This restaurant in the Hotel Nikko in Polanco was highly recommended by the concierge and another friend. It is Japanese with a very complex menu that is poorly translated into English. The wait staff could not explain the various options adequately. The sushi selections were per piece and very expensive. We sat in the dining room at 6:30 pm and... More

It is good, everything is mini even the tables and place to seat. Go if you are near by, if not try going to Lomas or Santafe. They have better Japanese choices.

It is expensive but it is the best sushi in Mexico City.

... and that's why I keep coming back. Truth of the matter is Benkay has the best fish and traditional dishes of any Japanese restaurant I've been to in Mexico City. They really have the lot: imported fish, local fish, sushi dishes, hot dishes, traditional meals, Japanese beers, a wide range of Sake, very good service and a very very... More

We like japanese food and have visited most well regarded japanese restaurants in Mexico City and Benkay is by far the best. It is located inside the Nikko hotel which is owned by Japan Airlines, so it is very authentic. Benkay was recently relocated and remodeled within the hotel building itself. It appears to be a bit smaller than before... More

My favorite dishes are the spinach salad (starter), the tuna sashimi (so fresh) and lychee sorbet (my favorite). It's not cheap but it's worth a... More

This restaurant in the Nikko hotel was outstanding, we stayed at the hotel on business and on the first night went there. We chose a combo menu in which the chef picks 5-6 different specialties and they are served in sequence. I had never had that in a Sushi restaurant before, so was skeptical, but it was absolutely delicious and... More

This is one of the best options for sushi in Mexico City. Food is fresh & service is neat.

Every time I head to Mexico City, this is the first place I go. I sit at the sushi bar - which is great for people watching - and have a nice, long, multi-course meal. The set course meals are excellent - you get a little taste of everything - and usually I'll order a separate order of sashimi and... More
