This place 10 stars if I could! We absolutely LOVE Bennett's, and a huge reason we keep coming back is Bobbi! She is truly the most amazing bartender, so warm, friendly, attentive, and genuinely makes you feel like you're coming in to see a friend. Honestly, we plan our visits around the days she's working because she makes the whole experience that special. She is hands down our favorite bartender anywhere! And if you haven't tried Bennett's Wine & Dine Monday, you are missing out! For only $60, you get two full entrées, two salads or soups, AND a full bottle of wine. It's such an incredible deal, and the food is always delicious. Great food, great atmosphere, an amazing Monday night special, and the absolute BEST bartender. Bobbi is a gem, and Bennett's is one of our very favorite places! We can't recommend it enough! read more

Our first time and probably last time here. We had happy hour in the bar area then moved to a table for our 5:30 reservation for dinner on Friday. Our three appetizers and two rounds of drinks were not charged at the happy hour price when the bill came. We didn't take time to thoroughly analyze the bill in front of our guests so... our bad I guess. The ambiance is great here, beautiful interior and not too loud for a nice evening. The service was also very good (other than the full charges for happy hour on our bill). The food was disappointing. The shrimp cocktail was more like a salsa with bay shrimp inside and tasted like blood Mary mix... not delicious. The other shrimp appetizer was fried with a heavy coating (not tempura) and was a little oily & dense served on plain shredded cabbage... it seamed wasteful to not have some sauce on the cabbage so we could eat it. We had 6 entrees and a kids Mac n cheese. All a decent value for the price but flavors were bland and at the end of the night all of us agreed that the food was not very good. read more

Pretty solid spot for lunch if you're in the area. Grabbed a few appetizers and shared a salad while catching up! The prawn were good and the tarragon sauce was great! Spinach dip was good and thick with a little kick! The homemade potato chips served along side were great. Not too salty and fresh. We shared the Steak Cobb. The dressing was light but had flavor. Def great place to grab a bite. A notch above an Applebees or Chili's without being too fancy. read more

I love me some Bennett's! This is a place where I'll bring friends, family, coworkers. I've been here for company dinners, dates, and I've also been here just for appetizers or happy hour. It is perfect for every occasion. The service is always top tier and the ambiance is very elegant and relaxing. I appreciate the wide range of options for food and everything always comes out fresh. One of my favorite things here is their house made tortillas! Highly recommend checking this place out :) read more

I really wanted to like this place better than I did. I went here with 3 friends, and all of our food was mediocre at best. I ordered a chicken dish that was pretty bad. Chicken was dry, bland and uninsired, and a very small portion. I also ordered a side of spinach that was bitter and oily. Another person ordered the short ribs, which were also a letdown, dry and overcooked. My other friend got the meatloaf, which was ok, but definitely not anything to remember. We all ordered soup and salad, and those items were good. It just seemed like the items prepared by the chef were terrible. Also, the time between courses was ridiculous. It wasn't even busy and there was over a 30 minute wait between each course. Our dinner took almost two hours! The service, while friendly, was very slow. No refills, not check backs. The restaurant was not even half full. I dont understand why salad, entree and desert takes two hours to come out. Prices were not in line with the quality of food presented. Sadly, we all agreed we'd never come back. read more

My husband and I came here for a much-needed date night to celebrate our anniversary, and it ended up being such a great experience. The atmosphere was cool, cozy, and perfect for a relaxed yet elevated dinner. I ordered the Chimichurri Steak Frites, and the steak was incredibly tender and cooked perfectly. My husband loves prime rib, so we specifically came for the weekend (Friday-Sunday dinner time) prime rib special, which definitely hit the spot for him. The food, vibe, and overall experience made this such a memorable date night. P.S. I love the happy hour options read more

I've heard about this place but this was my first time dining here. My friend and I decided on bubbles&brubch which comes with 2 brunch entrees and a bottle of champagne and 4 different fresh squeezed juice. We both decided to order short rib enchiladas&eggs, I've never ordered enchiladas in my life (because it always looks so heavy) but I wanted to try it. Ok it was actually quite delicious, it wasn't heavy on cheese and the sauce was yummy and not as heavy as I imagined and there was lots of meet in them. The only issue for me was every time I ask for "eggs over medium" it always comes out "over easy" which is the yolk is too runny and not cooked at all. I can make perfect eggs over medium and I don't understand why no restaurant is able to do it... But over all, great bubbles&brunch deal, good service, good food, good people watching fun place, I will definitely come back! read more

We'll probably be back! We came in a summer Saturday at around 2:45 PM for two. Pros: - Food was delicious. We had the Hoisin glazed ribs, salmon skewers, prime rib, Brick's chicken carrot cake. - Food was presented well - Ambiance was great (tvs too at the bar) - Prices reasonable, especially with inKind - Overall felt clean and comfortable - Friendly service Cons: - Service was a little slow. For example, my water cup stayed empty twice for a while and only got filled when I asked. But it was initially given without asking which was good. Also, waited a bit to order and to get check. - Air condition a tad bit too strong for us. It was about 96°F outside though. - Men's restroom sink with auto sensor would have water runner for at least 7 seconds after my hand was away - Brick's Chicken that has a description of half a chicken shouldn't be taken literally. It doesn't have a drumstick. When asked about it, the server and chef didn't know why. - The horseradish with the prime rib was more of the creamy variety. I would have preferred more of raw horseradish with a bite. read more

Came here with a group of six for dinner. The ambiance inside is perfect for an intimate night out. I got the Halibut which had a delicious corn sauce. So while I thought it tasted great, the halibut was undercooked, I'd say even completely raw in the center. Service was good though. read more

I loved walking into this restaurant since it was previously Bandaras. Oh, how I miss that place. We were seated outdoors on their patio area which faces Fair Oaks Blvd. They have heated lamps so it was comfortable We ate off the Happy Hour menu so this review is HH menu only. We tried the Short Rib Tacos (2) $9.00 They were really good The Hoisin glazed ribs were fall off the bone good. (4) $10.00 I could have eaten more ribs! The Carnitas street tacos looked good (2) $10.00 The Butter cake was warm and yummy! ($14.00) Definitely shareable Happy Hour is from 2-6pm everyday! The selection was good. Give this place a try if you're in the area! read more

I have not tried Bennett's since they replaced Banderas spot. I was pleasantly surprised by their Happy Hours Menu. It has a pretty good selection of food and they have Happy Hour DAILY from 2-6 pm. I have a 9-5 desk job, so I almost can never make it to Happy Hour until now! Woohoo. If you don't start off with wine or cocktails, you're not doing Happy Hour correctly! LOL. I absolutely love their Lemon Drop with house-infused lemon vodka (yum!), triple sec, fresh lemon juice, cane syrup and sugar rim. It's a bit on the sweeter side but I still like it. We enjoyed the Chicken Wings of 1.5 lbs. of drumettes, over roasted and flash fried, tossed in BBQ sauce. It is finger licking good! This is a great dish to share with a group of friends along with Garlic & Parmesan Fries. You can't go wrong with these two dishes. Another dish that I like is the Hoisin Glazed Ribs. I've also tried the Salmon Lettuce Cups and Thai Chicken Sticks, that was just okay. Nothing memorable. It was lacking flavor. At my last visit, I've tried the Maui Beet Salad and it was a bit disappointing. I didn't like the ponzu sesame ginger dressing. It tasted a little off to me. Overall, a good place to do happy hour because of the great deals. Parking can be tricky because there are employees reserved spots and 30 minute spots. Service is quick and friendly. read more

So I tried this place again and it's better. I went here with some friends and we had a great time. It's in a strip mall and the parking is tight. I usually get lucky but my friends had to park further away. I had reservations and we were seated right away. The place does get packed at times. Tonight was no different. They do have a large bar area so I think you could walk in and sit there but not for a group. I forget they have a happy hour so some of the food and drinks are cheaper. We ordered from that menu to save money. heheh. We got the chicken wings which was really large plate. I think it's 1.5 lbs. They were really worth it. Then the short rib tacos yummy. The fries were not that big but good too. Lastly the ribs. a little over done but fine. We got a few drinks. I was disappointed they didn't have my Remy Martin and the Cognac they did have was Hennessey VS , yuck. I think I got a Scotch. Had a nice visit with friends and will be back for more food options. Hope they get more liquor options to. read more

We made reservations on Mother's Day and they seated us right on time. Very nice Restaurant. Great environment plenty of staff. Menu has a lot of options to choose from so everyone can be happy. We ordered empanadas to start with and they were so hot and delicious. My wife also ordered a pizza salad which was large and fresh. I ordered a 12 ounce prime rib and it was cooked to perfection and very flavorful. It came with creamy mashed potatoes and a salad. My wife also ordered the braised short ribs, which is always one of her favorites and she enjoyed it. Our son got the Alaskan halibut and it was a good size portion and he really enjoyed the sauce that accompanied it. We finished with the butter cake, which is very good. It's a good portion so it's definitely enough for two maybe three people. Finally I can't say enough about our server Nathan. It was a busy Mother's Day that he was attentive, professional, and continued to check on us. read more

Bennetts is an excellent casual restaurant with American favorites (burgers, ribs, chops) with Mexican and Italian-inspired flavors. We came here for dinner since one menu item caught my eye and wound up dominating my review due to strong memories... They had me at Brick Chicken. Its probably my favorite preparation of chicken with its crispy skin, super soft and juicy meat, and natural chicken jus. We were hooked when Lalla Grill Monterey once served it 10 years ago, with mushrooms. Once they changed the menu, we stopped going. Montrio, also in Monterey had a bone-in Jidori version of Brick Chicken that was excellent. Anyways, Bennett's version was awesome - mostly boneless and all succulent. My 5yo som ate 80% of it and left the rest me once he saw the brown, glistening crispy skin. The rest of the dinner was also excellent. Jalapeno Cornbread is an essential starter with its crispy, spicy-sweet buttery texture that is almost dessert like. Prawns Linguine is a solid dish with a light beurre-blanc sauce. And yes, Mexican Prawns, among some of the finest, are used. We skipped dessert but I did have a spiced egg bog cocktail that came is a huge martini glass, nearly like a small vase. Our least favorite dish was the kid's macaroni - it turned out a little too soft and our son just insisted on the brick chicken. Our awesome server, Lexi even took the pasta off our bill! Definitely plan on returning next time we're in Sacramento. Brick Chicken is hard to find these days and that dish is alone for me to come back. Next time maybe we'll get two orders! read more

Came here for New Year's Eve and this place was popping. Thank goodness we made a reservation. This place was pretty loud, but the vibe was fun! The food was pretty good. We had the trio dip, devil eggs, salt and pepper shrimp and the crab cakes for appetizers. For my entrée I had the halibut. It was pretty good. Then for dessert we shared the banana pudding and the butter cake. I highly recommend saving room for the butter cake. It's so rich and delicious. It could have used more fruit and I would suggest ice cream instead of whip cream, then it would be perfection. It's enough to share with 3-5 people. I took a piece home and it was was perfect with my morning coffee. I would have given this place 5 stars, but there were a lingering fruit fly or two. But other than that, the service was great and the food was ok point! read more

Bennet's American Cooking has been open for a while and I am excited that I finally got to try it. Haven't been to this location since Bamdera was here. Walking in it seemed just the same 1980s style dark atmosphere that Bandera had... a nice feel. However, they booth seatings are definitely the same ones and they have definitely not stood up to the time that has passed. There are spots in the bench seats where your bottom sinks in and the leather is scratched off. It felt more like an Applebee's than I expected. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I just thought it was a fine dining establishment and you definitely do not need to dress up for this place. The menu is very expensive. I was super happy that there were burgers for the boys; we were going to get the happy hour burger be cause it was before 6 PM but the waitress was nice enough to tell us that it was a smaller portion, so we paid the extra four dollars and they had good burgers. The fries were some of the best fries really magnificent crunch. For our hors d'oeuvres ordered the mussels, which were delicious the deviled eggs and the beet salad. I don't think I'd order the beet salad again, but the muscles are a huge portion and I definitely would get those For our mains, we had the steak salad a Mia salad the brick chicken, the burgers and I ordered the short rib ribs. The short ribs was the most expensive and I know why the amount of meat that was served was incredible. I did not like the way it was presented and I did not really like the barbecue style sauce I like a sweeter sauce cooked in rather than a mole presentation. The mashed potatoes were Swimming and butter. I don't know that I really enjoyed those that much. The service was really attentive and the timing for the appetizers and everything was just great. The happy hour alcoholic beverages were a good deal. But all in all for the six of us with three hors d'oeuvres two alcoholic drinks and two iced teas came up to $350 with tip so not a cheap place to eat but we'd all left with some leftovers and I would definitely return. read more

We've gone to Bennet's a few times now and especially enjoy the Monday night dinner deal. Yesterday was my guy's birthday and he wanted the Monday night dinner special. We were promptly seated at a high top table (reservations strongly recommended) and greeted by our server with water. We started with a yummy calamari appetizer. I'm not sure what the dipping sauce was, but it had great flavor. The butternut squash soup came next and was perfect for a fall evening. We then moved on to dinner. I had meatloaf and mashed potatoes, which tasted fresh and homemade. My guy had the meaty pork chop and devoured it. We wrapped up our meal with the lemon creme brulee. Unfortunately, it did not impress. It was cold, almost as if straight out of the fridge and was also was a little too tangy for my liking. I guess I prefer a traditional creme brulee and should just stick with that. We had great service and a great time celebrating a birthday. We'll be back again, I'm sure. read more

I've been to Bennett's a few times after work for happy hour with coworkers, and overall it's a good spot. The drinks are consistently good, especially the lemon drops, and the happy hour appetizers are delicious. The baked brie is definitely one of our favorites. We've also ordered from the regular menu, and the food has always been very good. The only downside has been the experience at the bar. The female bartender who is usually there during happy hour never seems happy to be there. She always appears rushed, doesn't smile, and gives the impression that taking your order is an inconvenience. It definitely takes away from what could otherwise be a great happy hour experience. On a recent visit, we decided to sit at a table instead of at the bar, and the difference in service was noticeable. The table service was much friendlier, more welcoming, and made the overall experience much more enjoyable. We'll continue coming back because the food and drinks are worth it, but I do hope the bar experience becomes a little more welcoming. A friendly bartender can make a big difference, especially during happy hour. read more

We went to Bennett's for brunch and really had a great experience. The inside was very nice and we were seated quickly. The food was great... short rib omelet and eggs benedict were excellent. Food and mimosas were very good but our server Mia made it an amazing experience. She was so friendly and was a huge help when we asked for recommendations which made it so much easier for us. She checked on us regularly to see if we needed anything which was awesome. We will definitely be back and will request Mia again. read more

If you are looking for a pleasant Weekend morning brunch, give Bennet's a try. Their Espresso Martini's and Bloody Mary's are a great way to start.

This was our second time dining at Bennett's, and once again it did not disappoint. We came in for dinner with the family and were, as before, impressed by how clean, organized, and well run the restaurant is. It's clear the team takes pride in keeping things professional and welcoming. What really stands out is the service. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. Our waiter did an excellent job getting our food out quickly and making sure our entire evening went smoothly. We started with the Trio of Dips, which included house-made roasted red salsa, guacamole, and pimento cheese with house tortilla chips, along with the Bennett's Butcher Board, which had a great mix of charcuterie, artisan cheeses, house-marinated olives, and mixed nuts. Both were fantastic. For dinner, I ordered the Prawn Linguine, my wife had the Steak Cobb salad, and our son chose the kids chicken and fries. Everything was fresh, well presented, and delicious. A nice touch was the manager stopping by during our meal to check in and make sure we were enjoying everything. It shows they genuinely care about the customer experience. As we were getting ready to leave, the place was starting to fill up, which didn't surprise me. This is clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. We'll definitely keep coming back. We really appreciate the great food and consistently excellent service. read more

I was surprised with an early Mother's Day brunch here. First time here and it didn't disappoint. We shared the Dungeness crab omelets and the Quiche accompanied by a Bloody Mary and an espresso martini. Everything was great. So feeling and the layers of flavor of everything were fantastic. So good I didn't even think about pictures. If there is a special occasion I would def think of here. They even have a happy hour from 2-6 with 32 items. The waitress Sadia was exceptional attentive with our littles and us. There is glass between the booths to keep it low key personal without the invasion of others enjoyment. Has a great size bar and very friendly staff. The patio is small and quaint and perfect for brunch on a fair weather day. read more

Bennett's always hits the spot and their terrific menu has something to please nearly anyone. Parking is convenient to find in their large parking lot. While I'd be a liar if I said I'm still bummed that our favorite restaurant Bandera no longer has a Sacramento location and presence, Bennett's has done a terrific job with their beautiful and fantastic location. The staff is always engaging, friendly, hard working, kind, and knowledgeable. I ate solo during my last visit and opted for their USDA Prime New York steak, bacon mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes. They brought out several gorgeous steaks for me to choose from. I was hungry so I opted for a big boy and it didn't disappoint. It had beautiful marbling, was tender for a New York (they're typically a bit firmer) and was cooked absolutely perfectly. I ordered medium rare and it was spot on. It was served sliced and was delightful. It's served on a wooden cutting board like plank that has grooves to catch the juices from the steak. That is ingenious and a lovely touch. The bacon mac and cheese was arguably the best I've ever had. A touch of panko breadcrumbs would've made it absolutely perfect. The mashed potatoes were buttery and creamy like I like, and had a touch of scallions which I love. This was the most enjoyable dining experience and meal. Not only does Bennett's serve fabulous meals in a lovely setting, their desserts never disappoint. I skipped one this evening but my favorite is their carrot cake. Another wonderful reason to dine here is they're wonderful stewards of the community and regularly make generous donations to local non profit organizations. I love doing business with folks that are generous and kind enough to give back when they can. Obviously it's impossible to give back to any and everyone, but a little generosity and human kindness goes a long ways in my book. Thank you again for another wonderful experience and I look forward to stopping in again soon. read more

My family and I came here for Mother's Day brunch! We had reservations and got seated quickly. The only space they had available to sit 10 people was in a glass room that didn't have AC.

My friends and I visited Bennett's for our holiday brunch celebration, with a reservation for the private room at 10 AM. Booking was smooth with no issues, and our server was wonderful -- kind, attentive, and doing her best despite everything going on. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience reminded me why Bennett's just isn't for me, even though my friends have enjoyed it in the past. We started by ordering coffee but were brought water instead. When the coffee finally came, it was lukewarm and watery -- not a great start. We also ordered two jalapeño cornbreads, which no longer come in the cast-iron skillet. The cornbread arrived cold and pretty bland. For entrees, two of us split the Corned Beef Hash and the Omelette. Another friend ordered the French Dip, someone else ordered the Stuffed French Toast (gluten-free), and another friend got a kids' breakfast. Unfortunately, the gluten-free stuffed option wasn't available since the stuffing is pre-made, but they were able to make her a regular gluten-free French toast, which she said was decent. When the food came out, almost all of the dishes were cold -- except for the French Dip, which my friend said was hot and flavorful. Both the omelette and corned beef hash were completely cold and very bland, and we had to add quite a bit of salt and hot sauce just to give them some taste. Another friend had to send her dish back to be reheated because it arrived cold as well. We decided to try one last item before leaving -- the Meyer Lemon Crème Brûlée. We're all big lovers of crème brûlée and lemon, but as soon as it reached the table, we could tell something was off. It was jiggly, watery, and missing the caramelized sugar top entirely. One bite confirmed it: it tasted like warm, unset pudding. Our server even mentioned she told the cook it wasn't set, but it was served anyway. For the price point, the overall experience just doesn't match the cost -- even with some gluten-free options available. While I truly appreciated our server and the company of friends, I can't recommend Bennett's based on this visit. read more

The food was amazing. I would rate it a strong 8/10. We ordered quite a few dishes. The Dungeness crab deviled eggs, Raw Oysters, Short rib, Tortilla soup, Ribeye, NY strip, Spinach Dip, Steam Mussels, Lasagna, and Kids meal of chicken tenders and fries. (Huge portion) Portions here are very generous so keep that in mind. We were a party of 9, so we were sharing all these dishes. Everything was cooked to perfection. Our server Sarah was exceptional. She was very attentive to our party, and went above and beyond to deliver great service to all of us. We did take a toddler here and a child and she was great with them. Bairon, our Buss-boy we believe was great as well. He helped clean my toddlers mess and was very understanding and noble. Great guy. Environment here was clean. I loved the low lights. They have a ramp for wheelchair accessibility which was important to us, as we had a handicap guest. Restrooms were clean as well. Ambiance was calm, reserved. Overall our experience here was great. We celebrated my birthday and enjoyed amazing food with amazing service. I would definitely recommend anyone to come here with family or friends. read more

This is one of my go-to restaurants and I wanted to try their cannelloni this evening. One of my fav sides is their cauliflower gratin. When I ate my cannelloni take-out dinner, I realized I didn't have the focaccia that comes with this entree, so I called the restaurant and we planned for me to pick up the focaccia. Upon my arrival, the team members communicated with each other and the fresh baked focaccia came out promptly. Not only did they take care of the bread, they went above and beyond with customer service and offered me a free dessert and the staff member assisting me recommended and convinced me with a delicious description, to choose the popular butter cake! Margaux is an outstanding manager and took care of my gift card and answered my questions. Susan Bennett has taken good care of us also in the past, and my family was very impressed with their service and food and enjoyed connecting with her when she visited our table to check on us. Clearly, their family puts their heart into their business and customers! This is why I am not surprised their team provides superb food and customer service! Their ambiance is perfect for a date night, a party, and for families. I love their outdoor dining option too, which is where friends and I like to enjoy happy hour. Here's to another delicious experience with excellent service! Bennetts for breakfast, lunch, happy hour, and dinner, all get my vote, because I have only had quality food and been treated so well with my friends and family here. read more

Classy, upscale American fare. We were seated for our reservation right away. They have a decently large menu, however, I tried their steak frites in my first visit and have ordered it as my main each time since! The cocktails are good. The speed of the bar has varied each time. They were a bit slow on a busy Friday night. We enjoyed all the food except my friend was not a fan of their garlic Parmesan bread. The butter cake is so delicious. Highly recommend it for dessert. It is a big portion, so it's great for sharing! read more
