| - Sam Fox does it again! I'm so behind on checking the rest of the newish FRC spots in the Phoenix area, but alas, I made it to The Henry. It's Sam Fox in every way- they've nailed ambiance, service and a solid menu. It appears this restaurant shared the building with their HQ, it's pretty cool! I loved the vintage yet contemporary setting. My group of three managed to get seated right away on a Tuesday night, but it was also like 8:45pm. The place was still bustling with diners. I stuck to wine even though the cocktail and whiskey list did impress. We shared the avocado toast to start. It was fresh and light and could easily be made at home. I'd probably order something a little more indulgent next time. I must've been in a healthy mood, because I ordered the Mediterranean fatoosh salad with chicken. This item was not particularly impressive for an entree salad, there was barely a hint of Sumac in the dressing. Those looking for an extremely lightly flavored or garnished salad might enjoy this. It was A-Ok. Next time, I'll go for a main entree for dinner. My dining buddies devoured their dinner- the roasted chicken and a pasta dish. Luckily, they were happy to let me in on their entrees! I'd go for the roasted chicken for sure, served with mashed potatoes and a side salad, this dish is comforting and filling. Overall, The Henry is fun and fresh and the service was stellar.
