Drum roll…
The Benjamin, an American, French-inspired restaurant and bar, is planning to open to the public at 20 West Lane on June 6, 2023!
Located in the former home of Bernard’s and Sarah’s Wine Bar, the new restaurant is owned by seasoned restaurateurs Dave Studwell and Rob Moss of Washington Prime; and B.J. Lawless, of BJ Ryan’s Restaurant Group, all in Norwalk.
With a rustic and modern farmhouse vibe oozing with charm, the upscale restaurant boasts a bar on the first floor where patrons can dine or enjoy a cocktail, as well as a large dining area on both floors.
The Benjamin combines the best of American and French cuisine fittingly named the great Benjamin Franklin.
A website and additional details coming soon!
BTW: the building behind the restaurant, where Bernard and Sarah called "home" is being turned into event space. More to come on that tool
