Benteaux — Restaurant in Hammond

We were visiting family this weekend and decided to try a new Asian spot I found. Super fun vibe inside. Our waiter David, was absolutely amazing. Best waiter we've had in awhile, pre bussed, filled drinks, juggling an almost full house. Food came out rather quickly. We literally ordered a bit of everything. Nothing we ordered was bad. Great portions, presentation was great, and the fusion flavors were very nicely put together. The stand out dishes were the crab rangoon, actual real crab. The praline riblets, tender with amazing flavor profile, the Seoul bowl, the chili chicken, the beef and mushrooms and all three of the desserts. The vanilla bourbon bun was just amazing. Fresh ingredients and we didn't feel like crap after eating, nothing was heavy. FYI parties of 6+ have an automatic gratuity added. The only flaw we had was the ventilation, it got a tad smokey once they got busy. Also the baos and the Rangoon could've had a tad more filling; but taste was great. So glad to see Hammond upping their restaurant game. I hope this place does really well, we will definitely come back when we're in...

I have been wanting to try Benteaux since they opened and finally got the chance to. 100% my new favorite spot in downtown. The staff were super friendly, aesthetically pleasing environment, quick service, and very reasonably priced. Obviously the food was amazing- the potstickers and sauce that comes with it were amazinggg. The shrimp rangoons were way better than I expected- (I don’t like pimento cheese but my bf wanted them lols) and they ended up being my favorite thing we got. For our main courses we got the pepper jelly chicken and the chili chicken and they were definitely gone within a matter of minutes (would be seconds if I could actually use chopsticks) The chicken was tender juicy and crispy and the sauces on both were a perfect blend of sweet and spicy. Of course had to try their ube dessert (idk what ube is but it doesn’t matter) and it was very light and refreshing and it didn’t make you feel awful if you ate the whole thing. Kiefy was a great server, the meal was a 10/10 and I will be back very soon to...

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while!!! Our waiter, Maya, was really helpful with our questions about the menu and elevated our experience overall with her service. The stir fry exceeded my expectations and had really good flavors. I’m also a big dessert fan, so I’m really happy with the selection and variety offered here; I just had to try all of the ones available! My favorite definitely had to be the Matcha Crème Brûlée though, light sweetness and a satisfying sugar crack! Slowly but surely, I’ll try the whole menu!! The preparation, presentation, and the locally sourced ingredients of the dishes and flavors definitely show through. Super happy with my first visit and hope to come...
