First time trying. Found on Open Table and took wife for Birthday. Nothing special to look out, sort of out of way but no complaints. Plenty of parking, food was decent and prices were respectable. Would recommend for a casual meal but if you're looking for ambiance not so much. Again We'd return!

From the incredible chicken parm and spaghetti & meatballs to the delicious pretzel knots and heavenly tiramisu, everything was absolutely fantastic! The service was just as wonderful as the food. We drove 2.5 hours to dine here, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat! We’re already telling everyone we know to check it out! Benny’s, you’ve won us over, and we can’t wait to come back! ❤️

Always know the food is going to be great at the Front Room. Shepherds pie is spectacular- and thats coming from a couple of brits for whom that is a lifelong favourite dish. Atmosphere is casual and warm, service personal and friendly. A place to keep coming back to.

Had dinner there with a friend before we went to the palace theater. we go there every time, it’s become a tradition. They never pressure us to rush. We have all the time that we need. We love sitting at one of the small round tables near the window because we have a little more space, are out-of-the-way and can have private conversations. we order multiple appetizers and they are phenomenal! from the bread and the cheese to the meatballs to the fries the chicken tenders and even sharing a burger, everything is delish! service is awesome.

We come here 3-4 times each year - setting, ambience, service - always excellent. Food a bit more varied - some dishes are excellent (ask your server) - others a bit less so. But value is high and definitely worth a visit. Drink menu excellent, wine list needs a touch up.
