Had breakfast / brunch at Benji's and I thought the food was great- and that's really what you're there for. Service was good, and the ambiance was Ok - nothing fancy here. Sit-down and have a feast.

2 stars for nostalgia and matzo ball soup. But shouldn't a deli offer real pastrami? This place is supposed to be the best deli in MKE (since Jake's is taking a standing eight count, if not actually knocked out), yet they don't offer legit pastrami. And pastrami is the foundation of a real deli. But Benji offers thin yet weirdly hard to chew slices of past-its-sell-by-date pastrami. No flavor, bad texture, not fresh, expensive. The rye and brown mustard are the highlights of the sandwich. You don't have to be Katz's or Canter's, but cmon. Waterfront Deli serves much better pastrami, and their pastrami is precooked/prepackaged/shipped in from food service. Have a little pride. The best thing Benji offers is their beef hot dog. Which I can make at home. It's a shame that they treat their customers with such disregard.

There is great food and desserts for anyone. You can get from the counter or get table service. It has the ambience of a deli and would suggest.

Really great classic deli sandwiches! Have gotten soups a couple times and they seem a bit overpriced for the sustenance. Price overall is high but great quality.

Reliable favorite in the neighborhood. Don't expect any atmosphere but the food is solid. Recommend the tunafish sandwich. Burgers are great and hopple popple. Just ask for the salami to be well done. Perfection.

This sandwich truly lives up to its name. It was so unbelievably SALTY but I was so so hungry that I ate as much as I could. I may try Benji's delicatessen again but I will not be ordering this sandwich. The pickle wasn't good either.I expected better.

Recommend the beef Borsch and matzoh ball soup. Corn beef is also very good. We get it delivered.

Portions are small and the price is high. The only delicatessen in the area. The quality has gone down with the new ownerships.

Had a taste for a pastrami sandwich. Drove up to Benji's with my wife. Huge disappointment. The meat was very, very tough and looked as though it came from a grocery store package. Pastrami and corned beef are supposed to be cut across the grain to make it more tender. Mine was cut with the grain and was like eating rope. The meat was also served at room temperature which didn't help for tenderness. The quantity was nothing like their picture but in this case that was good. Their rye bread was tremendous. The server (she's been there for years) was also good. My wife had pea soup which she felt was "OK." I should have had hoppel poppel.

Great food and deli atmosphere. The staff was friendly and welcoming. My girlfriend just moved in across the street and I have a feeling they will be seeing a lot of me1
