- JJoeVIPNashville •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoWe are locals and it was our first time trying The Henry. The AGM overheard my wife and I discussing the menu and one appetizer in particular that sounded good - boom the appetizer shows up on our table as a compliment. We were so impressed we asked to speak to the GM and we praised the gesture and then the GM then proceeded to comp several additional items. We eat out a lot in Nashville and while the food and ambience were both outstanding, the unreasonable hospitality portrayed last night to us has just bought our loyalty.
