7.5/10A good indian restaurant but it has lost its creativity. We ate here when the chef Benares was still in charge / involved in the chain and it had a more extensive and creative menu then today. A shame but still a nice and tasty restaurant. We opted for à la carte because the set tasting menu is very extensive.

10/10Benares was my choice for my birthday dinner and it was the best choice! The experience started as soon as we entered the restaurant, The staff was very welcoming and made my husband and I feel comfortable. I totally recommend you go for the Menu Degustacion if it's the first time you go, you will not regret it! You may choose to eat on the terrace that has a small pool or inside, with a good space between tables that makes you feel comfortable, both ambiances have excellent decoration. I asked for a table outside because I like terraces but since it was the middle of the Summer and it was a very hot day, we were offered the inside option so we took a table inside but besides the terrace so we could also enjoy the outside view Also, the attention from Phoebe was amazing, she explained each of the items on the menu, a bit of history, and the best way to eat each one, She was very attentive to us the whole time, so she also made the experience amazing <3 I'll definitely go again!

9.5/10Everything is nice except the AC was not working properly and it was hot inside and the food is very expensive, especially beers can be at least cheaper, they are not coming from India

8.5/10Esperaba que el ambiente del local fuera bueno, pero es que además se estaba muy cómodo y no te metían prisa por nada, de manera que si quieres disfrutar de una buena comida o cena, en una ambiente agradable y quedar muy bien con tus amigos o pareja creo que es el lugar indicado.

7/10We were rushed through lunch despite the fact that the place was almost empty and got minimal explanations about the (delicious) food we were served

9/10Was excited to try out an Indian place on my visit to Madrid and Benares did not disappoint in ambiance, style and service. ???????? I had the vegetarian lunch Thali and it was OK. Unfortunately, vegetarians menus don’t get much attention, as restaurants mostly focus on the meat eaters in Spain. ????????♀️ Still, it was a quality experience all in all. ⭐️

7/10Comida,preparación,presentación excelente pero servicio muy muy lento.nada que ver con tipo de restaurante que pretende ser. Muchos camareros moviendo por todos los lados pero mucha demora para traer te menu's, tomar nota,se olvida las cosas etc. No se si eso es así siempre o solo este dia pero final servicio eclipsa resto

10/10Food and service were both excellent. Special thanks for server Vijay who was outstanding. Chef Luis met me at the table which I really appreciate and would like to thank & congratulate him for creating an awesome tasting menu with perfect wine pairing.

10/10Everything was exceptional from the food to the service. The moment you walk in you could already tell that the service will be next level. They are extremely attentive without being smothering and made the experience even better than it already was with the food alone. The food was amazing. I got the Thali Ejecutivo and it was a great way to try different savory and sweet dishes from the restaurant. I highly recommend washing down your meal with the mango lassi too!

9/10De la mejor salsa picante que he consumido en Madrid. La comida excelente. Aunque al final no se aplicó nada del plan ejecutivo y asumimos el costo normal e imaginamos que no aplicaba nada. Pero al verlo ahora nosotros consumimos un plato fuerte, dos guarniciónes y un entrante más una margarita y una cerveza. Y no se aplicó nada. La atención fue excelente

6.5/10The food was incredibly disappointing. The curries had no taste, lacking spices, and the naan was not good. The restaurant decor is nice and the cocktails decent otherwise. Not good indian food, was expecting a lot better given the price

10/10Fabulous venue, service, cocktails, and food! It could well be my favourite Indian restaurant in Spain! I can't wait to return with more friends and try the tasting menu.
