Great new addition to the neighborhood! Good sized menu with a ton of options - everything was super fresh with a ton of vegan/vegetarian options. Also loved the margaritas, all syrups made in-house. Will add to my NE rotation!

Went into Benditos for Cinco de Drinko and just loved the quesabirrias!! Best I’ve had by far. The margaritas do not disappoint and the staff is very welcoming and friendly. Also, loved the music. This will be my new go to spot!

Great variety of margaritas and flavorful vegetarian food. We happened upon this wonderful new restaurant, so glad we did. We will be back…. Several times.

We had a great dinner! My poke dish was well prepared. I loved the subtle pickled chilies and onions that came with my dish.There are some interesting gluten free and vegan options that I will go back to try.

Wow! This restaurant is delicious! It is easily my new favorite! Tony and Arturo were so gracious and hospitable! A lot of restaurant staff don’t realize how important it is to be warm and hospitable to customers and they’ve got that genuinely here. We ordered a chicken burrito verde (served ala carte but they are generous with the toppings, and after tasting the beans I ordered a side!) and spinach enchiladas were both so deliciously flavored and wholesome, we enjoyed every bite. They have an amazing flan here so if you like a good flan, be sure to order one. Being 100% honest, if it was between Bendito’s Latin Fusion and bringing back blossoming lotus from the dead, I’d hands down choose Bendito’s! Tony told me they’re all from Bend and wanted to bring their fusion style to Portland. And I’m so happy they did and that it’s nearby. In a nutshell; deliciously favored clean eating, a wide array of scrumptious dishes, a warm environment/vibe and excellent hospitality! The guys Tod me their margaritas are made fresh and I will definitely be trying one on my next visit which will most likely be soon.

Just tried Benditos Latin Fusion for the first time. Had lunch. Very, very tasty-incredible flavors!! Had the Chile Relleno. Quaint and cute space in a historic building. Met Chef Jorge. Can't wait to take my wife. I seldom post a review, bit I felt compelled after this great meal.

Visited for supper yesterday, I had Salvadorian ribs, great preparation, tender and not greasy. Wife sampled a mojito with her meal and raved about it.

Just tried this restaurant and it's wonderful!! The food, environment and hospitality is all 5 Stars! I didn't get a chance to try their fresh margaritas but will next visit. I love that it's a Peruvian/Mexican fusion and it's is hands down delicioso! I plan to be back very soon! My recommends from my first trip; spinach enchiladas, chicken burrito & flan. The staff are partners and are warm and very hospitable and friendly. Bendito's Pdx is my new fave for sure!

The service was very nice, but unfortunately, the food, which was very expensive--one might say overpriced--was a big disappointment. The quesadilla appetizers were tasty but after that, the food was mediocre at best. The chicken fajitas was heavily seasoned with chili powder and salt and that's all. The tortillas that came with the fajitas were dry and tasted like they came right out of the microwave from the grocery bag. The paella was overloaded with onions and overcooked --hard--shrimp. There was other seafood as well, which was okay but flooded in a runny tomato sauce that was spicy hot yet lacking in flavor. The margarita, which we had been looking forward to, was large but pretty tasteless. Overall, the meal was a huge disappointment. This is a new place and I hope things improve.

Really excited to try this place but it looks like it is no more?? Friday at 6 pm. It's all closed up.

We stopped in here on a Fri night, before 6pm. Place was not busy, and our host/server/bartender was great! Service was great, drinks were great and the guacamole he made was A+!! BUT, that's where it ends. The food was meh. We are from AZ/Southern CA and this was by far the most bland "Latin fusion" food we have ever had. Carne Asada tacos were decent despite being on the small side for the price, but nothing to write home about. We ordered two different types of enchiladas and while the presentation was lovely, where is the flavor? So bland! And the chicken quesadilla- forget about it. Lame. We really wanted to LOVE this place- lord knows we spent enough money there... but honestly- more flavor is to be had at Taco Bell. Bummer.

The place was a wonderful find, We will be going back. All four of us enjoyed very much what dinner we picked. The Margarita were large and very tasty. This is a 5 Star Restraint so you have to expect it to be a little pricey, but worth it, Thanks Tony and your crew for a wonderful dinner.

Amazing food, amazing drinks, and some of the best service I've ever received! I highly recommend their margaritas and the food has a very authentic taste. The staff and atmosphere were fun and made the experience even better.

So looking forward to what sounded like some great food, considering others' reviews. In a word: bland. Red sauce on enchilada (what I could find of it) was tasteless. I don't want to go on and on... I just don't want people to spend a chunk of $ on some of the poorest "Latin" food I have had. This is a very new restaurant and I am hoping they can gear up to preparing better food.

I was at Peets Coffee on NE 15th and Broadway. I was hungry and saw a quaint, cute looking bistro next door. I had a wonderful lunch served by the owner Tony. He was pleasant and is just starting this business. The food was tasty and healthy. I felt sorry for him as it was kind of slow. Let's support this fine man and business!! I plan on taking my family there for dinner. The Margaritas looked amazing, but I didn't have one. ​

Amazing food and amazing drinks! I had the fajitas mixtas, they were so flavorful and juicy. I suggest trying the chamoy margarita it is a passionfruit margarita lined with chamoy and a delicious chile lime salt rim. I honestly regret not taking a picture. Everything was so presentable and delicious and staff was very friendly. I will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely fabulous food. The paella was excellent and lovely flan for dessert. Very nice atmosphere and the service was excellent!
