love coming here to eat. The food is absolutely wonderful and the waiting staff are super friendly. Owner is always there talking to customers and you can tell who are always repeat customer by the way they get excited to see him. Kids love having dinner here too. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a family dinner, date night or just drinks at the bar. Great location, especially for dinning outside during the spring/summer time and any scranton festivals.

The customer service here was horrible. I don't know if they were short staffed but everything we asked for took 736474 years to get to us. We ordered the crab cake, shrimp scampi and the lobster ravioli. We would order the crab cake and the ravioli again. Would we come back? Honestly no.

The food was okay. It is way overpriced. Not even a soup or salad offered as a side to your meal, no sides come with your meal at all. Why is it so dark in there?

Beautiful little restaurant, great atmosphere and food was exceptional.
I have been here a total of 4 times. 2 of those times we were dressed in casual/relaxed clothing, the front desk guy or maybe even a manager was very rude to my wife and I, very short and lacked emotion towards us in comparison to how he treated other guests. The 2 other times we went there we were dressed in fancy clothes, suit/tie and her dress wear we were treated and spoken to in a way which seemed much more inviting. Ordered a glass of wine for my wife and for the price it appeared short some wine as we compared it to the people next to us and their wine. We asked if the bar tender could add some more, but that was a no.The food we do always enjoy but sometimes the service makes us not want to return.

The meal was well prepared. We will definitely return. Superb quality. We also appreciated that our waitress suggested turning around our table so that we could sit next to each other, since we were having problems hearing each other.
Always a great special selection. We had shrimp wrapped in smoked salmon and a special sauce as an appetizer, OMG that was fantastic. My wife chose off the menu the filet mignon, which was very tender and cooked as she likes it, medium rare, with sides of garlic mashed potatoes & creamed spinach which is enough for 2 people+. I chose one of the seafood specials, a huge piece of sole, topped with shrimp, mussels & calamari in a special thick white wine sauce over a bead of white beans. The taste was spectacular. Benny & Zee make you feel very welcome & at home. Can't wait to return.

This restaurant is amazing! Friendly and helpful service, great ambiance, and the food is so good! I had the lobster ravioli and it was absolutely delicious. Others in my group enjoyed the pasta primavera and the penne vodka and the whole table was happy. The drinks were very much enjoyed by those who ordered them. Our only regret was not leaving room for their deserts that looked lovely.

I had a reservation on Valentine’s Day this past week and while the food was amazing, the service was lacking. Our waitress was absolutely terrible and I would give her name but she didn’t even tell us it while we were sat. Not a single time did she check up on our food or if we needed a refill of whatever. The only time we saw her was when she asked about our drinks and when we finally asked the food runner for her to get us the check. For every other table around us they were treated completely differently. They were read all of the specials , shown the desserts for Valentine’s Day and given proper service. I’m not sure what our waitress thought when she saw a younger couple sitting in her section, but regardless she treated us extremely poorly. If you are a younger couple don’t bother coming here and expecting good service. Other than our waitress the manager and food runner were both great!
food was amazing! Manager and the gentleman who was taking care of our plates / running the food were very kind. We unfortunately had a terrible waitress. She didn’t tell us her name at the beginning (which is whatever) and immediately gave off a vibe as if we were an inconvenience to her. Didn’t tell us the special for the night and just asked if we wanted anything besides water. We saw her wait on other tables and WOW, what a difference ! Told them the specials for the night, was nice to them and even showed them the special Valentine’s Day dessert tray! For us, none of that. Didn’t even check up on us once and didn’t even refill the water. But she did that for every other table, EXCEPT us. If you’re a younger couple wanting a nice dinner out, I don’t recommend or at least hope you don’t have the same experience as us. She even took long to give us the check as we sat there with empty plates for a long time. The table runner had to tell her to get the check for us. We’ve never been treated like that ever. Will not be returning. I don’t understand how someone could act so rude to us and be nice to EVERYONE around us.

We had a party of 5 on Monday, 2/19/24. Server was wonderful, always smiling, making sure we had everything we needed. Appetizers for the 5 of us included shrimp cocktail, crabcake, clams, calamari and a pear salad. Entrees included twin lobster tails, salmon, scallops, ny strip steak and ahi tuna. Dessert was creme brulee. Everything was delicious, thank you for a happy night. Ellen C.

The food was delicious and ample enough to satisfy my 2XL stomach. The staff were personable and professional which made our dining experience that much more enjoyable. Their menu has a nice variety of food and there's something for most budgets. I will be dining there again and I would definitely recommend it to others.

Service was absolutely terrible. The food was amazing but the waitress ruined the entire thing. The fact that I feel inclined to write reviews about that should say enough. She was rude to us from the start. Never introduced herself, had an attitude and spoke down to us, openly treated us differently than everyone else. Never came back to check on us, never once filled waters (after looking at us MULTIPLE TIMES and we had empty glasses), was friendly to everyone else but US. never even checked on us after food was out, showed everyone else the Valentine's Day dessert tray but us, told everyone the daily special but us. Don't know what her issue was from the beginning, but absolutely terrible. Horrible girl

Food was great, nothing bad to say there. However our server was terrible. I went there on a Valentine's Day date and experienced the worst service I've ever had. She was rude the entire time while disappearing after our food/drink order was taken. She did not even tell us her name while also not mentioning any of the specials or dessert they had to offer that night. While this would be less of an issue if everyone was treated this way, my date and I were the only ones subjected to her terrible attitude. We were one of the younger couples there and were treated as if we were an inconvenience the entire time.
