Trendy but Good – It's a hot tredy joint in Rice Village. Great food. Entrees are reasonably priced and good portions. Appetizers are over priced and skimpy. Wine prices are above average, but not outrageous. Worth the trip and the wait. The kitchen is it's strongest point. Upstairs bar is a hang out for the younger crowd and makes a poor holding area for the restaurant que. Downstairs bar is crowded and in the main path of from the kitchen to the tables. The lay is most definately the low point of this otherwise "neat" plac... read more

private hideaway – I've been to benjy's numerous times, but I've never known about their small dining room upstairs. We had a cozy dinner for two away from the excitement downstairs. For our meal we ventured off the menu for the specials...they did not disappoint.

Best salads in the city!! – This is the best lunch spot in the entire city. The lunch menu features an abundance of entree salads and other gems at reasonable prices. Service is always great, and we always have fun when we eat there. But, we are FANATICAL about the salads. ALL of the salads!! I have never had a better selection of AMAZING salads to choose from!!

Better look elsewhere – Benjys is an o.k. place to take a date, but it's definitely not the place to find someone. Plus the drinks are PRICEY

over-rated – Although the food is above average, I would hardly say there is much of a singles scene-unless you are looking for an older married man or woman.The times I was there the service was also only average.What was worse, was that they openly aalowed people they knew to skip in line. While sometimes practiced at other restaurants,at the majority they are at least discreet.

Just whatever...... – The owner has too much attitude - the ambiance surrounds you in a lubys-type cafeteria with the plastic chairs and table arrangements. Good food - great drinks - just not as happening any more like it used to. Needs a new wine list.
