irst off, I have a vague understanding of the problems driving customer service in America. Too many people, not enough servers, "nobody wants towork", all of which contribute to crowded restaurants and slow service.That being said, I do not understand why businesses don't adapt to these constraints. It appeared there were two waiters and two bartenders working on a Saturday night. We had dinner at 5:30, then came back for drinks at 9:30.Dinner was fine, we were up against time constraints (comedy show) so I was a little anxious about getting food and drinks in a timely matter. The food was great, the beer selection and drink selection were also above par. The environment has a great retro sexy feel, which is a nice way to spend a Saturday night. I found the service to be a little slow, again, I understand it was busy, but it seems madness to have two servers taking care of a packed restaurant. Yay capitalism.When we came back for drinks, I waited 20 minutes at the bar before we ended up leaving. Not even a "I'll be right with you, a general glance in my direction... 2 1/2 bartenders were working behind the bar, one of them was visibly overwhelmed, and drinks were trickling out of the bar. Again, I get it. It's Saturday night. So why not make an adjustment. Limit how many people can come in the bar... I know, I know...capitalism.Then fine, limit drinks to beer or wine until the crowd gets under control. There are plenty of other options besides losing your bearing as a bartender and not getting drinks out from behind the bar. I have already spent my money and my time in the restaurant, I would like my experience to match what is being advertised on Google and your website.

We are visiting from SoCal to visit our daughter at Cal. So many friends recommended Henry's and we came our last night here. James was working and it was the best time! He had us laughing the entire time, made us feel so welcomed, and recommended great cocktails. We will be back and definitely coming to Henry's again for James!

Cocktails were syrup-y (2/5 stars) but the cauliflower steak (5/5 stars) was phenomenal, and I say that as a foodie! It wasn't life changing but I was genuinely very impressed, and I'd recommend this dish highly. That being said, a few of my coworkers ordered salads that didn't look amazing (burnt croutons, slightly droopy lettuce), so I'm inclined to give this restaurant a 3.5/5 and I'm rounding up because their overall rating is so low right now. Servers seemed overworked and therefore were inattentive and disengaged.

I come here for the mussels and conversation. For whatever reason, my arrival is never during a busy time at the bar, where I go directly. Tonight, there was a young woman learning some basic drink mixing, which I enjoyed watching. I'm never in a hurry here, and I start out with some variety of martini, knowing that I'll be transitioning to wine and mussels. The staff was engaging, and they always grant me extra bread to soak up the garlic butter nectar. Let me also note, before the mussels, I had a half dozen raw oysters, and those were the BIGGEST damn oysters I've ever had. So much yum. Someday I might have something else here. But I doubt it.

5 stars to Maria, our wonderful server, who handled a stressful situation with grace and kindness.We arrived to have a bite before the show at the Greek, and unfortunately, many others had the same idea. So they were slammed. Maria was on it- amazing communication and service. She hustled to make things happen, with a big smile. Even though we weren't able to order dinner, we had a fantastic time and would come back. Great drinks, fantastic service. Thank you, Maria!

I give this place five stars based on the food and service. We entered o December 31st to a birthday gathering and saw a small group of about six siting at two small tables that had been placed together. As more arrived we were told we could sit in the larger room but to be aware others may come in there to eat which were not in our party. No other people outside of our group of about 35-40 people showed up so we had the whole area to ourselves. Oysters, chicken piccata, burgers, salads, etc ordered and and everything looked delicious and presented beautifully. Fried and barbecue wings were brought in on the house. The service was provided by cheerful happy faces and the wait for food was short. My only complaint is it was cold on both sides of the restaurant. I've paid more for burgers and fries that were not as delicious and less of a great service in other restaurants. Well done Henry's Bar and Grill!

The food was satisfactory, but the drinks were average. I appreciate the concept of an elegant bar without the overwhelming music and crowded spaces. However, the odors hinted at a less refined establishment - the enticing scents of mop water and numerous pairs of shoes were noticeable. The place's layout was pleasant, but it seemed to lack that extra. I see that they are making an effort. Would I consider returning? Perhaps. The server was friendly, and the place was not busy at all.

Two stars overall:Service: **** great, personable efficient waitressFood: * Poor. Ordered fish and chips. Fish was leathery, as if fried twice. Waffle fries instead of chips, which were covered in a seasoning with too much sugar in it. Sugar on fries is an abominationAmbiance: *** decent bar, with tables and booths, though it was not very full for a Saturday evening.

The service was horrible, huge delay in even getting seated. Waited almost 45 minutes for cocktails ordered from the bar, portion size was very small, food was always like warm. Will never attempt to dine at this restaurant again.
