Benson's Eating & Drinking Emporium — Restaurant in Walker

Had to give 1 star but should really be ZERO stars!!!! On Saturday October 14th we stopped in to get some lunch. We entered and seated ourselves. It was not crazy busy, plenty of tables to be had. It was 15 minutes before we were acknowledged and brought menus. After another 5 minutes another server came to our table and asked what we wanted to order. We replied that we just were given menus so we need a moment but asked for ice waters. She returned with our water and we ordered a bacon cheeseburger and a chicken bacon wrap, 35 minutes later our order arrived. Let's just say, the fries were good. The burger was sub par, no real flavor and the bacon was fatty and rubbery. The chicken and bacon in the wrap was disgusting! The very first bite was mushy,soft & fatty piece of chicken and the bacon was also fatty, I could squish it easily it was so fatty- probably not really chicken but pressed pieces of scraps made to look like pieces of chicken. I took all the "meat" out of the wrap and discarded onto the tray it arrived on. The chicken was similar to the gross pieces you can buy out of the freezer at Walmart and heat up to put in something. The chicken and bacon must be the lowest grade of junk this establishment purchases. The server eventually brought our bill (which didn't make much sense when comparing to the menu as to how it was presented price wise) but whatever at that point. She never brought water refills or asked how the meal was even though she looked at the tray with the nasty chicken and bacon on it. We told the chicken was disgusting and that the management should be notified about this and stop using it. She said she'd mention it but really didn't seem to care, which we get as she just works there, it's not really her problem. We paid the bill and left. We will not make the mistake to ever spend our money here again. For those writing raving reviews- either you're catching them on a good day with better food choices/product, your standards aren't very high to begin with or the choice for establishments are so low grade around there that people are convincing themselves its good food when it really isnt. Even a dog wouldn't eat that chicken or bacon. Just being honest, nothing personal. More people need to do the same so others can make a fair decision to eat at these establishments and spend their hard earned money there. Skip going here, choices aren't great in Walker but anything would be better than...

I don't leave a lot of reviews but felt obligated on this one because of having been dismissed by the manager, I knew nothing would get done about it. For being short staffed, the server was great and was working hard and the food was great. My reluctance to give a higher rating was because of the attitude of the manager.

There is a small section of about six tables up a ramp that we sat at and there is a large fish tank up there, probably about five feet long. There is disgusting grime from months of neglect all along the edges, and dead fish everywhere being bobbed around the tank from the filtration bubbles. There is a giant clump of decomposing fish that floats around the top on the side with pieces of flesh hanging around and floating. The sad part is that there are a few larger fish still alive.

The place was packed, and every group at every table in that section was staring at it and commenting on how disgusting it was. There was a woman who appeared to have special needs that was actually traumatized by it and would not stop talking about it.

When we brought it up to the manager, she was very dismissive. She kept saying that she had to get the boys up there to clean it and she's heard complaints already. My mom mentioned that there were dead fish everywhere and she said something along the lines of, "oh really? I haven't been up there in a while." Really?! Its 15 feet from your front counter, and I guarantee they didn't die today, looks to be at least a week or two of decomposition. Also, maybe don't be so dismissive of a trio that spent almost $80.

Owning a fish tank comes with a responsibility and on top of that, so does managing a restaurant. If you haven't been able to get that cleaned because of other obligations, fine, but you need to get...

This is the absolute WORST restaurant experience of my life. The wait staff was horrible and he never even checked back after we waited over 45 minutes for our food. We had to search him out for a check and even then, he clearly didn't want to help us.

The food was horrendous. The pizza was floppy, undercooked, and the crust made up at least 40% of the entire pizza. We ordered the stuffed crust and all they did was shove a pre-packaged cheese stick into a massive mound of dough and cooked into until it would be considered edible. They charged over $25 for this garbage. If that wasn't bad enough, we all left with stomach aches after eating 2 pieces.

My sister, who ordered the roast beef, had to pick out the raw pieces of beef to avoid getting herself sick. Moreover, she ordered a side of onion rings and received THREE onion rings for $3. That is absolutely ridiculous.

We asked to see a manager over the horrible service and inedible food and the best she did was offer us a goodnight. The place does not care about service, food, or rectifying their mistakes. Avoid this place like the plague as you're just as likely to get sick from the food as you are to pay a premium for the...
