Absolutely delicious… I got the adult grilled cheese. It was smoked turkey with 2 kinds of cheese and bacon and tomato. Probably the best grilled cheese I have ever had. And their mac & cheese was absolutely fantastic as well. It almost tasted like an Alfredo sauce everything here is supper good!

Always a great time at Ben’s. Love that they’ve reopened and captured the feel and taste of the previous version. The menu is good, plenty of variety (just missing the original hush puppies). Most recent trip I had the smoked wings and a bacon cheeseburger. Both were excellent. And the sweet tea is as good as ever. Staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean. We ate outside and enjoyed the cool night, but staff came by often to make sure we had everything we needed.

Never been to a restuarant where the staff calls their customers liars until this evening. One of the staff called my wife and someone's children liars this evening.

I don't recommend this place at all unless you like being called a liar. Their staff definitely needs some training and manners!

It was the most awful meal we've eaten in years. The potato skins were like crispy chips. one wasn't even but about a third the size it should be. The manager was huffy when we sent them back. I had a burger that was nothing more than a smoked Bubba burger. So dry it has to be covered in mayo to choke it down. My husband ordered sliced brisket and they brought out a pile of burned fatty shreds. If course it went back. Overall it was a total waste of over 50.00 . Nothing at all like the Ben's everyone loved.
