Our waiter Ty was exceptional. The entire staff goes above and beyond with service. We were there for our anniversary and one of our desserts was free. My husband had the pork chop and said it was the best one he's ever had. I had their barrmundi and it was the best I ever had. You will not be disappointed coming here, go now!

This was our second time here in the last month. Jordan, who was our bartender the first time remembered exactly what we had to drink a month ago!!! She is so nice and professional The Henry should be proud to have her as an ambassador! The first time was for brunch and it was amazing (the quiche is awesome!). This time was for lunch and it did not disappoint! The short rib ravioli and the club sandwich were both excellent! We can't wait to come back!
