Henry’s (16850 Jog Rd., 561/638-1949) in Delray, for 14 years a stalwart on the local culinary scene, has undergone a thorough makeover of everything from the acoustics to the menu.
The bar and dining room of Burt Rapoport’s easygoing American bistro sport a more urbane, sophisticated look, thanks to Fort Lauderdale-based designer Pam Manhas, who added striking drum chandeliers, window coverings and more.
There’s a new chef in town too. He’s Che Frey, late of Brule Bistro in Pineapple Grove. While keeping all the dishes that have become Henry’s signatures—after all, you don’t fix what’s not broken—Frey has added some signatures of his own, from bison Bolognese to port-braised short ribs to Chinese chicken meatballs in coconut broth.
Like Hollywood celebrities, restaurants need a shot of Botox after a while.
