Our venues showcase generous, shareable plates crafted with the freshest seasonal ingredients, all set against warm, nostalgic atmospheres reminiscent of carefree backyard gatherings with friends and loved ones. Imagine your guests relaxing under string lights, sharing stories over expertly prepared dishes, and creating memories that last long after the evening ends.

Choose Your Perfect Location

Santa Ana

Our secluded Private Dining Room (PDR) provides an intimate, private escape – ideal for groups up to 40 seated or 50 cocktail-style. For larger celebrations, we can also accommodate partial or full buyouts of our Main Outdoor Dining Area (up to 70 seated), and Pergola-Covered Back Patio (up to 40 seated). All options are subject to availability and management approval.

Fullerton

Our vibrant downtown location features a lush, tree-filled outdoor area (up to 150 seated) paired with a cozy indoor space (up to 30 seated). Smaller groups (<50) can enjoy semi-private setups in either area, and larger parties can reserve a complete buy-out of both indoor and outdoor spaces.

Benchmark is open Wednesday through Sunday. We’re happy to discuss private events on Mondays or Tuesdays with appropriate contingencies.
