There peanut butter burger is so good. I didn't like fries but sandwich was awesome .

After spending several weeks in Decatur and eating out twice a day, this is the only place that didn't screw up my order. Chili was spicy. Salad was legit. Lots of variety on the menu for those with food allergies. read more

We were passing through town and were in need of food without driving 30 more miles. The food was good, the person at the door was very friendly, but our waitress seemed to be having a bad day. All in all it was a 4 because of the waitress, but the food we ordered (burger, clam chowder, and salad) was at least 4.5. read more

Came here because of proximity to Farm Progress Show....returned all three nights. Food is good, beer is cold and service is great! read more

Benny's Grill - Chicken fried steak - Steakhouses Near Me - Decatur, Illinois

If there was an award for the most average food place in America I think Benny's would be the champion. Unfortunately, that is the only category they would win. The food was unbelievably average and overpriced for what you get. The customer service is a bit rude and our food took forever to arrive. Definitely would not return if I had the choice. read more

Went twice. First time, had a Patty Melt and it was OK. Second time, I ordered a Reuben and it was inedible. The meat was brown and looked like it had been sitting around for a few days. Tasted that way too. Also wait staff couldn't figure out who was responsible for the table I was at and it took 5 minutes of debate for them to figure it out read more

Myself and a group of esteemed dinery colleagues visited Benny's on a cool April Decatur evening. From the outside Benny's is no sight for sore eyes and appears to have experienced remodeling in recent days. From the inside the ambiance is rustic with wooden walls that make for a quaint feel for a restaurant. We were greeted by a cheerful waitress who served us well for the duration of our stay. My colleagues ordered a few salads and were throughly impressed with the quality of the food. One team member ordered as to what many surmised as one of the largest plates of spaghetti this side of the Mississippi. The food is consistent in quality and did not disappoint. Many a time we've dined Benny's and we've never left BENt out of shape. 4 stars!! read more

Benny's Grill - Muhammad and spaghetti - Steakhouses Near Me - Decatur, Illinois

Benny's had a lot of hype from the people I know have gone there before and so my hopes may have been a little high when I went. and then I was very disappointing. I got a blue cheese "stuffed" burger. why is stuffed in quotations you ask? because there was maybe, MAYBE, a teaspoon of blue cheese. the meat was very low quality, very chewy and was not very enjoyable. My wife had a chicken sandwich that tasted like cardboard. Now I know that I exaggerate often, or as I call it, artistic embellishment but I am not exaggerating now, wet cardboard, it was not even edible and we ended up just sharing my meal. the only good part of this experience was the popcorn they give you when you sit down, which was old and stale but still tasty. on the whole, I won't eat here again. read more

The hickory bacon cheeseburger with hand cut fries was an excellent choice.I was looking for a good burger for lunch and saw this place on yelp with very good reviews.they cook your burger to your liking also.I'll be stopping here again got another carryout order. read more

Benny's Grill - Hickory bacon cheeseburger with hand cut fries. That's going to hit the spot. - Steakhouses Near Me - Decatur, Illinois

Just ok. Really do not have good or bad to say. Very average. I wouldn't say not to try it out. I will give it another try

Over and above!! We placed an order on door dash that included a salad with no croutons. When we got it, it was loaded with them. I called and explained that my daughter has Celiac so the croutons made it completely inedible and without hesitation, the store manager said - I would be more than happy to bring you a replacement. I gave him my address and 10 minutes later he pulled up himself with the crouton free salad made very fresh! That was very unexpected, very much appreciated, and definitely over and above! read more

Me and my cousin got there and were scared based off how few cars were there, we got inside and were seated pretty quickly. I ordered what I believe was called the Fatty Melt or whatever the meal with two grilled cheese and a hamburger in between was, and it was great. Really enjoyed the food along with affordable pricing, definitely going back soon. read more

Their burgers are top notch with great ingredients and in-house grounded beef. I usually get the spicy burger (burger with chopped jalepenos infused into the meat) or the Benny's burger with 2 eggs and bacon (it gets hella messy). And price is pretty good also. Usually have ESPN on the big screen so you can catch up on some sports while you eat at the bar. I've never head brunch there but I heard it's pretty popping(In Decatur? really?) on sunday brunch. Beers cheap and great daily specials. Can't beat that. Also have outdoor seating area when the weather is decent. read more

Walked in near the end of the Sunday brunch rush - place was packed! We were greeted immediately and shown the brunch options as well as being offered the menu. We opted for the menu items and thoroughly enjoyed the burgers - medium rare was a bit more on the rare side but quite delicious. The "Spicy burger" had good heat, but did not come with BBQ sauce as we expected from the menu description - our server promptly brought a side of the BBQ sauce which was sweet with a hint of tang, went great with the spicy burger as served. We all loved the fries - nothing left to take home. Though we did not have the buffet, there appeared to be a nice variety. Fried chicken, omelettes made to order - if we were hungrier we would have gone for it. My daughter said we should come here every time we do the local 5k! read more

Wanted to try out a new restaurant in town. Was nervous to pull into an almost empty parking lot at 6pm on a Sunday - I was thinking people might not like it and that's why the crowd was light. However, the restaurant was fine. Everyone in my group got what they wanted and expected and everyone seemed pleased. The menu is extensive and there is something for everyone. The server we had was great and did her job well! It's a nice little place in town of you're looking for something different to try. read more

Benny's is great with great food. We have had huge problems with Uber Eats delivery and they want to blame the restaurant. This is not the restaurant's fault! read more

Took my aunt Lou to eat here it was okay wasn't the greatest prices are too high service was not that good.....

Binny's has used their Covid closure time to remodel, and kudos to them! It looks fresh and fantastic! The staff is very friendly, and the whole place seems much more open and inviting. The food is always good, but last night we ate on the new screened in patio, and it was so good to be outside. They have a large menu, and everything on it is great tasting. I can't imagine what could be done to improve the place. read more

wonderful sandwiches and salads! only let down is that they were out of a couple of beers on tap and onion rings! we are moving to mount zion and stumbled upon this wonderful gem! we will return! my husband is excited that its right down the street from his workplace and will frequent it for lunches! terrific staff and great renovations to the inside! read more

Had the spicy burger with fries. Second time here and second time I enjoyed a great burger. The fries are great and the free popcorn is a pleasant treat! I recommend the burgers as the patties have great flavor. Service was excellent both times. The exterior of the building could use some work and the interior could be freshened up but the food and service are great! read more

Benny's Grill - Spicy burger!! Yum!!! - Steakhouses Near Me - Decatur, Illinois

Stopped in on business trip on the advice of locals and they did not disappoint. They are known for their ground steak burgers. I had the stuffed blue cheese burger and it was amazing! I will definitely be back when I'm in town again! read more

We were very impressed. It was our first meal out since restaurants reopened with restrictions. I had the fatty melt and sweet potato fries and he had the hickory bacon cheese burger. It is a HALF pound burger cooked to your choice. The burgers were very moist and juicy and were very tasty. The fries homemade fries and sweet potato fries were large portions and both cooked just right and were not greasy at all and tasted GREAT! It was very clean and had a rustic look and was well lit. The staff were extremely cordial. Great value for the money and so much I had to take a to go box. We WILL be going again. read more

This was a cute little place that had really good burgers and wings. The complimentary pop corn was a fun touch. I strongly suggest trying the bacon avocado burger! read more

While the service was fast and friendly and the beer cold, the food was just mediocre. I had a Reuben that tasted liked it was cooked on a grill that needed a good cleaning. My son couldn't eat his Mac and Cheese, he said it was gross. My husband's salad was pretty anemic, not many toppings. My daughter had the kids cheese pizza and it was just okay. We may go again, but just to sit at the bar and have a beer. read more

Overall food was good and service was excellent. I was disappointed that the burger i ordered, that was supposed to be hand made and stuffed with blue cheese, was in fact a pre-made, probably frozen burger that was only topped with blue cheese crumbles. Still it was good, but I was expecting something special. read more

Benny's doesn't look all that exciting from the outside and is rather unassuming on the inside, but they have a great menu to choose from. On my last visit, I had a burger and my friend had a salad (both excellent). We got their right when they opened, and it started to fill up fast right after. If you are looking for a local place with good burgers, give them a shot. read more

Had lunch, food and service were very good. $6.99 lunch special burger was great. The Reuben was also great. Looked like lots of business lunches. read more

Went to the Sunday brunch. Food was great, price was reasonable. I'll go back next time I'm in town visiting family.

Decided to try this place, and have been returning on a regular basis. Food was good, waitresses and bartenders are friendly. My only complaint is the burgers come out on the pink side, so order a little more well done than you prefer. Inside ambiance and decorations are fine, not too cheesy. read more

Awesome food! They do their own ground beef everyday - and you can taste the freshness! I had the Fatty Melt. Basically, it's a huge burger, but instead of a bun, they use two grilled cheese sandwiches! Boom! Let's do this. read more

Great food excellent service. Being their customers since Benny and Diana had Tuscany where we did our wedding and now is like coming to eat with our family. read more

Went back and tried the Blue Lucy - a blue cheese stuffed burger. EXCELLENT. I'd definitely go back. Heck, I want one right now!

Service was good food was decent. The bathroom looked like a rest stop in a horror film. Cleanliness/appearance is everything in the food industry. read more

First time customer and loved it. Great selection of food. Easy going waiters. Great service

Overall a very good burger. Juicy without being messy. Basic bar atmosphere. Friendly service, though my meal came at the same time as my appetizer so burger had cooled by the time I got to it. read more

BEST FOOD IN DECATUR! The former owner of Tuscany Grill has created a masterpiece. My family always wants to go here. The food melts in your mouth. The chopped steak is moutwhatering. The Bennys Burger is a one of a kind dance in your mouth. The Mad Daffy Chicken Sandwich is so juicy and delicious. The only issue is seating on a weekend. I wish he would remove the bar, put in a smaller bar and substitute with more seating. Price is very reasonable. read more

The food here is delicious. The service is very good too. There isn't much bar seating, which I preferred, because they took it out to put in games, but I guess they've got to pay the bills. They have an early bird menu, which is nice if you want to eat early. They have the best burgers in town, fresh, never frozen hamburger. read more

I've been here three times and as they say three strikes and you're out. I had a burger and fries each time I went and each time was a disappointment. I ask for medium and get well done all through. The last one was called Juicy Lucy. I somewhat expected the cheese that was in the middle to ooze out but it was just one solid lump. None of the burgers had any juiciness to them at all. I'm not sure if the cook keeps pressing on the patties as they cook or what, but sorry to say I won't be back. Servers were great. Very attentive. Prices are reasonable. read more

I had an excellent experience at Benny's. Ate here with a few friends and everyone enjoyed the meal. Our food took a while, however, so don't eat here if you're in a time crunch. read more

great food and great service the meatloaf sandwich is the best i have had and you cant go wrong with the benny burger, fantastic!
