I used to be a server at Bennigan's and recently quit. Bennigan's shamelessly promotes their "happy hour" two for one domestic drafts.
Here comes atlittle beer math... A pint glass of domestic beer sold at full price is 20 oz. During happy hour you get two mugs of the same beer, but guess how many ounces are in the mugs? 10 oz.in other words you are buying the same amount of beer for the same price. The only difference is that you are getting it in two seperate mugs.
Also, one of Bennigan's main dishes is their Asiago Pasta. This is really dusgusting so prepair yourself. The pasta is pre-portioned and then microwaved in plastic bags for three minutes. Then it is mixed with cheese and microwaved again in a plastic container. The problem with this is that they use THE SAME CONTAINER EVERY TIME. Making about fifty layers of micowaved cheese by the end of the night.
Another wonderful thing about bennigans is their infamous fajitas and chicken quesas. They advertise "spicy fajita chicken" and "high quality steak". The chicken and flank steak are baked on a giant pan in an oven the night before. They sit in a refrigerator over night and are microwaved to order, chopped up by some of the greasiest cooks you have ever seen, and drowned in cajun seasoning before sitting in a food window for ten minutes with a heat lamp that hasn't working in years.
All the money generated by the store is concentrated in corporate paychecks and manager bonuses. There are two people that work in the kitchen that have been paid minimum wage for more than the five years that they have worked there. One is mentally handicapped and one is deaf. These people cannot stand up for themselves and so Bennigans shamelessly walks all over them.
By eating at Bennigan's you promote the kind of corporate greed that our proud country is trying to stomp out. Do not eat there.
