Great caring service. Big portions compared to per dish price. Quick service. Standard diner food options, such as 3 egg omelet and liver and onions. My wife loved her food. She said it's the best, 'like in New York'.
It was all Great Thank you to all who work hard and maintain the restaurant clean especially the decorations they are so beautiful
Very classic American Diner styled food, known for their breakfast. I'd been here once before and had a stomach ache so I didnt really eat, and was excited to come back. Along with one other person, we ordered a waffle plate, a build your own omelette, with a side of bacon and a side order or biscuits and gravy. We got coffees too, which came with free refills. Everything came out in a timely manner, and tasted phenomenal. Would definitely come again.
Stopped in yesterday for my first time and I had the biggest Chicken Fried Steak that I’ve ever had, and one of the better ones I’ve ever tasted. Henri’s is an old school classic LA diner in the valley with great service and fair prices. They have a small free parking lot in the back, but it was full when I arrived so I had to find neighborhood parking. There was about a 20 minute wait when I arrived, but I was dining solo so I took a seat at the counter and was able to sit immediately when I arrived. My server was extremely polite and was extremely fast with the coffee refills. It’s quite large on the inside and they have many different booths and tables as well as a large counter, which is where I sat. For my meal I chose the Chicken Fried Steak Special, which is a larger version of the one that they have on the menu. It was honestly a giant sized chicken fried steak and had a side of hashbrowns and toast and two eggs. It was honestly delicious and a very large meal that I couldn’t even finish. I had a strong cup of coffee on the side all for $25 so it was a very fairly priced and filling meal. I would suggest to anyone and would say that this is one of my favorite diners in the valley.
Claude was so friendly! Him and the other folk working there were a pleasure to talk to. I was there eating breakfast by myself and it was delicious. Not to mention the ceramic dishes were awesome! And the environment in the restaurant is so cozy! 10/10 old fashioned diner to have breakfast.
Henri's Restaurant, December 1st 2024 My daughter's sister and her brother had brought us here for the very first time for "Breakfast" & it was so worth it because the food was so delicious & so filling & plenty of it as you can see & the coffee alone is well worth it also black with some sweetener or sugar yummy! yummy! (We use to live in the valley years ago but we had never came here until now but we will be back definitely!) Thank You & ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s Great Job!
