Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Julia Sullivan

From the OpenTable editors: Chef Julia Sullivan’s chic Germantown bistro is what seafood dreams are made of—the James Beard finalist dazzles with an elegant menu starring the likes of sustainably sourced oysters, Tennessee paddlefish caviar, and a saffron-topped red snapper with Carolina gold rice. Snag a seat at the raw bar for a front-row seat to why GQ named this one of 2018’s Best New Restaurants in America.

    Absolutely EVERYTHING we ate was incredible. It was truly some of the best food I’ve had in Nashville and I’ve lived here a long time. The menus had Happy Birthday written on them as I had noted we were celebrating a birthday when I made the reservation. We loved everything about our dining experience and can’t wait to go back!

    Hi Summer, We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed everything from our menu. It's always a pleasure to surprise our guests with Happy Birthday messages and we're glad it added to your celebration. We look forward to welcoming you back to Henrietta Red soon!

    This restaurant has restored my faith in brunch in Nashville. My wife and I are frequent patrons of various Nashville restaurants (118 and counting) and enjoy a brunch. The last two restaurants took a bit of the wind out from us -- not because the food was bad (it was not) but because it was so ordinary. Not so with HR. The food was unique and surprising. The monkey bread was worth the trip; the crab cake was as good as Legal Seafood in Boston Harbor; the cocktails were delicious; and the quiche was just fine. The only soft spot was that our entrees were 40 minutes or so coming out and we were the first couple seated this morning -- we were not in a hurry so no big deal. Wait service was spot on. We'll be back, no doubt.
