We love to eat here and the food is delicious, but it is a little pricy to make it a regular dinner spot. We opt for lunch as its much more affordable. Great salads - something for everyone. Main courses are nothing short of great. Try the quiche! More

I like the atmosphere, the cleanliness of the restaurant and the friendly staff. the food is awesome, hot foods are hot and cold foods are cold. The salads are amazing and refreshing. The soups are tremendously tasteful and hot. The breads are good, tasty and fluffy. More

Benson's Vinaigrettes catered our office Christmas dinner this year and I am extremely happy with everything! The food was amazing, everything was prepared perfectly and set up in our office by Benson's staff. The prices were very reasonable, especially for the quality of food received. I called several times with questions, each time I was greeted with a pleasant person... More

If you want food fast, but don't want fast food, this is the place. The chef makes a few entrees each day and that's what they serve. There are always unique salads along with the more traditional sides to choose from. This place is above average, but you can't consistently call it very good, so I'm kind of stuck. The... More

I work nearby this restaurant, so when it opened a few years ago, it was a good place to go for lunch. It has always been a little expensive, but, four years ago, the adage applied, "you get what you pay for." Now for some reason, whenever I have gone here recently I seldom discover that I have received the... More

I took my mother to Vinaigrettes for an early dinner on Saturday. Coworkers had told me that it was good, and I had read other reviews saying how great the food was. I gathered from the plastic silverware comment elsewhere that it was going to be cafeteria style, but I was not prepared for what we encountered. Just driving up... More

Benson's Vinaigrettes is hands down the best place to eat in Mid-Michigan. Okay, it's kind of cafeteria style (although the decor is nice). But the changing gourmet menus, the huge portions and the awesome food keep bringing my husband and myself back for more! Stuffed chicken, prime rib, salmon... the list goes on. A tad pricier than a fast food... More
