Great restaurant!! Recommended.

The best meal we had in Verona. Dishes were uniformly delicious, and often had an unexpected twist. The wine list is extensive and well curated. The service is exceptionally kind and very accommodating of dietary requirements (in my case gluten free - they do gf pasta).

If there was more star to give, I would have. Coming from hospitality background, it’s not everyday that you encounter such class and professionalism in a restaurant, from the moment you walk in, to the moment you walk out. Few points that got me stunned: 1- A fun to read, and accessible to all pockets wine list. 2- presentation of the food classic, simple and straightforward; taste of the food stunning. 3- attention to details in every single aspect of the the restaurant. 4- and most important: an owner that know the weight of his restaurant, and yet makes you fell at home. I live in Sydney, and I can’t wait to visit Benda again the next time we are back. Bravo Vittorio and team, keep up the great work you guys are doing.

Love the decor, music and all the attention to details down to the menu, utensils and even holder used for bill. Implacably clean, no stray flies (worth mentioning because every single restaurants we’ve been to had one or two flies sharing bread with us). Warm hospitable service with pretty good food. The lamb ribs was especially delicious. Flavourful and well executed. Bread was good unlike most other restaurants where it’s almost an afterthought. Pasta was alright but we’re not a good judge because we were not hungry. Texture was nice and firm. Meat could be more tender. Tiramisu had a lovely sauce but could use a more aromatic chocolate with less fat (this was a little oily and waxy when cold, and had an alkalised cocoa powder aroma). Most people will still enjoy this. We’re just more particular about chocolate. Overall a very enjoyable experience and would recommend anyone to visit. The service makes you smile.

All the dishes are really yummy, strong flavored, original. Even the bread served was the best we have ate in italy in the last 2weeks. All the dishes we ate were so good. Even the rose cake with mascapone was finger licking yummy. The cake was toasted to perfection and the mascapone was light and fragrant with butter taste. The mango sauce on the foei gras was just nice, not overly sweet and blended very well with the dish. Service here was top notch.

Dinner at Benda last night was simply extraordinary! 🤩 My husband and I truly appreciate exceptional cuisine, and Benda left us absolutely stunned — from the flawless execution of every dish, to the top-notch service, to the enchanting atmosphere that made the entire evening feel special. What we thought would be “just dinner” unexpectedly became one of the most memorable evenings of our visit to Verona. We began with the beef tartare, which was exquisite, followed by my tuna tataki — delicate, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. My husband ordered the ribs, and they were perfection: the meat melted off the bone at the slightest touch, paired wonderfully with creamy mashed potatoes that completed the dish beautifully. And then came dessert… the incredible “Il Bandamisu.” The name says it all! A completely unique take on tiramisu — rich and robust, with the perfect balance of sweet and bitter flavors, finished with cacao powder and delicate chocolate shavings. Absolutely unforgettable. Add to that a fantastic wine selection and incredibly friendly, attentive staff, and truly… what more could you ask for? Benda is an absolute gem in Verona, and we cannot wait to return.
