    Mediterranean quiche with grilled cranberry bread.
    Sheila L.

    While driving around trying to find a local spot, we came across Benedicts which has been in business for 30 years. I ordered the Mediterranean quiche without the bread. The waitress made it a point to come back and ask if I really didn't want it. Clearly, we needed to take it. Hubby chose the cranberry and really enjoyed it. The restaurant is typical older cafe style and does need some updating. The servers were super attentive and friendly. Would very much recommend.

    Philly Cheese Steak Omelette - $13.99
    Barry S.

    The men's group at our church has started coming to Benedict's for a few months, switching from a local place we've gone to for a few years. I was disappointed we were switching, but now I know why! I can't speak for their lunch or dinner, but the breakfast menu and food is DELICIOUS! Not only that, but the portions are huge, it came out hot and fast, and our server Amaya was sweet and took really good care of us! I got the Philly Cheesesteak omelette special, which came with home fries (chopped red potatoes) and your choice of toast or English muffin. Again, it was HUGE and the serving of hash browns was piled high. The omelette itself was full of the steak and sliced mushrooms, peppers and onions, and just the right amount of cheese. One of the other guys next to me got a half-order of biscuits and gravy, and the guy across from him got the full order. The half order would've been too much for me, but the full order filled an entire large plate. Someone else at the table got a side of the pumpkin pancakes (seasonal and a $3 up charge I believe), and it was a short stake of the biggest pancakes I've ever seen. He said they were delicious and commented he was at First Watch last week and they wanted to charge him $8 for a pancake on the side. Definitely looking forward to next month's breakfast together and my return to Benedict's! Y'all have a new customer!

    Stopped in for lunch yesterday with da main Cuz, we had a nice talk with Isabella, who took care of us, she's a fellow Jerseyite. I ordered a cup of a very interesting soup named Chunky Deli when da Cuz tried it ,she had to order some too. The soup had brisket, cabbage, carrots, potatoes, and a hint of vinegar... I'd come back for the soup, but the rest of the food not so much, I ordered a cheesesteak which was so so, Cuz ordered a grilled cheese, and it was barely melted...Like some of the other Yelpers mentioned, Isabella is a cool server...

    Nothing really stood out to me...Blueberry pancakes had a ton of blueberries in them if that's what you like...The pancakes were tasty...As far as I know only fake syrup available...Waitress didn't know what brand of OJ they used.

    Basic breakfast- eggs, home fries (only option) crispy (burnt) bacon!

    First time visit ~ Disappointed Large enough place, decor is sad but functional. Service was sub par, waited on food 20+minutes, food came out cold and missing items. Prices are much higher than the quality of food would demand. Won't be a second visit.

    "Whoa, hot and fresh breakfast!"
    Joseph G.

    We had a great breakfast today for our first visit. We were very pleased with the quality of the food. Our food was served hot and fresh and the portions were generous. No cold breakfast meals here (yes, we have been served cold breakfast meals at four different breakfast/lunch places in Pinellas County). The servers are fast and attentive. Lots of booths too which we prefer. We will be back!

    In the area and because of the reviews we wanted to stop for brunch. Had to watch for it because it's right on the front corner of a strip mall and almost missed it. We were seated immediately. Not real busy at 11:00 AM. Menus brought and drink orders taken and quickly brought. Since we just came from Weight Watcher meeting we were looking for low points foods. Now ordinarily I would probably have picked a country fried steak or biscuits and gravy, but wayyy too many points! My wife ordered the Western Omelette, as usual, with fresh fruit and whole wheat toast. Following her example I ordered the Mediterranean Omelette with spinach, tomatoes, onions and feta cheese. It was fantastic and huge. Tons of spinach and other ingredients. My wife's omelette was also great. The fruit cup that came with it was very good. Strawberries, grapes and pineapple was fresh and delicious. However, the melon chunks were too firm and not ripe. Overall a great dining experience, great (and very pleasant) service by Angela just added to it.

    we originally went here soon after they opened and had an absolutely ridiculously bad time and left…read morea review for them. To be fair, we were told by the manager to call, give them another chance to make it right etc. However, we didn't call and only gave them a second chance this morning with friends. The reason I didn't call to "make it right" was I want the experience I have at a restaurant to be organic, and not get special or specialized treatment because we made a complaint. Now, on to our adventure today. We (a party of 4) arrived around 1020ish and were seated pretty quickly. The restaurant was pretty full, which was expected as it was a Sunday morning. The lady who seated us (not our waitress...tall with long dark hair) was very friendly, chatty, and funny. We appreciated her service. Our waitress was quite inattentive. We each got a cup of coffee, along with waters, iced tea, etc. Once we got our drinks and the orders were placed, we didn't see the waitress again until after the food was delivered (i.e., a very, very long time). The tall dark-haired lady finally came around and refilled our coffee/tea/water after they had all sat empty for 10+ minutes. The wait for the food was so, so, so long. We waited close to 45+ minutes for our food (nothing special, nothing fancy, straight up off the menu, no changes or alterations). This has not improved since the last time we were there and it is just baffling to me that it takes so long to get food out. The biscuits and gravy were enjoyed enjoyed, however 2 of the 4 biscuits were so hard she could not cut them with the fork, and with very very great difficulty with the knife. The tops of the biscuits were soft and pillowy but the bottom were pucks. This time the eggs seemed to have been cooked properly My husband was not happy with the omelette he got, and they took that off the bill without us asking. She did mention that she could have another order put in for him but (and these are her words), "It would take about 15 hours for you to get your new plate of food." We declined a new order and thanked her for taking it off the check. I got a sandwich and it was fine, nothing special but also not awful. Our other friend got a full breakfast platter which he enjoyed. He said the pancakes were very fluffy. So, in this updated review, I have increased the stars for the food because it wasn't *as* awful as last time, but still problematic. The worst thing, which was an issue with our first visit, is the wait time for food. It is just too. dang. long. I look at a place like Lennys, where we would have been in, seated and eating by the time we got our first coffee refill (also much too long in a breakfast place.....just....have coffee ready??). We did note when we walked in there were only 3 servers for the dining room --- perhaps they were short staffed which is why we only saw our server 4 times --- once for drinks, once to take food orders, and once to check on food, and once to drop the check. It was the lady who seated us who had a great rapport with the table, who was cheerful and friendly who can take credit for the two stars in ambience. In the end, we gave them another shot. No one at the table was impressed. The kitchen is woefully slow. The service was inattentive. we will not be coming back.

    Second time here and we were the only customers lest one person in the back! That doesn't…read morenecessarily bode so well with the huge senior living development up the road. When we walked in, we were quickly greeted. Place is still bright, clean and cheery. Interesting soundscapes type music piped in also. We were told we could sit anyplace as we entered. We did and sat at a booth with a very wobbly table. A moment or two later when Ginger took our order, she replied that "we were tryin' to fix that table yesterday but we didn't have a shim." M next time a word about not having us sit there would be a welcome gesture on their part rather than letting us move all our stuff to the next table. Anyway...coffee was kinda weak too. I usually don't bother with diner coffee as it's usually hit or miss. This stuff was the latter by far. Meanwhile we got the former with our food! Queen Bee chose a daily special: one egg, two pieces of French toast and two strips of bacon. I chose the country fried steak breakfast. Queen Bee's choice made her quite the happy camper. French toast she found quite delicious; well cooked rather than goopy or runny with a nice crisp to it. The egg was perfect over medium as asked. She even told Ginger what an over medium egg constitutes. Ginger replied "I gotcha honey" with a southern laugh. My breakfast meantime was quite lovely for the most part. Country fried steak was a standard Sysco truck frozen block of breaded, minced meat. It was properly cooked (as opposed to incinerated) and not greasy. The standout for this was/is the "country gravy." Country gravy oftentimes suffers from one of two problems... 1. Over salty from too much sausage and sausage grease. 2. Floury aftertaste because the cook can't make a proper béchamel. This stuff had neither problem and was one of the better country gravies I've had in recent memory if not ever. Meanwhile eggs were scrambled properly...not too loose, not too tight (more toward the latter than the former). The home fries were quite bland (no salt, no pepper or even a hint of paprika). I wonder if too many of the old folks living round here complained about 'em. Anyway, I added a shake of salt (gasp!) and some pepper. I chose rye toast as I usually do. When Ginger dropped off our chow I even asked if it was rye instead of whole wheat. She said yes with a smile, adding the only way she can tell 'em apart is by "looking for the seeds. Ya gotta be smarter than what ya work with." Finally, Ginger herself is a real hoot. She truly reminds me of a southern version of the NYC diner waitresses I remember from my younger years and decades in the Big Apple. Sassy, funny, and quite efficient, competent and knowledgeable. After we walked in, we weren't so sure about whether we'd return here ever again. However given the balance of today's experience, I'd say that when we find ourselves in the area and in need of a feed...Pete seems to have done well with this joint and I'd say his morning crew knows their stuff!
