Reviews for Henry's Soul Cafe in 1704 U St NW, WA
Today I ordered, baked chicken, mash potatoes, greens beans, fried chicken wings, Mac & cheese , green beans and a slice of... sweet potato pie. The Green Beans and Mac & cheese was very very salty on first taste so I couldn?t eat them. The sweet potatopie was super sweet and vanilla extract is all you could taste. You can tell the pie is super sweet from the Clear Jelly looklike a bunch of sugar. I don?t know why the food is soooo different from the Oxon Hill location but it?s nothing close to OxonHill. It?s been years since I?ve been to U st . And I?m not sure I will be back after today. It was a waste of money on bothdinners because of the green beans, Mac & cheese,and the slice of Pie. Read more
It is not much to say. The food was just ok. I had the baked half chicken. And I did not get a half chicken. The reason I gave... it 3 stars is because the food was a little too salty for me. Still looking for my go soul food spot. Read more
Wanting some true soul comfort food. Henry's came up when I did a Google search. It's been at least 5 years since I've been... there but let me say that it's always good to go back someplace you have been and not be disappointed. I ordered the smotheredchicken which you can have the chicken baked fried, I chose fried with macaroni and cheese and string beans. My oldest orderedthe smothered turkey wings with mac & cheese and collard greens. My youngest I got him the fried chicken with mumbo sauce, mac& cheese and greens. The dinners were absolutely delicious and just as I remembered flavorful, plentiful in portion size, Icould not eat all of mine and actually have lunch for today. Everything was seasoned well and we throughly enjoyed our meals.Henry's is known for their sweet potatoe pie and I am not a big lover of sweet potato pie but I tried the pie and I willdefinitely say I will be getting more. The pie was absolutely awesome. I recommend Henry's as I would have years ago if askedabout a good soul food place to eat from and I am definitely going back. Thanks to Henry's Cafe staff for the wonderfulexperience and giving me exactly what I wanted great southern down home comfort food. I'll see you soon. ???? Read more

Found this place through a search for soul food. I went with three friends hoping to have a nice, sit-down lunch, but we were... disappointed to find this is a takeout shop. The cashier, however, immediately spotted our predicament and had someone from thekitchen take 4 chairs and two tables outside so that we could enjoy a sit-down outdoor meal. We ordered the steak sub, the8-piece fried chicken box, the BBQ ribs, and the sliced turkey with a side of collard greens and mac and cheese. We alsoordered 3 peach cobblers and 1 sweet potato pie. Total bill around $70. The food in general was very good, and the portionswere enormous. Only issues were the collard greens and mac and cheese were pretty salty, although my friend liked the salt inthe collard greens. The mac and cheese was also a little dry and crumbly, and I like mine dripping with cheese. Peach cobblerwas outstanding, as was the sweet potato pie. Read more

Went by weekly to take dinner to a friend after church. The last time I went, I ordered on an app, which the manager refused to... honor after viewing the screenshot of the order and the debit from my bank account. This site lost a loyal customer. Read more
