Loved our meal and our server Julie was amazing!! Food was so good and moderately priced. Great atmosphere

First I pick up the fork and knife wrapped in the napkin and the fork was full of dried food on it. The they brought out my burger and the fries were sweet potato fries and I didn't order them then they brought out my girls wrap and it was cold and her fries were cold as well. Good luck if you go there I'm not going back. They tried to buy us off with a piece of chocolate cake for the inconvenience. read more

Quick service, comfort food, best chicken noodle Soup. Relaxed and low key ambiance. No frills home cooking. read more

You want to go to here. Julie is my favorite server ever all time. I will be back soon 5 stars!

On Sundays in Decatur Illinois, there's probably no place better to come to Benny's bar and Grill. They have the most amazing buffet for brunch with omelettes to order carved ham carved prime rib, and a beautiful buffet always the best. read more

WARNING I love this place buuut On St. Patrick's Day I learned in fighting a dispute with another transaction, not at Benny's that whilst I sat at the bar, the longtime Bartender used my Debit card to pay for a bill over One hundred dollars. Not cool. I'm disputing it. I will never return. read more

I'm not sure if this is always a buffet diner or if that's just on Sunday. We were there on a Sunday and the food was first rate. In addition to the buffet, the had an omelette and crepe bar. Servers were very friendly, refilling glasses and removing used dishes. The place was filled with a post church service crowd who all seemed to know each other but were very friendly. read more

All the good is great, love their Breaded Cod sandwich, fresh and delicious , also has a fully stocked bar, nice place for a cocktail with friends . read more

Are food was served in a timely order and the food was hot. Are waitresses was amazing . We will certainly be back!

This is a local bar and restaurant that sort of feels like a chain restaurant. Thankfully, the food and service are that of a local place. During my visit at lunchtime, the parking lot was packed, and I was able to snag one of the last 2 spots. I decided to sit at the bar area. After looking at the menu, which had a lot of options, I was set on a burger since I saw a sign that indicates their burger uses fresh ground chuck and they pair that with hand cut fries. I chose the bacon avocado burger with cheese (cheddar). To make things even more enticing, they also give you a free cup of soup with your burger order. The burger is made to order and cooked to your liking. I chose medium rare, and it came out minutes later cooked perfectly. This burger really hit the spot and is a full 1/2 pound. The fries are just as great, and I was able to eat most of them. I'm not a big soup person, but the cheese soup seemed fairly consistent with what a cheese soup would taste like. I had never had this type of soup before. No complaints at all about the meal. Service was just as excellent, and their restrooms were clean as well. read more

One of the few places I've found that can properly cook a burger to medium rare! I try to stop whenever I'm in Decatur. Service is better some days than others but overall good home cooking, comfortable atmosphere, and gotta love the popcorn and cup of soup with every meal. :) read more

The people are great but the food is generally just ok. My mother-in-law and husband's boss love it so maybe it's just me and my husband. Their Sunday brunch is pretty good though. read more

When in this afternoon for some carryout I got an order of potato scans and order a quesadilla and decided I would splurge and get some buffalo wings mild mild mild I told her they are I just went to eat one they're so hot even blue cheese my nose is running I can't do it shame on them spend $40 and you can't even eat it but the quesadillas were good and so we're the skins read more

Came with my family, service was bad. We had at least 3 different people talk to us and only saw our main waitress once or twice. Our food took about 45 minutes and when it came out it was cold and sloppy. The fries were burnt and brittle, my pasta came with no chicken and had barely any taste to it. We also ordered a bacon cheeseburger which came with no bacon.. veggies were not fresh, browning, and tasteless. read more

Stopped for lunch today while passing through Decatur. My husband had the original hamburger. He loved it and described it as a super flavorful hand pressed burger. I had the reuben sandwich, it was fabulous they roast their own corned beef. Super delicious! But my absolute favorite and may cause me to detour to come back was the homemade cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries. OMG just heavenly!! Lastly. The service was outstanding!!! Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. read more

Great food, local service and wonderful owner! If you want a meal of great portions and quality- go see Benny for Sunday Brunch or anytime!

This was not a pleasurable experience and we won't return there. I feel like the staff is not used to servicing everyone.

Benny's Grill welcomes you with open arms and a great smile. I saw that they served Penne Alla Vodka and since I recently had made some back home I wanted to compare flavors and I have to say the pasta tastes amazing! The smooth creamy flavor mixed with the vodka is phenomenal. The atmosphere is very pleasant and peaceful. I had the fried calamari as an appetizer and I got much more than I was expecting coming from Miami. If you're ever in Decatur, I highly recommend this place. read more

We were driving through Decatur on a long trip & were tired, hungry, & sick of fast food. Benny's Grill had very good food for carry out as well as excellent customer service! The food took maybe 20-25 mins, tops, on a Sunday night? Salmon with dill sauce, sweet potato fries, fried mushrooms, homemade-every-day chicken noodle soup, & chicken Caesar salad were all wins--our 6yo LOVED the soup & roll they gave him to go with it. And he is a selective eater! I give the restaurant 4/5 stars only because the menu was tough to read on my phone based on how it was displayed. Also, the green beans that came with my salmon were overcooked for me. Even though food is waaayyy better when it's not eaten as takeout in the car, this was darn good & worth eating as carry out over other restaurant options! That means a lot during travel with kids and the COVID pandemic. On top of it all, the restaurant staff were really helpful when we thought my husband left his wallet behind (we found it--phew!). We will definitely eat here again. read more

They have the best burgers in town! We enjoy coming here as the servers are great! A great place to meet friends for a delicious meal. read more

Had the Philly Cheesesteak. Sandwich was good. Service was prompt and friendly. Ambiance was good, and appeared clean.

A step above normal bar food, but I'm surprised at the ratings from other Yelpers for this place. Neither food nor service struck me as special. read more

Amazing food, really clean restaurant, and while the staff is really great and did their best, they were seriously short handed all round and it showed. I look forward to trying them again when they get back up to speed. read more

it was probably one of the best foods i have had in a while thank you for the food. The service was amazing. And even the place was clean.

Driving home I have seen the place and looked nice. I have now gone there several times and I can say it is an excellent place The place is clean, nice parking area and the wait staff has an excellent demeanor towards the guest. Many of the customers are apparently repeating, since they know the wait staff. The food I ordered once for take out and another time dine in, was prepared correctly, tasted excellent and was quite fast, also the portions are larger than what I could eat. read more

Good food great service and very friendly wait staff. Everything is very good and I love the food

I wish we lived closer to Benny's. Better yet, forget fast food, save the money and time to go here. Even though burgers are their jam, I enjoy a well made salmon salad every now and then. read more

Great food, fantastic service, always consistent and an amazing brunch! Newly remolded and a very pleasing environment.

Staff is really nice and lots of options for brunch. They have someone to make omelets and crepes and he will do it anyway you prefer/like. I prefer their breakfast over their lunch choices but, that's just me :) read more

Happened on this place by chance. Great burgers, great service, and relaxed atmosphere. We will be back!

Delicious! Thursday special was Italian trio. Spaghetti, ravioli and lasagna. 3 thumbs up!

Great food Great Service. The owners are very nice people as are the servers. Great family atmosphere!

Benny it is always nice to see you when we make our way back to Decatur! The prim rib and cheese cake was awesome! read more

We just moved back to the area and want to support all the local spots. Benny's offers a really nice menu with a variety of delicious choices. We decided to have the burgers and they didn't disappoint! The fries were also great and the service was exceptional. This was our first time trying this restaurant and we can definitely see why it would be a local favorite. Chains have their place-- but why not support a local entrepreneur, especially when it's this good! read more

Honestly if you've never been or question whether to go....don't. Benny's is one of the best places to eat in Decatur. Their burgers are always cooked to perfection. My favorite would probably be the spicy burger. It's not too spicy - just enough to give it a nice kick. If you're looking for a hefty sandwich, try the Fatty Melt (pictured). It's pretty tasty! If you're there on Sunday, I suggest the brunch buffet. Everything is delicious, especially the pasta! We went for Easter brunch and I had some of the best fried chicken I had had in awhile. They also had lamb for Easter that was equally as delicious. read more

Usually decent. Have had burgers cooked way over before too though. Average American fare. When cooked properly, very tasty. Nothing special. read more

Great food. Hamburgers are best in town. Love their soup! Service is friendly and quick. A great place for any meal or to go with friends. Sunday brunch is wonderful!! read more

Tina was our server last Saturday and she was awesome! Thanks for the attentive and friendly service, Tina. We'll be back!

To our rude waitress, Cheyenne: if you hate your job so much, find a new one. To owners/management: find some friendly waitresses. Restaurants want positive reviews and return customer's yet they can't even find a staff that is professional and wanting to provide a pleasurable dining experience. The place was NOT clean. Dirty tables/floors, unattentive staff and subpar food. Definitely won't be back! read more

Amazing chicken tenders. Really good beer battered cod. My family all enjoyed their meals as well ranging from a burger to chicken Marsala. Plan to revisit when in town. Support small business when possible read more
