Best beef in town. I could easily eat this for dinner every day and be satisfied. I'm so fortunate to live next door. Definitely a weekly fixture for me now. Unbelievable flavor, in such a small spot. The food literally can't be beat. -The Nephilim Slayer

★★★★★ 5.0 Dennis Rosenshein · Nov 2025

Cash only, so be prepared there, but otherwise absolutely solid. The beef was nice and flavorful and juicy, freshly sliced when you place in your order. They care deeply about cleanliness and make mean beef and fries. I tried the Nephilim challenge and got close, it'll fill you right up and then some. I will for sure be back to tackle the Nephilim again and to order some take-out.

Must try spot in Lewiston, we don’t have anything else like it. If you’re like me and rare isn’t your thing, the chef is happy to grill it to your liking (pictured right). My husband likes the rare roast beef (pictured left). Tallow fries were delicious. The owner and his father chatted with us while we ate our lunch, very nice people. Career chefs. You will not be disappointed.

Phenomenal! My son and I went for lunch today, Everything was delicious and fresh! The beef was as tender as it comes. The Bene's three way was perfect, right down to the sauces and fries. Only bad thing I can find is that I live an hour away.
