    This was my first time at The Henry. The space is very chic and inviting, the staff is very attentive and knowledgeable, and the food is pretty good for the price. We had the guacamole as an appetizer. It was very good, but the chips were very greasy. Our server offered to get us fresh chips, but given they looked like they just came out of the fryer we declined. They were out of ahi tuna, which was a bit surprising since they also serve dinner and ahi is featured on at least two menu items. The roasted turkey French dip and truffle fries are really good. Also the kale coleslaw. Our server Kaylie was amazing and we will definitely request her the next time we dine there. It would be great if they could validate parking, but I understand given how pricey it is. Overall a great lunch. Thank you to The Henry staff!

    January work dinner for 6 last minute. Place was half empty. Great for us. Service was perfect. Food was solid. Ambiance was lively (music, not people). I don't know if I'd go when it's busy because it looks like it would get mobbed by tourists. Outdoor champagne patio? Come on!? But in January on a weekday? All day long! Do it!
