Looking to Korea and to China for inspiration, Lee’s progression of courses might start with a brilliant dish like winter melon soup with caviar and gold leaf, and spin off into another realm. Leggi tutto

A unique mix of East and West flavors bring Corey Lee's French technique, California produce, and Korean heritage into focus, with dishes like foie gras xiao long bao. Leggi tutto

Try Lobster xiao long bao with black Vinegar and house-made soy sauce, Barbecued Wolfe Ranch quail with XO sauce and steamed bao black truffle cream & Sonoma Creamery milk pudding with salted caramel

The ultimate tasting menu experience. The food here is beautiful. Highlights for me were the thousand year old egg, oyster with pork belly and kimchi, xo sausage and “shark fin soup”.

Great service, great food, great wine pairing! Also found out Benu tracks which dishes you have tried so they create something new for you to experience every time!

French Laundry alum Corey Lee creates dishes reflecting both his Asian heritage and personal obsessions. A bowl of wild-salmon roe with puffed buckwheat is one of 18 courses on the $180 tasting menu.

At the clean-lined Benu, in SoMa, every detail is carefully considered, from the porcelain tableware to the Eastern-inspired chef’s tasting menu (a 1,000-year-old quail egg; salt-and-pepper squid).
Arthur LiaoGennaio 30, 2016
Flavors are nuanced and may be confusing if you are not familiar with Chinese and Korean cuisine. Execution is perfect, service friendly, wine pairings perfect. Truly brilliant and one of a kind.
EpicuriousAgosto 3, 2014
Lee's exquisitely designed Asian-inflected tableware frames each dish: his famous lobster xiao long bao; a faux-shark-fin soup poured over black truffle custard; his spin on Peking duck. Leggi tutto

At Benu, a big part of the experience is not only the artistry of Lee but also the sheer genius of wine director Yoon Ha. His pairings are masterful Leggi tutto

Lee masterfully blends myriad influences into a cuisine that transcends cultural boundaries, and sommelier Yoon Ha's insane pairing suggestions complete the entire experience. [Eater 38 Member]

Summits of creativity, especially in the signature 10+ starter dishes. Flavours ranging from exceptional to decent. Be prepared for a very large tab not inclusive of wine but with 20% service charge.
Brian StraussMarzo 27
Elegance personified. This is not "punch you in the face" overly stuffed experience. It's a perfectly orchestrated and almost "light" 20 -ish courses of "American" food: Asian inspired, sake & wine.
Fiona SGiugno 13, 2013
The tasting menu: a $180 spiritual experience. Everything was prepared with such creativity, thoughtfulness and consideration; porcelain custom made for the food.

Chef Corey Lee combines Asian-inspired flavors to create dishes like his must-try faux shark’s-fin soup. He loves to work with unusual ingredients, like pine needles from the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Leggi tutto

Salt and pepper squid or chicharron de calamar aka fried squid rinds!!! I know it sounds odd and it is delicious! It is squid ink and pulverized squid made into fried rinds like chips.

3 etoiles michelin. Best chef ! Inspiration corée chine france. Table incontournable à SF
eric bornemannAprile 12, 2018
Vastly creative cuisine, love the faux-shark fin soup and lobster soup dumplings. Wine by the glass list is a little dull.

Get the tasting menu for Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and French influences in harmony. Try monkfish liver + pumpkin tofu. – Green Guide Editor

The tasting menu is divine. Try getting a reservation at 6 pm rather than 8 pm (it is a 16-course menu!). Tasting takes about 4 hours and is more enjoyable when it ends at 10 rather than midnight.
Sherry LiMarzo 17, 2015
$228 for tasting menu. Wine pairing is flexible based on how much you want to drink.

The tasting menu is now $180 and worth every penny. The kimchee oyster pork belly, the salmon roe with buckwheat, and the foie grois xiao long bao are fantastic. www.enrout.com

This is exceptionally great food. The complexity and balanced food is felt in every bite. Nothing falls short of great.
StacyAprile 25, 2015
The service make you in heaven! I like all the staff there! Food are good but somewhat average for a three stars.
Jess CliftonSettembre 18, 2011
The lobster was amazing. As was the beef. Both from the main menu. Portions are small, so plan for two apps, one pasta (to share), two entrees & two desserts.
Bloompy BonvivantMarzo 12, 2014
Heavenly food, set in a minimalist decor and calming ambience, and an impeccable service.

They did the most amazing "pork cooked like ham" that I've ever had. It was like bacon in every bite without the fat.

Try the Beef braised in pear, endive, date and watercress - Item 13 of Benu's tasting menu.The beef was cooked "en sous vide" making it very tender but keeping the velvety intramuscular fat. Lusci

everyone in the SF bay area needs to pay a visit to this restaurant. Receiving rave reviews from friends I know in the restaurant industry. Worth every penny.

The water glasses are totally sublime. Thin and elegant. As with the best in humanity. #thinspo

It's a tasting menu- you may not have a choice. But, sea bream was delicious and quail was very tasty.
Susan HobbsAgosto 7, 2011
Attention to detail at Benu is fantastic. Food is amazing and the presentation if fabulous. Cosmic music box birthday cake, FTW! Also, save room for the end of meal puzzle box chocolates.
Fran SuFebbraio 21, 2019
Artistic presentation, attentive service. Innovative take on traditional dishes. However, many fusion twists resulted in mediocre taste. Quite disappointing for a 3 Michelin star restaurant... :(
natalie l.Gennaio 16, 2013
Definitely take a moment to peek in through the kitchen window from the sidewalk outside. Love to see how it all comes together!

Incredible tasting menu and wine pairing. The lobster soup dumplings were my favorite!!

Loved the faux sharkskin soup and dessert. Skip the wine pairing if sweeter wine isn't your thing.

The $160 tasting menu is worth every penny (entrées, $24-$40). Also: Try the faux shark's fin soup with truffle custard.
