The Original Benito One opened it's doors in 1968. Because of the reputation of Chef Benito it became an instant hit in Little Italy. It started out with only 5 tables in a tiny store front. It hasen't changed much over the years. The new owners are 2 brothers (Nick and James Bari) who have been in the restaurant business for over 40 years. Born and raised on Mulberry Street and now the proud owners of Benito. Out of respect of Chef Benito they kept the name and pretty much the same menu. The chef that is there has been working in Benito for over 29 years. Nick and James have kept the same cozy and family oriented look of the restaurant. All the pictures on the walls are of thier family, parents, grand parents and great grand parents. They will maintain the look and taste of the original Benito as long as they are there. Nick and James invite you to come and take a look and hopefully become a member of the Benito family.

Greeted very warmly by the staff. The waiter was very amiable. The food came out quickly and tasted amazing. Had the pleasure of having the owner help us out with dessert and provide us with the best cannoli I have every tried. It is a small restaurant with an authentic Italian feel. Make sure to make a reservation, especially for dinner.

Eggplant (aka aubergine for me) parmigiana was delicious! Gigantic portions so we got one to share and a mozzarella salad to share as starter. So good! Good prices too. I was skeptics of places in Little Italy but turned out to be great!

My group of five was wandering and shopping around Little Italy. One of the staff came out and invited us in. From there everyone treated us like family, the food was AMAZING (I had the piccata) , and the vibe was nice and quiet. When we come back to NY our group will go back here!
