Our experience at Ben Wei was top rate. Our booking was for 6 adults, 3 children. From the personal contact prior to the booking, the attention to detail in the table setting, our waiter's friendly, eager to serve attitude and of course the variety of delicious foods to choose from, we were super impressed!
Our only regret was that the restaurant was not jam packed with other patrons enjoying what Ben Wei has to offer. Will definitely be back for more!

Read full reviewThanks to restaurant week, I got the chance to try out Ben Wei in Wembley Square. It was a quiet night in the restaurant but that didn't distract from the food. We had three courses. Starting with the beef potstickers, which came to the table piping hot and delicious! Second course was sushi for my friend and as i don't eat sushi the restaurant was happy to let me try the buffalo wings. The wings were tasty and messy! Loved it. Course three, i had the General Tso's crispy pork. It was hot spicy and the pork was crispy and the sauce was more'ish! My friends chicken and cashew nut dish was a bit pale in comparison to my dish. I was the winner...
Amazing first time experience at Ben Wei for dinner last night.
Highly recommend this restaurant for great ambiance, brilliant service and outstanding Asian cuisine.
Everything we had on Restaurant Week set menu was delicious and waitron assisted in some minor adjustments to suit allergies/gluten free with ease.

The crispy beef was a highlight as was the sushi and potstickers. Will most certainly be back to try the sticky ribs and other menu items very soon.
Thank you for a great food journey to new places Ben Wei team!
