Ben's Restaurant & Bar

Ben's Restaurant is in a great setting and you can enjoy live music out on the patio on weekends during the summer. The salad was fresh with a generous amount of blue cheese crumbles. My perch dinner was batter dipped which is a heavier coating than what I prefer but it was crispy and browned without overcooking the small filets. A fresh squeeze of lemon, a touch of tartar sauce and all is well. My Tangueray and tonic was made with a generous pour. The spouse enjoyed a very tender portion of prime rib. She raved about the side of applesauce, which had soft chunks of apples and appeared homemade. She was also delighted to discover that they have Angry Orchard on draught. The server was an attentive person. We were in no hurry so if the service on the slow side we did not notice. Overall I believe this place appeals to an older crowd. The musician had a good repertoire of Eagles, Bob Seeger, and others of that ilk. Dinner and drinks for two with some familiar oldies all for $45!

We celebrated my birthday here at the local restaurant. My meal was delicious, the waitress was attentive and it wasn't overly packed for a Friday night. This is our second time eating here in 3 months with family. Unfortunately there is NO gluten free menu or options of what is "safe" for someone who has Celiac Disease. So it means you're stuck with a salad. It's unfortunate to come to a restaurant with decent food where no one care about your dietary needs. This wasn't a one-off, it happened to us both times we dined here. Very disappointing.

For easy dinner.. staff are friendly and helpful. Friday fried fish dinner never disappoints. Now that it is lent they're busier for take outs too!

Great service! Coleslaw was amazing for burgers! Orange roughy was cooked perfectly with rice and vege.

This place is a tradition for my grandfather and I after a fishing trip. This past time was very disappointing. The food was good, although the portions have gotten smaller. The cocktails were sad. I ordered a rum and Coke. I couldn't tell there was rum in it. Not in a good way. It tasted like watered down Coke. The service was subpar, but I'll give it a pass. Everywhere is short staffed.Now for the fun part. The food poisoning. My entire group got it. Different dishes, same stomach issues. First time for that, but it's made me wary of going back. It's sad because I feel like a tradition has been squashed.

I got the fried seafood platter came with 2 nice sized pieces of fish, 2 extra large shrimp and 2 giant scallops. It was all delicious. The fish was the highlight though. Next time I will just get the fish dinner and save a few bucks. Everything was very good and I didn't leave hungry at all.

My husband and I came to Bens tonite for their fish dinner and a seafood platter. We were so upset with the way the food looked, and the fishy taste of the fish we never had experienced before. The deep fried fry's and seafood were not crispy, as though they had been thrown into less then hot oil, or oil which needed changed. We are regulars here, so we know this isn't the norm. please don't serve food that costs good money like this! We are hesitant to return, and tired of hearing we are understaffed. if that's the case maybe you shouldn't open. Happy Valentines Day!

The prime rib was outstanding!!!Our server Bree was very attentive and nice. I will definitely dine here again.

Stopped the other night and ate in the bar. Ordered the perch dinner with baked potato and green beans. The draft beer I ordered wasn't real cold... so the second one was bottled served in a frosted mug. Much better. The fish and potato was good.. but was served like warm. Very tasty but disappointed that is wasn't hot. The beans were perfectly cooked too... but were barely warm. Upon completing my meal I waited for the completed meal dishes to be cleared . The waitress never cleared them or asked me anything. She never brought a bill. Twenty minutes passed... so I guessed at the amount, including tip, and left the money on the bar. No excuses for this kind of service

Best White Sangria in the area. My sister-in-law lives in Youngstown and I live near Canton. Ben's is half way for wach of us. We sat on the deck. Other patrons came out with their dogs. It was a very friendly atmosphere. We met at 2:00 pm so there was no wait.Rachel was our waitress. She was GREAT!!! Let us catch up before we had to look at the menu. All the food is outstanding at Ben's. I got the Broasted Chicken and it was lightly breaded. Just Perfect. We've had the fish and the steak sandwich, never disappointed.Worth the drive.
