Every item we have tried has been wonderful. Favorites are “The Woodsman”man’s the chocolate mousse cake!

I ate here Saturday, January 3, 2026 with friends. Until this meal, I have always loved the food. I had the pasta trio, my favorite many times. It was not anything like it was in the past. What has been done to the recipes? Please go back to the way your pasta used to be. There was hardly any tomato sauce and the sauce used to be delicious. It was over cooked and dried out. Way too much cheese and the cheese seemed so oily. My friend blotted the oil with napkins. I'll go back one more time as I really hope this restaurant will survive. All 3 of us felt like the food quality had declined significantly.

I made a order to go that was 110 in total 4 giant pizzas and a eggplant parm I requested the egg plant park with no cheese they made that wrong also as I was waiting for the order the staff was very disrespectful and made me feel unwelcome amd rushed by just waiting for them to give me my order and as well after I got home and noticed they incorrectly made it the lady was then very rude and defensive over the dish the pizza wasnt terrible but the customer service was absolutely terrible

Bullard, listen up—Benito’s is that girl. 🍝✨

I had the Woodsmen Penne and it was rustic, rich, and tasted like it knew what it was doing. Hubby went with the crawfish ravioli (bold choice, zero regrets), and our daughter crushed the cheese ravioli like a tiny Italian nonna in training.

Let’s talk about the bread for a second because WOW. Warm, perfect, dangerous. Paired with their dipping oil? I would’ve happily skipped the entrée and lived there.

The owner was genuinely kind—the kind of nice that makes you want to come back even hungrier.

Benito’s is a true hidden gem in our little town. Come hungry. Leave happy. Possibly loosen your jeans. Worth it. 🇮🇹❤️🍷

Such a cute family friendly place to eat. Serving size is huge, 3 adults ate off one spaghetti plate. It would be nice if they let senior adults order off the kids meal.

Very nice place but feels a little cramped the way it is set up.

I might seem a little harsh with my review but what is a reviews worth if it is not honest!
We visited this local eatery hoping that the historical reviews (4.7) were realistic, accurate & representative, alas they were not.
Let me begin with the ambience, it is unapologetically low key, no false airs or pretense, no exaggerated attempt to create ‘Little Italy’ just simple decor that is comfortable and well lit.
Let me preface my comments relating to the food, to speak to the service, it was attentive and informed, we could not ask for more in this regard.
Unfortunately this is the end of the positivity!
The food…was bland, lacking in any character or depth of flavor, while the portions were more than adequate. The mozzarella was plain and non descript, tomatoes that were not yet ripe ! and a balsamic glaze that lacked nuance or profile, just a thick sticky goop!
The pasta while well prepared was mono syllabic, the initial flavor was all there was to it.
The sauces were heavy and contained too much cream. My veal was so overcooked I thought it was LIVER, both in taste and texture! The brandy that was supposedly used in sauce preparation was MIA, not even a hint of it?
Such a shame, maybe some of the tomato based dishes might have fared better, I guess I will never know as I have no plans of returning.
We spent over $80 for an appetizer and two entrees and a glass of house wine.
We were not impressed!!
