After graduating from Montreal University (Quebec, Canada), I embarked on an unexpected journey, leaving my hometown in my old Chevy Blazer. Little did I know that this journey would mark the beginning of a permanent transition across borders. It was an adventure like no other. With just $500 in my pocket, I traveled through twenty-eight states, meeting
remarkable individuals who would play pivotal roles in
shaping the business I cherish today.

From working in hole-in-the-wall diners to executive kitchens, and traveling to prestigious places like Le Jules Verne on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, my passion for delicious food
blossomed into a love for life’s simple pleasures that I felt
everyone should experience.

Why has it become so difficult to find vibrant restaurants where you can enjoy kind service and simple, affordable,
really good food? Questions like these inspired the creation of Bennies.

At Bennies, we embrace bright colors, create an inviting
environment, and our employees are trained to harness the power of kindness. We use high-quality ingredients,
thoughtfully combined, to create flavorful and carefully
presented dishes.

Why does the restaurant industry have a reputation for being such hard work for such little financial reward? This question also inspired Bennies. We operate a simple, zero-waste open kitchen that excludes fryers and hood systems. Our menu features freshly made, in-house dishes designed to inspire, without the need for executive-level culinary expertise.

We invite you to Bennies. Come, sit down, and relax. Feel free to strike up a conversation with your neighbor or enjoy a quiet moment with your newspaper. We know you’ll probably order your usual—what keeps you coming back at least twice a week—but just once, venture out and try something new! Experience delicious food; that’s what we’re here for.

Thank you for allowing us to do what we love.

From all of us at Bennies
