10/10We sat in the basement as all other tables were full but found it very charming and nice and cool! The food was incredible and service was excellent despite it being so busy. Everything was served fresh and piping hot and drinks were served quickly. We wish we had discovered Benso earlier in our trip so we could have returned but alas, found it on our final night.

6/10This is a tourist restaurant which however has good Italian food, according to the fettuccine alla bolognese and the gnocchi ai 4 formaggi that we - Italian guests - experienced, together with strawberry and ice cream at the end of the dinner.

7.5/10We came to dinner to celebrate with a large group. The restaurant and the food was good but the service was ok. Not supper attentive and in the summer time the downstairs was very very hot. The food was fresh.

10/10First night in Rome and thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant for a family meal. Excellent quality food and service and the ambience in the downstairs dining area was perfect.

4.5/10Benso was recommended by our airbnb host! So I made dinner reservations for my birthday (2 June) with the excitement and possibility of having one of our best meals in Rome. Unfortunately, it was not as good as we hoped. 😕 The Fiumi di pecorino pioggia di formaggio, came out extremely dry, and our other spaghetti and meatballs dish had no flavor! But the ravioli, the rosso vino was good and the pistachio tiramisu was delicious. Last, we did feel a little, rushed like they were trying to turn the tables over quickly, although this was a Sunday night.

3/10We booked 2 months prior to booking and still placed in basement and not in main restaurant. Placed near wine bottles with children couldn’t relax. Carbonara sauce so thick and gloopy
