Benny's Bistro

3/12/2025. Today we ventured out to a highly recommended Benny’s Bistro, just a few blocks from downtown Helena. The building and decor is very tasteful with an Art Deco feel. The menu is a mixture of soups, salads, and light sandwiches with many vegetarian, gluten free, and vegan options. I ordered the ham and cheese panini with chip and house slaw. I didn’t care for the slaw at all, but I offered it to Otto and he loved it. The panini, made on their house-made bread was excellent. The “chips” (as they call them) are really more like tortilla strips. Otto ordered the Montana Rancher roast beef cold sandwich and he loved it. This is definitely not the place for meat-loving, tator tot eating cowboys, but I would bring my wife here for an upscale date night. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had the Thai Green Curry Bowl. It was mm, mm delicious. I was a bit disappointed though that they advertise gluten-free on their window but didn't have any gluten-free bread. To make my meal GF, I received no bread.
