Benares - New York City

We had a wonderful time at this restaurant. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasing, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Ramita took great care of us and ensured that our experience was flawless. She provided us with great food recommendations and guided us through the menu. We highly recommend this place.

We ordered dal Makhni, Malai Kofta, and Kadhai Paneer. All of them tasted great, but the staff was limited and the service was quite slow. The washrooms were clean but not well-maintained. The ambiance was nice, so definitely worth a try.

This restaurant is a hidden gem located in the heart of New York, very close to the World Trade Center. They offer a fantastic selection of Indian cuisine and a variety of liquor. We enjoyed dishes such as okra, lentils, bread, jackfruit biryani, rasmalai, and moong dal halwa, along with my favorite Old Monk drink. The ambience is nice, the food is great, and the service is very good. I would give this restaurant 5 stars.

Authentic indian food in Lower Manhattan. Delicious. Drinks are strong as well.

The flavors were rich and distinct! Overall very delicious food and comfortable atmosphere. Lots of seating options, either cozy booths, spacey tables, or seating at the bar. The waiter was exceptionally friendly. The Lamb Kourma was my favorite dish. Dessert was on the sweet side, but delicious. However, the bathrooms were in a strange location and not very clean. Also, we had to ask for the water to stay at our table when we got our drinks.
