I attended a business dinner at The Henley, and it was a great experience overall, with one exception.
The food was outstanding. The Bang Bang Shrimp was flavorful, and the appetizer platter—an artistic combination of fruit, cheese, jam, and meats—offered an interesting mix of unique flavors.
For my main course, I had the 8 oz filet, which was incredibly tender and practically melted in my mouth. The red wine demi-glaze paired beautifully with it, though I wouldn’t have minded a little more of it. The steak came with garlic mashed potatoes and onion straws (which I'll mention later), both of which were delicious. Honestly, the steaks seemed larger than 8 oz!
Several of my coworkers raved about the Henley Burger—a massive creation that looked fantastic. The fries were also excellent and came in such a generous portion that no one could finish them.
Our server was friendly and attentive, making for an enjoyable dining experience.
However, we did encounter one issue: a member of our party who is allergic to gluten ordered the filet, which was listed as gluten-free on the menu. Unfortunately, it was served topped with breaded onion straws, which aren't gluten-free and required the kitchen to remake it. The restaurant handled the situation well by apologizing, remaking the dish, and comping it from the bill, but menu items labeled as allergen-free should be verified more carefully.
Aside from that, everything was great, and I’d absolutely recommend The Henley. Worth a visit!
