    Braised Short Rib
    Jason C.

    Review for Valentine's Day: We had a reservation for Valentine's Day & had a great experience. My wife has been here for brunch before but this was my 1st visit. Parking: of course being in 12 South, free neighborhood parking is always easy to find with a short walk (just make sure it's not in residential permit areas). Service: service overall was very friendly, attentive, & efficient. We never felt rushed & the food & drinks came out quickly with the pre-fixe menu. We did wait a little while past our reservation time but of course it was packed being Valentine's. Food: food was really good! Casual upscale, good quality, & good portion sizes. We ordered the smoked salmon & caviar, truffled Brie toast, seared ahi tuna, braised short rib, chocolate fudge pie, & lemon olive oil cake. I also ordered the house wine pairing. Ambiance: They had live music this evening. We were seated near the bar but it was not too loud. The overall dark ambiance with the music gave off old-school vintage romantic vibes. Very pleased with our date night here. Highly recommend for a nice dinner out.

    Salmon Entree
    Micki P.

    The Henry delivered a really lovely experience overall! We were there celebrating my friend's birthday, and it was the right spot, The service was amazing--they surprised the birthday girl at our table with a free dessert, which was thoughtful. My salmon entrée was incredible, easily one of the best meals I've had in a while. I was taking notes! The Christmasy vibes were fantastic and made the whole night feel extra special. They also have great bathrooms. And I believe they validate parking in the back. The only downside was that, despite having a reservation for quite a while, we were seated on the ground floor, which was a bit disappointing given how nice the rest of the space is. Still, the food and service made it a memorable visit. I will be back!

    Brussels Sprouts
    Aubrey M.

    Overall it's good but I wouldn't rave about it. In my opinion best part was the ambiance and environment. Our waitress was so nice and was very helpful throughout. My meal was the Rigatoni Vodka which was ok, I think I can make better at home. Only thing special was the burrata on top which could have melted a bit more. The appetizer pf Brussels sprouts was the best part of the meal. The drinks were good, I got the spritz which was pretty good. Allergies beware!!! I have a nut allergy and sooooo much not theme has nuts. Both deserts we ordered were topped or covered in nuts. The lemon olive oil cake was topped with almonds, we were given the name "fudge pie" and it was actually a peanut brittle esque crust with peanuts as a topping and a "garnish" of peanut sauce covering the entire bottom of the plate. I can't complain too much cause I did not let her know (because the menu did not list many nuts if at all) but you should say Peanut Fudge Pie or say nut in the name.

    This was my first time to The Henry and it will NOT be the last! Omar was a phenomenal server, very attentive. The drinks were delicious. The brussels were flavorful. My chicken frites was tasty! Proportions were good size. I can't wait to go back and sit on the patio!!

    A trip to the Henry will literally turn a BAD day into a GOOD one. Top Dishes: The Braised short rib on a bed of mashed potatoes, the Bolognese, and the Korean steak. The chocolate fudge pie with peanut butter sauce is so dang good. Do not skip dessert. If you're full then order a piece to go. The Henry: please don't ever take this off the menu. The friendliness of the servers is five stars. I walked to the bathroom and had no less than 3 servers smile & say hello. In a world full of people staring at their phones, it was really refreshing. And most restaurants waiters are rushing around in the weeds. But this place has an elegance to it. And it makes all the difference in the customer experience. IG Lillypulitzerstylist

    Spicy Tuna & Crispy Rice*
    Maley S.

    Had a fine experience here. I ordered the tuna & crispy rice and it was very good. I ordered the club and chicken tortilla soup to go and they were just OK. The soup was not contained/wrapped up properly and spilled all over the bag and my car. I would go back here but probably just for the crispy rice. The singular staff member there seemed to not be prioritizing the customers in the restaurant because he was pretty focused on socializing with someone who seemed to be a personal friend at the bar... it was kind of weird to watch. The restaurant itself is very nice. I would return but would make better decisions about what I order.

    Bolognese
    Abigal S.

    Made a reservation a few days in advance for date night but the had limited availability. We were planning to get a drink at the bar before but were pleasantly surprised when they offered to seat us an hour before our reservation time! We started with a dirty martini (tiny tini) and the southern city mischief. My partner and I split the short rib potstickers for an appetizer. They were so flavorful! Amazing sauce. For entrees, we split the skirt steak and bolognese. The steak was great, a little spicy. The bolognese was good and very filling. We were stuffed by the end of our meal. We got great service just felt a little hot in the restaurant but that was likely because we were sat by the deck doors. Overall, super enjoyable and great date night spot!

    We didn't have an opportunity to try the food; just dropped in for a cocktail in the middle of a little shopping. We sat on the upper patio, on a sunny day and the cocktails really hit the spot. Although we didn't order food, the staff made us feel welcome; our waitress was very friendly and engaging. Next time we're in Nashville, we'll definitely put this on our lunch list.

    A new place in 12South. Super lovely place. It's a whole lot bigger than it looks from outside. Theres a downstairs that's first come first serve. Then there's upstairs where you can wait to be seated. Because 12South gets pretty busy it's good to make a reservation. We ordered some appetizers and a burger and they were pretty average. Everything is on a pricier side. I would have to try out their different selection to truly comment on the food. Staff were very attentive and kind.

    california burrito
    Tatum B.

    the atmosphere was very holiday-y. people laughing and smiling, having a good time. I got the pushing daisies matcha but it wasn't too good, about a 5/10. there was no flavor and whatever the "orange blossom" was, i couldn't taste it, very watery. for food, i got the california burrito and it was good. nothing too special, about a 7/10. i also got a side of fries, those were good. now the service...i am a little iffy on. our server, in a way, had no holiday spirit, he was very nonchalant. he never asked how our food was, didn't ask if we were splitting the check or keeping it on one, when picking up our plates he wouldn't say anything when reaching to get it, was just unapologetically in our way. i understand it's the holidays and it's busy but i would be "kissing people's feet" for that tip. but i loved the atmosphere, very pretty !

    Harvest Bowl
    Evangeline L.

    Came by as a party of 5 on a weekend. Henry was one of the few places open and available for brunch without reservations. The food was decent (I was satisfied with the Harvest Bowl) but definitely overpriced. For the price of the dishes, you'd think we were at a fancy restaurant! However, service and food were standard.

    Korean Prime Skirt Steak*
    Molly J.

    We loved the vibes at The Henry and our food was simply delicious! The atmosphere is old school/old Hollywood, yet casual enough to be comfortable and not stuffy at all. Our server made excellent recommendations. We chose the crispy rice tuna appetizer- wonderful. Entree's were Korean flank steak w fried rice - my daughter said it was great. I had the salmon- it was perfectly cooked and seasoned.. My daughter and I both loved the flavors in our dishes. Wine selection was great. For dessert we LOVED the molten butter cake. We can't wait to come back and try more menu items. Everything we had was 10/10.

    Enjoyed a delicious Easter brunch here when my bestie was in town visiting! The weather was perfect so we sat outside where there was a lovely breeze, umbrellas for extra sun protection and fans to help keep air flowing. Throughout our meal there was live music, a guitarist serenaded the diners and he had a phenomenal voice! Our server was a bit slow, but I'm sure that was just due to the hecticness of Easter brunch. The food was delish and I definitely will be back for the guava mimosa!

The staff stayed attentive and made sure everyone was taken care of. I absolutely love the Bonut -- it was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made.

I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

We ordered the Fruit Tea, East Nasty and the B-Roll. I liked their Fruit Tea, nice and refreshing. The East Nasty was pretty good overall, the fried chicken and gravy were flavorful and comforting, but the biscuit underneath was a little underwhelming. BUT oh boy the B-Roll... omg WOW. I've genuinely never had anything like them before. My husband called them "cinnabon on steroids" The pastry was light, warm, airy, and perfectly soft. Then the gooey pecan topping was sooo good, and the cream cheese icing on the side tied everything together perfectly. Absolute chef's kiss. Honestly, order this when you come here.

Even with that, we still had a good experience. There was a little mix-up with our food a few people who ordered after us got their meals first, and the table next to us accidentally received our order, so we ended up waiting a bit longer. It was definitely frustrating at the moment, but once our food came out, it made up for it. We had the shrimp and grits along with the steak, eggs, and hashbrowns, and everything was delicious. The sweet cream cold brew was really good, and even though the orange juice was a little small, it still tasted fresh. The atmosphere was nice, and I also liked that they had outdoor seating. Overall, despite the small hiccup, I'd still come back and recommend this spot.

I'll start off by saying I'm not the biggest fan of pancakes, nor cinnamon and have to be in the mood for both. Today happened to be the day.

But, their cinnamon pancakes were amazing!! Those were definitely the winner!!! Best pancakes I've ever had. Their three pig omelette was pretty bomb as well. I got some of their sausage gravy on the side, to douse the omelette and that was definitely the move there. I think this is the first time I didn't need to use cholula for flavoring. The location is centralized, set up nicely, with huge open indoor space with plenty of seating outside. The service was great as well. Attentive and fast. All in all, I wish I had the time to come here yesterday, so I could try something different today. But, I took the place for everything it had and it definitely delivered. Highly recommend and I will be back, when I'm in the area for sure!
