    Wow! A well thought out menu and consistently executed deliciousness in each dish. All starters and mains had well balanced flavor and were cooked to perfection. We had a table of 6 with many of us ordering the same starters and mains, each plate was exactly the same from seasoning to presentation. Tasty cocktails where you can taste the ingredients not just the alcohol. To top it off, from the moment we walked in we were cared for in every interaction from the hostess to the servers. Thanks to the Henry team for a fantastic night!
