Our Story
Born from fire. Driven by story.
THE BEGINNING
A Spark That Became a Flame
Benki was born from a simple belief that the best meals are not just about what’s on the plate, but about the stories they carry.
The Kannada word for fire, Benki represents transformation, turning raw ingredients into memories and shared experiences into lasting connections.
Founded by Sanket Reddy, Benki Hospitality was envisioned as a modern hospitality group that blends cultural heritage with contemporary culinary innovation. Inspired by journeys through kitchens, markets and dining tables across cultures. The brand was built to honour tradition while pushing creative boundaries.
Today, Benki Hospitality creates restaurants and culinary experiences rooted in emotion, storytelling, craft and immersive hospitality.
