During the week, Henri's operates as a sit-down or take-out joint. During the weekends, this beloved spot used to transform into an epic all-you-can-eat-buffet but since the start of the pandemic, their buffet operations have unfortunately ceased.

Some of Henri's most popular appetizers include creamy mac and cheese, spicy chicken wings, and their signature coleslaw.

The barbecue that's offered here will vary depending on the week you visit, but you can always count on the shredded pulled pork and chicken to be available as well as their crispy fried chicken.

And be sure to save room for dessert, Henri's offers some unique twists on classic treats like their incredible cornbread casserole.

No matter what you pack onto your plate, everything here is cooked to absolute perfection. You're guaranteed to find something that will become your new favorite dish.

While there's still no word on whether Henri's will be brining back their beloved weekend buffet, we still think a trip here is worth it. Henri's is open every Friday through Sunday from 12 pm until 7 pm. To learn more, be sure to visit their official site here.
