Benjamin is a nice place. Great concept: French steakhouse. The food was great. I had the French onion soup to start. It was perfectly balanced, not greasy, great. I also tried the grilled bone marrow from a friend & the grilled leek (served cold). All good. Then I had the fillet mignon with the sauce perourgine (?) & truffle mashed potatoes. The truffle flavour didn't come through enough. It also didn't come through on my friend's truffle fries. They did not have a good batch I guess. But I would say that overall that didn't matter. The food was really good.
The biggest issue was the final bill which had several errors in pricing. The sides were at $16 (instead of $12 as stated on the menu) & my sauce was meant to be $10 extra but on the bill said +$14. There were errors on my friend's bill as well. Be careful to check! I will also point out that the menu here on Google has changed & the pricing of some of the items is also different. All that aside, it's a good restaurant. Good food & nice service.

Excellent dîner sans réservation. Il y avait longtemps que je n'avais pas mangé du boudin. Eh bien cest très bon ici ! Mon plat de résistance fût les ravioles aux truffes sauce sauvagine, un délice!!!

Les attentes concernant ce resto étaient élevées compte tenu des nombreux articles de presse & les commentaires élogieux depuis sa récenteouverture. J ai apprécié mon expérience mais il y a place à amélioration...

La salle à manger est visuellement jolie mais bizarrement aménagé... Les tables bordant les fenêtres sont minuscules, parfaites pour prendre un café ou un sandwich mais beaucoup trop petites pour prendre un repas (coutellerie, verres, coupes à vin, plats, etc...). Les places au bar sont trop rapprochées, ont s y sent un peu oppressé, dommage.Par contre il y a quelques superbes banquettes en demi lune, assez grandes pour y manger confortablement. L ambiance est correct, un peu trop éclairé à mon goût & ça manque de musique d ambiance en background.

Le service fut sympathique malgré la visible nervosité de notre serveuse Stacy. Sa bonne humeur, son enthousiasme & sa gentillesse ont largement compensé pour son léger manque d assurance.

L entrée d escargots était absolument savoureuse. L entrée de poireaux manquait de garniture & il y avait des morceaux qui manquaient de tendreté (cuisson inégale.) Le porterhouse était parfait ainsi que la poêlée de champignons sauvages. Les asperges étaient bonnes mais un peu quelconque, ça manquait d assaisonnement. Les frites étaient bonnes, portion petite par contre. J ai adoré la sauce aux poivres par contre elle était tiède. Mention spéciale pour l amuse bouche offerte en début de repas, une boule croustillante avec du boeuf à l intérieur. Le paris brest, un peu trop sucré mais bien exécuté. Portion généreuse & visuellement alléchante.

En conclusion, c était une belle soirée & je compte bien y retourner dans quelques mois, si l occasion s y présente lorsque le restaurant aura atteint'sa pleine vitesse de croisière'.

J'ai été au Benjamin pour la première fois dernièrement & j'ai vraiment aimé. Un excellent service de la part de Joseph, super efficace dans ses recommendations!

J'ai essayé le crab cake en entrée, la magret de canard pour mon repas & l'omelette norvégienne pour le désert. La viande était vraiment tendre, j'ai particulièrement aimé la sauce (je crois c'était à l'orange).

Il y a aussi une vaste sélection de martini pour les cocktails, je recommande le Martinez 🍸
