    Looking for that special 50's diner style flair paired with some of the best food the American…read morecuisine has to offer ? Look no further as Benjamin's American diner in Mannheim has got it all! Situated right near the B38 in Gorxheimer Str. this diner style restaurant was modeled after the interior of a 50's train car. Seasonally matched American evergreens welcome you when you enter Benjamin's and are greated in English by one of the staff members. Seating is quite comfy and casual just like you would imagine it. Red leather benches mix with heavy wooden tables. Inside you can also find a large bar where you can enjoy drinks you would otherwise only find in the U.S.: Dr. Pepper, Welch's, A&W Just to name a few. The menu is quite short the selection however is great! Whether you're looking for a burger with fries (best one's you can get around here), a nice New York Sirloin Strip steak with A1 steak sauce and homefries, a nice summer salad with caesar's chicken on top, or baked potatoes filled with sour cream, you'll find it here. Desserts are highly recommended, above all the Sundae Brownie. Extremely recommended is the lunch special where you can get a burger of your choice with french fries for just 4,90 EUR. Pricing's alright, given the fast food character of the dishes though it could be a tad cheaper. Regularly the diner hosts special events such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Super Bowl buffets where you can find seasonal specialities. Reservations are an absolute must here though. The place itself is divided in up- and downstairs whereas the first one usually is only used if the latter one is fully booked or during one of the a.m. One of the few negative aspects of Benjamin's American Diner are its bathrooms. They certainly should hire somebody to fix the everlasting bad smell that has been coming out of the urinals for the last 3-4 years now. Other than that this place is an awesome choice for weekend lunch with the family or just for getting quick lunch during weekdays. I've been coming here for the past 6-7 years now and certainly count Benjamin's as one of my regular places to go.

    Benjamin's has the best ribs and spicy chicken wings in Mannheim. Check out the 'all-you-can' eat…read morespecials. You will always find a warm and friendly American smile from the staff. My husband surprised me with takeout from Benjamin's on Thanksgiving day 2008. I was a bit reluctant to taste American-style food from a German restaurant but much to my amazement it was quite delicious. That really hit the nail on the head with the stuffing - it was delicious. I was only missing the mac 'n cheese, maybe next year they'll surprise me with it.

I had the Chateaubriand and a baked potato with herbed butter, cheddar and sour cream. WOW, the most tender and flavorful I've ever had, the blend of the herbed butter, sour cream and cheddar on the potato was stunning. My wife had the crispy sea bass with garlic truffle mashed potato's. The fish was perfectly cooked. It was nice and crispy, delicious flavor, mild and a little natural saltiness from the skin. The potato's were heavenly, so much flavor and silky smooth. Wine recommendations from our server were perfect. We finished dinner with cheesecake and apricot Scnapps. Highly recommend if you are in the area and a carnivore like me.

The service was impeccable. Fine dining, first class service. I can't say enough good things! I got the filet and my husband got the Argentinean tenderloin. I added prawns to my filet. We also got truffle fries and grilled veggies. We each added sauces, but I can't remember which ones. Everything was amazing and we washed it down with a Margaux. It was perfection! I know we had dessert but it's escaping me. Anyway. Super amazing. Cannot recommend enough.

The staff is so kind, with smiles all around. The food, however, varies quite dramatically. The first thing to note is that the prices aren't too bad. You can get your fill for under €10 here. Their burgers and fries are delicious. The burgers especially are quite large. Their steaks are pretty disappointing, though. I asked for mine to be medium rare and it came out well done. The fat wasn't marbled and was just in one strip, even though I had ordered the ribeye (this was likely not a ribeye). The salad that I ordered was heavily DRENCHED in dressing and cheese, and there was little variety of greens and other assortments in it. My friend had ordered the Mac-and-cheese, and it was hands down the worst we've ever had. It looked very liquid-y, much closer to a soup, which initially we assumed was cream and cheese, but upon eating it, we figured out it was actually WATERY. Germans apparently don't know how to make Mac-and-cheese. I've had better $1 instant mac-and-cheeses. The waitress, though, noticed we didn't like it and ended up not charging us for it. Seriously, cannot stress how kind the wait staff is. I'd still definitely come back. Though the food varies and can be mediocre, it's often pretty good, and the experience is well worth it.
