The best service in town, food was great and quick, Nice mix on the menue.
Food and service superb. Most recommendable.
All round fabulous experience, and will definitely visit Ben Wei again!
My wife made the booking for her son and me as she thought that it was just a sushi restaurant.
But what a lovely surprise, yes, there was sushi but also so much else. We enjoyed dim-sum, sushi and Korean Sticky Pork Ribs, all tasty and well presented.
Good food and very good value......we will be back.
We visited on a very quiet afternoon but felt welcome and well looked after. The service was prompt and warm. The food was fresh and tasty but the noodles were a bit bland. The pot-stickers were delicious!
