Benham’s Restaurant brings back dinner service

Benham’s Restaurant, 209 Warren St. just south of downtown Dayton, will resume serving dinners to the public Thursday through Saturday nights through February and perhaps beyond, co-owner Bill Howser said Monday, Feb. 9.

The restaurant will resume dinner service Thursday, Feb. 12 and will be open the rest of Valentine’s Day weekend and then Thursday through Saturday through at least the rest of the month,Howser said. Dinner hours are 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Benham’s continues to be open for lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday through Friday.

The restaurant ceased dinner service in mid-2007, but Howser said customer demand and a strong Restaurant Week response the last two weekends helped persuade him to restore dinner service. Benham’s has lowered prices on appetizers and entrees, and the price of an entree now includes dessert, Howser said. For example, the 12-ounce, bone-in strip steak, which was a popular item on the Restaurant Week menu, is $21.09 on the new menu, and includes choice of Chocolate Pudding Cake or Creme Brulee.
