Benji's French Basque Restaurant

We have eaten here in the past and we have always enjoyed it. This past weekend we decided we won't return. The shrimp dinner was simply 5 of the small frozen breaded shrimp (can be bought for $1.99 in the $0.99 cent store) horrible. Certainly wasn't like the picture posted here. After I took the oily bread off they were the size of my thumbnail. Fries were super oily, soup without more than a few small clams. I understand it was towards the end of the evening but better to say we are out than to serve that.

This was my first “basque restaurant” experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Every course was delicious. My entrée was the lamb kebabs. Anytime I see lamb on the menu I am tempted to order it and this was a solid choice for sure. The service here was amazing thank you again. Wish I had enough room for dessert.

Some of the food was good, (like the soup), but the spaghetti was very mushy and overcooked. I also didn't like the green beans with tomato sauce. But the pickled tongue was delicious! The waiter wouldn't split the check (policy)which really upset one of our party. I doubt if we'll be back.
