Ate at the cool bar and service was incredible. Fried fish was perfect. Waitress recommended the fish sandwich since the fish entree was a lot of fish. Fish sandwich still had more fish than I could eat. Cole slaw made there was to die for.

Nice late night spot! Drinks and wings were good. Will not order the spinach dip again. It was not spinach. It was CABBAGE! Just wasn't right lol but I'd def go back. Loved the atmosphere and that it's open late!

We stopped at Henry's Restaurant for dinner and we had a great time. The server was friendly and able to answer questions and make recommendations. The food was hot and made to order. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting and offers plenty of seating. Parking can be a challenge when it is busy, but there is a large lot in the back.

Mallory was great and she deserves to know it! She was very upbeat and she remembered our orders perfectly, even without a notepad. Food and drinks were also good, and I loved the nostalgic atmosphere. Nostalgic in a good way, not an outdated way. Lol

Stopped for drinks after work before going to the Arena Dinner theatre (so we didn't eat here). All of us liked our drinks. Several people enjoyed trying some new or different beers. If you haven't been to Henry's you are missing out. It's one of the neatest old bars in town. The "bar" is incredible - see pics! Our service was very good. The last time we were here was probably 15 years ago and I'd forgotten how wonderful it is! We will be back and try some food next time.

Henry’s has never let me down. The bartenders and staff are THE BEST. The food is great. The drinks are basic standards. I can’t tell you how many good times I’ve had here. Thanks, Henry’s!

I ran into a friend at the bar rail and he had already ordered the Henry's fish and chips, which has four breaded pieces of pollock with fries. The breading on them looked fantastic and he couldn't eat the whole thing. It's definitely something that could be shared. I ended up with the grilled yellowfin tuna sandwich. It was prepared medium rare, which, to me is the only way to enjoy a nice cut like this. It came out on toasted bread, with the same fantastic hot fries that were on the other plate. The crowd was decent, and the building looked unchanged, which is fantastic for a business like this. It's a good place to just pop in for a drink, bring a date, or bring a small group for a meal. The menu has changed of course. When I go back, what should I try next time? #onforkstoforks #foodie #yellowfintuna

Has the fish dinner and it was delicious. Entree’s were generous portions. Spicy margarita was the perfect blend of heat. Definitely going back to try something else!
