    YUM! Happy customers
    Ashley G.

    Last minute pick for a quick date after our cat knocked the big breakfast I made this morning all over the floor. This place had EXTRA good food, and wonderful staff! Extra friendly regulars who obviously add to the awesome atmosphere here. Staff was very helpful and food was phenomenal. We didn't plan to eat everything but our plates were completely empty before we knew it! Good job to Benny's. We will be back!!!

    A surprise hidden gem down on the Dixie Highway in south Monroe. Tucked in the corner of a closed shopping center for over a decade packs regular customers in for great food. Couple brothers Elton and Al run the place, looks like Benny's retired. Elton straight outta Lincoln Park and the waitress too. Three of us had a fantastic meal. Grandson Pancakes n Bacon yeah he like it, she had a mega Omelette slathered with Country Gravy n Taters. Me a outrageous Delicious OMG mega Walleye Fillet I so Loved the long deep Fried Crispy Crunchy Walleye, available anytime. Actually a instant Addiction will get me back really soon. Famous for the big Breakfast, Fish n Crispy Fried Chicken. Step into 1970 large dining room spotless clean. Great Food Prices n Service with a smile, you know that small hometown feel that's hard to find. They on a well deserved vacation this week, so visit next week. #bennyshomecooking #monroemi #walleye #omellete #pancakes #bacon #hiddengem #downriverfriendseat

    Best diner in town. The owners and wait staff are fast, friendly, and highly-attentive to their customers. Their broasted chicken is the best. Highly recommend.

    I like this place. The food and service are always pretty good and so are the prices. They have lots of daily specials.

    Harbor Hook and Grille - Tuna Poke Bowl

    Harbor Hook and Grille

    3.5(11 reviews)

    Location, location, location! Located near a hot fishing spot, you'd expect a sea fare and that's…read morewhat Harbor Hook has. Not only Great Lakes fish but also ocean poke and calamari. This is not the type of restaurant that you'd expect in a coastal fishing village. My four star rating is based on the above and value. As pictured, the cuban sandwich and onion rings. I prefer battered rings, but these were breaded and seasoned. They were the best breaded rings i've ever had. The cuban sandwich was traditional with ham, pulled pork, cheese and pickles. It wasn't pressed, but that didn't affect the taste, just the appearance. The servers were very attentive and refilled my iced tea three times. Very clean eating area and restroom.

    On our way home from a run to the airport, we were both famished, so we turned to our trusty…read moreresource - Yelp! We were approaching the Monroe area, and did not want any fast food. We chose Habor Hook & Grille. This restaurant sits right across the street from the harbor, hence part of the name, and the food pics looked appealing. It was almost 9pm on a Tuesday night, so there weren't many people. It was rather dark when we entered, so I inquired if it was too late to get dinner and we were told the restaurant was serving until 10pm. The restaurant and bar area was a large open area with very high ceilings. There is an outdoor area for seating and what looked like a bar area as well. I asked about daily specials and our server told us there weren't any due to the Harbor Hook & Grille just implemented a new menu with several new offerings. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the Calamari appetizer (served with a thicker marinara sauce), the Harbor Cubano sandwich with fries, and the Tuna Poke Bowl. Tha Calamari was good, but could've used some additional seasoning as it was somewhat bland. The Harbor Cubano sandwich was also good - roasted pork, sliced ham, Swiss cheese, dill pickles, and mustard. There wasn't much mustard if any, so our server offered any of their sauces - a garlic aioli was selected. This sandwich was served with fries. I am not sure if it was because we arrived so late or what may have happened, but these fries were somewhat mushy and limp. They may have been sitting for a while or undercooked. The Tuna Poke Bowl, in my opinion, was the highlight of our food selections. The flavor of the tuna, cucumber, carrots, radishes, and pickled onions were topped with a spicy sauce that paired very well with this dish. All-in-all a decent dining experience. I would've gone with 3.5 stars if available in Yelp! scoring.
