We went to Henrietta with our friends Cindy K. and Will S. when we all had babysitting on a Thursday night. There were no reservations available near 7:00, our preferred time, so we decided to try our luck walking in. We were pleased to find free lot parking and a light crowd, and got a table for four, no problem. It was a high top near the door, probably not the best table in the house, but it suited our purposes just fine. The restaurant was charming, cute and small with a European wine bar by way of Echo Park vibe. (The location is not what I tend to think of as Echo Park, but if you've been to the Clark Street, it's on that same stretch.) I guess it's a sandwich shop by day and an elegant bistro by night. It must be at least a little trendy because at one point a very made-up woman came in and recorded footage of the dining room on her phone (please tell me if you see me on TikTok). Service was great. We had a helpful, handsome waiter (another sign this is a trendy spot) who talked movies with us and attended to all our needs. We got a couple bottles of a French red blend, the Domaine La Grange Tiphaine Touraine "Ad Libitum," and enjoyed a fun, relaxing dinner. The menu was short, everything made to share, and we got eight of the twelve dishes (I'm counting the bread and accompaniments as one). Portions were on the small side, but no one left hungry, and the food was delicious. The bread was not free, but it was fantastic. Fresh Clark Street baguette, presumably from the bakery next door. We ordered two and added the cultured butter and chicken liver. The butter was rich, creamy, and yellow, and the liver might have been the best dish of the night. It was velvety and flavorful, finished with scallion, pickled onion, and some kind of jammy, vinegary sauce. The bluefin tuna crudo was firm and silky, served with blood orange, knob onion, and Fresno chile. The ricotta dumplings made a warm, rustic dish, soft and delicate in a dark broth with morel, English pea, shaved cacciocavallo cheese, and Madeira. We had a nice snap pea and avocado salad with tangerine, endive, and buttermilk, and two excellent vegetable dishes from the sidesy part of the menu. Fried broccolini came with green chile, honey, yogurt, and mint; grilled asparagus with pistachio, dukkah, and tahini. On the more substantial side, the rigatoni was quite good, doughy pasta with short rib, Bloomsdale spinach, Banyuls (a fortified wine), and pecorino. And the vermillion rock cod was rock solid, a beautifully cooked piece of fish served with cucumber, lime, pepita, and zhoug. We had a lovely time at this new restaurant and I'd be happy to go back, both for dinner and for the lunchtime sandwiches, which look outstanding. Henrietta is an elegant little place, well worth visiting for a leisurely night out. read more

First of all, the staff is amazing. They were super friendly and had great recommendations. I forgot to take pictures of my food because I was so hungry lol but everything was SO good. We got the broccolini, squash, potatoes, and the ricotta dumplings. The flavors on everything were amazing. My favorites were the dumplings and the broccolini. Would definitely come back again. P.S if you get the dumplings, get the side of sourdough for the broth. It's worth it! read more

love!!! especially the free matchbooks (so happy restaurants r doing this again)! portions are on the smaller side pros: beautiful & small restaurant w/patio seating, dim lighting, fast service, cute utensils, amazing dishes, very kind staff :)) i appreciate that we didn't feel rushed to leave, esp since there's such limited space. cons: the rigatoni was a little salty read more

The food is 10/10!! Everything we ordered was savory starting with the beef rigatoni softest beef topped with fresh cheese . The half chicken was juicy and crispy on the outside, it also came with some green lettuce salad with Ceaser dressing & pieces of bread. The tuna Crudo was fresh and citrusy - you don't regret ordering. OFC, we got dessert the Apple Galette with Vanilla Ice Cream also worth ordering! Great selection of wine and specialty cocktails. Omg and the sharing plates are the most cutest things ever!! This menu is meant for sharing we were a party of 3 so 6 player were suggested . We had a reservation at 545pm but came in 45 mins earlier the host & manager were able to accommodate us soon and gave us a table vs the high tops- which is what we had RSVPd for and all that was available. Restaurant is quite small and intimate good for small groups (4-6) and couple dinning. Food runners also took their time to explain what was being served and how it was prepared. I would highly recommend Henrietta! I'll be back read more

What a great little spot on a great up and coming block. This block really wants to be called Echo Park Village but Echo Park starts on the other side of Temple people. This part of town is called Temple-Beaudry just east of Filipino Town and South of Echo Park. The restaurant is very small. It was a nice night outside so we requested a sidewalk table. It was the perfect temperature that night. My friend ordered the Rock cod and I ordered the half chicken. Both were delicious. The restaurant is literally down the sidewalk from Clark Street bakery so they have the baguettes as their bread service. One of the options they offer is to serve it with delice de bourgogne and jam. Get this! But be warned. It is dangerous! You could just sit there all night making a meal out of this it's so good. read more

My girlfriends and I try to get together at least once a month -- no babies, just lunch (or dinner) and wine. This time we chose Henrietta's. First off, it's absolutely adorable. Such a charming little bistro with only a handful of tables, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation -- especially for dinner. It's an order-at-the-counter spot, and they bring everything out to you. I'm a sandwich girly, so that's where my eyes immediately go. We ordered two sandwiches, two salads, crispy potatoes, and the mushroom dip. The mushroom dip sandwich was so good. I'm not vegetarian, but I used to work for a vegan chef who could make mushrooms taste incredibly rich and satisfying -- and Henrietta's absolutely nailed it. The mushrooms were meaty and deeply flavorful, and the au jus was the perfect finishing touch. We also had the Shredder (their Italian sandwich), which was excellent, plus the avocado chopped salad and the chicken Caesar panzanella with sourdough croutons... drool. Service was great -- everyone was warm and helpful. I'd definitely come back to try dinner next. read more

Incredible lunch experience and sandwiches! Had the turkey porchetta and chopped salad. Both super tasty. Service was kind and quick. Great, laid back vibe! read more

Wonderful service and excellent food -- dined for dinner with a group of 5 outside. Will be back in short order to try their lunch menu!

My partner and I came here by chance because we were walking by it and the food and the staff did not disappoint! Chef Alexis is incredible, and it was so sweet than she came up to serve us our food for every dish. It was all incredible- highlights for me were the tempura broccoli and the chocolate tart! The other staff were also so kind and welcoming - not what I was expecting from a fancy place. 11/10 food - it is a little pricey but it's legit farmers market stuff w a rotating menu. Hope they stick around and I'm excited to see the other dishes! Great for a casual meal or a classy date night. Thanks Henrietta for taking such great care of us even tho we were in gym clothes! read more

Love love love Henrietta's food and service! We went for lunch and got the sandwiches, potatoes, and a salad and they were all so delicious. Can't wait to come back for dinner! read more

Henrietta - Egg bacon sandwich, turkey porchetta, mushroom dip, Henrietta potatoes, kale & citrus salad - American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Service was fantastic - we arrived 30 minutes before dinner service so we got seated, had drinks and small bites before the full meal. Chicken was phenomenal! Would come back again read more

We went into Henrietta's with the completely false assumption that it was mostly a wine bar. The menu was appropriately limited given the small size of the establishment, but everything that we ordered was superb! The wait staff and the owner were equally friendly and supportive. This is a beautiful addition to the neighborhood and it's an added bonus that they get their baked goods from Clark Street bakery next-door. read more

Seasonal deliciousness. In addition to the decor and overall ambiance being adorable, the food slaps. It's legitimately incredible. Creative recipes and reasonable prices for a one of one experience. Highlights were the tuna crudo, ricotta dumplings, kabocha squash (do not sleep on this), twice fried potatoes. This will be in regular rotation. read more

Dining solo, I had a great meal at the bar. Fried broccolini and short rib rigatoni were both delicious. Both red wines I tried by the glass were excellent traditional styles (not biodynamic swill thankfully). They don't have cocktails unfortunately. Cozy, lively interior with an open kitchen. Warm staff. Buzzy, but not pretentious. Lovely addition to the neighborhood, I will definitely come back. read more

Wow! The food is incredible! 6 of us ate there last night and all give it 10 stars! Between us I think we ordered everything. I'm not sure what was best. It's now our # 1 restaurant in town. read more

Would give this place a 6/10 for dinner and a 9/10 for lunch/market. The food is (mostly) excellent, with just a couple misses (don't get the pork or burrata). But the dinner portions are laughably small. They tell you it's meant to share, but then give you plates to split dumplings in broth? And three paper thin slices of persimmon with a couple endive leaves as a $16 salad? Dinner: The ricotta dumplings are awesome. We also got the grilled fish (also delicious), the pork (meh- wouldn't get again), the burrata (fine), the persimmon salad (very good but don't get- the portion is laughably small- a few tiny slices on a plate). The honey nut squash crème brûlée was alright but could have been a little sweeter (imagine pumpkin pie meets crème brûlée). The biggest problem with dinner is how small the portions are. Very. Very small. The fish was maybe a quarter of a filet? You can get three times the amount of branzino up on sunset from Donna's for less money. We spent $250 between 3 people for a light snack. Some of our party went to the taco truck after. SKIP COMING HERE FOR DINNER. Instead, go for lunch. The lunch portions are normal and the prices are better. The sandwiches are awesome. The mushroom dip and the turkey sandwich are both bangers. It's a different menu but it's still good with quality ingredients. The deli case offerings are also good. And they have a cute market area. The staff is friendly and great. It's a nice addition to the neighborhood, but the portion sizing is too small for the price point. I'm guessing it has to be high since they only have 6 tables. It's a lot of overhead for such few tabletops. Since they can't do enough volume in sales, you're likely paying more for the rent and labor than you are for the food. You can find this quality of food at other places with better portions and lower prices. Definitely give it a try. Just be prepared. read more

Henrietta - Persimmon salad with endive - American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Really good basic food executed perfectly. I thought the apple tart was a bit of a disappointment, but everything else was great

Great food and great service! It's an intimate neighborly place with a great wine list and superb food. We had the gnocchi (amazing!), beef tartare (stupendous!) and the pork (actually, I don't recommend the pork). And the broccolini was fabulous! We got to meet the owner and he was a charming wonderful man -- I want to give him lots of business. I'm going to be coming back here often. This is the kind of place we need to frequent as chains take over our world! read more

We left a 5 star review on Resy... and realized we forgot to mention the pork collar!!! Omg!!... this restaurant is a stand-out. One of the best meals we have had in a long time. We were visiting from DC and only wish we had a Henrietta near us. Absolutely amazing food, service, wine list! This is a neighborhood restaurant which is sure to garner a following from people who are not locals. The beef tartar, squash, dumplings and aforementioned pork collar knocked us down... parties of four will do a great job getting through a good portion of the menu... the dishes are VERY generous in size. As a party of two, we happily took a good portion away with us. read more

Hands down the BEST restaurant I've been to this year 1000/10, no notes!!! Every single detail was absolute perfection! the food was out-of-this-world, the service made me feel like royalty, and the ambiance? Pure magic. I'm still dreaming about it. This isn't just a meal... it's an EXPERIENCE. Drop everything and go trust me, you won't regret it!!! read more

Grabbed a Shredder on the way out of yoga the other day. The textures and flavors were so well thought out, I LOVE THIS SANDWICH. Went back with my boyfriend Saturday. Got another Shredder, the Chicken Milanese and the potatoes. These dishes are so well balanced in flavor, texture and color, can't wait to explore the rest of the menu. There are many interesting and approachable wines and the staff are really excited about sharing thoughts on their favorites. A guy named Will came by to check on us and answered all our questions about the menu, wine and concept. Thanks Will. Need to check this place out before they blow up and keep going back once they do!! read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Henrietta! The interior is supremely warm and cozy. We had the bread and butter, lettuce salad, ricotta dumplings, squash, bass, and tart. We loved everything and want to come back to try everything else on the menu! The ricotta dumplings have a delectable savory mushroomy sauce and are truly unique. read more

We thought DineLa would be a great way to try this well reviewed restaurant. The place is charming and very small with a lovely friendly staff. Food quality was Amazing!!! Great flavors in every dish and you can tell great care goes into the preparation of all their dishes. I'm just not quite sure if there was any great value though in the DineLa menu. Most portions seemed incredibly small. I chose the dumplings for one course and The persimmon and avocado salad for another. The salad was sooooo small....and the dumplings was actually one dumpling. So for me I thought it should have a bit more generous in some of the quantity . Sorry.,just being honest. read more

IMPECCABLE. From start to finish. The atmosphere is friendly and fun while still feeling luxe, food and wine is top notch. Go!

Holy sh*t -- the food, the atmosphere, the wine list, the playlist?! No notes, dinner was fantastic

Incredible meal, incredible service. Can't wait to go back (for lunch, too). Highlights were the tuna crudo, ricotta dumplings, ocean trout, broccolini, potatoes. Doubt there's a single not-delicious thing on the menu, though. read more

Can joy be tasted? Can it be imbibed? Do we find joy in the taste of a succulent half chicken with a panzenella salad? Yes for all these questions and yes for more Henrietta. read more

We went back having gone for lunch to try the dinner, and every single item was delicious. We had the baguette with all the sides and especially loved the liver moose and the butter that they make in house. The tuna Crudo was outstanding. And the beef tartar was as advertised by our waiter, like your friends, older brother who got really cool and smoked cigarettes. It really packs a punch not your typical tartar. The ricotta dumplings come in a mushroom broth that is pure comfort food, and so tasty. We had an endive salad with persimmon that was light and cleansing before moving onto The Seabass, pork collar and chicken. All were excellent. The fried broccolini and Henrietta potatoes made lovely sides. I'll have to come back and order less so I can save room for dessert next time. We came on a rainy night and the ambience was so cozy and our server was very friendly and made us feel at home. Will definitely be back. read more

I loved my visit to Henrietta. The vibe was cozy, the food was DELICIOUS and the wine was... incredible. I am a vegetarian and my favorite dishes were the ricotta dumplings, persimmon salad, broccolini and the jam and cheese (so perfect on the baguette). We got the chilled red wine which was so light and refreshing and I got another glass of a white wine I can't quite recall. The wine list was great all around. Our server was soo sweet and even though they just opened, knowledgeable of the menu. I really enjoyed my visit here and can't wait to come back. read more

Great new place! Was looking for a new spot to have lunch w a friend. This place is lovely. Had a delicious chicken Milanese sandwich and potatoes to share. Friend has great looking avocado chop salad w chicken. Lovely tea selection. Looks like super well curated retail goods like wines, teas, other yummy things. Very nice people. Only open a week. Was kinda glad no one had found it yet but won't take long. Special place. read more

On a recent trip to LA, went with some friends to this new place. We went for dinner, and the food was incredible. We all left in awe of the dishes we had. Not only was the food good, it was beautifully presented. My favorite was the ricotta dumplings - we got two orders of them! Even the butter served with the baguette was excellent. Space is smallish but feels nice and airy, was fun to see a bit into the kitchen. Would 100% recommend this place. read more

Loved this cute little restaurant, great food, cute atmosphere & nice waitstaff . Only downside was the wait..but it was worth it

Incredible food and incredible service. Truly some of the best tasting dishes I have ever had, small portions but worth the price and beyond delicious. Really great service, was seated early for my reservation and our waitress Abby was next level. Parking is pretty rough but that's Echo Park for you. Beer and wine only with limited 'by the glass' choices so you'll probably end up getting an expensive bottle, but it doesn't take away from all of the other great things. read more

Food is delicious the flavors are fresh and plenty. Ambiance is cute takes you out of LA. Service is fast and easy. read more

Loved Henrietta. Had the turkey sandwich, chicken salad, and a bean dish and everything was amazing. The turkey sandwich was especially great -- super fresh, perfectly seasoned, and not dry at all. The chicken salad was light but packed with flavor. Bonus points for the staff too -- everyone was genuinely friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to go back. Casual but stylish ambiance. read more

I was lucky enough to have my birthday dinner at Henrietta. The service, the food, the wine, and the people were amazing. I can't recommend it enough. I'll be dreaming of the crudo for a long time.

SO delicious! We got a catered lunch for 25 people for our office from this new spot and there were 25 very happy people. Had the turkey porchetta, broccolini panini, and the shredder sandwiches, along with avocado chop salad and chicken Caesar panzanella. The whole office couldn't stop talking about the potatoes, they were AMAZING. And the cookies too. Cannot wait to try their dinner menu! read more
