Very nice restaurant that only a few know about. Open to all but exclusive to those who know how great this hidden-in-plain-site place is. Great ambiance both inside and out. Great service staff. Great chefs preparing, not exotic cuisine, but great comfort food and a lot of other things. Huge desserts. Great drinks. But, basically, great food. The only side effect is that there’s a 1 month reservation required to be able to dine there. But the wait is totally worth it. Small and intimate and a place you can’t wait to return to.

Great hidden gem. Not in the usual cluster of restaurants, but none the less a great place to eat old favorites. Definitely a country club vibe. Besides the employees we were probably the youngest table (let’s just say that the average age fell below 70 that day, lol).

It was a bit on the pricey side, but it was worth every penny because the food was absolutely incredible. The wait staff was prompt and very friendly.

A very cozy location that has fantastic food and service. Most everyone there has been there for years and years and… you get the idea. They treat you like family. We started with the shrimp cocktail, and my goodness, whoever had to put those shrimp down are heroes! They were that big! For supper I had the osso buco which was divine and my better half had the breaded pork chops. Soooo much food on those plates. I liked taking a bit of the sauce with osso buco and adding it to a spoonful of polenta. I’m not sure I actually chewed. When I looked over, the pork chops were gone. I think he was picking his teeth with the bones, he was so satisfied. In the end we did get dessert. A lovely creme bruleé chilled on the bottom and toasty on top, with a fantastic whipped cream on the side. If you haven’t gathered from this review yet I will help. John Henry’s is a lovely place to fill your spirit and tummy. It’s up to you to find it. *wink

First off..our server Julie was phenomenal. She set the mood for a great great time. 6 of us had cocktails, salads and dinner. Osso Bucco, magi-mahi, liver & onions. All of it was wonderful. We had a couple of requests with our drinks, extra olives & onions and Julie was extremely accommodating. Celebrated 2 gals birthdays too with wonderful dessert and singing. Wonderful time!!

An excellent choice for an evening meal on the patio. Delicious homemade food served by courteous, well paced wait staff. Marvelous deserts. Can recommend the stop, but would also suggest to call for a reservation.
