    I have eaten in many restaurants and a lot of steaks and lobster. This was absolutely the first time I have gotten both prepared to perfection. My wife and I both had the same meal and both raved about it's taste and quality. Our highest compliments to the chef! The service was excellent and we will definitely choose Hennen's again.

    Went there for our Anniversary dinner! Everything was great - the ambivalence, the table we ate at our waiter (Paul) and the food was great. We both had a Filet Mignon but my wife had the Filet Oscar. We would certainly eat here again when we are in town.

    Horrible service, the mains were great, but somehow the sides were both cold and overcooked (head lamp). I will never go back here when there are three other superior steak houses in Chattanooga. Sad, I once ate here 6-7 times a year,

    Reservations were easy to make and we were seated right on time. Our server, Jade, was amazing and informative. The food was excellent overall. We all 3 had salads- the wedge and cesarer salads were large! My wife had the flounder Imperial- the flounder and crab cake where amazing. I had the delmonico ribeye which was flavorful and cooked to perfect medium rare. My son had the papperdelle pasta which also was soooo good!!

    I’ve been to Hennon’s many times. When it is good it is really good. Unfortunately, recently the food is inconsistent. In our last 5 visits - one was great, two were good and two not so good.

    This restaurant was fabulous. The service was great, he was attentive and helpful-directing us to which wines we should try. The food was cooked exactly the way we ordered it. The filet was hot and buttery -melt in your mouth. This was a stellar dining experience.

    Loved the server Christian very professional. Steak would’ve been wonderful if it had been cooked at the requested medium. Unfortunately it was cooked to mostly grey and was very dry. The mac n cheese was baked to the point of a crusty top and it was inedible. Very crunchy and not appetizing at all. I was graciously offered a baked potato instead, but was told the Mac n cheese was presented that way each time as it’s baked. The mashed potatoes were creamed and too soft of a texture last tasted slightly off. Overall interior could use some sprucing up but the atmosphere was nice. Probably won’t be back.

    Surf and turf was delicious with 5 oz filet, three shrimp and small crab cake. The cocktail was mediocre and seemed like I had nothing more than a minute maid lemonade rather than being a special cocktail. Overall experience was good, but not remarkable. Probably won’t come again.

    We went there for our Anniversary dinner and had filet mignon with the baked potatoes. The best filet and baked potatoes I’ve ever ate in a restaurant. We’ve been there 3 times this month. I love their ceaser salad and my husband had the blue cheese wedge for the first time and it was very good. We were told They make their salad dressings every morning. The turtle cheesecake is amazing! Don’t pass on that if you like cheesecake. Only complaint is I told the waitress I want more chocolate on my side and their wasn’t hardly any chocolate on it at all. Our opinion is the filet is the best in Chatt town.

    When I booked this restaurant, I wanted something close to our hotel that was accepting reservstions with good reviews. Hennen's fit the bill and my wife and I were very happy with our dining experience! The wine list was good and the Old Fashioned I ordered was also good. We both ordered salads as starters The homemade dressing was delicious. I appreciated the fact that our waitress told me about two ingredients that came in the salad that were not listed on the menu, as that influenced my order. I ordered the meatloaf. It was definitely not my mother's meatloaf and I enjoyed it very much. My wife enjoyed the salmon she ordered. It was cooked perfectly she said. We split the floorless chocolate cake for dessert. Yum! We thought that the prices charged were reasonable for the quality of the food, service, and the overall experience.

    I had requested quite seating with my reservation due to 2/4 guests were hard of hearing. We were accommodated and the server, Ashton, spoke clearly and was incredibly engaging. The food is some of the best, if not the best, in Chattanooga. If I had one complaint, it would be that we couldn’t stay and eat the whole night! I will never hesitate to eat here again. 10s across the board.

Our server was Audrey she was informative and helpful with suggestions for our first visit. We will come again on our next trip to Chattanooga! Yes, Expensive but worth it!
