    Our child had a severe case of food poisoning from a pasta dish served on this past late Sunday morning. He was very closed to being sent by the resort doctor into the ER. Clearly, we should have gone to a brunch place where they did not serve contaminated leftover meat.

    Party of 4. No tables. But a drunk woman who was finished with dinner was sprawled over two tables. I asked the waiter if we could use one of her tables and push it together with another table. The waiter asked the woman and she said No. she was reading her book and drinking. There were other two tops but the waiter could not push them together. I asked if he wanted us to go eat someplace else. He shrugged. I said he was not helping us. We went someplace else.

    Benitto's has amazing sandwiches and the different sauces and dressings they give on the side are really good. Great place for lunch or relax in the evening for a few drinks and a bite to eat. Very relaxing atmosphere with big sofas and non traditional style seating . They do have regular tables out side too . A great place .

    i've had food from here 4 times. the first time i had their food was through uber eats. 0/5 it was a pretty bad meal. i ordered the pastrami and it just wasn't like an authentic pastrami. i also ordered a salad thinking it would be a side salad but it could've been a whole meal. there is no information or sauce selections on uber eats so i didn't know i could order any so they included 2 or 3 that weren't good on what was supposed to be a pastrami. but despite the sauces, the meat itself just wasn't consistent with an authentic pastrami. *i would recommend for the restaurant to list all of their sauce options and bread options for the paninis on uber eats, and also on their physical menu. the second experience, i had just finished a tour with the marina as the start/end point. i walked over to Benitto's from the tour office. if i had known this was the same place as the uber eats order- i would not have dined here. but i'm glad i didn't know because the meal was wonderful. i ordered the minestrone soup and smoked salmon panini which my tour guide recommended- and it was amazing. i enjoyed adding sauces to the panini: pesto, black olive, mustard, garlic. third time was uber eats too but i knew to specify in the instructions that i wanted the smoked salmon on toasted ciabatta and i asked for the sauces that i enjoyed. also ordered an iced latte which was good. fourth time was when i had a couple hours before i needed to be at the airport.. i didn't want to be gross before my flight and this restaurant has A/C and even though it gets a bit warm inside, it's still much cooler than every other restaurant i've been to. ordered the smoked salmon panini and a cappuccino. a very delicious final meal in PV.

    Service is horrible. Really slow.... it took 50 minutes to get our appetizer... Food is just ok. The stand out here are the sauces! After eating here several times, I've decided it's not on my short list any longer...

    I havnt had a meal here yet I didn't love. Great food, excellent staff, wonderful atmosphere. Definitely one of my favorites

    90% of the time they cancel my order on Rappi after I wait 30-45 minutes. Super cool!

  • 5/5 Nora D. 5 months ago on Google
    It's all about the panini here. I got vegetarian with ciabatta, my husband got pastrami with focaccia. Both turned out great. You get 4 dipping sauces, take advantage, they are all fantastic and different and each totally changes your sandwiches' vibe. Our server Antonio was awesome, very attentive and fun to talk to. Plus there was a live saxophone player. I was in the mood for Mexican food but ended up here and am really glad. Probably coming back soon...

    Cute little place. Friendly staff. They had a live violin player when I was there and she was awesome. Expect to find more Italian food on the menu than Mexican.

    Tony was happy to speak Spanish with us despite him speaking much better English than we do Spanish. The sauces are lots of fun. Generous portions, live music, what's not to like?

  • 5/5 Tracy B. 7 months ago on Google
    Spent the day at the marina and this was our first stop. Food was delicious, especially the mahi mahi carpaccio! Service and atmosphere was good. Prices seem reasonable for the location. Would definitely return.

  • 1/5 Scott U. 1 year ago on Google
    Pasta was well over cooked. No flavour. I believe it was just microwaved. So many great options near by.

  • 5/5 Mike N. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing fresh pasta. All was fantastic. Must try in Marina !

    I would definitely go again. It's a good place to get eggs made in a variety of styles from around the world. Has a continental European vibe. Good value for the money.

    Great food! Good prices. Good service. They had live Jazz music on the Tuesday night.

  • 3/5 alastair N. 1 year ago on Google
    So first off the food was excellent…had roast beef sandwich and it was great however the service let this place down massively. I asked to change the bread on the sandwich…that didn’t happen…ok no big deal…I asked for ice with my OJ…took 15 mins to get by which time i had finished sandwich. Ordered dessert…Turimasu…25 minutes later hasn’t come…go into restaurant to ask…asked another waiter again 5 minutes later…still sat here waiting so writing this review…very poor service to what was otherwise great food…but wasting 40 minutes of my time for what is a pre prepared desert is not acceptable Also no apology for the delay…with no one checking on my table throughout my stay

    Benitto's is a small bistro at the marina that offers authentic dishes of exquisite quality. The Greek salad and the beef carpaccio are my favorites. Aside from a nice selection of wines, they serve a fine dirty martini with as many olives as you crave. And I tend to eat my martinis.

    I love this place and their food is just delicious. Its menu is worth tasting

  • 5/5 Marko S. 2 years ago on Google
    Best food in the marina area. Paninis are great, and big! Big variety of sauces, and great service and employees there!

  • 5/5 Vanessa L. 4 years ago on Google
    I love Benitto's! They have the best paninis in town! Make sure to try the basil and chipotle dressing, they accentuate the flavor of your panini, a glass of wine and listen to the music of the performers they usually have. The location is very convenient in a trendy neighborhood.

  • 5/5 Shannon Aldrich P. 4 years ago on Google
    Wonderful!! Excellent service from Tony, His recommendations for food and beverages were all perfect. Cocktails were balanced and tasty. Good wine choices. Carpaccio, salads, paninnis- dinner here a few times, never disappointed. Plus... live music and original artwork! Very friendly and social vibe. This place is super special. Worth a trip, if you’re anywhere in vicinity.

👍👍 Excellent service and food for this night out. Looked like a great place for a special occasion (I was dining alone). The staff is very attentive, and the food is great.
