Interesting place in an area where you shouldn't be out in the dark. We couldn't test the food because we simply weren't served at the counter. But the store is very rich in history with lots of photos.
I went during the AI expo at ash carter exchange, where I took a break at Ben's for lunch.
I had ordered Chilli Cheese Fries, and had no idea they have non-veg options as well. When I started eating it, I found they had an extra ingredient on it. When I check online, to my surprise I got to know they can add beef in it as well, I thought even my order had beef. Since I don't eat beef, I went to Maria & Jay, the cashiers(sorry if I am wrong with the names)...

Loved the atmosphere, and the chili dog was worth a visit. The best thing of all was that the original Ben's wife, Virginia, stopped by to say hello and make sure we were enjoying our meal.
