- EEmilyMinneapolis - St. Paul •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoWe were early for reservations and grabbed seats and the bar for a couple of drinks while we waited. Our manhattans were excellent and our table was ready within 5 minutes of our reservation. We sat near the kitchen so there was some noise, but we enjoyed the atmosphere. The restaurant is huge so there’s plenty of room to find something more intimate. The scallops were fabulous, and my husband enjoyed his grain bowl with salmon. We finished with the butter cake and practically inhaled it. 3 cocktails, two entrees and a side plus a dessert for less than $150? We will absolutely be back!More infoThe Henry - PhoenixPrice: Moderate• American• Central Phoenix•4.8
