The people say About this restaurants :
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.

Decent food and ambiance. We ordered Benarsi Kachori, shahi paneer. Kachori was delicious however quantity could have been better for the price. Shahi paneer was ok. Nice place to try if you’re around the area.
Recently visited Benares and was absolutely delighted by the experience. The food here is exceptional, particularly the Kachori, which was perfectly spiced and crispy. The Spicy Naan and Laccha Parantha were soft and flavorful, complementing every dish beautifully. The Amritsari fish and Chicken Kali Mirch were standout dishes, each offering a unique and rich taste that was simply unforgettable. But the highlight of the evening was the surprise from our waiter who brought out a delicious Gulab Jamun cake for my birthday, making the occasion even more special. The service throughout was impeccable, adding to an overall fantastic dining experience. Highly recommend Benares for anyone looking for exquisite Indian cuisine and top-notch service.
Came here on a Sunday night for a quick dinner. Staff were friendly and let us decide for while from their extensive list of menu. We got one butter chicken (one of the staff’s recommendations) and a vegetarian curry with bell pepper and cottage cheese. Rice was included and the curry makes you full faster than you think since it’s quite dense and rather oily. Want to try their appetizers next time.
Had a great experience. Aldi gave us great recommendations for a great meal. Had the melai kebab (chicken), keema mutter (minced lamb and peas), cheema thenga (shrimp in coconut curry) and the lacha paratha (like naan) all delicious. Will be back!!! Thanks for the experience Aldi and the staff!
