Benji's offers a traditional Basque homestyle feast. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The food is good, tasty, and plentiful. The marinated tongue was great, the soup, salsa and bean combo delightful. You know Basque style, you have to pace yourself for the main entry. I had oxtail stew, almost as good as my wife's.
