Beautifully decorated restaurant with a chill yet fun vibe. The staff is very kind and helpful, always 1 step ahead with anything you would possibly need while dining there. We had the artichoke ricotta dip, pressed yellowtail and variety of sandwiches for lunch. and of course, the lemon olive oil cake...the star of the meal! Definitely recommend to your dining list!

After reading good reviews about The Henry, I knew it was the perfect dinner spot. I was on my own and went in for an early dinner, figuring it would be less crowded. Even though it was around 4, the restaurant was still busy, but they had seating. The Henry has a great atmosphere and the staff has positive and upbeat energy. The servers were already busy, but this team was friendly and helpful, my server took time to chat and help me find a light and healthy dinner. They have a good selection of appetizers and entree's, that Scottish Salmon looked good, but I was impressed with their selection of dinner salads and selected the Harvest Bowl. Unfortunately, the server came back and said they were out of some ingredients, so Sprouts & Squash was next. This was an excellent dinner choice, the salad was very fresh and came with roasted Brussels sprouts, maple glazed butternut squash, kale, farro, pumpkin seeds, figs, candied pecans, what a delicious meal! There is even a copycat recipe on Instagram for this salad. Since dinner was light, I had room to try one of their desserts. It was hard choosing between the Molten Butter Cake, Fudge Pie or Lemon Olive Oil Cake, but I went with the Croissant Bread Pudding. The server bought a large bowl filled with a delicious croissant, toasted pecans, apple-raisin compote and caramel ice cream, it was an amazing finish to dinner. The restaurant is extremely popular and reservations are recommended. When I left, the restaurant crowd had doubled and it was still early. It's priced higher than some restaurants but not super expensive for the quality of food, service and atmosphere you get. I wish they would open this restaurant in Naples!

Came here on a Sunday around 12 pm and the place was pretty much packed. It was a little warm inside as they have open bar concept and we were seated right next to the entrance door so there was hot air coming in throughout. I ordered the spicy tuna and crispy rice, for $20 I expected it to be amazing. It was alright, nothing really special and the tuna wasn't even spicy. My boyfriend ordered the roasted turkey French dip, again it was alright and some of the fries tasted like dirt as if the potatoes weren't cleaned out throughly.

Had a rsvp and arrived a bit early, still waited 20mns past our rsvp time to get seated. So definitely come with a reservation or you'll be waiting over 1hr. Limited entryway so we were very crowded in there while waiting too. We placed our food order and there were some missed items but our waitress was very kind and fixed the errors right away. The food was good but we did have a decent wait given they are very busy. We had a few items to try: the ricotta dip was very strong in flavor a bit garlicky if you like that & came with lavash chips. Short rib potstickers were very flavorful! I had the eggs Benedict with regular bacon instead of Canadian and they were able to accommodate which was nice! The crispy tuna rice was amazing. It had a very fresh flavor to it. The California bowl was okay, nothing spectacular. The butter cake had great flavor but it was a bit dry even with the ice cream.

A bit of a hit and a miss. The Henry had been on my list to visit for quite some time. The original restaurant is one of the most popular spots in town. And this is their newest location in North Scottsdale. I stopped by on a Wednesday evening for dinner. We had a reservation at 7:30. Parking wasn't a problem in the large, complimentary lot they have. Ambiance (3/5): The Henry is a good looking restaurant. Once you walk in, there's a spacious bar area with both seats at the bar and high tops. In the middle, there's a charming patio. We were there in July, so it was a no-go, despite the misters, but I'm sure it's clutch during the cooler months. In the back is the sit-down area. Which is where we were seated. The fatal flaw? The acoustics make it quite loud. To the point where you have to yell a bit to converse with your dining partner and the waitress. Never fun. Service (2/5): This is where there was a lot left to be desired. Even though we had reservations for 7:30, we waited 10-15 minutes to be seated. The explanation? Prior diners were lingering. Sounds like a logistical problem. When you have a reservation, you expect to be seated promptly. Our waitress, while friendly, made a series of errors too. I ordered the chicken frites, and after placing my order, after a few minutes she told me they were sold out of the dish. Something to mention before perusing the menu? She also told me the dish is quite good which I didn't want to hear as it was like pouring salt into the wound. When I received my bill, she had added a $4 surcharge for truffle fries though I never ordered the truffle fries. I had regular fries. At an upscale restaurant, you expect better. Drinks (4/5): The Henry has a nice list of cocktails. Plus a full bar. I wasn't in the mood for alcohol and went with an Arnold Palmer instead. When I was on empty, my beverage was refilled without be asking. A nice touch. Food (3.5/5): We started off by sharing their "famous" pretzels and fondue cheese. Probably the highlight of the night. While I bit pricey for an appetizer, the portion size was generous. You get large pretzel balls to dip into the cheesy goodness. The soft pretzels could have been a little more buttery, but outside of that, I can tell why they are so popular. For my main dish, my plan B was the waygu cheeseburger with fries. I asked for my burger without onions. Sure enough, my burger came with onions. Another service snafu I forgot to mention earlier. Solid burger, reminded me of a good grilled burger you'd get at a barbecue. Not sure the waygu changed anything for me. Above average nut not spectacular. To round things out, the we had the butter molten cake, their most popular dessert. The caramel sauce is poured on the cake and vanilla bean gelato table side. While it's a big dessert, it's a fluffy one so not as filling as originally thought. The gelato was excellent. The cake? Not my favorite. Though my dining partner did enjoy it. Fox Restaurant Concepts has some excellent restaurants in Phoenix. I'm a big fan of Fly Bye, Culinary Dropout, and Flower Child. I like Arrogant Butcher too. The Henry? At the price point, and the expectations that come along with it, it didn't do it for me.

Last dinner in Scottsdale and we were told to go to The Henry. It was an early dinner so we were seated right away by the friendly host staff. Can't remember our server's name but she was friendly and efficient. We started with the Brussels, short rib potstickers, and a Caesar salad. All the apps were good. Salad dressing was just right for Caesar. Our entrees were the Korean skirt steak with fried rice and the Wagyu cheese burger. The skirt steak was perfectly medium rare and very good. The fried rice had lots of crunchy veggies. The burger was tasty and the fries were crispy. Our server kept our drinks topped off and she cleared our plates quickly. This is a good spot to visit.

Finally made it to the new Henry location in North Scottsdale, and we were especially excited since it's much closer to home. We chose it as the perfect spot to celebrate two friends' birthdays. We had a reservation for 7:45 p.m. but an our day got done early so we actually arrived around 7:00 p.m. Unfortunately, our experience didn't get off to the best start. The hostess who checked us in wasn't particularly welcoming and told us our table would not be available any earlier. She suggested we grab a drink at the bar but said we couldn't sit in the coffee bar area. This seemed a bit odd since there were guests enjoying cocktails and appetizers there, and several tables appeared to be open. After standing around chatting for about 10-15 minutes, we asked another hostess if we could sit in the coffee bar area while we waited. She immediately told us yes, which left us confused about the mixed messages. Once seated, a server came over to take our drink order. Unfortunately, she was also rather abrupt. She made a point of telling us we would need to close out our tab before moving to our dinner table, which we assumed was standard practice anyway. She even brought the check right after taking our order--before our drinks had even arrived. She actually seemed annoyed to be waiting on us. Between the hostess and this server, our fun birthday celebration wasn't off to the start we had hoped for. Thankfully, the drinks quickly turned things around. I ordered the Grapefruit Spritz, one friend enjoyed a Skinny Margarita (bonus - all of their margaritas are skinny,) and another had a glass of wine. My spritz was great and refreshing. Our table was ready at our reservation time. The evening truly changed once we met our dinner server, Nadi. She was fantastic. Super friendly, attentive, and full of positive energy. She took wonderful care of our table throughout the meal. We started with several appetizers: the Spicy Tuna & Crispy Rice, Artichoke & Ricotta Dip, Short Rib Potstickers, and the restaurant's famous Pretzels & Provolone Fondue. Every single dish was delicious. It's easy to see why the Pretzels & Provolone Fondue is such a fan favorite--it was absolutely amazing. The Artichoke & Ricotta Dip is a newer addition to the menu and is served chilled with everything lavash crackers. It was really good. By the time dinner arrived, we were already pretty full from the appetizers, so we decided to share two entrées, the Korean Prime Skirt Steak and the Rigatoni Alla Vodka. Both dishes were flavorful and enjoyed by everyone at the table. Since we were celebrating birthdays, dessert was a must. We ordered the Molten Butter Cake and the Warm Croissant Bread Pudding to share. The Molten Butter Cake, served with warm caramel and vanilla gelato, completely stole the show. It was light, fluffy, and absolutely incredible. I'm still dreaming about it days later! The Warm Croissant Bread Pudding was also excellent, featuring toasted pecans, apples, raisins, and caramel ice cream. While both desserts were fantastic, the Molten Butter Cake was the star! Despite the rocky start, we ended up having a wonderful evening. Nadi's exceptional service, the beautiful atmosphere, and the outstanding food more than made up for the initial frustrations. The new North Scottsdale location has a great vibe, and we'll definitely be back. I'm hoping the hostess and coffee bar area server were simply having an off night because the rest of our experience was truly enjoyable.

I like this location. Easy parking with ample spaces. We ordered the brussel sprouts appetizer which we've ordered before. It was slightly undercooked. Our waitress took it back and was apologetic. One of the managers redelivered a new one with another apology. Very nice. Our service experience was very positive. Both entrees were very good. Squash and sprout salad with grilled chicken and egg and meat burrito bowl with salad instead of potatoes. Very good for both dishes. Then to top it off, we got the butter cake with warm caramel sauce topped with gelato. Couldn't finish it. Barely got a couple bites of it but it packed up well and was still delicious the next day. Restrooms were clean, bar area organized and overall very nice atmosphere. Definitely a recommend.

The Henry new location in Mayo Blvd is fantastic. No longer will I have to make the drive south to the other location. Across the road from Whole Foods is so convenient to me in North Scottsdale. I've always enjoyed The Henry for its reliable tasty food choices but this new location surpasses the Camelback location. Huge parking lot for easy parking, bright wide open spacious dining area. Nice bar area with bar seating that opens to the beautiful huge courtyard. Large screen tv, high top tables and other relaxed seating near the entrance is comfortable. Large banquet booths and 4 seat tables that are generous and not cramped like some restaurants. Glass window walked in kitchen where you can view the chefs but not feel like the kitchen in encroaching on the dining area. The huge enclosed courtyard with lush vegetation screens and provides privacy. Very open courtyard with fans and open to the bar area is pleasant and doesn't feel like it is in basically a large parking area but rather a large garden space. The food is always reliable and the large menu and sushi menu means that there are choices for everyone. Our waiter was very genuinely friendly attentive and not fake. My one critique is that the hostesses are very young, and perhaps younger waitstaff are placed there due to being under age for serving alcohol . But it just feels wrong to be seated by such young female hostesses and sets the wrong tone. I can't wait to go back again. This time the Cinnamon French Toast was out and I really want to try it. I do wish The Henry had gluten-free bread. Certainly happy to have this new location and will go again.!

I must admit, I waited a long time to write this review but the photos are still in my camera roll so here goes. We went on the Tuesday after Mother's Day. It was so loud in the bar area at high top tables near the hostess. Not really the best suited spot for our intimate giggly group of three girlfriends out for a weeknight 4pm happy hour. But the Henry is so popular we had to try it. Service was pretty excellent with timely interventions on waning drink volumes. Water included, we were well hydrated. The first round was white sangria, light and summery but not ultimately my favorite. This white sangria had a big chunk of fresh watermelon and a strong passion fruit flavor. It was pretty empty when I fished out the fruit, there was a lot of ice and the drink portion was not large. We started with an order of happy hour guacamole and chips, a solid bowl of clearly fresh avocado mash with excellent crispy tortilla chips. We ate all of it even at the expense of sushi. I especially like the pepitas on top, chili lime if I recall. Solid. We ordered two California rolls because we knew with the real crab the three of us could polish them off. They were really superb. But we also ordered brussel sprouts and the girls who eat full gluten had some short rib pot stickers they raved about. Brussel sprouts were truly an umami bomb, with salty sweet soy combined with Parmesan cheese, a combination that shouldn't work but absolutely does. But I think I retained a lot of water from the sodium, but I could not stop eating the small leaves! Somewhere along the way we ordered another round of drinks, Palomas this time. Although appropriately fizzy and grapefruity, I did not notice a lot of tequila. The drinks are definitely singles. We got very full! I'm truly sad, but we left behind some brussel sprouts and had trouble eating the final piece of the Cali. Happy hour summary: the quality and variety of food and the portions are all truly excellent. The $10 happy hour cocktails also offer a nice variety if not high value, they are all well prepared. Servers are well trained and attentive, with good knowledge of the menu ingredients and suggestions for accommodating food sensitivities. With tip I spent $50 which felt like a lot. But, I still want to go back and try the Artichoke & Ricotta Dip add some more cocktails. Perhaps in another section of the bar where it isn't so loud?

Let me just start off by saying that everything was phenomenal from start to finish. Reservation check-in at the front was seamless and organized, even with the various groups of people milling about waiting to be seated. Our server was also great, very warm, friendly, and attentive. The restaurant overall has modern decor that instantly makes you feel comfortable. Depending on where your table is located, it can get loud. However, the spot we were located felt intimate in a high energy setting. After looking over the menu, we decided to start off the with California roll to share. These were standard. For our main entrees, we ordered the Korean prime skirt steak and the Scottish salmon. The skirt steak was cooked to medium rare perfection. It was tender, and the dish overall was chock full of flavor. The Scottish salmon was prepared nicely, not dry at all, but some bites were a bit salty. Since we always have room for dessert, we decided to share a molten butter cake. This was highly enjoyable. We're already looking forward to our next visit so we can try the warm croissant bread pudding. This location is close to a prime area so I would highly recommend making reservations, otherwise there may be quite a bit of a wait.

We stopped here for only dessert this time. Sat at their patio and it was very cozy and cool even though it was bit warm weather. Service was impeccable. We tried their molten butter cake and oh my! It was so delicious. It was well worth a stop just for this alone. Will return for a meal very soon.

We went back to the Henry for dinner. Short rib dumplings and the bolognese were great. I do think the bolognese would be better with a different type of pasta. We also got the butter cake and it was good. The pretzel toffee didn't really add anything to the dessert in our opinion. When you walk into the restaurant it is quite loud, but we sat in the back and it was much better because of the higher ceiling. Service was ok. From the moment we sat down it took almost 10 minutes for our server to greet us. He was great after that. Forgot to mention the old fashioned was good as was the espresso martini we ordered. We will be back and try some other things. Still a little room for improvement.
