   Benny and Mary's gave us an absolutely world class experience. From their thoughtful, hand-written "Happy Anniversary" note, to the exceptional food, to the premium care and service their staff provided, our night was so memorable. This will now be our go-to restaurant for special occasions. Our only regret is that we didn't discover it earlier. Thank you Benny and Mary's for making our anniversary night so special!

   Very nice restaurant inside. Has a quaint, library feel. The hostesses were friendly and sat us quickly. Our waiter, Ryan (? female), was very slow. We sat at 7:05pm on a Sunday night, and there were maybe 5 other parties in the restaurant... nowhere near capacity. We didn't receive our drinks until after 7:45p. Not sure what the issue was but it was just a very slow service for drinks and taking our order. The food came out quickly, however. The rack of lamb was good, good flavor and the mint/yogurt sauce was tasty. The sea bass was cooked well with a citrusy flavor and the osso bucco was also good per my friend. The drinks were ok. Not spirit forward enough for my taste. I ordered the bartender's choice and wanted tequila and spice, but the spice was lacking. The adult green juice was a hit but the holy trilogy was also a bit of a miss as my friend, who is not a big drinker, said that she would hardly taste any of the spirits in the drink. We had the warm coffee cake and bananas foster for dessert. The warm coffee cake was good... although not much more special than what you can get at a grocery store. The bananas foster was a little confusing as there was a brioche toast beneath and the "bananas foster" on top with a scoop of ice cream, but the banana slices weren't even cooked in the foster sauce... they were just raw on top. Tasted ok but would have liked the bananas to be actually flambe with the sauce. Overall, the food was ok but the lack of service won't cause us to be back

   Food and overall ambience are nice. Service not so great - it feels like a “chore/work” for server to explain menu items and request water refills. We ordered a bottle of mimosa w/ flight add - service did not indicate flavor of juices and what order. Restaurant should consider learning from Ocean 48 to improve on service.

    We came for a holiday dinner. Service was good. Food was over seasoned and too salty.
