Ester was our waitress... Amazing!!!! Had the market fresh fish, it was a red grouper... Amazing!!!! Manager super nice!!!! We can't afford it all the time, but it's definitely gonna be our special occasion spot! It was worth every penny!!!!!!
One of the best places I've been to thus far...great food, wonderful staff, and strong drinks!
The drinks are yummy, Christmas decor was on point (perfect photo op), and music was a vibe. The manager and staff are sweet and accommodating. Definitely a spot you want to check out with friends.

Food is decent bar standard fare. Good selection between healthy and classic comfort food. Service was good overall, server seemed a bit overwhelmed but still managed well enough. Cool layout, lots of screens, nice center bar.

So we decided to stop at this place for a bite to eat and a drink since it is a rainy Sunday. It has a nice set up and even a upstairs with what look like a outdoor area. We had the boneless wings with the habanero BBQ sauce on them and they were amazing. We also had the quesadilla that was a little spicy as well and was amazing. We will go back and try more soon
Awesome food, drinks & fantastic service! Fun place to go for a game or any day it seems! The chicken & waffles were delicious and the nachos were so filling & yummy! Love it!!!
Stumbled upon this restaurant when we could not get a table somewhere else. Turned out to be a great choice. We easily got a table upstairs so we could see multiple tv screens and people watch. I had the Barbacoa Bowl with a Raspberry Margarita which hit the spot. Will drop in again when in the area. Service was good.
I really love Benchmark, it is my top bar choice if I am in Old Town. Very modern layout with 2 bars, one on the top level on one on the floor level. If you are looking for a bar in Old Town I recommend giving it a peek.
Benchmark 4C- Amazing service and ambiance! I was really impressed with how great and delicious the food was!
π§ Mozzarella sticks were great and full of flavor!
𦬠Buffalo wraps were mouth-watering and crispy! I highly recommend trying them if you like a bit of spice!
π Margherita Pizza- Perfect amount of cheese and sauce!! LOVED IT!
πΈ Cucumber Gimlet was refreshing and a must try!
Canβt wait to go back!
We went to benchmark every Thursday after volleyball. Had a lot of servers but Mauve was our favorite. She was our server for the end of the year party and it was packed and she still gave us phenomenal service.
Pretty nice spot to go out with friends for a beer.
The staff was very helpful and friendly.
Would suggest for a weekend night with friends, they have a DJ and the atmosphere is very good.
Mostly a younger crowd.
