This was our first time here and it couldn’t have been any better, the food was delicious and reasonably priced. The staff was friendly and the restaurant Itself was beautiful. 10/10 I can’t wait to try their dinner menu

Very happy 579 Benefit re-opened! It is such a neighborhood gem! Great gathering place for family and friends with plenty of parking. Liked the items on the old menu much better than new menu, especially the old wood grilled pizza, etc...!

My wife and I had the clam zuppa for the first time. It was delicious! We were worried if it would be spicy but it wasn't at all. So good and a lot of flavor. We were taken care of by Stephanie who was amazing. We were also greated by the Chef which we both thought was extremely nice and personable. Overall we had a great night and met a few new friends too while we were there.
