Reviews of Cafe Benedicte
Michael Pavlov
Amazing! The fact that you can have lunch items starting at 10am is the best thing for me. The lamb was delicious, and the lobster bisque was one of the best I have tried. Overall, there were 7 of usz and everyone enjoyed everything they had.
victoria
Always enjoy my experience here. A warm greeting and excellent service, the food is always delicious and I never have a problem with anything. Highly recommend coming here for any hour of the day.
Christopher Landry
First time here, my wife and I were amazed at how great the food was. She ordered an Angus Burger and I ordered a Gyro plate. The staff was amazing too, especially our waiter Eric who was very informative and attentive to us. Will definitely tell my family and friends about this gem! Definitely coming back.
Kathryn Vincent
This is my third time here tonight and the food still has not failed me. I have had the chicken piccata the lamb Gyro, the Greek salad they can’t go wrong here. Everything is delicious and Fahed. The manager is awesome very friendly and welcoming to all customers. this has become our number one go to place for my husband and I.
Julysblue
I highly recomend come here with your favorite people to talk.
We visited the place in the evening. Iluminations was low light and the music was live piano. Really great ambiance for a warming meeting. There were many regular customers around.
For food we tried the Greek Salad, the Lobster Bisque and the Grilled Asparagus Sub. Ingredients tasted fresh and full of flavor.
The menu has a good variety of dishes, from small apetizers, healthy salads, casual burguers to more complex gourmet dishes.They also have a good variety of beers and wines.
They have a happy hour from 4pm to 7pm. Very convenient to know for my next visit. But, I also would like to try their famous brunch.
Jonathan Boring
Yummy food. Waiters refill your water too much lol almost every 5 mins. Our glasses were never less than 2/3 full, a few times I didn’t drink any water he filled it more.
Excuse me, but that’s enough water.
Karla *Side Hustle Queen* Selman
Great place for tasty Mediterranean food. I had the gyro and it was super flavorful! The service was top notch. They provided great recommendations when asked and the atmosphere was warm, welcoming and personal. Very nice for a date night or small business meeting as you can have conversation without being drowned out by restaurant noise.
Baby Grant
Food was good...gumbo is not cajun style...dessert was to go with sauce cup of icecream. They did have a Christmas 🎄 and a piano.
leila
I have been there a couple of times and I can confidently recommend the place! It is bery pacious, well-decorated and clean inside and the staff is obviously trained. They are vey polite and know theie job very well. The food is also very high quality and there is plenty to choose from on the menu. The menu deink is also various enough and drinks are professionally prepared. You should totally give ot a try!

Ok.. So I wanted to wait a few days to do an honest review on Cafe Benedicte. Firstly, I brought my S/O here for his birthday as a surprise. The inside is nice but we wanted to be seated outside. Sadly the outside deck needs a little love to be equal to what you get inside. It's almost like two restaurants, inside little Italy, outside like a place you'd watch football at. So, based on reviews, they said they had the best Paella in town.. Im sorry to say that we also weren't blown away by the food as we had hoped for... For the prices you pay, we expected a little more love and care in the food. The Farfelle Luigi I ordered had no seasoning what so ever I even asked for salt and pepper (which came in tattered salt and pepper shakers also surprising). I also asked for softer garlic bread which was never brought out... And my S/O paella had big chunks of peppers in it, over done rice and tasted of the kind of sauce you'd get out of a ravioli can. And the plates weren't hot, something you'd expect with pasta dishes. I ended up spending $80 plus tip and he didn't even take his paella home and I gave my leftovers to my mother.. All in all.. I give the place and food 3.5. The waiter was kind and staff was attentive.. They just need more love and time put in the food and a redecoration of the patio area.
Donald Jefferys
This place has an amazing Red Fish and Shrimp dinner! Great atmosphere with live music and good drinks.
Anila Rahim
Loved the yummy food. Peri peri chicken, lamb chops were delicious. Customer service was supered. He was so excited to help us and serve us. Definitely going back for live music from 6-9.
Leander Francis
We were celebrating our grandmother's 85th birthday. The food, service, and atmosphere were perfect for the occasion. Even my 12 years asked to go back, and he's a picky eater. We'll definitely be back.
JoAnne Owens
Absolutely wonderful. Great atmosphere, quiet, good service. We came for brunch, but will definitely be back for dinner. I had the avocado toast, which came with poached eggs and was served over greens and fresh fruit. Eggs were perfectly cooked. My husband had the Eggs Benedict with hash browns. Delicious and the hash browns were crispy. A basket of bread with two jellies was served beforehand, reminiscent of our European vacations. They have a selection of tea, and serve it with a pot of hot water which was enough for three cups of tea
Gina McCann
Always a fantastic experience! The owner is always present and ensures he greets every guest personally. The menu is top notch and the selection of wines are tasteful.
B Richard
Cafe Benedict is one of my favorite restaurants on the westside of Houston. We dined at Cafe Benedict for a Corporate Dinner. Everyone enjoyed their meal selection. All plates except one empty and i think that was because she was leading the conversation and her food became room temperature m. The food was Absolutely exquisite.
Jim Howerton
The food was great but it took 40 minutes to get it. I won't knock the service because of the kitchen. As with so many places, the wine and spirits are hugely marked up. Get I t to go and have wine or a cocktail at home.
Deepak Kamnani
Great Service, very accommodating staff. The food is unbelievably good, very good variety of coastal mexican to mediterranean. The Peri Peri is to die for, and the desserts are great too. I've had great experiences here.
Laura Booth
The ambiance was relaxing especially with the window covering setting the stage. The server was friendly and very helpful when we asked questions. The food was delicious!!.
Destiny Riley
Definitely a hidden gem. I ordered the salmon, and it was perfect! They had a piano player, which made it a really romantic night. We'll be back!
Hadi Beigi (هادی بیگی)
My wife picked up this place for our first Valentine's day celebration after we married and I kinda like it. Beautiful place, good food and good people made our special day even more romantic and lovely.
Cassidy Acuff Williams
If i could give it a 4.5 i would. This small restaurant puts out food with incredible flavor. Our brunch was very tasty and the lentil soup was excellent. Very kind staff and quiet place to chat. Great experience
Ryan A. Stephen
Great service and friendly staff. Great design on the inside you wouldn't imagine before walking in. They have patio where you can smoke, drink and eat. I recommend the mussels sautéed in white wine, garlic and scallions, paired with a Stella Artois and their bread and butter...
Staci Larkin
I came for brunch. Sadly, found a 3-inch long, black hair in my food. The staff quickly replaced my breakfast and it was delicious (and taken off the bill). The staff was so attentive and friendly. The manager even made my friend a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice - which wasn't even on the menu.
Alice Hastings-James
Consistently perfect! Vanessa serves with a beautiful smile. Fernando Lezama's Latin jazz is super relaxing. I look forward to making it a regular dining experience.
Carole Dupre
We dined out on the back deck. It was quiet and the service was top shelf. We ordered the lamb shank and the pork chop. Delicious! Even better was the Brazilian Monk we each had for dessert. We felt treasured.
Nicole
Today was my first visit food was really good. Service was a little slow as far as waiter coming back to check on the table. Really good cranberry mimosas and the meat lovers skillet was bomb.
WESWW05
Gem of a place. Very nice for dinner whether it business or loved ones. Good food, good service and easy parking.
Benita Lee
Went to an Internations event and was wowed by the food here. Bacon wrapped asparagus was to die for and they even had live music. Need to go back for prime rib night. Service was friendly, very customer focused.
Rhonda Reyes
Wonderful little hidden gem off Memorial. Service is spectacular.
Excellent food selections for everyone including Vegan and vegetarian options. Taste was delicious! Definitely plan to work my way through the menu 😉. Excellent wine selections too🍷 …
Dan Parisian
Decent food, but a bit expensive. For an appetizer, I ordered the hummus and pita, and only got one pita, but a lot of hummus; it cost $1 for an extra pita.
Stephanie Nguyen
I made a reservation here for 11:45 brunch, looks like they were not packed at all. The restaurant is very clean and classy, I really liked the Christmas tree and the piano and the background for the windows. It gave it a really nice warm atmosphere. I got sat immediately and our server did not seem very educated with the menu. He constantly had to check for the answers to our questions. these were just basic questions like is there a smaller version or an ala carte version of the French toast. Or is the crepe with two different kinds or do we get to choose. When we got a coffee refill, the other server didn't grab the cup, instead he refilled the cup on the table and spilled on to the table, almost hitting my boyfriend's hand.
They served a plate of sliced bread with butter, citrus jam, strawberry jam and it was warm. I love the jam. I can definitely tell that these are homemade. The butter was extremely soft and this was great because I was starving at this moment.
I ordered the following:
Meat lovers skillet with grits
Hawaiian French toast with hash browns
Crepe duet
The prices are pretty reasonable. I asked if the skillet had chopped potatoes or were they hash browns, and the service said it was chopped potatoes. This was incorrect. This dish was basically hash browns with bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, sausage, ham, bacon topped with 2 eggs. I was a little disappointed about the potatoes, but the flavors were surprising. I had a very nice smokey taste throughout the old dish and nice bites with vegetables and meat. The eggs were cook nicely, not overdone, and it all came out pretty quickly. This is a very hearty meal, you can get full off of this so maybe share it if you have someone who doesn't have a big appetite. We got this with grits and They were disgusting. There was no salt, basically tasted like rice porridge. 4/5
The Hawaiian French toast with hash browns I wish they added a protein to this meal. I ended up eating the skillet because it lacked that. Honestly, I definitely recommend this dish entirely. you really didn't even need syrup because it was already very sweet. The bread was extremely soft but perfectly panned fried. I liked how they put the butter on the side too. It was just really delicious. keep in mind that the hash browns are not crispy at all. You're basically getting the look of hash browns steamed. It lacked salt but thankfully they had that at the table. 5/5
The crepe duet had a nice flavor to them. The one with ham was probably my favorite because the Hollandaise sauce was in need of citrus. I think I would ask for the Hollandaise sauce on the side next time because the crepe in general with the chicken, mushrooms, spinach were perfect. The fruit or fresh and delicious. 4/5
Overall, this is a really nice place. I am wishing that next time I come back that they have a pianist. The atmosphere was very chill, great for people watching, and the food was presentable for sure.
Christy Orosco
Oh my gosh I have found my place. We had breakfast and can’t wait to come for dinner. Light fresh and cooked to perfection nice staff, upscale atmosphere. Plenty of room between tables to have a private conversation.
Jessica Gomez
This is the best place I ever ate excelente service the food was delicious 🤤 I’m definitely coming again and the deserts omg out this world I had the lamp chops the best lamps a ever had I coming back to try all the menu everything looks delicious 🤤 …
Anthony Dominguez
The service is phenomenal and to top it of the food is delicious. Couldn't stop eating the bread with the butter. They had live music from a Venezuelan name Fernando. Smooth romantic music that created a relaxing ambiance.
Itunu Adebola
We ordered four dishes and the all tasted good. It's my first time trying paella and I think it's good. I'll compare with another restaurant later. However, I think they can shave off like $5 from their prices. Just a thought. But I'll visit again when I'm in the area.
Umer Khan
Have been to this place for breakfast and they have a great menu. The food looks and tastes great. We ordered the Eggs Benedicte and Meat lovers muffins. The eggs Benedicte was standard but the Muffins were good.
Stephani
Eric, Richard, and Vishad are like family. 14 years in the making and will continue to wine and dine here for as long as I can. Food is always hot and delicious. Presentation is everything. Customer service is always on point.
Keep up the positive vibes guys! Miss you guys already!
Kayla Broussard
Had brunch here today and really enjoyed it. The food was great and the atmosphere was nice. Much less noisy than most brunch spots we've been to. Highly recommend!
charlotte davis
The food and service was wonderful! I had scrambled eggs & smoked salmon. And my Bloody Mary was spicy and delicious! We will return! Our waitress, I believe her name was Amber, was AWESOME!
Michael Parker
Had a big family dinner in a private dining area. The service was outstanding and the food was excellent
Brick Owens
,5 stars for atmosphere and service. I had the Eggs Benedict. 3 stars for the ensemble. Poached Eggs perfect... Hash browns perfect... The ham was not flavorful and added nothing to the collective flavors. The hollandaise sauce was very light but blended well with the runny egg yokes. The English muffins were way too thick and acted more like sponge cake. My wife loved her avocado toast. We'll be back for the Mediterranean dinner menu.
Enyi Ej
Clean atmosphere. Nice staff, quite friendly. Made my friends and i laugh here n there.
Food was good. Had the stuffed crepe.
The only reason why its not 5 stars is because the service was a bit slow. We sat and after a while, we got up and helped ourselves to the menu.
Feliciahtown1
We had items from the brunch menu, which were really good. I had the chorizo tacos, but they were so filling.. 2 came with the order and I took one home. We had an item not on the menu: stuffed mushroom caps which were outstanding.
Rebecca Skachok-Weidig
Great restaurant. They accommodate every need you have, very polite, very professional very nice place to go.
A S
I and my fiance went for brunch at 11am on a Saturday.
The ambiance of the Cafe is nice--it has good interior decorations and energy. The staff is relatively attentive and friendly.
However, that's where our enjoyment stopped. We ordered two simple dishes. It took over 30 minutes for our food to get out. This isn't necessarily too long, but it wasn't busy and our dishes were simple enough to be prepared in less than 20 minutes at home. My finances eggs Benedict was bland and not cooked properly. My dish was fine, but ultimately underwhelming given the price.
And that really summarizes our feelings about Cafe Benedicte: underwhelming.
Ruslan Drobot
One of the best restaurants I’ve visited for the last 5yrs. Highly recommend!
Carlos Estevez
The place is very cozy. Menu is simple, but has options for every taste.
The service was fairly quick for lunch with the place occupancy above half it's capacity.
My food was OK. Presentation and taste were average. Very salty for a marsala sauce. The pasta was further cooked than expected. Not al dente, sadly.
I would repeat the experience for a second opportunity review.
Naked SKN
I've been coming here for years - Vashon and his staff make my dinner as if I were eating at home. FAMILY. LOVE IT.
David Mertins
We visited on Friday night. Very nice evening, piano playing near bar area, but we could still have conversations with our friends. Good drinks, excellent food, too many great items on the menu, so it took us a while to order. I had Capelllini Seafood, my wife had the Couscous, I’d recommend both. We had reservations, and by 7:00 the restaurant was
We never felt rushed, and spent 3 hours there including drinks, dinner and dessert. Highly recommended.
Eki Amedu
Food was fantastic and made with love. Great service.
Selena C
The staff was welcoming and accommodating. The food was well prepared and reasonably priced. Overall, we enjoyed our time here. :)
Teri Lloyd
This place is AMAZING! We scheduled a private room for 16 people and was not disappointed. No room fees or limited menu. The food was wonderful and there was a wide variety for everyone. The service kept the waters filled and the drinks coming. We were well taken care of. The chef even came out at one point to check on us. Thank you Cafe Benedicte. You made our evening extra special and a goodbye party a night to celebrate our friend in style. We will definitely keep coming be back!!
Andrew Johnson
The customer service and wait staff were phenomenal!!! Super friendly folks here.
The place was clean, organized, and has a more romantic, sit-down type setting.
The food is made to order so it takes a bit to come out. We got the ceviche as an appetizer. The citrus flavor overpowers the dish a bit but it was still pretty good. My wife got the lobster risotto. This unfortunately was a hard pass. My wife complained of a strong smell and she didn't finish the dish and had it sent back. I had the gyros with fries. It was good but nothing to write home about, unfortunately. The tzatziki sauce also had an overpowering flavor of what seemed to be cucumber.
All in all, the service/wait staff is really good. We would go back but it would probably be just to have drinks at the bar.
Danny G
Great vibe and service. We had a nice breakfast and will definitely be coming back.
Lynette McQueen
Lovely restaurant! Food was great and staff was attentive, also had a beautiful grand bar.
Hedieh Pournik
great selection on their menu, food is always fresh and tastes great. We have been coming here three times now and have plans to make it a once a week dinner option. Highly recommend them. Service is also super.
Andre Malheiros
The food is really great, very well served, I mean... The quantity.
The entire team are very nice and the environment is very welcoming.
I had a really good dinner wirh my family.
Good Job folks, next time I will have the lasagna, my daughter got it an I tried... Was incredibly good.
Will be back soon.
Alciades Velasquez
Great place for a casual bite. Service is attentive and the food is delicious, simple, and plentiful.
Edson Sebastiao
The art of cooking requires above all dedication and heart. For sure the chef did not forget about the important recipes on this epicurean delight Lobster and mushroom risotto.
Chad Carter
Stumbled across this place and they had great food and great atmosphere, but service was the highlight
Christopher Massara
This place is amazing and a hidden gem here in Houston
Mutant Donkey
This is a great place for a date or a family meal. Good elegant atmosphere and very professional staff. I have not had a bad dish here and the price is reasonable for the quality of the food. I highly recommend it.
B D
Super service, great atmoshpere. Lamb shank and paella were WOW!
Amanda Bohn
Went here for the first time and will for sure be coming back. Not only is the food fantastic but the place is very nice, clean, and the staff provides excellent service.
My server even sang for us since we were celebrating 2 birthdays and she sang so beautifully. It's little things like that that really make a place stand out.
LYNN MCCLENDON
Enjoyed happy hour. Loved the piano player.
Ambience is wonderful. No complaints.
Try it! We did not eat, but love the food.
Ariany Moura
Amazing place! Great food, impeccable service.

Piano playing is awesome, food and service excellent. Wonderful place to enjoy a great meal and listen to wonderful music. This place is a 10 star 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 …
Belgian Chokolat
We left as soon as the food FINALLY got brought out to us. I brought husband here for Father's day after making reservations for outdoor seating, when we got there it was drizzling a little and I had my 6-month old with me so I requested to be sat inside instead but the hostess said they didn't have any open table inside, I look around and see about 8 unoccupied tables. So I said OK, seeing how maybe they had been reserved, we would just sit under the umbrella, hoping the rain won't pick up.
So we got sat outside at and it took about 10 minutes to even get water brought to us, not to mention after we'd ordered my coffee never came, only the food. We tried to request for condiments and stuff but the service was so horrible my husband just walked inside, paid for our meal and we got to go boxes. We didn't get to eat here.
I understand it was a busy weekend, but seeing how the restaurant wasn't packed yet, and by the way the 8 tables were still unoccupied at this time, they should've accommodated our indoor request and at the very least provide exceptional service.
I can't rate the food because I didn't get the chance to taste it...
I had given my visit here a 1 BUT seeing how the managerial staff is obviously keen on exceptional customer service and customer satisfaction, I changed it to a 5. They addressed and did not just disregard my concerns. This showed me that they did care about the service provided. Warmed my heart that they went above and beyond and decided to reimburse the money we'd spent here while inviting us for another visit, I'd have settled for the acknowledgement on their part which they also did. Thank you!
Dan Nelson
Cafe Benedicte is that wonderful match of excellent food, management involvement, and affordable pricing in a neighborhood restaurant.
Frederico Pereira
I loved the food. The best Paella in town.
Monica Carrillo
Super nice waiters. Great food. Nice "view" ;) haha
Beth Guide
Food is always fantastic. Get the Brie or calamari for an appetizer
Marcus-Alan Gilbert
This is an excellent restaurant. The caramel and Hazelnut Lattes were excellent and the food (Chorizo Tacos, bagel cream cheese, and Hawaiian French Toast ). The service was top notch and we loved hearing from the owner. This will definitely be on our list the next time we visit Houston.
Stevie MuRee
My new favorite in this neighborhood. Geeat food, great service, good wine selection, live music and knowledgeable staff. I will be a regular here.
Warren Murdoch
Cafe Benedicte is a long time favorite. My family and I don't even use a menu anymore. There aren't any bad choices and the staff is always willing to accommodate special requests. Run, don't walk to Cafe Benedicte.
Aileen Rivera
Loved the experience of dining at this restaurant. The staff was extremely nice and assisting. Started off with fried calamari as an appetizer, the marinara sauce that came with it was really good. For the main entrees we had the pasta primavera (with chicken added) and the grilled chicken brioche which all tasted awesome. I like that their menu is very diverse with vegetarian and vegan options. Overall, I enjoyed this restaurant and will be visiting again to try something new whenever I have the chance.
William Scherzinger
Food, service, and ambiance are excellent.
Guillermo Chutrau
Excellent Mother's Day brunch. Everything was perfect: reservation, cleanliness, quality of food, size of servings, reasonable price. Staff extremely attentive and professional. Tables and chairs were disinfected after guests left. Definitely going back. Food was delicious.
Kim Andrew
Tasty food, excellent customer service, and good outdoor seating. The only downside is there are no outdoor fans for cooling, and the umbrellas are large enough to shield you from the sun.
Facundo Musante
Fantastic food! Very assorted menu with lots of dishes that go beyond what you normally find in restaurants in the area.
Dominique Salet
Nice place, rebuilt after the flood but room was surprisingly noisy with relatively few tables in it. Maybe due to the tunnel construction of the ceiling.
Our burgers were very good but there are plenty more interesting items to explore on the menu. For another time.
Jenny Le
Went to brunch with a girlfriend and got the chicken fried steak. The food was generously portioned and wait staff were great!
Matt Bailey
Loved this place. A hidden gem in the area. Unexpected beautiful ambiance. LOVED the live piano player. Service was friendly and attentive. The food was excellent, everything tasted fresh and made in-house. Prices are very fair for the quality of food and the menu has a wide range of options, including many vegetarian options, which the ladies at our table greatly appreciated!! We will be back! Thanks!!!
Fabrice Levassor
Place and people was nice was great but food was not so good. Steak was good but mashed potato not so. Some colleagues took the salmon croquettes and did not finish their plate
Narmina Amirbekova
I was hoping to get variety of Eggs Benedict but i guess i was confused with the name. The food was ok. You can be very spoiled in Houston food scene so i am a foodie and i like good food a great presentation. I loved the live performance though. Nice Italian vocal.
Jerry Payne Jr
This place was an absolute joy for me. I went in for lamb chops, (was amazing) came out with new friends. Waiters are super attentive. Felt a little underdressed for the place but became comfortable after so many nice folks addressed me. Food was amazing as stated earlier. Lamb chops, grilled asparagus, smoked gouda mac and fresh butter bread,,,,,, good good. Shout out to Mr Jerry for the excellent service and the others I can't recall your names. Piano player came in around 6:30 and tied the whole experience together. Good job folks and thanks for welcoming an old cowboy from Nac. I will be back.
Alan Steinberg
This is a cute Cafe with really good service. I was here for reception, and they kept my drink filled and constantly cleaned off the bar where I was hovering. I got to try a few other foods which were pretty good. The desserts however were the star of the show.
Tamara Perryman
Beautiful restaurant and spectacular service, great menu and the food was AMAZING! I had the French toast and it hit all the right spots, definitely will be going back for more.
Renee Sullins
We were a large party and some of us arrived quite early. Even though our table wasn’t ready, understandably, they made us feel comfortable and welcome and wanted to make sure the table configuration met our needs. They changed it for us without any hesitation. The wait staff was attentive and professional. The food was very good. Another waiter came and offered to take pictures of our group. We all loved this place and it may be our go-to for our Meetings. The valet was great too.
Robert Wasmund
Nice selection of food on the regular menu as well as the Restaurant Weeks menu. Perfectly prepared, presented and served.
Adrienne White
This was our first visit and it was wonderful. We had the steak Diane and it was excellent! The staff was very friendly and attentive. We had a wonderful time!
C. Brady
Let's use a system to review this, shall we? EATS
Edibles: The food isn't bad, but it's really hard to describe the menu. It's got a little bit of everything--Mediterranean, Persian, French, American, and more. Weirdly, very few ingredients overlap from dish to dish. Also the dishes are huge.
Atmosphere: The place is both fancy and sparse at the same time. The restroom is VERY nice, but the parking lot is a bit too small. Tables are well spaced, which is good as a lot of the patrons during lunch are clearly oil and gas folks.
Time: From the time we ordered until we got our food, it was roughly 15-20 minutes. Totally good for most days, but not great for a quick lunch.
Service: This was a mixed bag. They were prompt. They weren't what I'd call friendly, though. More cordial. Not sure what to make of it.
Overall, I think Cafe Benedicte is good for a business lunch or drinks (there's a very large wine menu), but the dishes are too large and the service is just not quick enough for a working lunch or a quick bite between meetings.
Ted Ferretti
First visit (brunch) and will definitely return to sample other side of the menu. I enjoyed the eggs Benedict with grits, a bit too bready, Chef recommendation...add 1 additional slice of Canadian bacon. Eggs and grits cooked perfectly. Hollandaise sauce excellent. My counterpart enjoyed the the Caprese omelette, cooked perfectly and the taste was phenomenal, served with very fresh fruit. Cappuccinos were excellent, needed no additional products. Overall, 5 stars. Make reservations.
Amy Brown
As a regular would like to share my 5 stars! Great environment, friendly service, and great menu. Join for Wednesdays Tapas Night, there is a bar menu that changes up every Wednesday. And lets not leave out the Piano Wednesday and Saturdays! Cafe Benedicte's is my cheers in life!
Thea Goldin Smith
Lovely atmosphere and beautiful live piano music
Y Song
Lamb chops and lobster bisque are my favorite
Thomas Beavers
Great brunch place. They also do a fantastic dinner. The ambience is wonderfully romantic, with elements of Italy and old Europe. The service is beyond reproach, and the owner takesgreat pride in his store, as he should. Not cheap, but pretty average prices for an upscale restaurant. We've been here many times, and look forward to many more visits now that they have re-opened.
R M
Food and dessert was gooooood😋 vibe and place was very gooood . Chef came at the tables which it means he cares.😊👍
The waitress service was 😧😕😞 Kept forgetting to bring whatever I asked for. I got my appetizer plate and silverwear myself from a table next to me! …
Giang Lang
This place never fails to deliver. Always the best service and professional appearance/service. The food is always fantastic as expected and the price is reasonable.
Kristi McAfee
Fantastic food. My husband went for breakfast which was very well done. However, I believe the pasta was the real winner this round. The sauce was decadent yet lite and did not overwhelm the delicate shrimp. Absolutely loved it and can't wait to return. There are many very appealing seafood dishes I would love to try next! Of course I do not want to forget the staff. Everyone was polite and they really make it personal by learning your name.
Troy McGee
Absolutely a must!!! My wait staff Kevin, Sabrina and Madie are EXCELLENT! Not overly asking but with a watchful eye. Food is Phenomenal! I will be returning here and recommend this eat for anyone.
Mina
I came here with my extended family around Thanksgving. More specifically my cousin, his wife, and her parents. They live nearby and loved Cafe Benedicte and invited us to join them for Sunday brunch. We were there early and there weren't many other people in the parking lot. Which was very surprising to me once I walked inside! There was a man playing live music with a guitar and he was singing in the main area when you walk in. To the right is the bar. Walk straight and it's the dining room. It is quite a small area, but it seems intimate and lovely as a brunch spot for a couple or some close friends. We had a large room in the back of the restaurant. It was set up very nicely. On the back wall, there was all these beautiful wines and they were dated and categorized by type. What a nice selection of wines! I enjoyed my mimosa. They had grapefruit juice which is delicious with champagne. The servers were very polite to the children in our party. And of course, they were polite to us well! I enjoyed the bread and jam assortment served before the meal. Again the server was very knowledgeable with the special, and she had full control over our table, even as a large party! I was very impressed. And I was impressed with the back waiters too. I never wanted for anything. I had the chorizo tacos. They were not your traditional corn or flour open faced tacos. More like a burrito. But delicious nonetheless. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their meal as well. And of course the service was discussed positively too!
Kim Mercier
I love this restaurant and am so pleased they were able to reopen after Harvey. Love the new lamb tacos too!
Paul Follis
Quality of food, service, and atmosphere is exceptional. Selection of menu items are incredible and reasonably priced. One of our very favorite places in the West Houston area.
Al Geffon
We love this place for dinner ... have never been here for brunch, but we're not much on those meals. The menu is varied, with a Mediterranean accent, food is always fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented. The staff is warm, friendly,very efficient, and the owners are always on the floor, making certain that all is to the customers' satisfaction. Prices are very reasonable.
There are special dinners during the week, and you'll always get a heads-up e-mail to whet your appetite. You've got to give the place a try ... guaranteed it will make your short list of places to dine.
Michele (Scism) Mere
Everything was fantastic. We had Calamari, Lobster Bisque, Chicken Picatta and the chocolate cake. YUM!
Sara J 23
The hummus and lobster bisque were really good! The basmati rice was ok. Didn't have much flavor. It was a nice ambient and service was great.
Nate Vance
Cafe Benedicte was a great surprise! Easy to get to, easy to park at, and delicious food!
We were able to walk in on Wednesday night at 6:30 without a reservation (though I would recommend making one all the same) and enjoy some great special tapas, wine, dinner, and dessert. Service was very attentive and friendly.
Parking is available right out front, with no shortage of spots.
J. L. Yeager
The food is amazing complimented by an incredible team of staff. Even the owner helps in every facet from greeting guest to serving and cooking the delicious food. My favorite cousin introduced me to this beautiful gem. Elegant enough to have dinner before going to an opera yet causal enough to grab a bite before home from work. I enjoyed my very first ever crepe brulee and if you get the chance it is a beautiful vanilla crepe filled with lightly sweeted brulee and a side of home made whipped cream decoration with toasted almond slices and a mint leave to cleanse your palet afterwards. I can not wait to go back. The chicken was so moist and tender perfectly cooked and the mushrooms and capers in a light white wine butter sauce atop perfectly cooked pasta....just yummy. I can't wait to go back for the pork chops I have heard so much about. And I can't even begin to describe the fully aromatic paella with perfection of balances of saffron shell fish and chorizo and chicken that my cousin shared a small bit because it is just to good to shared. Lol
Please if in the Energy corridor of Houston stop in you will not be disappointed.
Gavin
Great variety of food in a convenient location. Our group of twelve was given a private room with an elegant wine shelf. The staff were attentive and brought the food as it was ready like we asked. Overall a relaxing atmosphere.
Cheryl Donovan
The atmosphere was nice. The staff was very attentive and were willing to make suggestions. Chicken Marsala a little under seasoned but good nonetheless. The baklava was on point. Not too sweet.
Leo De Leon
Varied brunch menu. Attentive servers. Food was out in a timely manner. The restaurant is clean and very nicely decorated.
A A.
The type of mom and pop local restaurant that makes you feel welcomed. Very friendly staff, nice variety of good food. You can sample cousins from all around the Mediterranean.
You could tell how customers really love this place, 2hen you walk in. It's usually packed by business type people during the lunch and then local usual patrons in the evening and they all seem to know the super friendly owner and staff very well.
Not exactly a quick bite type place for lunch, but definitely a nice place to eat if you work in the O&G companies around and have maybe 30 to 45 minutes, but then not sure a good quality food could be prepared and served any faster.
Parking is bit of hassle during the day so plan to be there half an hour before or after lunch time.
Hunter Soffos
I lived in europe for several years, specifically along the Mediterranean coasts of Italy, Greece, and Spain. This is the one restaurant where, without fail, they deliver masterful Mediterranean cuisine. I can't get enough. Come here and try something familiar, something new, or anything in between and you will not be disappointed!
Chandran Kumar
First Restaurant meal I’ve had in a while. Ít was surprisingly good. The delivery and handling was fantastic. I got my order within 3 minutes of the set time. I was concerned that the redfish would not survive take out, but it’s was delicious. Will definitely return.
Julio Rios
I have been eating here for more than 10 years. They have been flooded by Harvey but have made a comeback. The menu is what I call a fusión of Mediterainean dishes, very good. Great wine selection. The service is excellent. The owner is hospitable and stops by to show his appreciation. I can't wait to go back.
Lee Coleman
We loved them because they treated us like family. We only spotted the restaurant on the way to our future daughter in laws place. I walked in with Julie and I wish I had a dinner jacket on. It didn’t matter. We were seated with a view of the Amalfi coast. The night became greater. I have dined in north and central America, Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands and always remember the charming places. The cuisine has to be 90% of the experience. The other 90% has to be the genuine way we are served with love. Cafe Benedicte, thank you for exceeding the math. We’ll remember.
Jennie Rodriguez
The food is wonderful! This is a prime spot for brunch. They have some great vegetarian options. There's a large wine selection and a coffee and espresso bar. The service excellent; the owner is such a pleasant guy! It's a great location, too, right across the street from BP in the middle of the energy corridor.
Fa Dwan
Excellent! Strongly recommended.
Kristin Citan
I have loved this place for years. It has been through a lot with its Houston community. The food remains first rate, the service is always friendly & professional and the atmosphere continues to be upscale but homey.
Angelia Rojas
Enjoyed the ambience and food. I prefer a softer, quieter, environment at times and Cafe Benedict was perfect. Our brunch/lunch was delicious and the mimosas on point.
Hova Black
Absolutely fantastic service, very warm and friendly. Oh yeah, the food, is wonderful, delicious and prepared to perfection. Great atmosphere. Look don't waste your time reading this you should be seated and ordering already. Bon Appétit.
Kristina Pilko
Cage Benedicte is absolutely fantastic! The food is always so good. Try the Lentil Soup & the Pallea... You wont be disappointed! The service is always outstanding. It's a small cozy restaurant where you're made to feel like part of a family rather than just another Customer. Owner, Vahid greet everyone as if hes known them forever (which in some cases he has!) And makes a point to visit with everyone. The relaunch of the restaurant was much anticipated after Hurricane Harvey's flooding decimated the area. I'm ecstatic to see them back up & operating h am looking forward to many more visits for delicious food & great conversation!
Shahrouz Kaedi
Fantastic food, ambient and service
It’s a little bit European style. You might wait a little more than usual for the food but it’s well worth it.
The service is outstanding and friendly. Sunday brunches are fantastic too.
Highly recommended.
Robert Gruver
Delicious food, top notch wine, and live ambient music from a talented guitarist. Will be back!
Jessica Polansky-Robinson
This place gives an excellent, high quality dining experience. The waiter and servers are warm and attentive, which makes it feel very classy. There was a live singer and pianist when we came Thursday night, that gave a fun vibe without being too loud. There is a bar area with a high ceiling, and a more cozy dining area where we sat.
My SO ordered tapas of chicken and sausage (delicious balsamic sauce), piri chicken (very spicy but flavorful), and garlic shrimp (fresh and tasty). I had lobster bisque, which was creamy and full of actual lobster meat, and seafood paella which was beautifully prepared. They have a dessert/brandy menu that we declined. Overall, a great little place for a date night or small (8 or fewer) party.
Jaimee K
Staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. The food and wine are fantastic. This place is a beautiful Italian gem. Highly recommend for weekend brunch and for a night cap with live music during the week.
Pablo Duran
Very nice and quiet place. The lobster bisque was delicious. Kevin is a really nice and friendly guy. My wife and I had fun. I would recommend this restaurant
Jason Files
Excellent food at reasonable prices.
Frans Vandervlugt
We had dinner with 9 persons and i turned out we all had a different main course from couscous, mousaka to paela, steak, fish. Everything was delicious. Nice atmosphere and great service.
Amanda Goldberg
Went here on a recommendation and was very pleased. The food is delicious, atmosphere is pleasant and the customer service is exceptional! I'm also allergic to gluten, and was impressed with their gluten free menu, even though the waiter wasnt aware they had one when i first asked. Need to go!
i P
went for brunch ,nice and clean staff professional but...unattentive .., ordered no bacon egg benedict, got with bacon.. ..they simply pulled out bacon n reserved same..
Ordered 1 black coffee ,1 mimosa, they came back with 2 mimosa...
S Wolff
Great place for large or small crowds. They accept separate tickets if you ask ahead of time. The food is very tasty. I tried the sliders and they were very good. Service is excellent. We will be back.
Bill Courville
Great food and good service
Jeff Jamison
We never have a bad experience here. Staff is excellent owners always present, food absolutely lovely. Highly recommended.
Alyssa Brown
Great atmosphere and food! We went for brunch and were very surprised. The staff was so friendly and professional. Will definitely be back!
Warren Murdoch
I have hosted 2 family+friends events in the past year at Cafe Benedict. I used one of the private rooms for the event. Both events were executed flawlessly by the staff. The food was excellent and the management catered to one of the guest's special dietary needs. I plan on having my next event catered by Cafe Benedict.
Rahul Rao
We have had a family brunch here one weekend. Service was really good and they did not mind our 2 year old wandering about their patio. Breakfast dishes were well prepared and their wine selection is good.
Liliya Kaganovsky
Nice place, great atmosphere.
I ordered the pasta Primavera which was very delicious.
The place was a bit less crowded than expected on a weekend but overall the food and the service were great
Gabie Woodard
I love this place. It is disguised in a strip shopping center, but once you walk in the door, you will feel the Amalfi Coast ambiance. They have a friendly staff that is very attentive. I also enjoy the guitarist who plays occasionally. Try the peri peri chicken if you enjoy a very spicy hot dish. The menu is a mix of Mediterranean and American which is very diverse. The Greek salad is served perfectly with fresh dressing and feta. Be sure to make reservations as sometimes it gets crowded. Don't let this simple fix ruin your night.
Pratyush Prakash
It was the best food I have ever tasted. The service was exquisite, and the price was bargain value. Absolutely loved it.
Kevin Bailey
Had dinner on a Monday night here. Excellent food and high quality, professional service. Prices are reasonable for what you get - I am used to receiving that kind of service only from much more expensive restaurants. The grilled salmon was excellent, especially considering this is Houston, where salmon tends to not be very fresh.
Phil Harang
Great food, good service, nice ambiance. We eat there often. Good for a romantic night out or a business dinner for four. The view outside used to be nice but construction next door has sort of ruined that. I really hope that they find a way to get that back after the building mess is gone.
Hollie Berry Elizondo (Hollie Berry)
The food here is always fresh & inspired! The couscous salad is the best I've ever had. They frequently offer special brunches and wine tastings which are especially fun. This is one of the most romantic restaurants in the Energy Corridor.
H-town Doer
Outstanding food and service! We held a party in their private room, and everything was perfect. Extremely accommodating and helpful staff, and every bite was delicious.
Irina Dudina
What a beautiful way to start Saturday with surprisingly outstanding brunch at Cafe Benedict's. For my husband and I eating is an experience that is built of multiple things that must happen to make it perfect. Jody and Jolene were awesome, delicate and happy. Their joy reached out table and we thank them for that. Oh, and eggs Benedict's were top tier! And we have tried a lot of them! :)
Brian Rock
This is a quaint spot with many regulars. The servers are knowledgeable in the fare. I tried the mussels and Lamb chops. The mussels were large and cooked perfectly, and the broth they were cooked in was exquisite. The chops were also cooked perfectly to a medium rare on the inside and a good crust on the outside.
Alexander Mallo
Awesome place awesome service, I'll definitely be back next time i pass through
Ada Topacio
Recently reopened, it was our first time there as we had just moved around the area. I had the Moussaka and it was incredibly salty I couldn't finish it. We told the waiter and they did take half off the price from our bill. My bf had chicken masala which was mediocre. They only had a limited menu for their reopening but I don't think we'll be keen to go back and try the rest..
Hunter Serr
The service was excellent but the food came out a little slow. The quality was amazing. Some of the best lamb shank I have had. I recommend that and the Gouda Mac and Cheese.
Oralia Meneses
Our First Time at Cafe Benedicte, We were Pleasantly Surprised! The Food Was Delicious🤤and The drinks were Great!🍹 …
Shelby McDuff
I eat here with family every time I'm in Houston. Fabulous food and wonderful live music. Service is incomparable.
Na Li
Very smart decor, the tinted Mediterranean window displace made you felt like you are in Cannes or Italy.
Service Is excellent, attentive and knowledgeable.
Thé crêpe duet was the highlight of brunch, the two different kind of crepe fulfills my greedy food desire. The hash brown in the middle is gold brown, crispy outside and soft inside.
Fresh toast was different in a good way. Portion is pretty big too.
I know with the name they should be expert for Benedict, but I didn't feel it was anything special. I want my muffin softer on the bottom.
Overall great place to have brunch at and it seems like the dinner menu was something I should I try too.
Marcus Fryer
Wow. The food was wonderful and the staff was very attentive. Live music and a lovely, comfortable atmosphere. Will be returning soon.
Neffles P
Absolutely love this restaurant. The menu is incredible. Especially for the price. You get so much for your dollar. Friendly, professional, and welcoming. My new staple.
Syria Cribbs
The food was fantastic, the drinks were great and the service was awesome! Our server, Vanessa, was beyond nice and sweet. We will definitely be back.
Courtney Gordon
Wonderful food and ambiance. The service was amazing too!
Terry D
I have always had good experiences here. I wanted to mention it has now reopened after the Flood and will be going there this weekend to support them. It is good to have Benedicte back. A favorite Sunday brunch spot when we have out of town guests.
Karri O'Donnell
The food and drinks are always delicious and the service is always awesome! Great place for lunch, dinner or brunch. Outdoor patio is dog friendly
Lori Doucet-Alexander
Great menu! Service pace is a little slow (ask for your order, refill drinks, bring the check) and it's a little but of a slower pace and a little bit of off service. Overall nice local place!
Gustavo García
Place is nice, good service, but the food quality was not at its best an took forever to arrive to our table. I'll not try it again not because is awful just because I think I can get better food and service for same price somewhere else.
Peter Tanev
Restaurant with great, cozy atmosphete that used to serve very good to excellent food. Unfortunatelly, it has gone down in quality of food - quite heavy and sauses put on food are very greasy/ not tasty. Poor choice of red wines.
Duke Ensell
Went for brunch. Our third visit. Has always been a great experience. Tha manager checked on us. Very friendly and professional. Can't wait to get in again.
Joy Slaback
Did a great job getting boxed lunches for volenteers for water distribution to families without. The food was delicious and everyone appreciated it. A comunity supporting business!
Blaine Drake
The food was fine. Not spectacular, but fine.
I think the waitstaff and management are bored. Because they kept coming to check on us, every two minutes.
Word to the management? "Relax, guys."
Kertina P
The food was good and the service even better.
Jose Reyes
This place is perfect for vegetarians and vegans will like. you need to come check it out. Try the selection of new white wines from Chile.
Bret Kimmel
Really enjoyed Cafe Benedicte. Great ambiance. Great service. Great food. Mussles were very good. Hamburger was excellent. Redfish Pontchartrain was a great take on the dish. Will definitely go back.
Sara Chaarawi
Nice and quiet atmosphere. Good options. Tasty food.. well spiced and seasoned.. although meat was overcooked.
Would like to have more vegetarian options for my friends!
L Lasiewski
I've only been here for brunch, but it's Delicious! Salmon tempura Benedict and surf and turf Benedict! Oh My! Beautiful interior and loved having the acoustic guitar playing while we ate.
Jacklynn Gullett
As a part of HRW it gave me the opportunity to test this place out. I was pleasantly surprised. The food portions were larger than I would think they should be off the HRW menu, but I'm not complaining. The Bang Bang Shrimp was amazing!
N Hart
Absolutely amazing food and service.
Delish Nutritionist
Fantastic cuisine with large portions that are perfect for sharing. White table cloths add to the ambiance here and the waitstaff is on point with great service!
David Brown
Great staff & Good food - try this place, you will not be disappointed.
Audra Tekell
For a restaurant in a small strip mall it was very nice and cozy. Good drink choices, wine choices are alright. We had the margherita pizza and it was a great appetizer.

Matthew Couch
Stopped in for brunch on the weekend. Got there a few minutes before they opened and saw people knocking on the door to get in. Thought that was odd but once I tried the food I understood the urgency. Great food and service!
B Sue (therealmccoy)
I choose Café Benedict to be my venue for my 90th birthday party. The venue could not of been more beautiful and the staff made sure everyone was taken care of. This being a very important birthday for me they really exceeded my expectations!
Kevin Best
It was great. The atmosphere is nice, mature people and the food was great. One of the bartenders was a bit slow but was pleasant

William Texas
I was with a group but the special menu offered good choices. I enjoyed my steak with mashed potatoes and a good Cabernet Sauvignon. Highly recommended!
Shane B
Excellent food! Service was prompt and courteous. Worthy of a nice tip. 1 star deduction for pricing. Portions are generous but, pricing,in my humble opinion, could be more modest.
Van N
Still loving this place. Excellent food, wine & service - what else can you ask for in a restaurant! But they also have a great patio for weekend brunches.
Joey K.
This is a popular neighborhood restaurant in the area. The service and hospitality is commended and the food is delicious. I'm glad they are able to continue to provide service after the setback from Harvey.
Timothy Clouse
Wine list is the same size as the menu. A good sign, because it means they do a relatively small number of dishes, and do them superbly.
Erik G
Pleasant, quiet, upscale lunch spot in the energy corridor, seafood lasagna (off menu) was prepared perfectly. Attentive staff and reasonable prices.
Tom Walsh
Our favorite restaurant in the Energy Corridor. Excellent food but even better service. But even more than that a very comfortable neighbor bistro with a continental and mediterranean menu.
Oscar Sanchez
10 out of 10. Would frequent this place if i lived in town. Service was excellent and food was extremely great!

One of the best kept secrets in town is their brunch. The best Eggs Benedict this side of the Seine. Sit outside, relax and have a mimosa (or two or three) and just slow life down.
Art & Christine Jones
Setting is comfortable, service is great and the food was also great. Their Mediterranean dishes are really very nice.
Manuel G. Zegarra
An outstanding restaurant with superb and friendly service (ask for Gino) that offers a variety of extremely satisfying and delicious food choices, from starters through to desserts. Truly memorable!
