Came on Mother's Day for late lunch, last minute thing, sat outside enjoying the nice breeze. Wife loved her martini and chicken sandwich, I enjoyed a nice glass of wine with the prime rib and our 6 year old son devoured the beignets. Our waitress Bailey was very good and the whole experience was top notch. We will definitely return... More

I came here for prom and had made reservations. We arrived about 20 minutes early and they seated us right away (which really impressed me). The service was very good and the food was delicious! The atmosphere is wonderful, where you can just sit, not feel rushed, and talk. I will definitely come here again!

Attending a conference, a friend of mine suggested Hennen's. The restaurant is very open. High ceilings, lots of wood. Great wine selection. Menu is diverse and outstanding. My only complaint is the volume...and for that reason would not make it a date night spot. A great place for gathering with friends but just too loud to be enjoyable when you... More

if you are visiting Chattanooga, Hennen"s Steakhouse is a MUST! For a warm up try a shot of their Prichard"s Tennessee Whiskey. Prolly not heard of them, but they join only Jack Daniels and George Dickel as one of only 3 existing TENNESSEE WHISKEY DISTILLERS. Chef is fabulous. Asked for my steak Horseradish Encrusted. Check out the photo. This restaurant... More

Steak and salad was excellent with prompt service. The beignets with mocha creme was fantastic. Nice way to end a day.

My husband and I recently stayed in Chattanooga for a couple's overnight. We asked locals on the street where they eat (best way we've found to find great food!), and they both suggested Hennen's. Delicious! Wonderful atmosphere, great wine list, delicious calimari that was crisp and not rubbery. The cauliflower soup was perfect... just the right amount of parmesan was... More

Cauliflower soup was delicious! Very memorable. Should have added a little parsley on top or Green onions for color. It was the same color of the bowl and in the dim lighting I actually tipped the bowl looking to see what was in it. Another bowl of soup or a refill would have been much appreciated. My house salad was... More

Hennen's is my favorite restaurant. Whether Steak or Seafood, the food is exceptional. Dinner at Hennen's followed by a walk across the Walnut Street Bridge makes a nice date.

We were looking for some home cooking (comfort food) but the place recommended to us was closed so we decided to try Hennen's since it was right there. I'm glad we did. It's a little pricey but the food was worth it. Be sure to try their filet. We would definitely eat there again if we are in the area.
