Denver Reviews of Ben’s Fast Food
“This was by far the best fast food I’ve ever had. Got the wagyu mixed bowl with lemon sauce and it was DIVINE! Could eat this for every meal. Legit, please order this! You won’t regret it and I’ll be crushed if this place goes out of business.”
“I am in Denver for a weekend trip and I found Ben's through DoorDash. Being someone with a potato allergy on top of having celiac disease, it is nearly impossible to find an affordable meal that is not home cooked. I ordered the Chicken Hearty Bowl with a Green Smoothie and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food for the price point. When I opened the box I thought the portion size of the chicken seemed small but after eating half of the meal, I felt very nourished (probably because I was eating real nutritious food.) The chicken was perfectly tender and the lemon thyme sauce had an amazing flavor. This was the first time in years I have been able to eat a satisfying meal under $20 with my dietary restrictions. I have never once felt called to write a food review, but this experience brought me a lot of hope for a food industry that has always been extremely difficult for me to navigate while still being affordable with my allergies. I just wanted to get on here and show my support because it is rare to stumble across a restaurant that I feel is whole heartedly interested in their customers well being both nutritionally and financially. I am excited to see this company grow!”
“Holy Smokes!!! This is the BEST food I've ever gotten on doordash and I've been ordering through here for years. High quality. THE BEST HOT SAUCE EVER. The slow Slow Roasted Pork Shoulder is phenomenal. Healthy, high quality food, at a FAIR PRICE. What!?!? I'm telling everyone about this place!!!”
“Ben, whoever you are, I love you. This was the most delicious, FRESH, flavorful, yummy, healthy bowl I've ever had. I'm actually obsessed. I was nervous about ordering food at 12:25 AM but I was on my way home from the airport and knew I had no food at home and I was starving and usually the only options when you order late is fast food. I am delighted to have discovered this place. I can't wait to try the other menu items.”
“My favorite place, and my fave foods! Chicken Hearty Bowl Green Smoothie.”
“Great, healthy food. Probably the most affordable I've seen. As far as the quality of ingredients and size of the bowl. I got the chicken bowl with a side of slow roasted chicken and it's amazing.”
“Been meaning to try this place for a while now and glad I did. I got the chicken mixed bowl and it was amazing - hearty portion, affordable (even through Door Dash) tasty and healthy. Tough to do all of those together.”
“I never review places from Doordash on their direct business page but I had to do it for Ben’s. Easily the best place I have ever ordered from on Doordash. WOW! Thank you for existing! Everything was delicious and I could eat that again any day!”
“Best food I've had in a very long time. Healthy, fresh, the pork was so tender. The sauces are amazing. I keep hearing good things about the chicken so I'm excited to try that next! Want to eat out but not gain weight? Ben's fast food is the answer!!!”
