What People Are Saying About Lounge at Benjy's

The Scene – This low-key upstairs lounge complements the bustling restaurant below. Passing through thick strands of silver beads that hang over the entrance, patrons discover a world unto itself. Bamboo-ribbed paper lanterns, tropical plants and an impressive array of retro couches and ottomans accentuate the space-age, bachelor-pad ambience. Need a smoke? The patio offers a pleasant view of the Villages' tree-lined streets. – – The Draw – In the evening, happy hour patrons and those waiting for a table downstairs mingle as they enjoy generous drink specials.

The White Pizza is a must try!
by Dalaimama69 at Citysearch
The perfect place to start or end an evening in Rice Village. All the food is good but my personal favorite is the White Pizza. Good food, good ambiance.
- Pros: Next door to Kelvin Arms!
- Cons: None I can think of at the moment
sorry place

Binjy's over in Rice Village is nice and good. First of all they don't serve Heniken, wat the hell going on. Heniken is a upscale beer, my flavorite beer, ANTHONY BOUDAIN flavorite beer. But wat got to me the most was that they serve a BOWL OF SOUP WITH RIBEYE, and we order it. In vietnamese, this is call PHO and cost 3 to 5 buck at almost every vietnamese restaurant. Well Benjy thought they was so smart to copy something so simply and sell it for 22 buck and made it taste worse. I hope they realize that some American and all asian eat pho. Did Benjy think they invented that and think their customer is stupid. Get rid of the dumb popcorn. Alot of money went to this place, and I think alot of unique ideas should too. But hey how can u stay away when u see all the nice cars and ppl. Lifestyle of the rich and not so famous. hahhahaha
- Pros: girls
- Cons: bad place
Best White Pizza in Houston!

I LOVE Benjy's for the food, music and the fact that it's next door to the Kelvin Arm's! I always take out of town visitors to the Village for this little Oasis which is one of the few places you can actually walk in Houston without becoming a hood ornament! Good people in both establishments and one of the few parking lots where you won't get towed in Rice Village. Interesting mix of people from all over and you never know who you might run into.
- Pros: great atmosphere, food and drinks, great location
- Cons: closes early
