Henry's Midtown Tavern



Move over Mint Thai & Sushi. Henrys Midtown Restaurant is coming here to stay. The owner of the highly popular Campagnolo, is opening Henry's on 10th street in Midtown named after one of her dogs.  Henry's Midtown is upscale with a menu centered on chef-driven sandwich creations and other items including craft beer. Kalmanson, who use to own Peasant Bistro restaurant in Downtown, said she picked the 3,000-square-foot facility because, "I think it is the perfect location of what I want to do. I think we can put something really pretty on that corner."


Henry’s will be a casual place with “a chef-driven menu of appetizers, pastas, sandwiches, entrée salads and desserts,” according to the press release. Kalmanson won't discuss details about the food at the moment, except to say that Campagnolo’s, Daniel Chance, will be designing and overseeing the menu. She also notes that Henry’s will serve twelve beers on draft and fifty by the bottle, in addition to wine.

Henry’s will be open for lunch, dinner and late night seven days a week, as well as brunch on the weekends.

This is a great time to open in this spot which has been said to be “doomed” with about 4 previous restaurants going under, but I definitely hope that the new Hyatt hotel across the street, opening in July, will bring Kalmanson and Henry many customers and service.
