    The best Oriental style food in the area. Been wanting to go for a long time. Last evening was the chance. Building is historic, food and service good? recommend. Will try their Sunday buffet.

    Have not been to the restaurant recently but when did it was excellent. However it is the only takeaway where my son has been able to have one. He has some severe allergies and (with the exception of Friday & Saturday when too busy,) they will use fresh oil. It also tastes good too. Pleasant staff even when busy including Henry. Definitely worth a try.

    Great food, friendly staff. Also good when food is ordered as a takeaway! Henry’s is probably one of the best Chinese restaurants in the area.

    We come here regularly as we've never had a bad experience. The food as always was lovely. Had the sharing platter to start then crispy chilli beef. Service was brilliant and the staff were very friendly. The little fairy lights create a lovely atmosphere.

    I have been using Henry's for several years now and I have never had a bad experience. Henry seems to be strict with his staff which makes things run very smoothly despite always being very busy. Good work!!

    Loved it! The peppered salt squid, sweet and sour Hong Kong style, prawn toast and duck was amazing. Cooked to perfection. I really liked the decor as tastefully styled and with Christmas decorations. Very friendly staff and well priced. The hoisin sauce was delightful and tender duck, all with the right amount of crisp and soft meat. I will definitely be heading back, I had a takeaway with a friend before so thought I would try the restaurant and I'm glad I did. Just to add to this review, I went back to try more dishes, very authentic to Chinese cuisine, the Pak choi in garlic and oyster sauce was great as well as the lemon chicken.

    Henry's Oriental Chinese was absolutely amazing. Very bubbly and friendly staff. The food we could not manage to eat was put in to boxes to bring home. Would highly recommend.

    Tremendous four course dinner on New Years Eve, all the staff delivered welcoming and professional service throughout the evening and all the food was absolutely delicious. Thankyou Henry & team, it was great evening, topped off by lovely tunes from the pianist.

    Ah-maze-balls. The blonde - too much adorbs. Henry? Gentleman AND a scholar. Sesame chicken toast? Better than sex!

    I've been visiting Henry's for many years and can happily say I've never had a bad experience. As someone with a nut allergy I often have issues in restaurants trying to decipher what I can and cannot eat; but here my food is already pre-ordered to be cooked in separate pans in order to minimise criss contamination. With every staff member smiling and the owner himself seeing to every table this is truly a special place to visit.

    Looked after the grandchildren well with a colouring competition for Halloween which my granddaughter has entered And special chop sticks for my husband tied together a warm friendly place I had intended to press a five star sorry the food was hot and delicious wish the plates had been a bit larger to save going back to the buffet twice 😊

    Coeliac friendly with excellent service and huge attention to detail with allergen menus. First time here and it was such a delight to be able to order such a wide range of food, especially at an oriental restaurant. This is definitely going to be a regular choice for us now. Highly recommend the Singapore Slings too!

    got a large takeaway with all sorts in to cater for mixed bag of people eating... everything from starters to mains. The food in Henrys always used to be excellent & completely faultless, but I found that tonight the quality was not consistent.. the vegetable and rice dishes were good.. but not as good at they used to be... and the meat dishes lacked flavour/ seasoning + meat was overcooked/not tender. This is most unlike Henrys?... Perhaps the usual chef was not on? .. sad to report that overall experience was average and not a cut-above the rest like it used to be.

  • 5/5 Janey C. 6 months ago on Google
    One of the best meals out I have had in a while. Had set meal D, plenty of tasty and varied food for £26 pp. The staff seem to be really well trained so the service is excellent. Take cash so you can leave them a nice tip! Recommended

  • 5/5 S P. 2 years ago on Google
    Super restaurant. Lovely staff, chilled atmosphere, great food and cocktails from bar below. Henry has a great rep locally and he didn't disappoint. Only ever had takeaway due to lockdown but restaurant was spot on. Thank you for a great evening!

  • 5/5 Jules 4 months ago on Google
    Such a lovely restaurant. Food was well presented and tasted delicious. Staff very friendly and happy to help. The room looked pretty with fairy lights and had a warm feeling to it. I'm going again soon.

  • 5/5 LOUISE C. 8 months ago on Google
    For me and my partners first time at the restaurant we found the service absolutely fantastic the waiters was very on point with my dierty issues and helped me with what i was choosing by giving me a menu full of dishes that have all allegiance to people. He helped me guide through what i was choosing to make sure it had nothing i was intolerant to. He also came back from The chefs after checking to makes sure that my food i had chosen was fine for me and to make sure everything was ok they were on point with it all and we was well looked after. The food was delicious and i couldnt recommend a better place for fantasic service and food.

  • 5/5 DinoDudeRocket 2 years ago on Google
    Food was great, reasonably priced, and the waitress Chelsea was lovely.

  • 5/5 Andrew W. 2 years ago on Google
    Love Henry's. Always good food and very reasonably priced for a Chinese restaurant. Have eaten here many times and enjoyed a takeaway too. The Sunday buffet menu is particularly good value.

  • 2/5 Justin S. 8 months ago on Google
    Whilst the service and the starters were fine, my main dish, Szechuan Beef, had a distinct urine smell that put me off. Im told this can be the bamboo shoots. Asked for no peppers or onions found 2 in the dish along with spring onion in the fried rice. I don't complain about food, to the people that handle my food so.. left really unimpressed. Also why do you need so many waiting staff? Served by so many different people! Feels really impersonal. Honestly wish Id just gone to my local takeaway, food is better and cheaper to boot.

  • 2/5 Steph 8 months ago on Google
    Disappointing, lacking authentic and rich flavours. I was expecting this to be better than a standard Chinese takeaway, but it wasn't as nice as a really good takeaway! The service was polite, but fake, from people who said polite words without real warmth (other than one genuine lady who greeted and seated us, and may have been a manager!) Won't go back, we'll vote with our feet!

  • 5/5 Hannah Marshall (. 8 months ago on Google
    A great find while a weekend away! I highly recommend the hk style, sweet and sour. The service was great, and if we are ever this way again, we would definitely visit again.

  • 5/5 Palarcand 1 year ago on Google
    I was there last year, celebrating my 30th birthday. The place was lovely, the food was really tasty and the staff was very kind. I'll come back this year for my birthday again :D

    Food & Service superb!!! We ate here on a Friday night as a group of 4. Didn’t know what to expect, but it was absolutely delicious. The food was hot, tasty and a good portion. The service was second to none, very attentive and polite! Would definitely recommend to anyone!!

    We had such an incredible evening at Henry’s Oriental last week!! We went on a Saturday evening and we were originally going to drink a pint whilst ordering to take away but decided to see if we could eat in. They managed to squeeze us in and you could see they were busy but that truly didn’t affect the quality of service at all. We were sat in a lounge area that had a film on a TV the size of my car but we waited less than 5 minutes before being sat at a table that had prawn crackers ready to go. Soon after we ordered a couple of cocktails that came from the lounge next door and then we ordered our food! We went with the five spice chicken to start which tasted amazing and very clearly in a fresh and light batter. We were also given a finger bowl too! My partner ordered the egg fried rice and orange chicken and he said the rice was possibly the best he’d had. I ordered the fried Singapore style vermicelli and the beef sizzler with a sweet garlic sauce. I don’t even know how they made the beef so tender but it melted in my mouth and the noodles had amazing chicken and pork in it too which tasted JUST as good the next day. The portion of noodles could definitely be shared but I was glad to be able to take it home so my experience with them lasted longer. The whole way through the evening all of the wait staff were attentive, efficient and helpful! We have already decided this is where we’ll bring friends and family too because we’re new to the area and SO pleased we’ve found a place. Will absolutely be visiting again thank you so much!

    Who would have thought this treasure of a place tucked away on the second floor of a hotel in a place I never heard of. But you really must visit, the service food and place are incredible. We will be returning

  • 5/5 L C. 9 months ago on Google
    This place is my mum’s go-to. I have always struggled, being a vegetarian, to find places to find authentic good tasting Chinese/Asian food. My family are all meat eaters, so finding somewhere to accommodate both, especially in Yate, is really hard. Henry’s always have 10/10 service, advise what is vegetarian and even go the extra mile to make dishes vegetarian. Service is honestly the best for any restaurant / takeaway in the area/most of Bristol. The crispy broad beans are the best too (nobody is allowed to share these with me). The meal I had tonight, especially the Pak Choi, took me back to travelling around SE Asia. If I could give this 10 stars, I would.

    If you fancy some really good Chinese food, and want to experience amazing service then this is the place for you. All the staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive throughout the meal. We didn't even have to wait to order more drinks as they were with us before our glasses were empty. The food was amazing, all served quickly and the crispy duck (for the pancakes) was shredded for us at the table, which was a lovely touch. Looking forward to going again - apparently the Sunday buffet is great so that's my next visit!

  • 4/5 Bethany C. 4 years ago on Google
    Could not fault the food it was amazing. The only thing I will say is that the owner himself was very rude to a member of staff while she was tidying all the plates away from our table because she accidentally spilt something on the table. Was not impressed about the way he handled it as he did it in front of the whole table I felt so sorry for the young girl I think she was very embarrassed. I hope he dosent treat all his staff like that.

    Free delivery if isolating and they take all precautions - calling when it is ready and left where you want it. Great food too ?. Could not have asked for more.

  • 4/5 David F. 5 years ago on Google
    Restaurant located on the first floor of an old inn (George Hotel) on Broad Street. I suppose it’s good for larger parties but for couples, it lacks that cosy atmosphere. When we asked about MSG content, the waiter said it’s added by default but it could be removed for most dishes. We ordered several dishes and they came out very quickly. Service was very good. I live in different parts of China for some of the year but this style of food was not to my liking. It tasted OK but the dishes we ordered had over-thickened, starchy sauces. This included the pak choi with garlic and the Schezuan chicken which was too rich and salty. We’d go back and ask them to make the food a bit different for our tastes. We asked for Tsing Tao bottled beer but it arrived pre-poured in a glass. We’d have preferred to pour ourselves.

  • 5/5 Fleabitten G. 4 years ago on Google
    We use the takeaway service. Food is excellent. Thank you Henri and staff.

  • 2/5 The honest c. 4 years ago on Google
    Food is nice but the owner barks orders at the poor staff and doesn't give any eye contact. The bar is a mess because it is used for a desk. Needs a massive tidy up. No idea whats going on with the 'living room'. Why is it there? looks like a space to store things and randomly has a sofa and TV.

  • 5/5 Christine C. 4 years ago on Google
    Henry knows I'm one of his biggest fans, and most of our family ocassions have been celebrated here - though not often enough! The lovely historic building housing The George pub on ground floor (equally nice place to spend an evening) with high-street (or nearby carpark) makes it stressless to visit. Service is speedily attentive and the marvellous tasty food..... suffice to say, on our fist visit many years ago, I offered to adopt his chefs! Henry has even managed to improve on perfection. Highly recommended - do eat here, as you won't regret it.
