Our first time at The Henry , we had family in town with a 1 year old so we wanted something that has a little bit of everything while still maintaining good quality food and service with an ambiance that supports dining with an infant. The Henry didn’t disappoint! Our server was very informative , cocktails were EXCELLENT and well crafted, especially the Carajillo!. We had the yellowtail sushi and short rib potsticker appetizers they were both very tasty. Highly recommend the Bolognese dish and the Korean skirt stake as well! Noise level totally manageable we were able to have a normal conversation without having to yell over the music. We will certainly return to try other dishes in the near future!

My wife and I are out-of-towners. I reserved a table for two at Deacon's New South for Saturday October 24, 2026 only to learn this day was the restaurant's last day of operation. Despite the fact that all of the employees were going to be laid-off and Saturday was their last day, everyone was very cheerful and attentive. We felt sad for them. The food was really good. The service was great. The atmosphere was relaxing. We wish the staff and especially our server, Hunter, good luck in the future.

The dining experience is reminiscent of a 1930s private club the attention to detail, the food preparation, and the service is beyond what words can describe.
