| - Let me start off my staying I am NOT a big fan of Fox "concept" restaurants. I find them to be rather trite and pricey for the quality of food. I would not normally choose a Fox restaurant but my husband had a gift card so ....there you go.
I got off work a little early so we decided to try The Henry for their early Happy Hour (3:00-6:00 pm). We walked in to this large, open concept type of seating area. There was a coffee bar, sitting areas with wingback chairs and settees, dining booths and a regular bar. We stood there awkwardly for a long moment, looking for the host/hostess station. When we were finally greeted the hostess explained Happy Hour was limited to the bar, patio or lounge area (comfy sitting areas) which was already full at 3:30! I spied a gorgeous fireplace on the patio so we were seated there
I loved this patio! The oversized brick fireplace had a nice fire going. There was intimate seating all around. I'm not on the tall side so I found the seats to be a little too deep to comfortably recline and relax.
Lighting overhead consisted of Edison light strings with misters attached! Very clever idea. Nicely trimmed shrubs lined the fence to block out some of the traffic noise and add to the intimate garden setting.
Our server, Lalo, was perfect! He was polite, friendly and didn't hover over us asking "is everything tasting good?" every 10 minutes! Gosh that irritates me. He just seemed to have a great sense of how long to leave us alone before checking in.
We enjoyed a couple of cocktails (hubs had beer) and took our time to linger over the menu. I had the Fig & ginger mule and Peach & pomegranate mule. Both were good, but unfortunately the ginger beer overpowered the other flavors. My husband was disappointed that they didn't have at least one whiskey-based cocktail in the happy hour menu.
Since I am so indecisive about meals, we generally go for a smorgasbord of appetizers to share. We ordered the white truffle parmesan fries, warm kale & truffle dip, Korean short rib street tacos and a burger to share.
Admittedly, each dish was delicious. The street tacos were my absolute favorite!! Sweet and spicy sauce and tender beef. The kale dip was served with warm pita and lavash crackers. It was quite rich. The burger was good and large enough for the two of us to share. I was actually full so hubby finished it all.
Overall, I enjoyed dining at The Henry. I would definitely go back for happy hour.
The dinner menu is pricey, like all Fox restaurants, but happy hour was just right.
