Restaurants in Benson

“We had a late lunch here and the food was wonderful! I had shrimp tacos, and others ordered chile rellanos and chixken and steak enchiladas. Good flavors all around! It's a small building next to and behind the Rock Shop in Benson. Staff was friendly and quick with our orders. Highly recommend!”

“During my Rocherster friends' visits to Tucson each winter, my husband, my friends and I always make it a point to eat at least two or three times (if not more) at the Horseshoe Cafe. We all love the friendly staff and great service we get there, but we especially love the BBQ ribs. Their beef and green chili burritos, corn chowder and chicken fried steak are also excellent. We highly recommend this historical restaurant if you want a quiet, relaxing, tasty meal. As a bonus, their bathrooms are always clean and well stocked.”

“We had a wonderful experience at the Mescal Bar and Grille. Rosa was very welcoming and inviting! Even though we came 10 minutes before the kitchen closed we were welcomed on Xmas eve to have a meal. We met some great community new neighbors Larry (the joker) and Sue (J6). Thank you all for your hospitality to our family. From us all at the XX Ranch of Mescal (The Duey Family) Merry Xmas!!!”

“I have eaten a lot of Sonora dogs in my day, and I have a couple of places that I tend to go to because I like them the best. However, I had them ar El Asadero today and they were some of the best if not the best ones I’ve ever had good job folks Thank you.”

“Carson was very personable and friendly. she was attentive without being intrusive. We enjoyed her interaction. The food was good and the drinks were generous and priced fair. We will definitely be back.”

“We stopped on our way to Tombstone and loved it. So filling, delicious and made to order! They have delicious homemade food! Their muffins are yummy and come hot out of the oven. Very homey atmosphere too. If you are going through this area, it is a must stop.”

“I am very disappointed that I'm writing this review however, my experience was horrible. Not only was the service horrible but the waitresses attitude was as bad as the food. We placed an order which she messed up twice, and when I requested it to be corrected on the check she said, we'll you ate it so you have to pay for it. I'm sorry but what I ordered is not what she wrote on the check. Furthermore we are not psychic so we had no idea how the food should have looked based on we we ordered vs what arrived to the table. Another waitress corrected the check but that experience caused me to NOT want to return. Worse is everyone who ate there got sick. My food smelt like canned cat food every time I went to take a bite and luckily I only took 2 bites the rest went in the trash. My mother ordered a bean and cheese burrito which smelt like tuna fish. My father had a taco bowl that started out having ground beef but then the bottom turned into something that looked and smelled like tuna fish and he spent all last night puking and diarrhea, so we are suspecting they got food poisoning. $60 to be thrown in the trash and to ge sick. sorry but we will NEVER eat here again and if you're passing through I suggest you drive on in to Tucson or Willcox for your dining needs. I will say this though, my 1st experience here was fantastic. We were served by the owners and he and his wife provided excellent customer service and our food was amazing but this last experience cost them my business. Sad because Benson doesn't have much to offer to begin with, but I'll be taking my money elsewhere.”

“The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Great prices and great history!”

“really good food. Papa tacos are great”

“It’s a good place to have your meal”

“Great tasting food and generous portions. Bella, our server, was very helpful and had a great attitude. We'll certainly be back!”

“My family loves eating here. It’s our favorite R&R Pizza restaurant. Thank you!”

“Mikayla, our waitress, was awesome! Just when we needed something, she was there! Perfect personality for this job! She really made our visit enjoyable! Thanks Mikayla!”

“We had hamburgers and they're pretty good and their potato wedges are huge! I didn't get a picture of them because my roommate and I were just enjoying hanging out together, but those wedges are even bigger than steak fries you'd get at places. 🥔😲 Service was great, also, and she checked on us often to make sure everything was good 😊”

“OMG! Where to start? First off, any restaurant that lists ranch on the menu as a separate item excites me. The liquid gold is something to write home about. We got the mild wings, terrific! The G&F speciality pizza was perfect. What stood out? The Megan fries with cheese.....I felt like I was back in Wisconsin! Stupendous job!

Our delivery driver came right to our KOA site and was super nice. We'll be ordering again before we hit the road!!”

“good place to have Ice Cream”

“Found this delightful bakery quite by accident but what i would have missed!! Lemon bars, key lime pie, cinnamon rolls, and sinfully delicious Black Forest Cake to name a few. Unfortunately I was just visiting your wonderful town and have moved on but I hope the locals are a huge supporter of this fine establishment along with the other stores of Benson. What a great place!!!”

“Superb customer service! The drinks are phenomenal. I just tried my first salad from here and it did not disappoint!!!”

“We love the food. Made to order and special requests. I get my burrito fried/chimichunga. They have fresh avocado medium hot sauce to add to the wonderful flavor. Friendly staff! Makes us feel welcome. We get take out. The carne asada is soaked in a delicious brine. The beans are never sour or old-delicious!”

“Friendly, clean, professional and personable. Two gentlemen, working at about 6:00PM on 8/26/26 were awesome! After a brief discussion on sandwich theory they identified and made the perfect sandwich for me. The type of service you only find a really expensive boutique type places. Well done to these two gentlemen and management.”

“Young girl made my pizza and cashiered me out. She made a WONDERFUL pizza, taking care not to have it look sloppy. Then was very polite and smiling at the counter. Job well done, JADALYN....”

“I am beyond happy with the service I received today. I normally wouldn't be able to eat taco bell. The amazing girl in the back preparing the food made me a burrito I could eat, and it was FANTASTIC! I can't thank her enough for being so great!”
