About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Great for happy hour
  • Lively
In every city, there is a natural gathering spot for city folk and neighborhood people in the know. This place in Saint Paul is know as Bennett's Chop & Railhouse. Located on West Seventh & Victoria, it is the perfect meeting place of uptown and downtown, of quiet neighborhood and big city lights.

It's called a chophouse because it specializes in a casual steakhouse atmosphere with top-of-the-line cuts of the finest meats. It is a Rail-house because it is on the old railroad line serving the city and rail drinks (as well as top brands) are served in the convivial atmosphere of the horseshoe bar.

And of course Bennett's is Bennett's because owners Joe and Meghan Bennett ensure that welcoming hospitality is always served. They have taken their decades of experiences with leading hospitality brands and translated it into an intimate venue where you're not only a customer, but more importantly, a welcome guest.

    We had a group of 11 and our server was great and accommodating. Loved that we could get reservations on a Wild game day! Great place.

    Our go-to whenever we have the opportunity to visit St Paul. Everyone is so welcoming and the service is top notch. Love the neighborhood feel! Once we had to wait for a table and the owner bought us a drink. I can’t say enough good things about this place. Oh and the food is unbelievable. They have the best spinach artichoke dip, burgers and steaks just to mention a few times we have had the chance to try. The homemade carrot cake is unmatched also. Just love everything about this place!!!!!

    Said they didn't have our reservations. We checked them and we did. They blamed us saying we probably reserved at the wrong location, but we didn't.

    We waited about an hour for our food after ordering. The mashed potatoes were cold; didn’t even melt the dollop of butter placed on top. Not worth the money.

    From the outside, Bennetts is very unassuming. It looks like a corner neighborhood bar, which it is, but inside it has everything you would get from a more elite restaurant. First of all, the service we had last night was spectacular! Jessica was friendly, helpful, accommodating and efficient. The drinks were good, the ribs were fantastic and served with a salad of sliced Brussels sprouts? Delicious! White tablecloths are a nice touch. The menu is huge and on most Mondays they have half price apps and martinis. They do not have the deal on event nights. They have a bus to drive concert or sporting events attendees to the Xcel. Great value and a fun evening. I highly recommend!

    An amazing old line steakhouse. Great staff. When full, it can be a bit noisy. Very good food. A neighborhood charmer.
