“Hubby and I went for an early Valentine's Day dinner. I was skeptical choosing this location since the last few visits, the food has not been as great as Benjamin's is known for (something I've noticed a lot in the last year or so with other local restaurants -- the food quality in general has dropped). I ordered the special of the Cajun pork chops which were amazing and hubby ordered the filet which was an 8/10. We both got the brussels with bacon jam which is phenomenal! Our waitress Lindsay was awesome as well.The only negatives to note. --- this restaurant is small and quaint, it is a local gem, but it is desperately in need of some cosmetic updating. Also, we were aware that they charged a fee for using credit cards, but we paid with a debit card and were still charged the fee --- we were in a hurry, so we didn't make a fuss about it. If it happens again on our next visit, we will be sure to say something.“

I haven't tried anything but the philly and it is one of my two favorite phillys in this area. The other option isn't open for lunch, so that makes this sandwich number one at noon. One of these days I might try other menu items, but for now I'm happy ordering the same thing. If you're craving a cheese steak, skip the chains like Mike's and head down here instead.“

My friend got the crab cake (+1) with a house salad and risotto. Their risotto is so creamy good! All the food was wonderful. The desserts were beautiful. Sofia, our sweet waitress was beyond kind.

I have quite a few positive things to say about this place and it was worth the experience. I might come back for the convenience, but probably not because I’m craving something from their menu.“

Iron & Ale Bistro American • $$
3405 Candlers Mountain Rd, Lynchburg - 6.11 miles

“It's out in the middle of a busy mall, so you'd better be a people-watcher and not mind having a lot of random people stroll by you. The plus (or minus?) of that is you invariably see people you know, and they'll see you; they may even join you! Three of stopped there while running errands - I had a couple of beers, the 2nd in our group also just had a beer and the 3rd had a beer and a cheeseburger with fries. The beer was cold and they use one of those beer tap systems that fills the glass from the bottom up, so you get beer and not a lot of foam. Also, there's these neat keepsake 'fridge magnets in the bottom of each glass (that seals up the filling port in the bottom of the glass...). The Cheeseburger was a good size, where the 3rd cut a bit off for the 2nd and myself. Very, very good taste and looked nice as well. Fries were crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.“
