"Decided to take my mom to locals night while hubs was traveling for biz. Henry's is offering HB locals a prix fixe menu Wednesdays and Thursdays. Had never dined there so gave it a try. The service is impeccable. The ocean-view setting is lovely. My mom had the Beef Wellington, which was cooked to perfection. I had the Barramundi, also very well prepared. The fish, which had a terrific sear/crust came surrounded in a roux with cranberry beans. It was very tasty but a bit unorthodox in terms of eating fish with a soup spoon. The cranberry beans were delicious but they don't pair well with red wine. Henry's has an estimable wine cellar so we felt a bit self-conscious bringing something from our own cellar. Note that corkage is $40 presumably to discourage people like us from bringing our own bottles, haha. I just wasn't thrilled with the prix fixe wine pairings (Conundrum as a white, was once good but is now too lemony and definitely not worth the per glass restaurant mark up price). They decanted our wine at the table. Gorgeous stemware and decanters. Professionally done. To pull in more HB locals, I might respectfully suggest a simpler menu, mindful that they need to prep for large groups in advance. We felt pampered and respected by the staff, something that doesn't happen much anymore with a senior mom and middle-aged daughter in restaurants so we appreciated the courteous treatment. We'll be back."
