Benucci’s is a locally owned version of chain Italian restaurants like the Olive Garden. The value is decent, the food strongly flavored and fairly good. It’s the kind of place that, if you like, you’re likely to return to again and again. If you’re considering the Olive Garden or the Macaroni Grill, try Benucci’s instead; you’ll keep your money in the local economy.

Food was great, atmosphere was great. Much better value than other restaurants in the area. Service was quick, but not rushed. Great experience.

Awful service and chicken came uncooked. They offered to pay for the one dish. I sent a letter to the owner and never received a response. I have been two times before this and I was not impressed. The menu is not interesting. I do not recommend this restaurant.

My family went to Benucci's for a family birthday dinner last night. We have been there four or five times before and enjoyed the food. They have remodeled since we were there and it was pleasant. But I really feel we got worked over last night. Perhaps there is new management? We ordered two bottles of red wine (which was priced 4 times the retail cost- but we were celebrating...so we ordered it anyway) and were given short squat vermouth glasses to drink from! The waitress said that was what they use now! Hard to believe an Italian restaurant does not have the proper glassware for chilled wine! Then we sat for 20 minutes after we ordered and had to ask for bread after the salad was served. There were no bread plates and we had to ask for them. The House Salad which we paid $4.00 extra for, consisted of one cherry tomato cut in half and some limp lettuce with a few thin onion rings. Pathetic. The main entree was good, but I was shocked at the change in serving size! They used to serve their pasta entrees in large bowls and I always had some to take home. Now there was about a cup of pasta on a small plate with scant toppings. My husband was still hungry after dinner. We will never go back there. We felt totally ripped off.
