    Hello , went for lunch, the calamari was great, they keep all the items and sauce separate so you can mix as you like! home made house fries like a potato chip are a must. But it's all bout the Mozambique sauce!!! As in shrimp Mozambique, the best!

    The little necks were good I had to try them and I have no complaints at all. Kat was our waitress and she is very good at her job. I must say she provides excellent service and makes sure you have everything you need no matter how busy they are. This is a very laid back casual ambiance setting nice atmosphere.

    Lobster fisherman's platter with scallops, shrimp, clams and rice

    always an amazing meal here. portions are enormous and delicious. I had the fisherman's platter that came with giant lobster tail and claws, scallops, shrimp and little neck clams served with seafood rice we had oysters and calamari for apps and she kept refilling the bread basket with delicious rolls and mozambique sauce. our server was very friendly but not the best. we gave her the one children's order first but she served everyone else and brought his last. waited an incredibly long time for the apps to be served and meals came shortly after that it's a great family place that also has outside seating would definitely recommend

    Do they still have the eggplant parm?

    Does anyone know what the dipping sauce that comes with the bread is? It really is amazing and I was wonder if I could find a recipe online or buy it. Thanks in advance!

    Yes, it's called "Faials sauce".. It's from the owners last restaurant that used to be in North Smithfield, RI, called Faials. Not sure of the recipe or if there is one online, only that the owner knows it and holds it in high esteem. So you can try…

    Benjamin's Easter Buffet 2025…read more I don't normally leave bad reviews but this felt necessary. Let me paint you a picture of Easter at Benjamin's: My family of 9 adults had a reservation for their 3pm seating. When we arrived a little before 3, we had to wait in a line that was out the door of the restaurant and down a long hotel hallway. We were pretty far down, and as we came in people were wishing us luck or calling other restaurants to see if they could go there instead. It was like being on the RMS Titanic- a foreboding sense of inevitable danger ahead. We were worried about our 3 elderly family members being able to stand in line, but luckily the line started moving after 10 minutes or so. When my party got to the front, we were seated. They did not ask if we had a reservation- just led us to a table. Half our group was cut off by another party that just arrived, claiming they had priority because they had a reservation. Hah! So did everyone else in that line but okay. Anyway, the rest of our party joined us, our waiter brought out 2 carafes of water, and told us his tables would be going first. He felt really bad for the customers, you could tell. We asked him about the food they ran out of as people were muttering about that in line. He said they were out of garden salad and turkey (because they dropped it, apparently. Huh.) but they were also out of bread rolls. If you're going to have three buffet seatings- have food for all three. So the buffet itself was outside the dining room. They had opened at least one other banquet hall at the hotel to fit people, so they were all coming toward this buffet table. Luckily, we were first in line. There were three servers at the buffet for 11 trays of food so it took forever. The scrambled eggs looked awful- very dry. No one piece of bacon looked like it was cooked the same- some of mine were crispy some were chewy. Sausage was fine. They gave you two pieces of each. Stingy! One of my two French toast sticks was hard as a rock. Potatoes were okay. I went to get coffee at the next table and Oop! There wasn't enough to fill a cup in the one canister on the table. No one seemed to be in a rush to bring out more though. The dessert table had some danishes and another tray of blondie crumbs. While eating this first plate, someone finally came around to ask what the name of our reservation was. Better late than never! Our waiter brought us a whole coffee pot because he knew we didn't get any, complete with fresh cream and sugars. After finishing our first plates, some of us headed back to the buffet for round 2. But lo and behold the line was back around the corner! A family friend dining in another section of the restaurant told us that at this point, they had only just received water. Yikes! We did not want to wait in line, so we waited at our table for a bit. Some of us never even returned to the buffet table. A few of us did head back now that the line had died down. I set a timer; it took 14 minutes and 43 seconds from the time I entered the line until I was back at my table. When you reached the buffet area, they had now diverted the line to start at the ham carving table rather than the eggs, so the feng shui was even worse than before, with the line now stretching across the small buffet area. This time, I got the lunch offerings. The ham was alright. The mashed potatoes were incredibly salty. The carrots were mushy on the outside but hard on the inside. The scrod was fine and the penne was fine. There was a welcome addition to brownies at the dessert table. We could've paid extra for a better dessert selection off the menu though. We were not as wise as our fellow diners who complained and got comped, so my elderly grandfather who was paying for our meal paid full price for this, at $35 per person. Oh, and they didn't tell us about the credit card processing fee, costing an extra $10. Thank you to our waiter who tried to make this doomed experience a little better! Suffice to say, we will not be returning to Benjamin's.

    Never coming here again. Food came out 10+ minutes apart so mine was cold before other people in…read moremy groups even came out. They comped part of it, but not worth trying again. Worst waitress I've ever encountered Janice. So many blame games & confrontation. Will update quality of food once I reheat it at home. Guessing the drinks are strong so you won't notice. And the final meal we were waiting on, chicken pot pie, came out cold in the center. 2 parties total at lunch on a Saturday, so far from busy.

Everything came out hot fresh or cold and fresh. They were running a special for lobster rolls two for 45 and a lot of my group actually got those having and I treated him to a whole belly clam plate which was super reasonable it was like $27. He ate the whole thing which is like amazing cause he had ever finishes wherever we get someplace else I got the clam cakes and white chowder. It was very good. The chat was nice and thick just like I like it. The clam picks were big as you can see from the pictures. I only got three, but I couldn't even finish the three that I had. And that was $12. We ended up being able to sit beside the river and you watched it was beautifully cooling and nice breeze was coming by. It was very peaceful and it made for a good dinner ride from a motorcycle group. They close at 8 o'clock. We got there about seven had no problem being served. Like I said the people that they had super friendly after we came in and we knew they were closing at eight still three more cars came in you know and still they saved wide open and served everybody. They didn't shut it down till everybody was taken care of and that's a good business. That's the one you wanna go to the one that make everything homemade. I wanna have the food fresh every day it advertises that they have fresh fish every day and that's a big plus point for me I felt the prices were average for today's price menu I mean, where can you go and get two lobster rolls for $45 not too many places that I know

The menu & reviews looked promising. I'm glad we had reservations, as they were packed on a Saturday night. I was pleased that we were seated within 5 minutes. I was also pleased that their huge booth fit 4 of us comfortably & they were happy to add a chair at the end for our 5th guest. A basket of warm rolls was immediately placed on our table. The large menu had something for everyone in every price range. We started with drinks, all of which were good. My companion & I shared a bottle of Clean Slate Riesling ($33) which we enjoyed. She & I both ordered the baked sea scallop special, which came with 2 dinner sides for $24.99. The scallops were delicious but I would have been happier if my baked potato & steamed broccoli had been cooked just a few minutes longer. They were edible, just not quite as soft as I prefer. Our friends enjoyed their meals... citrus swordfish (also one of the specials), French onion soup & salad, and a chicken salad sandwich. My companion & I shared a piece of lemon meringue pie for dessert, which was good. It wasn't as big a serving as at some restaurants, but it was enough. I have no idea of the cost as prices are not listed on the dessert menu, a practice I dislike. I also didn't like the fact that I asked for a fork as I don't like eating cake or pie with a spoon & was told I couldn't have one as they were all needed. Our friends enjoyed their peanut butter pie & coconut cake. Our server was adequate. We had to chase her down to ask for water, lemon, etc. I understand she was very busy but a smile would have been nice. I do appreciate the fact that we were not rushed out, and we were allowed plenty of time to catch up with our friends. Also, the hostess was gracious enough to take a photo of our group as we were leaving the restaurant. This restaurant used to be the Country Inn on Market Street in Warren. They have a decent sized parking lot, although it seemed barely sufficient for the amount of volume they do. I would rate this restaurant a 3.5 if I had that option. Will I return? Probably not.

We kicked things off with a very dirty vodka martini with blue cheese stuffed olives, paired with their warm, freshly baked cinnamon bread that disappeared almost as quickly as it hit the table. For appetizers, we ordered a bowl of rich, creamy New England clam chowder & the seafood on ice platter featuring perfectly chilled shrimp & sweet jumbo lump crab. Then came the pièce de résistance: three perfectly steamed chicken lobsters. Because let's be honest...one is never enough & two is too many! They were steamed to perfection, sweet, tender & everything you hope for during lobster season. To top off the evening, the staff surprised hubby with a decadent slice of chocolate cake layered with rich chocolate ganache & topped with fresh whipped cream for his birthday. It was such a thoughtful touch & made a wonderful evening even more special! The service throughout the night was warm & attentive. Add in fantastic live entertainment & the beautiful riverside views outside the restaurant, you have the recipe for a memorable dining experience. We will definitely be back for another visit. If you are looking for outstanding seafood, exceptional hospitality & a classic New England dining experience, The Old Grist Mill Tavern is absolutely worth the trip. Highly recommend.
