Editorial Review for Benny's Restaurante y Tequila Bar – by Wendy Wall

In Short
There's always a crowd at this loud, lively spot. Waits are short, though, with three large rooms and an enclosed patio available. Swift service gets guests in and out; sometimes food arrives within five minutes of ordering. The place is popular for a reason: The classic Mexican fare tastes good, comes in large portions and doesn't hurt the bank account. Don't forget the margaritas and Mexican beers.

How this joint remains in business is beyond me. I like their chips and salsa and the frozen margaritas are good, but the food is disgusting. One of my friends refuses to even have drinks there. I will only go for drinks and chips.

jeez - I've been going to Benny's since the old days when he was at the Candlelight. Used to love his food but sadly I don't think even Benny has tasted it lately. This is about at good as Casa Bonita - blah, blah, blah. Why they continue to pack 'em in is beyond me. I'll never darken their door again. Denver is full of fantastic Mexican cuisine - this is the bottom of the lot.
