Henry’s World Famous Hi-Life was an okay experience overall. The ribeye was cooked perfectly to my requested temperature, but it lacked flavor. The mushrooms were a disappointment — they tasted bland and looked like they came from a can.
I did appreciate their seating and service system; we were short on time before the San Jose Sharks hockey game, and our food came out surprisingly fast. Parking was convenient, which was a big plus.
The ribs were tender and had a good portion size even though I only ordered half a rack. The mac and cheese had decent flavor but was a bit watery, and the baked potato was pretty standard — though I did enjoy the touch of local butter and chives.
The place itself is cozy, and walking in through the bar gives you a sense of the restaurant’s long history. Prices are on the higher side considering the limited side options and the quality of the cuts. Overall, a decent spot with fast service, but not quite worth the hype.

Our visit to Henry’s was awesome, just as I remember! It had been a while since I had been there but it had the same feel and the food was amazing as usual! We will be back again soon, for sure. The prime rib and pork chops were delish and the bread is AMAZING!!!

Some friends and I were in town for the Rangers-Sharks game last week – if you are from out of town and looking for a place to pregame, this is about an ideal spot as you will find, in San Jose or any other city. Lively atmosphere (but not to the point where you can’t hear each other), where you’ll get to interact with local fans. Great beer selection. They have a really novel food ordering system where you can order when you first come in, wait in the bar, then when your food is almost ready they’ll bring you to the back and seat you. I had never seen anything like that and it works great. Easy walk to the arena as well.

I went here during my college days ordering the ribs, now years later I couldnt eat as much so I ordered the tri tip sandwich. We were served garlic bread and BBQ. Had a good conservation about whats in it. We sat outside because I had a dog. Our server was attentive and kind, food came out and it was big like a subway footlong. Dog loved pieces of my tri tip. When our bill came we were able to split it. Oh, times change, where my older body couldnt eat just meat. Only suggestion is a TV outside, so I can watch the game with my dog.

One of the oldest and best barbecue places in San Jose, California hands-down it’s right next to the San Jose Sharks Arena so you could eat there and walk to the game if you like there’s also a park right there and it’s located in Little Italy. So Basically you just walk in and you take a number off the wall wait till your number is called then you order your food off the menu on the wall you wait at the bar area until they call you in like usually like five minutes depending how busy they are Friday, Saturday and Sunday are usually really busy. Just a heads up when you sit down you already have a salad waiting for you with your bread and your drinks. The food usually comes about five minutes later. The service is fast And the food is excellent and the staff there are very friendly. Highly recommended one of my favorite places to eat in San Jose.

Their check-in process is a bit unusual, but make sense. When we arrive, we had to get a number. When our number was up, the host came to take our order and we continued to wait at the bar. Then when the table was ready, we got seated and the food came quickly. Unusual, but quite efficient process.
I went there specifically for their prime rib. I would say it was average. The pork belly side order was very good! Their Long Island Ice tea was quite strong.

Love this place! Food is great (but come with a big appetite), you can grab a drink while you wait for your table, and staff is friendly. If you are coming on a weekend it will be very busy, especially on game days, and parking is very limited, but it’s a fun environment and worth the wait!

I ordered a Burger and wasn’t satisfied because I didn’t like the flavor. The manager over heard me talking to my coworker about I wasn’t going to say anything and he brought me a rack of ribs that were phenomenal! Great place great management! Thanks for the ribs!

High-quality steaks, chicken, and ribs in the little italy section of San Jose. A little different setup. Go in and take a number. Wait for your number to be called and place your order, where they’ll take your name. Wait for your name to be called, and you’ll be taken back to your seat. From there, the food comes fast. Note: you order from the wall, but it doesn’t list everything (e.g. – Mac n’ cheese, which is really good). Ribs were great. Sirloin was decent.
