    By far the best food and service in the area . The only negative thing I can say is they do not have much in the way for vegetarian dishes for my wife but they will put together something if asked . Overall Benathums is upscale with an excellent wait staff …. Highly recommend!

    Calamari was superb. Ribs and schnitzel were generous portions and very tasty. For the quality of our food, we have no reservations paying a little more for a great meal. May I not forget that our dinner reservation was made for our Anniversary and they even took a little extra time and put an Anniversary greeting on our table for us. It made us feel special. Gift cards will be purchased from us to allow special people in our lives to experience a great evening for themselves.

    Once again, it was a wonderful dining experience in regards to meals and service. Our table of four enjoyed different entrees, and they were all delicious. We highly recommend Bennethums.
