We had an outstanding dinner at Benedict's last night. Food was delicious, beautifully cooked and balanced. but the real gem of the evening was the staff. I will single out the lady Sommelier who knew her stuff, did not try and sell you an expensive bottle, but instead explained each wine clearly, and sorted out how it matched with each course. She was enthusiastic, articulate and a great addition to the staff. Bravo.
Booked Al-fresco dining, and would recommend it! - we were even given blankets as the autumn nights were creeping in.
Dinner for two and they have a simple menu for the street-side option, so we have one each and shared (all except the vegetarian option).
Service was amazing.
Dishes were not entirely mind blowing in gustatory appeal, but certainly in experience, and the Al-fresco menu was affordable. All-in-all we thought it was excellent value.
Great wine also - from the recommendation.
A gastronomic experience, within which we were well looked after. The whole thing was made affordable street-side.

Amazing experience. The food was outstanding and the service even better. They accommodated a last minute birthday request which really completed the night. A must if you are in Norwich, we will be back.
Fantastic food and the wines to match were expertly chosen and described. The set lunch menu was a real experience and is highly recommended.
The service was spot on and the wonderful young woman who was the wine steward took care of me perfectly and with kindness when I needed to use a disabled toilet. She was a brilliant sommelier as well - those choices were inspired.
Overall, this is the way to spend a lunchtime and come away feeling that you've experienced something special. The attention to every detail was astounding.

Absolutely delicious food. We all had a lunch set menu which was divine. It was my mum‘s birthday and they prepared a beautiful little card and dessert for her. The service was very friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is relaxed and chatty rather than stiff which makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend.
A couple in our hotel described Benedicts as "expensive". I'd argue it isn't, for what it has to offer. First, 61GBP for a 6 course set menu is pretty standard. They are also very accommodating. We aren't big drinkers, so we asked to split accompanying wines in two, to try them out, but not to drink too much. And we did the same with cheeses. We wanted to try everything, but to be frank, their main dish was quite big, compared to other restaurants with set menus, where sometimes you get a single piece of meat.
All in all, very friendly service, not a single dish I would consider to be weak, and a very reasonable price for that.

Been very sceptical about Benedicts , for a decade, for no valid reason. Had a coronation lunch, to avoid the faf.
We had the set menu, with the coronation cocktail, and the wine flight.
It was faultless, not a phrase I've ever used before. The food was different and interesting. The wine was great, and generously poured. The service was friendly and well informed.
A very pleasant meal, and will probably go back for an evening meal.

I really can't say enough good things about this restaurant - everything is thought through and presented meticulously but with such friendliness and ease of service. The menu is outstanding, and whilst presented as a tasting menu was flexible to cater to some group members. Wine list is also excellent. The atmosphere is warm and laid back, the staff on point. I really look forward to coming back soon.
