Jack & Benny's

The Jack Buster and fresh squeezed OJ were both excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. It is also increasingly rare to see a real short order cook in action, but it still exists here.

Great place for Dad's 83rd birthday breakfast! Too often, this little gem slips my mind. We should all eat, shop and spend local! #jack&benny

I visited this Jack and Benny’s for the first time. We’re not local to Columbus and found them on Google. They had good reviews, so decided to check them out. We ordered a variety of items and none were at all what I would consider good. My son ordered biscuits and gravy. It came out a few minutes after the rest of the table (not a big deal), and the server joked about making it from scratch and that’s why it took a little longer, but then said “I’m just kidding - they’re frozen!” If your restaurant does nothing except breakfast food, why are your biscuits frozen? Moving on… the yogurt in the parfait tasted “off”, not sure how else to describe it. The pancakes? The blueberry pancakes were sour, the pecan ones were bland, the syrup was super thin and no matter how much I put on my pancake I could not taste it. Chocolate milk tasted watered down, looked like chocolate milk but no flavor. On a plus side, the French toast was pretty good. The restaurant itself is old. I expected that and actually looked forward to it. Typically, those old, kinda run down little hole in the walls have the best food. Sadly, this was not the case. And on top of that there is a difference between old/worn out and dirty. This place was both. It smelled old and dirty when you walked in, the bathroom was dirty, there was some type of old food or something on the basket for the creamers. Plus it was just very messy overall. We ate it, didn’t die, and will always remember to not visit again when we’re back in the area. Oh, and it took a long time for the server to get the check to us. I had high expectations for this restaurant, but left disappointed.

It's a good place to grab a bit of breakfast with a friend. It's about what you would expect out of any breakfast diner. Food came out pretty fast and we were met promptly with a waiter when we were seated. Big downside of this place is the low amount of seating. Granted they can only do so much with the small amount of space that they have so I can't really fault them for that. Expect to wait at least 15 minutes to get seated when you come here. The food itself was fine. About what I would expect from a breakfast diner and the prices were fair. I'd come back sometime maybe on a weekday when it's a little less busy. Nice little place with a good atmosphere though.
