Dropped by last night for a quick dinner about an hour before close. The staff was extremely sweet and attentive. Our server, Rochelle made sure we had everything we needed throughout our dining experience. Every meal comes with complimentary bread and mixed salad, I enjoyed the bread but the salad was a bit soggy, which could have been due to the time of night. I had the 16oz Ribeye and loaded baked potato which was cooked to perfection. Other people in my party had the Surf & Turf and another the Lasagna. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we also purchased a bottle of wine which was very reasonably priced. This a cute establishment with a true barn aesthetic, but a more upscale dining experience truly marrying the best of both worlds. Of you want a good steak or hearty meal, give Bennie’s a try.

Very enjoyable dinner. The staff is super good!

Steak wasn't very tender and not seasoned well. I think it was just an off night because normally very good.

Ivy took care of us, it was her first week working here. She didn’t need to tell us, she do great and she is sweet and honest. She gave fantastic service and everything was as ordered. The food was excellent, we had fried shrimp appetizers, ribeye and lamb chops. The baked potatoes are the best we ever had. Our food was delicious and cooked to perfection. We all love the salad, a traditional dressing for years, some refer to it as wilted, but it is so delicious. Not only did we have a great meal, but an employee helped us by jumping our dead battery. He wouldn’t accept a gratuity, he just wanted to help. We came here so many times in the past 40 years and we have never been disappointed. This night was special to remember a recently departed friend.

we went in kinda late. they are open til 10pm. We had called (it was about 8:40) to see if we could still get a table. The lady said if we could be there by 9, that the kitchen starts shutting down if they aren't busy. I told her we couldn't get there that soon, that we were on the mainland and it would take us probably at least 30 minutes or more to get there. She told us to come on and then we would see. We got there around 9:30pm, the receptionist saw us coming, walked to the other side to talk with some ladies, (we waited approx. 3-5 minutes for her to come back) then finally walked back over to us. She said the kitchen had already shut down. So, we left. I told my boyfriend that I guess they didn't want our hundred dollars or so tonight.
I get it that you want to close up and go home, but I was taught that business is business. They still had people dining, but I guess they just don't care if they make money or not. Very disappointed in this establishment. But also, if you're open til 10, you should still take in customers and serve them appropriately. We just wanted a good steak for dinner.

Horrible food. Steaks not eatabl. Fish soggy. Chicken overcooked. Never go back.

The steaks were awful! Tasted like 3 week old ground beef! It was supposed to be sirloin, was not fit for human consumption. Our waiter took 6 to 8 business days to bring out our check. Waiter seemed bothered that he had to wait on us. It was also hot as hell in there and they only had 4 window units for the whole barn. Will never return, I would rather go to Longhorn! The chicken tenders looked like frozen Tyson tenders. Never again. The steak fries tasted like frost bitten crap that has been in the freezer for years. No way! I hope I don’t end up half dead with food poisoning at 3 am! The chairs were hard as rocks and heavy you could not move them. Gave us a 95% empty ketchup bottle also. The worst of all was the steaks, they were not sirloins! Tasted and looked just like ground beef!

We went to the Red Barn and had one of the worst experiences that we have had in the ten years we have been going there. Our waiter was extremely rude to the point he yelled at two of the ladies that politely asked for a refill, when trying to get the steaks to the person who ordered it our waiter stated it doesn’t matter they are all cooked the same which is not how it was ordered, three people ordered the sirloin and received three different cuts of steak that were 100% not sirloin nor cooked to the way they ordered it! One of the ladies in our party got a sweet potato that came out slightly larger than golf ball. One lady in our party was out of Diet Coke for a while and asked for a refill when our food came, he said “I”ll get it later I have to get this food out.” But then made sure to ignore it and refill every other drink that wasn’t empty first almost as payback for asking. We did have a large party so gratuity was automatic, and you could tell he took advantage of this. When we got our checks two of them were messed up and our waiter stated “I’m not reprinting the checks I will just pay for it” and then jerked the card out of our hand without letting us check that it was fixed. By far the worst experience we’ve ever had, we couldn’t wait to get out of there.
