The food at Benteng (as my family and I call the restaurant) is delicious and appropriate for various occasions. If you want to have good food for a wedding (speaking of wedding, you can have yours here too, like my parents did), a special holiday, or even at home with your family, whatever occasion, you name it, Benteng has food that will be satisfying and suitable. The appetisers stir your excitement and expectation for the main courses, which are well worth the wait. And just when you think the show is over, the desserts make for a great finale to the meal. You can also enjoy a nice stroll in the restaurant garden if you have children or family members who are around that age. My family and I have made numerous visits and have not gotten bored of it. You can't simply leave the place unsatisfied. Highly recommended, not just for one visit,...
ย ย ย Read moreWent here for a wedding reception dinner. In Medanese Chinese tradition, it seems the custom is to have the reception wholly seated. Food will be distributed to the tables.
We see that the servants are prompt and very welcoming. Food is served also quickly, they observe when your plates are dirty and offers exchange (this is common in Chinese restaurants).
For the quality of the food, we can say they are delicious. We are served appetizer (fried shrimp), crab soup, beef black pepper, fried noodles, tofu, steamed fish curry, and ice cream.
Could not comment on the price here since we are invited as guest, but we are happy to visit this place. It is a nice experience...
ย ย ย Read moreI was visiting the town for my bossโs kid wedding. My local friend asked me to meet up at this restaurant. And thatโs an order, you have to respect (give face) to Medanese. Theyโre one of the most loyal and โroyalโ a man can expect for a friend. He ordered everything, I mean crazy everything. Tons of food served on our table that night. The venison was superb. Shark fin soup, I felt bad eating it, but it tasted wonderul that I almost cried. Hoysom/sea cucumber had the best soft texture I can only dream of. Suffice to say, that night was one of the best experience Iโve...
