    Western Omelette with Rye Toast and Hash Browns
    Linda I.

    Excellent hangover breakfast delivery... ordered this morning for delivery via UberEats. Got the Western Omelette which comes with a side of toast and jam and choice of hash browns or grits. I got the former. Hearty and really just does the job. Omelette was packed with the fillings (did not skimp). Was a little overdone/gummy but good flavor. Hash browns were good. Only other comment is it would be great to have more jam and ketchup for the toast and hash browns.

    Egg and cheese sandwich
    Keith F.

    This was a great breakfast! The service was friendly and made me feel like it was a genuine home cooked meal. Our server was really good and I'm bummed I didn't catch her name. We ordered a bunch of food. The egg sandwich came out first. The bread was perfectly toasted. The egg and cheese were also cooked just right. I would definitely order this again. It wasn't complicated but it was delicious. The coffee cup stayed full of a house brew that was fantastic. The creamer was on the table in those small mini containers. The omelette came next. It was decent sized and loaded with feta cheese and spinach. The hash browns ordered extra crispy came out just as ordered. This is the flavor profile I often order and this version really stacked up. I would certainly come back to this restaurant for breakfast. Highly recommended

    Half order biscuits & gravy and 2 scrambled eggs. Full up!!!

    Great place for breakfast, brunch and lunch too! Great waitstaff. Today a tenured staff training a new-bee! Excellent service. Prices very reasonable for freshly made food. Very upbeat , comfortable place! Only here once before with my sister and her family years ago. It's really nice some things don't change. If you're in Ann Arbor Michigan area stop on by for some great eats!

    Quality food, fast service, not crazy costs. It's a cute diner, and I like how it's off campus. Might be my new place!

    Spinach Omelette, chili fries, coleslaw, fish
    Katarina B.

    Benny's is an old school family diner located in Ann Arbor, very close to the U of M. This was a solid 4/5 star experience for an afternoon lunch with great food and service. I ordered the fish and chips and modified the fries to come with chili. The cod fish was well cooked and perfectly crispy, perhaps a bit too greasy but that's to be expected of a joint like this. It's exactly what I wanted after a long day of exploring the campus for hours in the hot sun. The fries themselves were great and thick enough to sustain the chili without becoming soggy or falling apart. The chili was standard, again nothing crazy to write home about, but delicious nonetheless. The slaw was refreshing with just enough mayo. I also tried a bite of the spinach omelette which was flavorful and packed a good punch with the feta in my bite. 4/5 for food. 5/5 for customer service. 4/5 for ambiance. This is a great place for a quick, casual bite. It's nothing fancy, very homey and reliable for a warm plate of comfort food.

    Corned beef hash with 2 over medium eggs and hash browns
    Grace C.

    I got to try this place out for Sunday brunch, and they were super packed! My party had to wait around 20 minutes to be seated, which was perfectly fine since they were so busy. I ordered the corned beef hash with two over medium eggs and hash browns (this came with toast + jam) and a half order of chocolate chip pancakes. The food came out exceptionally fast despite Benny's being super packed. The corned beef hash and hash browns was good--just super classic. Their toast is not as crispy and toasty as other toasts I've tried at other diners. The chocolate chip pancakes were a little dry; I had to drench them in maple syrup to get them down my throat. My friend got their steak and eggs, and he said the steak wasn't fresh at all. I also saw that there were parts of the steak that were severely undercooked. I'm guessing people don't order that dish often, so they don't always have fresh steak. Overall, the food is average and like any other diner. Benny's service is super good though! Despite being super busy, our waitress was always easy to flag down, and she checked in on us multiple times throughout the meal to see how we were doing. Overall, Benny's food is comparable to any other diner in the area, but their service is what sets them apart.

    Western omelette
    Alexa T.

    My best friend and I always come here for breakfast/brunch. It's been our little spot. We always get the western omelette with extra crispy hash browns. The portions are generous and there's always leftovers to take home. The servers are such hard workers! However, the owner was not the friendliest when he was ringing us up....

    the bug we found in our food :-)
    Kyra W.

    I have been to this establishment a few times in the past, this was a staple for many high school afternoons and off campus lunches. Yesterday, my partner and I decided that we wanted to get some Bennys for my birthday breakfast. We got what we were anticipating to be an amazing breakfast until a few bites in we see a bug in one on the omelettes. We found a dead bug in an omelette. Being that this was supposed to be a birthday breakfast, I was quite irritated but was trying to be kind about the situation. My partner called Benny's to tell them we found a bug in our food, the service worker seemed to not think it was a big deal. She then proceeded to tell my partner the kitchen was closed and that there was nothing more to do until tomorrow. Mind you, this is at 2:20. On the establishment door, it says they are open including the kitchen until 3:30pm. We decide to drive up to Benny's, yet again. Once we got there, it seemed as if the service worker and cook were suggesting that the bug did not come from their establishment. She then proceeded to ask my partner 'what kind of bug is this?' as if we were supposed to be bug experts. They then proceeded to try to refund us only for one of the food items purchased and suggested that we should keep the other food. We lost our appetite and trust for this place. Needless to say, my birthday breakfast was absolutely disgusting. I will not be returning to Benny's. This was absolutely ridiculous and horrifying.

    I love a good salad, so I was excited to finally check out sweetgreen while in Ann Arbor recently…read more Nate and I chose this location for its proximity to another spot we wanted to visit (York) as well as its available parking lot vs. the downtown location. I had browsed the menu a bit beforehand, and decided I wanted the caramelized garlic steak protein plate. They also have bowls (greens + grains base) and salads. Unfortunately they were all out of the steak and it was going to be a 10 minute wait, and they were also out of the roasted sweet potatoes so I ended up kind of building my own bowl with mixed greens, rice, blackened chicken, tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, and pesto vinaigrette. I liked that they mixed up the bowl for me since it can be tough to mix in those small to-go containers. They also asked if I wanted light, regular, or heavy dressing - I said regular, but would probably go light next time. We also got a piece of bread on the side. They have a designated outdoor seating area by the parking lot, which was great for the nice day. I loved my bowl and everything was super fresh and very flavorful. It was also a huge portion! We definitely could have split one bowl. I will say that it was super salty. Nate liked his shroomami bowl even though we both thought the kale could have been massaged a bit to make it softer. I'm hoping sweetgreen will expand to Grand Rapids - we do have CoreLife but I'd love to have this option too!

My biggest issue was with their food was their flavors and seasoning. Everything here was bland and under seasoned... I guess the place is more for health nuts than average joe. The noodle dishes were beyond disappointing. Needs major work and overhaul in the flavor department. Poke - DO NOT get it with the sushi rice. Their sushi rice is very mushy and does injustice to the dish. Instead get it with regular white rice. miso soup - should be called green onion soup with the amount of the sliced green onions in the dish. Didn't have much of miso flavor either. Overall, walked away disappointed, most likely won't be back. However, the staff members were welcoming and friendly. The dining area was large and open, few high tables close to the kitchen.

    Great Brunch, good Lunch, but menu could use more variety!…read more Savas is an adorable restaurant with a really welcoming atmosphere; the space is cute, the environment is lovely, and the staff is genuinely amazing every single time. My first visit was for brunch, and it completely won me over. The buffet had a wonderful variety of food, the mimosas and cocktails were delicious, and for the quality, variety, and service you get, the price point is very fair. I left thoroughly impressed. I came back for lunch excited to experience it again, and while the staff was just as warm and the environment just as great, however, this time the lunch menu didn't quite live up to my expectations. They offer salads, sandwiches, mac and cheese and similar American-style comfort food, which is totally fine, but for a restaurant of this caliber I was hoping for something a little more exciting. I ended up ordering a salad with added shrimp, which was absolutely delicious, and a pomegranate rosemary lemonade that was incredibly refreshing - perfect for a summer day-. But if you're not in the mood for sandwiches, salads, or mac and cheese, your options are pretty limited. My suggestion: keep doing everything you're doing because the hospitality and atmosphere are truly special, but consider expanding the lunch and dinner menu for those looking for a heartier or more diverse meal.

If I had gotten my full order it probably would have been a 5 star meal. I had the Dearborn sandwich which was basically a chicken shawarma, dark chicken meat with garlic paste and pickles. It was GREAT. I added extra protein so it was stacked. Their garlic paste (toum) was also awesome. My husband was away at a conference so I could get freaky with the garlic and ordered an extra side of it to dip my fries in it, too. Alas, no fries so I dipped my sandwich right into it instead. It was POTENT and delicious! Just how I like it. I also ordered a small hummus and pita chips. It was a pretty generous serving for small and was excellent. Nice and smooth and the pita chips were so good! I ran out of pita chips so I'd add an extra side of those next time. So yes, there will be a next time, because it was really good, but I'll be sure to ask my delivery person to double check that everything is in the bag next time.
