► We often use the present perfect to ask / tell somebody about a past action for the first time. We don't ask / say when the action happened.
Have you been to that new Italian restaurant?
► Then we use the simple past to ask / talk about the details.
"When did you go there?" "I went last weekend."
► We use the simple past NOT the present perfect with when and past time expressions, e.g., yesterday, last week.
When did you see the movie?NOT~~When have you seen the movie?~~
l saw it last weekNOT~~I've seen it last week~~

been or gone?

► In the present perfect, we use been to (NOT~~gone to~~OR~~been in~~) to say that somebody has visited a place.

Have you beento the new Japanese restaurant on Pine Street?
► We use gone to when somebody goes to a place and is still there.
My parents have gone to the US for their vacation. They're having a great time.
