Benjamin's Kitchen

"Random location but excellent food and service. All the dishes were top notch . The laksa was my favourite. Will be back. Thanks"

"Delicious and interesting food in a bit of a random location. If these guys were closer to the city they would be booked out every night. The laksa was especially delicious. Bit expensive, but i think worth it and fair in these times. Friendly and professional service and nice vibe for a casual date night, in the cute and clean dining area."

"It was OK. Beef brisket rogan josh was a bit bland. The other dishes we had were OK."

"This is our 8th time at Benjamin’s and it truly have never disappointed with its consistent deliciousness! As we were finishing up with some tea I heard a young boy, perhaps ten years old, dining with his parents on the other side of the restaurant exclaim ‘I’ve never tasted anything better in my life’. I couldn’t have put it better myself Latest Back to Benjamin’s for my brother in laws belated birthday dinner post being freed from the latest lockdown. Being our fifth visit we know and love the menu but tonight the Mongolian beef was outstandingly good. I think it’s actually my new favourite rendition of this traditional Chinese dish due to its super flavoursome sauce. Thoroughly recommend Recent We dined at Benjamin’s for my sisters birthday recently and it remains as delicious as ever. We found the menu entirely unchanged and ended up up ordering much of the same from our previous visit and the consistency shone though. Impossible to have a bad meal here! Further update We hastily brought my brother in laws birthday dinner booking forward three weeks when the government announced new lockdown restrictions and had one last supper. We revisited all of our favourite dishes and one new one the birthday boy wanted to order, beef rendang. This was a well executed rendition but it is of course traditionally a dry curry and BK excel in their flavour packed sauces so they will always be my preference. Check them out in lockdown for their daily takeaway packs Update We headed to BK for my mums birthday last night having tried it almost a year ago and remembering it fondly. We kicked off with the chicken satay skewers and prawn dim sum. A great way to start the meal and special mention to the phenomenal satay sauce. We knew at that moment roti would be a must order for more of that yummy sauce! Props to the interior designer as they’ve absolutely nailed a tranquil ambiance and the function room with its soft shades would be perfect for a baby shower event. The main space has a real Hampton’s feel to it with the pretty lighting resembling a fluffy cloud against a soft painted sky. But back to the food. The coconut black tiger prawns were a real showstopper. Served in a coconut these giant prawns were absolutely delicious and the flavours lingered on the palette long after after they’d been gobbled up. We’ll definitely be back Original review I was invited to try Benjamin’s Kitchen and what a lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon. The dishes were mostly Thai and Chinese influenced and involved all the classics. Everything sounded so good we found the mains hard to chose as there’s quite a lot of variety. We went for the teriyaki chicken, chicken pad thai and chilli honey black pepper beef. The meat in all the dishes was high quality and not the stringy kind you often find in Chinese restaurants. In fact nothing about this place resembled a typical Chinese restaurant. The interiors were just gorgeous. A bright, crisp and clean space downstairs and more of the same beauty upstairs with function rooms available. Light wood floors set off the bright white walls and pastel painted feature walls by artist Chloe Planinsek. The five spice calamari was coated in the lightest of crispy batters and absolutely sensational. The seafood fresh as can be. Good quality food at reasonable prices with a large variety of veggie and gf options what more could you ask for? How about dessert! The dessert offering is small but it’s enough to satisfy the sweet palette and they are actually looking to expand their dessert range going forward. We had a couple of slices supplied by the very tasty Butter Mafia. The passion fruit one was exceptionally delicious. The coconut panacotta was also fantastic. Texturally perfect and plenty of flavour. Literally a faultless meal"

"This place is beautiful on the inside, we sat on the second story and it just felt calm and peaceful. It’s definitely quite expensive but the food was good but not amazing for what I was hoping. The entrees were definitely the best out of everything. The mains really lacked flavour but we’re still enjoyable enough. My biggest regret was ordering the panna cotta, one bite and I had to stop and I LOVE dessert. The jam which must be homemade which you would think would have been good but it was full of all these spices so it was chunky and we literally pulled a full clove out of our mouths. It needed to be sieved but when we questioned the waitress she said she should have warned us like it was intentional for it to be like that. We didn’t get a receipt shown to us at the end but we don’t think it got removed on the bill which ideally would have been the professional thing to do but not a huge deal they did offer us the mousse instead but we were full at this point anyway. The finish on a positive, the staff were super friendly and that’s always a plus!"
