Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

My friend and I tried Benchmark for the first time last night, and let me just tell you. It was a whole other dining experience. The outside of the restaurant is bold and a statement piece. Upon entering, the atmosphere and ambience was nice and inviting . The music of choice was perfect! I vibed to every song and knew most of them. The server, Sam was very polite and attentive.Now to the food.. we had a variety of entrees and everything double checked to my taste buds! We had a Cajun smothered hoe cake with shrimp and a sauce that was so good. Chicken and bacon gnocchi was excellent, Pork belly that was perfectly seasoned and smoked, along with amazing sides, dessert and margaritas. This place is a solid 10/10. We also met the executive chef, Joey. He is amazing and such a sweetheart. His attention detail on flavoring and presentation is top tier! We got a chance to chat with him and the owner, Jason who is so nice and engaged with his customers. The overall experience was amazing and I will definitely be coming back soon!! Thank you!😊

My wife and I came to celebrate our anniversary. We had the best time. Our server was fantastic. The food was perfect. We had an amazing time in this amazing atmosphere. The bread pudding and mac & cheese were my personal favorite.

Restaurant was very good. Service was excellent. We had the Blackened Salmon, the Chicken, Gnocchi and French Dip. All dishes came out beautifully presented and tasted very good. The mac and cheese was especially good, highly recommend. Good portion sizes for all dishes. Great place for a date or with a group of friends.
