Recently The Henry has opened its latest location in Los Angeles. It's an extension of Fox’s Phoenix eatery that has a plethora of offerings for every hour of the day. From coffee, pastries, and decadent waffles to fresh salads and sandwiches during the day to truffle risotto and Korean BBQ inspired skirt steak, no stone is left unturned when it comes to culinary delights at The Henry! Located at 120 Robertson Boulevard, the restaurant brings a fresh space full of energy and charm while delivering eclectic dishes in a comfortable setting.

For locals, The Henry has taken over the space of The Newsroom, however there is not trace of the previous restaurant. The Henry has fully remodeled and looks almost unrecognizable. The bustling restaurant is now an inviting white and blue stripped industrial garden oasis. Each table is set with fresh flowers and its high tops come complete with charging station. Some might even go as far to say The Henry is an upscale instagrammable restaurant for millennials!

We had the privilege of trying a few of the dishes before the official opening. A MUST try is the Surf & Surf! If you're a lover of seafood this dish does not disappoint! The palatable dish is a nice size, easy to share, and a perfect starter! It comes with garlic bread, HUGE shrimp, and crab smothered in truffle butter that absolutely melts in your mouth. I also recommend the Black Truffle Cheese Fondue. It's absolute PERFECTION and served with mini soft pretzel bread. The dish is as decadent as it sounds but totally worth it in every way.

Their vast innovative skillset does not stop at the kitchen - The Henry offers an impressive beverage menu! Using only fresh ingredients The Henry is the perfect place to unwind for that after-work cocktail and sparkling sodas. I opted for the Almost Naked Margarita, (casamigos blanco, lime, cointreau, passoā liqueur, and bar spoon honey.) Highly recommended, this margarita will soon be your go-to. It's not sweet, sour or packed with high fructose syrup like your average 'bar' margarita - it's simple, unique, and refreshing. Take my recommendation and throw a couple of jalepenõs in it if you're feeling adventurous.
