    Flower Child Scramble, Wagyu Cheeseburger*, Spicy Tuna & Crispy Rice*
    Mag T.

    FANTASTIC brunch! Really enjoyed the food & environment here. Everything was delicious but the spicy tuna crispy rice takes the show! Service was great! Reservations available and recommended!

    The original egg sandwich
    Steve S.

    We (4 of us) did a brunch here and we all said it was great! I had the quinoa bowl. Scrambled egg, quinoa, black beans, avocado, cotija with a great sauce and chunky potato's. Yum! Others also had the quinoa bowl and the original egg sandwich. An extra order of bacon topped it off. All great! Coffee was rich & delicious. Service was quick & friendly. Oh, yea- I'll be back!

    Roasted Chicken Frites
    Gable H.

    I recently visited The Henry with a group of friends, and overall it was an interesting experience. I've been to both this location and the Dallas one before, so I went in expecting a reliably pleasant dinner. Parking was a bit confusing for some of my friends, but once we arrived, things moved quickly. After checking in with the hostess, we were seated right away, and our server was reasonably attentive throughout the evening. We started with the spicy tuna on crispy rice--clearly inspired by Nobu's signature dish. It was a solid interpretation, though the rice leaned a bit too oily and could have used more seasoning to really bring it to life. For drinks, our group ordered an Old Fashioned and one of the featured cocktails. The Old Fashioned was a hit, but the cocktail fell a little flat--so a bit of a mixed bag there. For my entrée, I ordered the roasted chicken frites. The chicken itself was cooked properly, but the skin was unfortunately quite soggy, likely due to the garlic sauce. It also seemed like the dish may have sat in the service window for a bit before reaching the table, which didn't help. There was also an overwhelming amount of sauce--so much so that the fries were completely soaked and lost their texture. The few fries that weren't drenched paired really well with the truffle aioli, which was a highlight. My friends ordered the Bolognese and the Wagyu cheeseburger, and both described their meals as fine, but not memorable enough to warrant a return visit. Overall, The Henry is a convenient option if you're already in the 12 South area, but with so many standout restaurants in Nashville, there are definitely stronger choices nearby.

    Smoked Salmon Bagel.

    Where to begin...? We were early for our res. We were greeted with a smile and were seated in our desired location. This place is perfect. Atmosphere was quiet for 08:30 on a Sunday. Need I mention the Bourbon list. Quite impressive. Our server was Fuller. He was so kind and so generous. When he heard we were celebrating our 28th wedding anniversary he brought a delicious caramel roll. Amazing! Thank you for allowing him to do this. Our breakfast/brunch was great! Smoke salmon bagel was so delicious! True colors Morton for (sshhhh a little but major Bagel spot by Vanderbilt). Our other meal was so packed with amazing flavors! The California bowl. My goodness so delicious. Thank you for a wonderful experience and fantastic service. Also, thank you to your hostess and other colleagues. We did some shopping talk too and found out we can find some amazingly stylish boots right at a local chain store. Best to make a reservation here but please make this a stop on your list for things to experience in the 12 South area!

    Molten Butter Cake
    Olivia A.

    This was my third visit to The Henry, and it's remained consistently good every time. The food was flavorful, the cocktails were well-made, and the service was friendly without feeling rushed. The butter cake is a must try and I'm not even typically a dessert person. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between upscale and comfortable, making it great for brunch or dinner. Bonus points for validating parking, which is a huge plus in the area.

    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.

    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

    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.

    Hank's Espresso Martini and Prosecco
    Lauren S.

    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!!

    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!

    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.

Famous for not having a sign, finding it may be part of the adventure, but once you do, everything else is effortless. Parking is simple--just pull up and valet takes care of the rest. With a reservation, we walked right in with no wait. The most difficult part of the evening was deciding what to order because the menu offers so many tempting choices. I selected the Kvarøy Arctic Salmon, while my wife chose the Springer Mountain Farms All-Natural Chicken. Both dishes exceeded expectations. The salmon was cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside. It rested on a bed of greens with a subtle lemon flavor that paired beautifully with the fish. The chicken was equally impressive--moist, tender, and packed with flavor. What stood out most was the incredible smoky aroma that hit before each bite, making it even more irresistible. For dessert, the Blackberry Lemon Bread Pudding was the perfect finish. Soft, warm, and bursting with flavor, it was a standout ending to an already exceptional meal. From the outstanding food to the attentive service, Urban Grub delivered a fantastic dining experience. Make a reservation, enjoy the meal, and see if you can find the place.

They were not what I was expecting but they were good. They are more like a crab hush puppy. The Alabama white sauce that came with set the beignet off!! The grits...the grits (chefs kiss). Very flavorful. The steak was good. Didn't even really need an additional sauce. White linen type of vibe. We got to sit in the VIP area/chef table. I will definitely be back!!
