she brought me a tiny little eclair with 1 little candle on it. So cute. I highly recommend Benvenuti's.

We made a reservation for a Saturday night and our table was ready to go as soon as we arrived. Food was delicious. I had the beef tenderloin, garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus. My husband had the lobster ravioli and we had calamari for an appetizer. The only issue we had was we were sat by the door to the kitchen so it was very busy and loud at times but that was minor. I would definitely recommend for a date night.

I've lived in Philly, eaten Italian all over the East Coast, and if you compare this with that it's bad. However, for Oklahoma it's pretty decent, and I'd say well above average. It's country Italian if I were going to call it something. It's nowhere near real Italian quality, but I have to lower my expectations when eating in this state, so if I do that, then it's a solid 3.Service was excellent, food was decent for Oklahoma. Food is definitely of better quality than say Olive Garden or Johnny Carino's, as it should be, but it's definitely not worth the prices, and it's definitely not going to compare if you're used to real Italian. Solid, edible, tastes pretty good, and the service was perfect.Nonna and Nonno wouldn't like it, but if you're not Italian, and think spaghetti and gravy out of the jar are good, then you'll think this is world class. If you like the horrific food at Sergio's, then this will blow your mind, as the quality is night and day. The portions are small, and greatly overpriced without the quality to match the price point.The decor is an attempt at stuffy, look down your nose decor, and the prices are as if they're fine dining, when it's not even close. No dress code to go with the stuffiness, as the guy next to us smelled like 4 day old BO and wore a greasy flannel shirt, trucker hat with curse words on it, and talked loudly about how hungover he was.

What a great local restaurant. Food is always great. We've eaten here at least a half a dozen times now so our impression is that it is consistently great.

"Benvenutis nailed it" First time dining here. Stopped in tonight for a quick birthday dinner and left very happy. The service was excellent and what's excellent service without excellent food? Thankfully, they compliment one another well. I can't wait to go back.

I can't say I ate there because I didn't. I'm just so disappointed in this place that I don't ever plan on giving them a dime of my money.Story. Last night, my husband and I were looking for a place to eat and have a drink. We thought this looked like a nice place to go. They were booked up. Understandable. As I was leaving, a man who was in obvious distress from the brutal cold that had gripped Norman was walking in. He said he was looking for food.I decided to stay and watch what happened. He asked a manager and was quickly dismissed. What? Surely, there's something they could do. This man had an injured and swollen hand and was freezing. I decided to speak on his behalf. Nope. The man pictured said "No" a second time.I realize establishments don't want homeless people sitting outside their doorsteps, but this was different. Cold, injured, and almost in tears.I ordered the man a pizza. No discount. Nothing. Unbelievable. I'll never give another cent to this place.This manager could have taken this man to the side and said, "We can do this one time, but don't come back. We don't normally do this."

Very nice elegant upscale restaurant. Had dinner with some friends in the red room which was small more private with 4 tables, it was different but very dark. Later on they turned on the lights to brighten it up. Bruschetta was the best I've had that I was taken back. Different than anywhere else but better. The pizza was very good I would've ordered something more unique but she was craving pizza, good heat and flavor. The lamb was very good but the potatoes that came with them were out of this world I mean just phenomenal. I was full but wasn't leaving any potatoes behind. We had a show and we were running short on time I asked the waitress how long it would take and she said I'll ask the chef to work on our meals first and they came right out with them shortly after. Great service, great food, great ambience would love to return.

I usually love this place but this past Friday night I treated my dearest friend dinner for her birthday. First I reserved a table in the glass wine room, we were seated right in front of the door. We asked to change, which did happen.We waited for too long to place our wine order, we had to ask for water refills, my friend hunted down our waitress for the bread, when we finally did order our food, our entrees came out over salted that we could not enjoy it. For a high end restaurant, I am so embarrassed of the experience. I will never suggest this restaurant again.
