    Food is great, service great and patio nice. Would be nice to add comments onto a reservation. When coming with children, for instance, so we’re not seated in the noisy bar area.

    Henry's is a whole vibe! The Patti Payne Trio playing live was amazing! You can't ask for a more intimate jazz club experience. The service was also top notch. Thanks to Alison for taking good care of us at the table. The prime rib was juicy, tender, mouth-watering. Accompanying Mashed potatoes and wedge salad were also tasty. And the chocolate cake paired with red wine, with Patti Payne and her band making magical music right next to our table? Heavenly!

    Everything was great except for the noise level was very loud and it was hard to carry on conversations without yelling at each other. Service and food were excellent.
