The service has definitely gone down hill. Servers are constantly trying to up-sell. A $21 bowl and an addition $14 to add chicken is ridiculous. Dinners feel rushed.

Besito has been a favorite restaurant of ours for many years, but last evening’s dinner was a big disappointment. First we were seated next to a huge party of ridiculously loud whooping people and had to beg to be moved. Three out of four of our dinners contained steak or shrimp that were so overcooked that they were inedible. Service was slow to the point that it took us 2 1/2 hours for dinner. We would have complained to a manager but there wasn’t one around. When one member of our party went to the restroom, the host attempted to take his chair!!

Hi Dear Janet, I’m so sorry to hear about your recent experience with us. As longtime guests, you deserve much better — from the food and service to the overall atmosphere. What you described is not up to our standards, and I truly apologize. I’ve shared your feedback with our team so we can address the issues, and I’d love the chance to speak with you directly and make this right. Please feel free to reach out to me at (516)484-3001. Thank you for bringing this to our attention — we hope to welcome you back for the experience you’ve come to expect from Besito. Best, Dastan
