    I can’t get enough of this place at all. Great food, Great environment, Great Everything. I will admit I went 2-13-25 and my food was amazing until I got my southern fried chicken and it was too salty. BUT, they brought out another fresh order quickly, and it was perfect. This place is literally perfect!

    The Henry is a great spot for a delicious meal and a fun night out. The atmosphere is lively and inviting, and the service is top-notch. The food is absolutely amazing. I've been here several times, and I've never been disappointed. The jalapeno margarita is to die for, and the Korean Prime Skirt Steak is one of the best steaks I've ever had. The flourless chocolate brownie is also a must-try. Overall, I highly recommend The Henry. It's a great place to celebrate a special occasion or just enjoy a night out with friends. Here are some additional things to note: * The Henry is located in the heart of Dallas, so it's easy to get to by car or public transportation. * The restaurant has a large outdoor patio, which is perfect for enjoying the warm weather. * The Henry is open for lunch, dinner, and late-night dining. I hope this review helps you decide whether or not to check out The Henry. If you're looking for a great dining experience in Dallas, I highly recommend it!

    My date and I had a reservation for 7:15pm. Upon arrival valley parked our vehicle and we were greeted at the door with a “ranch water” cocktail. We then took the elevator up to the restaurant and were promptly escorted to our table. We started off with a bottle of Pinot Noir for drinks and of course servers kept us hydrated with water throughout our dinner and made sure we were well taken care of. For appetizers we had the Chicken Kaarage (GF) and Salmon Crudo. For our main meals we ordered the Salmon Steak and Duck Leg Confit and shared a flight of sides including the roasted mushrooms, triple cooked fries, and Brussel Sprouts! The food was amazing and so was the service. Everything was delicious and prepared in a timely manner. Great experience if you’re are new to the Dallas area wanting to explore and see beautiful views of the city.
