    This was our 1st visit to Benjamin Prime. Everything was AMAZING! Started with the crabcake and lobster bisque, the flavors were delicious. Porterhouse for 2, lobster mac n cheese and mushrooms… OMG flavors exploding in your mouth. Perfectly cooked, great crust. We were so full we took a pecan pie to go! The service was friendly and attentive. We’ll definitely be back!

    The General Manager Bruno and his staff put a major emphasis on service. From the second you walk into the restaurant until the moment you leave, it is all about great service! My family has eaten there many times. Tonight, Bruno, Waiter Remi and Remi's assistants were spot on! The food ranges from very good to outstanding each time we eat there. And, we live in Westchester and prefer this venue over all the other Benjamin locations! The food, the service, and the vibe is awesome there!! Hats off to Bruno and his staff!!
