- SScottPhoenix / Arizona •20 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoThis new Henry location has become a favorite of mine. Love the new atmosphere, the incredible service, and delicious food. Emilia does a wonderful job taking care of her guests needs. The entrees arrive piping hot, and the desserts are worth indulging for. Pricing is steep, especially for the drinks, but overall a perfect restaurant. If you’re considering The Henry for dinner, skip the 44th Street location (I truly hate that one) and head to Central & Camelback…you will love it here.More infoThe Henry – Phoenix UptownPrice: Moderate• American• West Phoenix•4.6
