Be aware when you dine in there, they don't tell you that they add it service charge on your bill. And when you paid with credit card, the tips section was blank [hoping that you will give extra tips] - [very tricky] 👎👎👎 I got a bad tomato side for the quesadila when I ordered take out. It went bad 🤢 [how many days in the fridge already]. And the white sauce that they gave, it supposed to be sour cream sauce, but this was like just a mayonnaise, and the chicken was kinda dry. So, ate it together was just too blend 😖

I always get the blackened tacos either shrimp or fish and it never fails so much flavor. The staff are great and I happened to go karaoke night when they updated seating. Drinks here are always a hit and reasonably priced. Definitely check them out.

Had Nachos...were meh..refried beans in the description but none on the nachos. Barely any quacamole on it and just very average. Also had chicken tacos and campechano tacos..both were well flavored but again, stingy with the Cucumber, radish, and just a sliver of lime for four tacos was disappointing. The service is good, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is cute but they use to be much better.

Delicious food. Got the homemade beef rib soup, Birria tacos, and beef tripe soup. Spacious location for large groups if needed. Grand reopening happening soon, drink specials.

★★★★★ 5.0 Anderson Morocho · Oct 2025

I recently had dinner at Benji’s, and it was a truly great experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and nice music that made it perfect for both casual meals and special occasions. The service was excellent; the staff were friendly, attentive, and ensured everything arrived quickly and just the way we wanted. As for the food, it was absolutely delicious every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Overall, Benji’s is the kind of place you look forward to returning to, offering great food, amazing service, and comfort.
