   To us, the water tasted weird - very metallic. We point this out because we chose Bennethum's to celebrate completing a 43 mile backpacking trip and we were very thirsty - we couldn't drink our waters. That is our main complaint. All of our food was fantastic, though I thought the spinach was going to be incorporated into the shrimp scampi risotto. Instead, the spinach just came as a wilted lump on top of the risotto. Our ceasar salads, french onion soups were delicious. Our waitress Heather was much chattier with other tables than ours, but her service was quick. With the open table reservation we were seated as soon as we walked in to the restaurant.

    Fabulous staff and the food is outstanding. Our service was first rate. The meal courses were well spaced and no rush to finish anything before the next course arrived. The Korean BBQ Duck Breast was perfectly done, crispy and not dry. The lemon cheesecake with blueberry topping was not overpowering with the lemon. Just the perfect ending to an excellent meal.

    Evening with the family - very good but no longer exceptional- Even steak taco’s (always my favorite) was light on beef tenderloin and lacking normal robust flavor. We like the staff and always good for a night out. Just not the same level of extended menu, specials (all way too expensive), and inclusiveness. MB

    The prices have gone up considerably since the last time we visited. I don't know how often we'll be able to visit, unfortunately. Additionally, I was glad to see the "Texas Sheetcake Brownie" back, but it is not the sheetcake texture I remember. It was my very favorite dessert ANYWHERE, so I'm sad to see it changed.

    This is the consistently best restaurant in the Gaylord area, though there are others almost as good. They always have a wide range of choices on their menu, and I’d you want to have lighter fare, they have a wonderful happy hour with some menu items and drinks at half price.

    Impressive food presentation, deliciously executed!, Excellent service! I was surprised at how casual other patrons dressed, considering the price and that it's gourmet level dining. I guess I'm old school; if I'm going to a nice restaurant, I dress accordingly. In any event Bennethum's is on our list of " Must Stops" when we're in Gaylord!

    Disappointed. Last time I was there it was very good across the board. This time? Disappointed..in the food and in the service. I suppose they are having staffing issues but the food was just OK. For the price? Totally unacceptable. What did they do well? A great Manhattan. Hope they improve and I will go again but any repeat beyond that is to be determined by my next experience.

    I ordered a martini with a brand name- $9.50. I requested a blue cheese olive. They gave me one and charged a dollar for it. I have never been charged for any martini with a special olive. I have traveled many countries and most of the United State. Soured my opinion of the restaurant. It is expensive but good food and they rush you through your meal.

    We love celebrating our anniversary here every year (and come many other times too!) We usually have the Perch and Walleye but decided to try something different and went with Shrimp scampi which was very good. I have to have a Coconut Cloud martini because they are fabulous! And then, of course, we had to sample the Chocolate Cheesecake with Strawberries... You have to try that! Yum! Bennethums never disappoints!!!

    Truly exquisite, comfortable dining. We are from a metro area, but we have a cottage nearby. We come to Bennethum’s most every time that we visit Northern Michigan. Every meal has been wonderful. Every waitress has been warm and efficient. The owners are charming and welcoming. If you visit this restaurant, it will be one of your new favorites. JFC
