I have been eating at Benji's for many years. This Basque food has an upscale French influence that may be the reason that the other reviews didn't score it as high. I have always (since twenty years ago when they were on Union?) received awesome service and wonderful food. The lettuce is mixed (not your typical Basque iceberg) and the sauces are amazing! Don't forget to order a souffle (they are the ending to a perfect meal!). Servers remind me of the French (if you annoy them you'll be ignored - but if you work with them - they'll come through for you - and the food is worth it! I'll be taking my staff from Los Angeles here this June for an "end of the year" celebration - it's worth the drive!
