Pretty good size portions, not huge Denver omelette was good & not dry. Wheat toast was nice & thick (too much butter) Square potatoes were dry & way over salted Coffee was good, hot & plentiful Bill was almost $60 B4 tip for 3 breakfasts read more

This place has good menu options and good service! Our server was very attentive even though we had a big party at our table. The biggest pro is that the coffee they serve you is actually hot, the way that it should be! My only complaint is that although the women's restroom looks clean and remodeled, the baby changing table is gross. It looked old and filthy as if they forgot to replace it when the bathroom was redone. I had to go outside to change my baby in my truck on a cold winter day. read more

Located in a strip mall, go to north side for ample parking. Exterior clean and inviting. My rave, the overall service was outstanding. Extremely professional and well executed. Breakfast fare. Went with chicken fried steak, side of biscuits and gravy and a few eggs served with hash browns. Excellent. All served hot and to my style request. Wife went with a cinnamon roll French toast. Her rave over the nice hit of cinnamon throughout. Not in our neighborhood, but may be worth a follow up drive for us in the future. Well done Benny ! read more

Benny's Place has comfort food that is full of flavor and freshness! From breakfast to lunch, you cannot go wrong! They offer the best tuna melt sandwich. It comes with crispy French fries, a pickle and a small cup of amazing Cole slaw! Their eggs are cooked to perfection as well as their pancakes and French toast. The service is fast and friendly. The atmosphere is also very friendly. It is a cozy, clean restaurant. read more

I visited the restaurant for the second time this past weekend for my son's 18th birthday brunch with family and friends, I just want to say our experience was nothing short of amazing. From the host to our server Pedro and even the owner Benny who stopped by to check on the table and they were all very personable. We all enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. No complaints and definitely will be coming back! read more

Good place for breakfast or lunch. It's clean, inviting, and has a lot of choices on the menu. Came for lunch recently and had the salmon and eggs. It was delicious! My friend had the veggie skillet and that was really good too. Big portions and enough to share. They close at 3pm. Service was alright. read more

Family owned and run, a local favorite of our family. We come here often for breakfast and coffee. Everyone working here is great, willing to serve. The food is always great quality, well prepared and tastes great! Its a family restaurant so everyone is welcome. read more

We take our family here for breakfast whenever we visit Oswego. Great service and the food is always on point.

Bennys is normally a very live, laugh, love breakfast spot. Paul Richards has eaten here many times with no complaints. However, today, Paul Richards was so looking forward to a delish plate of triple berry pancakes. Halfway through eating them, a dirty piece of lettuce was observed in the middle of the whipped cream and berries. Can you say barf in my scarf????? Absolutely ruined Paul Richard's appetite. Paul Richards will be back, but is hoping for a better experience next time. read more

If I'm being completely honest I was a little underwhelmed by the food. The thing is the food looked wonderful on my plate, but once I began eating my meal let's just say it didn't taste as good as it looked. However, the service was great and my waiter was friendly and made sure he took care of my friend and I. We made no prior reservations and our wait for a table took about 10-15 minutes. The interior is clean and simple with a lot of open space between the tables, so I really enjoyed that. We both ordered the "Hey Ricky" omelette as well as the "Granny Apple Smith Crepe". The portions were really big but again unfortunately the taste wasn't there for me. I do plan on coming back sometime in the future to give it another try. Next time I think I'll order the waffles or pancakes I'll probably have better luck with those items. read more

4/6/25: Outstanding service!! Chicken salad sandwich with tater tots is to die...YUM!!! Eggs Benedict needed a little more hollandaise sauce but we're delish!!! read more

Benny's is a ok breakfast place except their breakfast is lacking flavor their potatoes/ hasbrowns just taste like oil and potatoes no seasoning no good flavor to the potatoes the Denver omelette I've had better burgers I've had better. The chorizo omelette Rickey's the chorizo has no flavor at all. read more

Friendly and fast service, lots of options, clean and welcoming space. Nothing spectacular to give it that 5th star but a solid 4-4.5. If you live nearby, this would be a great regular stop for breakfast or brunch. I recommend the veggie skillet. Give it a try! read more

First time trying this place. It was really good. The country fried steak was better than most places I've had. The kids had the breakfast sampler and they smashed it all. My husband got a skillet and said the scrambled eggs were really good. I didn't care for their biscuits too much, they were more soggy than crunchy. And their pancakes were so good! Everyone smashed those! read more

Great food and great service!! We took our family out for breakfast and everything was great. Highly recommend!!

I've never visited before, but I was in the area so I thought I would stop for a quick breakfast. The server was very nice. I want to start there. Overall, the food was just not good at all. I ordered a simple two egg breakfast with hashbrowns and bacon and toast. As soon as it was served, I could tell that everything was not good. The hashbrowns looked really dry like cotton. The bacon was overcooked. Not just crispy, but partially black. The toast was burned all around the edges. And the eggs were laced. That makes them tough to eat. Overall, it seems like they need help with their techniques. It feels like they didn't use any oil to cook the hashbrowns. And everything was flavorless. Maybe the lunch is better. But I would definitely not go back. read more

Benny's is a go to if we want a great breakfast with coffee close to home. The service is consistently great and the menu options appeal to everyone in our family. They offer gluten free choices as well. My favorites are the Eggs Benedict (at least four different options). The waffles and pancakes. The portions a generous. Be prepared to ask for a to go container. Located In Meson Square plaza, Oswego read more

The food is good. Was obsessed with the chilaquiles they had in September. The staff is also really nice and fast. The place is comfortable and not overly crowded the way ihop is. I like it a lot here. read more

Took my brother, sister-in-law, and my 5yr old daughter to Benny's for breakfast last Friday. We all enjoyed the omelettes, and my daughter loved the Belgian Waffles. Great place to have breakfast!!! read more

This place was one of my favorites but lately they are lacking in using to much salt in there food is been multiple times I complain but honestly I don't think they care anymore I feel like they got comfortable with there business and when we ordered SKIRT steak skillet we should get SKIRT STEAK not some random meat and they have the nerve to tell you its skirt steak.... read more

Went here for breakfast on a Friday morning they were really busy. The restaurant is bright and airy! After a very short wait we were sat and our server was there quickly he took our drink order and came back and then took our order. I was so surprised on how fast our breakfast came. I have the Irish Man's Skillet he asked me if I want in made with corned beef hash or just chopped corned beef I chose that it also came with a side of bread or pancake I chose a biscuit with sausage gravy. My husband had a omelette that was really good also. The restaurant and staff were very friendly. I told one of the staff members that we were given gift certificates for them to use from someone. He remembered the friend who gave them to us, and even mentioned the great review that she gave them. It was great to celebrate a very sad, but special day at Benny's Place in honor of a very special friend whose nickname was Benny! read more

There food is really great for the price. You get a great portion of the food their omelets are wonderful! They seem family oriented as far as servers they had no problem getting everything needed. They do offer you to close out the restaurant for reservations which I'm glad I made it before the restaurant closed out just for a family event I guess that's great they offer that but it kind of sucks for people to arrive who didn't know just to show up and see a sign on the door. Overall I had a good experience with the food. read more

I have been to Benny's place a few times for breakfast. Even though when we walk in, they are packed, we never have to wait a long time for our party of 4 with a baby. The hostess is always very nice and our service is always attentive and fast. They have specialty coffee, so you can get a white chocolate mocha or other "fancy" flavor that tickles your fancy. I usually just go for the traditional coffee because they have free refills and flavored cream. I have gotten their pancakes. They are fluffy, sweet, and yummy. The triple berry cakes are tart and very traditional. The most recent time I went to Benny's, I ordered the tuscany skillet. It was very delicious. The chicken sausage, tomatoes, and green peppers make a savory, yet light meal packed with flavor. The mozzarella cheese was not excessive, so it added a creamy, salty texture to the meal. Overall, I will definitely be back. It is a solid breakfast establishment good food and good service. read more

I went here over the weekend and as expected, there was at least a half hour wait to get in. No biggie, as this is usually a good indicator that the food is good. I had country eggs Benedict. Fantastic. My wife had a Tuscany omelette, which she loved. The portion sizes were great and everything was cooked perfectly. The only negative here was the service was 4/10 mainly because they were short handed. This led to forgotten sides and no refills on our drinks. I'll go back since the food was so good, but next time I hope the service is better. read more

I have been here a few times and I was never really impressed enough to write a review. My last visit was better than the ones in the past. I got there on a Saturday morning and there was quite a few people waiting to be seated. I asked if I could have a seat at the counter/bar area. That worked out great, no wait. I was given the menu by the man who was behind the register. He took my order and I was given coffee right away. However, he did not give me any creamer. I had to wait a bit on that. He took my order and my food came out pretty quickly. I ordered a steak skillet. It was hood, nothing extraordinary about it. I never got my coffee refilled, I was only checked on once. My water ran out and the man who was serving on me was too busy checking people out. I've been here a few times because it's convenient, portions are good, but the service lacks and the food is just ok. read more

We've only been here for breakfasts, but it's your typical breakfast joint. Fast and friendly service. We've ordered omelets, skillets, breakfast burritos, pancakes. Everything is good but nothing really stands out. HUGE portions! I can usually get 3 meals from leftovers. I like the interior decor. The space is large and filled with light, the perfect way to start a weekday morning. And most importantly, it's clean. The bussers get to tables right away. If you live in the area, check your Clipper magazine. It used to have coupons. read more

I've heard many good things about this restaurant in the past, but never really put much stock in them. However, after eating here for the first time, I can see what the hype is about. I ordered the Country Side skillet, and it was delicious! The eggs, veggies, and meat was very well cooked, and the side of country gravy was very tasty. Our server was very polite and professional. The overall atmosphere was very inviting. I'd greatly recommend this place if you're in Oswego and looking for a good breakfast or lunch spot. read more

We ordered for pick up and it was fresh and ready to go! The portions were large and the food was tasty! I will dine from there again!

The service was so so but the food is good. I had an omelette and hash browns with pancakes. I asked for crispy hash browns. The chefs listened to instructions. We would ask our server for something and she would forget what we asked for. My gf asked for a quart of soup to go. We never got it and had to remember to check the bill. She didn't charge us for it. So that was fine. read more
