7/16/22 came for dinner at 5:50 P.M. and there was no crowd at all. Things started moving a shaking shortly thereafter, though... (closer to 6:30 P.M.). The dinner that my dinner guest and I ate was delicious!!! 1. Lamb pops: FANTASTIC! GET YOU SOME! 2.Shrimp and corn bisque: Pass it up. Get another order of lamb chops instead ???????? 3. Red beans and rice with fried chicken(fried chicken tenders): ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! The chciken tenders must have beenarinating for a while in some good seasoningbecause they really are great--condiments like ketchup are really not needed. The red beans and rice has chicken pieces cookedin it. 4. Stuffed redfish: fish was great--the stuffing? Not too tasty. 5. Green beans!!! 5/5 6. Mashed potatoes: 5/5!! I willbe back soon to try more items! 3 stars for breakfast 12/05/21 came in for the first time approximately at 10:30 The HostessMs. Alyssa was very cordial and seated us quickly. The ambiance of the place was quiet/pleasant. It was weird that this part ofthe hotel is not as spectacular as the other areas of the hotel. As far as the food? For brunch...the grits ordered wereDELICIOULSY CHEESY AND BUTTERY! The French Toast entree came out cold and the toast was burnt. This was disappointing. Whyserve someone an order that is clearly visible of being toasted too much/burnt? Too pricy for low quality. 5/5 stars for thecustomer service. This place is 1-and-done for me. Read more
Great brunch menu. Glad we called ahead for a reservation since they had several large parties on a Sunday. Service was good and... we will be back again in the future. Read more

Did a little research via reviews prior to visiting with my wife for the first time, so I kind of knew what to expect. The menu... had changed up quite of bit from what was online and that was a little disappointing because we had kind of already picked outwhat we were going to order; but things happen. So we get there and get seated right away. We did call earlier that afternoonand knew that there was going to be a large party of 30 that was going to be there around 6:00 so we were prepared for that aswell. It is very pretty inside and knowing that the Bentley Hotel has over 100 years of history, it fit right in to what we hadexpected. Our waitress was very nice, knowledgeable and suggestive about things on the menu; so that was nice since things hadchange. We were prepared to eat a good bit and spend a nice dime; we ordered appetizers and the meal. It took nearly an hour toget the appetizer but I did mention we were behind a large party and we were fine. My wife was addressed shortly thereafterabout them running out of her main dish which was a let down because there was a lot of thought and consideration that went into that selection but she made another pick and it proved to be a very nice selection. She ordered the salmon on a bed of garlicmashed potatoes and I had the ribeye with mac and cheese. Hers looked like it came out of a magazine and she said that it waswonderful. My steak was cooked medium and had a great flavor. The mac and cheese was not what I had expected and the bowtiepasta was under cooked and had no flavor. The crab cakes were big and tasted great; too much mustard sauce so I wished I wouldhave gotten it on the side. The spinach and artichoke dip was excellent. So over all it gets a 4-4.5 stars in my opinion. Iwould go back for sure Read more
FOOD- 0stars The food here was absolutely TERRIBLE. We are not picky people and understand restaurant service but the food was... quite literally inedible. We had to send it back. Our server was nice and she was doing her best but everything was coming outslow and so bad that we didn?t even try to order more. We read really good reviews so we were expecting it to be that way but wewere so disappointed and left hungry & headed to get more food. Read more
