I agree - Overhyped! – First, their address has changed, so please update your site. They are now in the Stoney Point Shopping Center. Went there last night w/ a friend and we were both dissapointed on several items. First, the server was friendly, but did not have enough time to take care of us and took forever to get to us. The BBQ was good, but the baked beans were heated straight from the can. They were supposed to be BBQd beans, but I didn't detect even a hint of BBQ sauce and they had never seen an oven (which is what ... read more

Okay Food - HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! – My mother, husband and two children went to Benny's last night for my mother's birthday. We waited for everything FOREVER! They have 2 servers in the entire place and while the place isn't that big, they struggled the entire time we were there. The food was okay, the type of barbeque sandwich you can get anywhere, probably not any better than Famous Dave's. I had a restaurantcom certficate that I BOUGHT about a year ago and they refused to take it. They stated that "They don't work ri... read more

Way too overhyped – They call this roast beef where I come from. Not even a hint that it was a beef BBQ sandwich. However, it was a good roast beef sandwich. Building exterior leaves much to desire. Not worth the drive if you live north of the James River. Onion Rings were too soggy - might have been OK if they had been recently fried.

Average – Unfortunately, the local nostalgic hype carries this bbq farther then it should. Sure it's good, but many other places are doing it better. The "famous" Onion Rings were frankly sub-par. Service was friendly but slow for a non-busy night.

Best BBQ in the City of Richmond!!! – I've been all over the world and tried BBQ from everywhere. The only BBQ that comes even close to Benny's is Ralph's BBQ in NC. My wife and I went because we live close, but have never been. Shame on us! We didn't know what we were missing. The atmosphere was cozy but small. We ate at the bar. I ordered the Chopped Pork BBQ sandwich w/coleslaw and Hotsauce, side of Redskin Potato Salad and Baked Beans. I was shocked how the sandwich was so Delicious! It melts in your mouth. We're big BBQ... read more

Best BBQ I've had... – This is my first review and I joined just so I could comment on this BBQ. It's really terrific...I ate half of it before I even realized there was no sauce on it! You should try it if you haven't already - you won't regret it. The only thing lacking was sweet tea...making your own at the table just isn't the same!
