The Original Fast Food - Digital City; A big crowd at a restaurant is always a good sign, and since 1958 there has been a steady stream of customers coming through the doors of this U Street landmark. - suggest change
RoadFood.com Review - RoadFood.com, Michael Stern, 25 September 2002; There on the right was the griddle, lined up with ravishing hot dogs and half-smoke sausages, sizzling hot and ready to be bunned, dressed, and topped with chili. - suggest change

Good to the last Bite!
Ben's has been a part of my life experience. I grew up and went to school in the area. Eventhough I now live in a different area of DC, from time to time I will visit Ben's on my lunch hour, make a date with a friend, catch the subway, drive -- everything but parachute out a plane (only because the traffic might run me down). Thank's Ben's for being a landmark in the city. Please keep it that way. You are thought of more than you know.    [17 Apr 2003 10:58:40]
