Evermore proves
unique for dining experience
Benny's Bar and Grill invites you to experience Evermore
Evermore businesses and residents take
notice, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Benny’s Bar &
Grill “is worth a drive to Gwinnett no matter where you live.”
Centrally located in the heart of the Evermore Business District,
Benny’s is a unique and enjoyable dining experience.
Benny’s Bar and
Grill opened in August of 2007 with enthusiastic reviews.
Establishing in the location formerly occupied by the Mellow
Mushroom on U.S. 78, owner Mike Miller was unaware of Evermore’s
pending improvements and enhancements when he signed the lease.
Mike strongly advocated, “Gwinnett was in need of a fine dining
establishment, and the Snellville area was where I wanted my
restaurant.” Now that Mike is in-the-know about Evermore’s plans, he
is more than pleased and clearly understands how his restaurant will
benefit.
Mike has no
indication that Highway 78 construction is impeding his business and
supports the means to reach the end result. Mike firmly believes
that when the look of an area is improved, the visual stimulation
will benefit all area businesses and neighborhoods. Mike advises,
“I am familiar with studies that demonstrate traffic patterns and
when related to an area that is aesthetically pleasing, drivers do
slow down”. “If highway travelers are driving slower, the chances
of capturing their attention to my business’s sign is increased”.
“Presentation is important and more businesses will want to
establish here”, added Mike.
Mike Miller has
been in the restaurant business for most of his adult life. He has
managed several fine dining restaurants in Midtown. When coming up
through the ranks, Mike focused his attention on learning both
front-of-house and back-of-house operations in preparation for the
future restaurant that he always planned to own. When the former
Mellow Mushroom facility became available, Mike knew immediately
that if a full service kitchen could be accommodated, it was the
place for him.
Mike proudly
says, “we are good at what we do, and it just takes time to become
known”. “People are confused as they drive by and assume we are
normal and everyday casual dining, but we are far from it”
distinguishes Mike. Mike believes that the area is starved for
great cuisine, and that Benny’s Bar & Grill is just what Evermore
needs. “People who care about dining and good food will appreciate
it,” continues Mike. “We make it an experience - not just a meal;
our menu speaks for itself.”
Benny’s Bar and
Grill offers a wide variety of menu items and doesn’t conform to one
particular genre. If edibles such as Pecan Steak Salads, Chipotle
Shrimp Wraps, Fried Oyster or Shrimp Po-Boys and Stuffed Green
Peppers strike your fancy, then Benny’s is sure to top your list of
favorites. The menu offers something for everyone’s particular
taste. “When you are spending your hard earned money on dining out,
you should encounter a pleasant atmosphere, personable pampering,
and great cuisine”. “It should be an uplifting experience and the
customer should remember it fondly”, boasts Mike.
Mike relayed that
he has fielded several customer inquiries as to if there will be an
accessible break in the median favorable to his restaurant. Mike’s
responds, “I don’t know specifically and if there is no provisional
turn, it isn’t the end of the world.” “Everyone will adapt to the
changes, and the overall benefit will help this area tap into its
true potential.”
David Stedman,
Economic Development Manager for the Evermore CID says, “This is the real deal. It's a
special place that lets you experience the flavor of New Orleans
without the long drive. As they say in Louisiana, 'Laissez les bon
temps rouler'. My mother and grandmother were from Mississippi and
Louisiana, so I was raised on authentic Cajun and Creole dishes. And
when it comes to that kind of food, I'm naturally very picky.
Benny's delivers just the right blend of seasoning and spice, using
the freshest ingredients. Everything from the bread to the
main course is truly delicious."
Benny’s Bar &
Grill is another viable business that invites everyone to
“EXPERIENCE EVERMORE”!
