Henny’s: The Original Steakhouse – Grand Opening “Walk-Around”

By In Grand Openings
There was a lot of hype before this place has opened and it appears that Henny’s was previously on Staten Island (Sadly way before WhereYouEat was established) and many diner’s were sad to see them go.  So at the first word of “Henny’s Coming Soon to Staten Island” many of you went ballistic with joy it seemed better then a (New Years Celebration??), And poor us are just sitting here, left in the dark as to what is going on and why everybody on Staten Island is so happy? Well, here it is.

The Walk-Around:
The Outside: Has a decent size private parking lot but also state they will offer valet parking
The Inside: Upon entering this “Palace” which features two large dining rooms and a full Catering Hall (Private Parties) on the second floor we are amazed at the quality and feel of just the door (I thought they were closed!!).  There is a customer check-in with coat checker in this first hallway with beautiful decorations and a few very comfortable chairs to relax for a bit.
The Room to the Left:This room offers about 72 Seats and features a Bar.  Another feel of the quality in this room will be when you touch the chairs (I had a hard time moving them to take pictures!!) .  We mean this in a good sense, that you can actually feel the quality that was put into the chair all around this dining area and even around the bar which is also highly sophistically designed.
The Room to the Right: (Steak-House)  Actually walking to the right there are three rooms, one main dining room and two smaller, more private rooms (The photos above should describe a bit).  The Main room features a nice cozy fireplace and also the amazing quality of all the furniture (Sorry we had no need to move any furniture in this room), The smaller rooms features a booth style dining (Good for a larger crowd to sit privately).
The Walkway Upstairs:Walking up a beautiful staircase there is a “Very Mini Lounge” to relax a bit or even watch the view outside during the winter, and during the summer you can actually hang out outside and watch the sunset?  Even the decor of the elevator just looks astonishing.
The Catering Room: Well this room was not really set-up yet so we can’t really tell you how it will look but we can describe that this would be a great place to have any kind of party, It offers a Medium-Sized dancing floor in the center and large round tables.

The MENU: Very unique steakhouse appetizing menu which serves everything from Seafood (Shrimp, Clams, Alaskan King Crab Legs, Shellfish Samplers, Oysters)  to Broiled twin Brazilian Lobster Tails, Pan Roasted Artichokes (OH! My! God!, Looking at the menu I have to keep writing but please view there full menu page), Day Boat Scallops.  Oh wait now to the “Butcher Block” which has everything from Fillet Mignon to Angus Center Cut and Colorado Elk Fillet, Or you may decide to split a 38oz Porterhouse steak for two? Pan roasted rack of New Zealand Lamb with Roasted Garlic and Herb or maybe you prefer the Pan Seared French Cut Breast of Chicken with Prosciutto and Artichokes?

The Sum-Up: Henny’s seems to have the most quality, decor, appeal and thought put into any restaurant on Staten Island and is sure to bring people all over the Tri-state area to try.  There MENU is a big hit and the most “UNIQUE” on Staten Island, The prices look very moderate ($$$).  Henny’s on Staten Island is sure be long lasting as even with our painful economy, a restaurant that puts so much effort and seems to make everything so perfect will be sure to get people out to try, and yes we will be writing a “Critic food review” very soon as we can’t wait to try.

Please understand this is not a “Review” of this establishment, this is a “Grand Opening – Walk Around”.  The Food was not yet Reviewed.

WoW!
This restaurant will get people from all over NY and NJ into Staten Islands can be the Sum-Up of the way this restaurant looks and feels,  This restaurant has already received a “HOT SPOT” listing even before we review it.  Hot Spot is due to the “Quality of Materials”, and each Restaurant Hot Spot Listing has a special reason which we list.  But please remember this is just a Walk-Around as it is a grand opening and not a review.
