Excellent food but very compact parking – I'm not a real big steak eater. I love beef and steak, but I just don't eat it that often. So, when my dad said he wanted to out to eat steak I really had no idea where to take him. I know I didn't want the usual chain steakhouse. So of course I googled restaurant's that offer steak's and came across Benjy's. The menu looked like it some interesting selections so I took my dad there. I was not disappointed. The food was excellent. I ordered the Crusted Chicken which was a very tender... read more

Good Food, Good Times, My Kind of Place – Benjy's is like a mini getaway from the bustle of Rice Village. Located a few blocks away from Village Arcade, Benjy's is one of my go-to spots for a drink or a bite to eat after a day of shopping. Funny how I always find my way there between 4pm and 7pm. Maybe it's not all a coincidence, that is afterall when happy hour is going on. I can go upstairs and lounge while sipping a blood orange margarita (which are the bomb) and choose something to munch on from the happy hour menu. It's... read more

Tasty – The dishes seem very hit or miss, but the majority of what I've had has been delicious. Only bad thing is the fact that on busy nights you have to find a spot on the street somewhere, which can be tricky. :-/

Good dinner, nice wine, decent value – Went on a Tuesday night with a business colleague. I've eaten here about 5 times in the last 15 years but this review is based on my most recent experience. The atmosphere is pretty hip. The menu options were good. Lots of continental types of cuisine with strong Asian influences (e.g., pork dumplings, Udon noodles). The wine selections went beyond California Chardonnay and Napa Valley Cabernet. We enjoyed a reasonably priced Mer Soleil Chardonnay (unoaked, Central Coast) that complemen... read more

Awesome service...and good food too. – What motivated me to go to the trouble of creating a profile to write a review was our outstanding service at the Benjy's on Washington last night (thank you Michael A.). It seems that lately many places are suffering in the area of service, so this experience really stood out. Our server was gracious, knowledgable and had a sense of humor without being annoying - what a breath of fresh air! The food was as usual both interesting, beautifully presented and most importantly tasty, but i'... read more

Great Anniversary Dinner – My wife is an architect so she loves going to places with contemporary environment and this restaraunt had it. To top that the food was really good. The appetizers were okay, the Pecan Chicken was better (loved the dipping sauce, the Chicken Sausage pizza was really good, but the Mom's Chocolate Cake was amazing. Make sure you reserve in advance ;-)
