Mediocre food at best
Friendly staff, good wine but mediocre pasta with sausage that left me with a stomach ache in the middle of the night. Not sure if it was the pasta but the dish was a bit cold and not very flavorable. The wait staff was very nice and the wine was good but eat somewhere else if you want good food.

Bad service mediocre food
We waited forever for food, for the waiter to take our drink order, for our plates to be cleared. The people behind us were complaining loudly that they'd been waiting for so long. We walked out 66.OO later wishing that we'd just ordered take out and stayed home. I've been there before and had better food, but forgot how slow and inept the service is. We won't go there again.

Great Food at a Great Price
The specials here are a real value and the quality of the food is fantastic. Not just run of the mill bar fare, but delicious and interesting entrees. And did I mention the great specials? There always seems to be one and its such a great value.

Great Brunch!
I went there for mothers day brunch with a group of 6. It was great! Some got omelets, there was an order of french toast, a fritatta, breakfast burrito and eggs florentine. Everyone was happy with their food. French toast was great. Coffee was included and service was attentive. Price was very reasonable for NYC. The only negative is the space is a little cramped for larger parties, but I think its worth it.

Benjamin's is Good!
I agree with Stan. Bar is friendly with good service and crowd. Food is tasty- good location.

Not great, would go elsewhere.
Just went here tonight. Had penne with vodka sauce and chicken which was ok, but the pizza was drenched in a watery sauce which made the crust soggy, topped with grease. I would avoid the pizza. Happy dining.

Better than Sex...
Had to go with my wife to see Sex and the City, and went across the street to Benjamin Restaurant. Surprised on both counts. Liked the movie! but loved Benjamin. Quite the find. Bustling neighborhood bistro. Wait staff casual but attentive. But the food was really quite good. I had a special of Soft Shell Crabs which were yoummy. My wife had salmon that was pecan crusted with a great sauce. They were serving as a special white grape cosmos which I thought was pretty clever giving that the big movie was playing nearby. Obviously someone in charge takes great care of this little place. I will definitley be back.
