Decent bar scene upstairs, terrible food, bad service – The FOOD was TERRBILE. My wife's steak was tough and flavorless & they think they are so good that they don't carry any steak sauce (talk about misconceptions!). My margarita pizza was terrible as well. I think they simply picked up food that had been lying around all day and popped it into the microwave. Our waiter was by far one of the worst waiters I've come across in a while. While my wife was trying to decide what she wanted, he simply walked away rather than helpi... read more

Nice atmosphere, tasty food – We went on a Tuesday evening around 8:00 and the place was packed! No problem, we went and ate upstairs in the lounge. The waitstaff here is freindly and comfortable. We had drinks and then ordered. The food came out quickly. My Ahi Tuna was excellent; I cleaned my plate. The decor is modern yet casual. I will probably make a reservation next time. First impression was very good for me and I will return,

*EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE* – I went in last night (Friday night) for a bday party w/ 5 other girls. The place was packed!! We were told the wait was an hour...we went upstairs to the lounge for a drink to wait. After about 20mins our waiter gave us a complimentary pizza. We were surprised and delighted! The pizza was sooo good. The manager, Keith, came up after the hour wait to let us know we were next. FINALLY, after an hour and a half, we got our table. Literally two minutes later we had complimentary appetizers on the... read more

Great date restaurant! – This is the perfect place to go on a date. The atmosphere is hip, yet romantic, and the food and service are wonderful. The wine list is excellent and the halibut special I had recently was delicious. The bar upstairs makes for a nice place to enjoy an after dinner drink too. Definitely make reservations a couple days early if you want a 7-9 p.m. reservation on a weekend. Expect to spend about $100 - $150 per couple with wine, appetizers and your main course.

A Favorite... – This restaurant has been a favorite for years. The goat cheese appetizer was fantastic! Don't forget to visit the lounge upstairs.

Chocolate Cake is a Girl's Best Friend! – Fellas- interested in a little lovin' with your date after dinner? DON'T SKIP DESSERT! Well- not here. This chocolate cake has been scientifically proven to yield the same results as that 24Karat gem sitting in Tiffany's window, but only a few grand less. Check please!

Great food, Great atmosphere – Just got back from my first trip to this establishment. The food was GREAT, well seasoned and very tasty. The service and presentation was excelent. My date and I were very impressed by the atmosphere and service. We were even allowed to sit and talk after dinner until we were ready to leave. The price was also very reasonable.

Disappointing – One of my college friends came into town and the last night she was here, I took her out to Benjy's. I had heard good things. We went in about 8:30 on a Monday or Tuesday night. Headed upstairs to the bar where we were ignored by the bartender who was talking to a couple sitting at the bar. We walked up to the bar...went back and sat down and he never acknowledged that we were there. We headed downstairs where we told the hostess, we'd prefer a table since we were not served at the bar. The food was good. Our... read more

Best Dinner We've Ever Had! – My husband and I dine at Benjy's once a month or so and never leave disappointed. We love how they change the decor and menu every few months and the waitstaff is always personable. Last night we dined w/ a large group and went with our waiter, Kent's, suggestions and "WOW" is all I can say! Roasted peach puff pastry followed by any unbelievable blue nose bass w/ a Morrocan twist was surprising and wonderful, the chef is a genius! Our guests were there for the first time and could not stop ravin... read more
