| - I like John Henry's. I will go back and I am not a senior citizen, I didn't think they served Mexican and I am accustomed to paying $25 a plate, so the prices did not cause me to implode. So, for all the reviews that came before me...I rebuke you.
I found the food really well prepared, the wine list is good, not exceptional, the service is exceptional.
My husband and I went on a Tuesday evening and were seated right away. The decor is a bit 80's, with peachy/mauve walls and numerous tables w/white tablecloths and buffet chairs. But the dining area is large and you can feel secluded but still part of what is happening in the restaurant.
Our server asked if we cared for a drink and went over the specials. They had several specials to chose from and their soup special was lobster bisque. I do not have a enough lobster bisque in my diet -really who does? - and it was great. Lobster and butter and some spice, a perfect combination.
Our waiter was outstanding, we had an appetizer, and 2 courses. He timed them perfectly. My husband and I relaxed, made an slow meal of it and really enjoyed ourselves. The manager ended our evening with a lovely liqueur as a nightcap...free tasty booze, a step up from the free booze I will so happily accept.
There was a gentleman setting up a keyboard and playing a few tunes as we left. Think Hotel California and anything by the Eagles. The bar is really attractive and spacious, not quite the decor of the dining room. I liked it and thought, I could hit this place up again for some drinks and a few noshes while I listened to some live music..
The food is great, I think it is a great value for the food prepared, the service you receive and the overall feeling. Yes, I would come for my prom, or my Rotary Dinner out or like myself, just dinner bcz I can't bear to cook - pick your poison, head to JH and be prepared to have a good meal and be serenaded by Eagles tunes.
