Benjy's is a restaurant serving American cuisine in Houston, in the U.S. state of Texas.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The restaurant was established by Benjy Levit in 1985.[3][4] Benjy's closed in 2020, on a temporary basis, during the COVID-19 pandemic.[5][6]

Reception

[edit]

In Condé Nast Traveler' 2019 list of the city's 23 best restaurants, Charu Suri and Diane Oates wrote: "Here's the thing about Benjy's: Everyone will tell you it's their favorite restaurant—all for entirely different reasons. The brunch bunch will swear up and down that the French toast is the city's best hangover cure; the dinner crowd will point to the caramelized scallops as a near-religious experience. No one can agree on which dish—or even which meal—is best here, and that's what makes this place such a hit."[7]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
