    Bennethum’s food was nothing short of amazing, with each dish showcasing bold, flavorful ingredients and thoughtful preparation. What truly stood out, though, was the service. Paige was attentive, friendly, and made us feel like valued guests from start to finish. The atmosphere of the restaurant is warm and inviting, creating a perfect environment for both casual dining or a special night out. I highly recommend Bennethum’s for anyone looking for a great meal, fantastic drinks, and outstanding service.

    Fantastic meal all around, salad, lobster bisque soup and bread were a delicious way to start the meal, our entrees were prepared perfectly and delicious. My steak was cooked just the way I ordered it as was my wife’s burger. Our server Lauren took great care of us, thank you to everyone there that makes dinning out special.

    2nd year in a row that I took my crew for their work Christmas dinner there . It was nothing but over the top from drinks , appetizers, and dinner all very good! The service from Paige is amazing , always right on top of keeping drinks fresh . Her attitude is spot on and seems to be a very happy person. I would give our 2nd experience there nothing less than a 5-star review!
