As you walk in the glass doors of Benne's Steakhouse in downtown Clarksville you immediately feel the ambiance of the restaurant. I would not mind if they did away with the shabby display case for their pastries. Soon after you enter are greeted by friendly staff and as you walk into the main dining room the bare brick walls lend a warm inviting feel but the high ceilings and tasteful decor quickly bring you into a cozy upscale dinning experience. My wife and I, who were dinning for our anniversary, were quickly greeted by our friendly server. Our food came out on pace, which is very important to me, and hot, but the service was not quite "fine dinning". We both had steak and they were both cooked perfectly. It was certainly some of the best steak in the city. All in all Benne's offers a nice upper class casual dinning experience at a upper moderate price. Defiantly a great date spot.
