Service can be a little rushy but that might just be me. They were always there when you needed them and were ready to help you out.
Food was delicious, especially the mussels.
I tried the limoncello for the first time and didn’t like it but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try it.
Definitely one of the best Italian restaurants out there.

My husband and I had never been here before but we’re so happy we finally tried it out! We arrived around 6:30 on a Friday night and got sat right away which was awesome. We started with a Caesar salad to share and it was really really delicious. I got the seafood pasta which had soooo much flavor and all of the seafood was cooked to perfection. The portions are huge, so both of us have leftovers which is a win! We got the cannolis and tirimasu for dessert and both were delightful. Our server Darin was super attentive and welcoming, and helped make our experience really nice 🙂 we will be back!!!

Great food. Large portions. The service was impeccable. A little loud, could use some baffling.
Update to my prior review…
I was seated at the bar with my Chihuahua in a inclosed back pack. I ordered wine and was browsing the menu when I was told my dog cant be there. Note: she has been there before with no trouble but on this night the owner (who is a stuffy opinionated little man) had us removed. I have never had a problem taking my service dog anywhere but this guy made a scene of it and demanded the paperwork (which is illegal). He threw my eye glasses in the trash when I was leaving and I never recovered them. He is not worth my time or yours. I simply went to Bricks where I was treated with respect.

We went to eat at Bene yesterday, and we had a pleasant experience. Our waiter was patient and did not rush or pressure our group of eight when we needed more time to order. We ordered the lasagna (good tomato flavor), pesto penne (lighter on the basil flavor, good parmesan, garlic, and cream flavor, and noodles were cooked perfectly), and a margherita pizza that was cooked very nicely. The servers were quick to bring us more water and drinks, and clear our dishes when we were done (10/10). The food is on the more expensive side, but the portions are generous. Our food came out in a reasonable amount of time and tasted freshly made. I would recommend this restaurant to others. Also, the bread they gave us with the pesto penne and lasagna was soo good! Very fresh and delicious.

First time I’ve been to Bene. Generous proportions. Noisy acoustics. A/C unable to cool the room on the 100-degree summer evening. Salad was tasty and unfortunately the high point of the meal. I should have ordered my pasta Al Dante. My wife said her clams were mushy and the sauce wasn’t to her liking and her pasta was also overcooked. Our dining partners, who’ve been here several times, loved their pizza. So +1 ⭐️ for that. They said that’s all they’ve ever had here. Noted.

Amazing food and very attentive service. Came on a Saturday night at 6pm and got sat right away.
Had the Vesuvio calzone, stuffed mushrooms, penne pesto (with chicken) and tiramisu for dessert and literally every single item was fantastic.

I love Bene! The food is consistently excellent; the bar has everything (they’ll even do a “French 75”). Their calzones are perfect: The dough is thin & they aren’t soggy.
The restaurant itself is comfy & the bar has beautiful woodwork. The service is impeccable. I wish they were open for lunch, but alas, only dinner is available.

We were looking for a restaurant since this is our 26th anniversary. My husband chose that place because he knows I love Italian food. When we walked in it was very busy. That’s usually a pretty good sign. However we did notice that all the tables that were open were tables for two and a few booths. We asked for a booth for our family of 3. We were told that we could not have a booth because booths are for four people. But there wasn’t a single table available for three people. My husband jokingly said “we’ll order for four people if we can have a booth. There are no tables for three people”. The girl said she would go ask. She returned and told us the manager said no. So my husband said “so you guys will not seat us then?” The girl said that’s correct. They didn’t ask or offer us to wait for a table they just basically told us we could not be seated. So we turned around and left. What kind of a restaurant only seats parties of two or four? You’re trying to say that nobody ever comes in with three people?

Went to dinner tonight with my father in law. Busy, so we sat at the Bar. One of the bartenders, Matthew, was great. But we were told no seafood & any pasta. Only had salads & pizza available. Apparently a chef quit 2 weeks ago and now the owner is the new chef and we were told that anything but Pizza & Salads would take over an hour. Will not return.
