"This is one of the last of the Great American Diners, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner in large portions at reasonable prices. This is where you go when you want liver and onions, and your companion craves chicken fried steak. Meatloaf is on the menu, served with mashed potatoes, gravy, veggies and garlic toast for $15.99. Henri's has been around for 53 years - which, in LA terms, approaches forever."
"But things get a lot more down-home than that. The Country Special is a creation out of a daguerreotype America - chicken fried steak with country gravy, three eggs, potato and toast. I haven't seen a Joe's Special since Pluto was a pup, but here it is, a mix of ground beef, spinach, onions and eggs. The corned beef comes with three eggs, as well; three eggs seems to be the default setting at Henri's."
Henri's is not a French restaurant but a long-established American diner founded in 1972, operating for 53 years. The diner serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with large portions and reasonable prices. The menu features familiar comfort-food staples such as liver and onions, chicken fried steak, meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy, and a Country Special with eggs and potatoes. Breakfast is served all day, and three-egg plates are common across many entrées. The space retains neighborhood touches like a California Lottery machine, a pastry case, and framed early menus reflecting its history.
