Henry's Coastal Cuisine

Phenomenal food and great service! The grill octopus was amazing and the Mushroom Wellington was so delicious!

We were staying at the The Hilton - A Water Front Beach Resort, beautiful property. So we went down for brunch expecting nothing less but some delicious food with good service. And it did stand to its name. Not only the food was great but the service was excellent, I wouldn’t have expected anything less. The beach view is just cherry on top.

A great place to grab a bite for brunch. The food is excellent, and the staff are friendly and helpful. There are outdoor seating areas available, which are perfect if you’d like to dine outside. In the evenings, the restaurant plays classical music in the background, creating a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere.

Excellent atmosphere and food. I got stuck in LA because my flight was cancelled so I decided to go to the beach. The server (Jay) was fantastic. The manager came around and spoke with people. The Jazz Pianist (Evan Roth) really set the mood for a great evening. The food was top notch and well plated.

During my stay at The Waterfront Beach Resort, a Hilton Hotel, I had the pleasure of dining at Henry’s Coastal Cuisine — and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment I walked in, I felt such a warm and welcoming vibe. The staff were so friendly, attentive, and made the experience extra special. The food? Absolutely incredible. Every dish was perfectly cooked, beautifully plated, and bursting with fresh, coastal flavors. You can truly taste the quality and passion in every bite. The ambiance was elegant yet relaxed, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a delicious meal with a view. This place is a hidden gem inside the hotel — highly recommended for anyone looking for top-notch food and a great atmosphere. I can’t wait to go back!

Excellent service and dinner was delicious. The ribeye steak went well with a fantastic with a bottle of red wine. The kids had the filet and they have sides to share with the table. Recommend the Mac n cheese and asparagus. The atmosphere was a perfect as we sat outside on pacific coast highway and it was a beautiful evening.

Awesome food, ambiance and service. Vicente was so nice and explained good. The steak, lobster, tuna, oyster, asparagus carrots, mashed potatoes, and the bread were magnificent. Wow wow wow… Thanks tita thea and tito joel for the awesome dinner by Huntington beach

We came for our 1 year wedding anniversary dinner. Beautiful restaurant! Amazing atmosphere/ setting. Workers are attentive and polite. Quick on serving food from the time you order it. Every 6 months rotating menu. Next rotation in 1-2 months. Honest opinion will definitely recommend and come back again!

The Baseline

The Baseline: For a in hotel restaurant (fine dining) must have a good drink menu, excellent starters, fabulous main courses, delectable deserts, and a stellar staff to bring out the experience. Food: Chef Lewis is the Executive chef of the hotel and restaurant and put together an incredible meal for me. My starter was a wedge salad that blew me away. Heirloom tomatoes a thick strip of smoked bacon with a chunk of blue cheese was an amazing. Second course was a charred octopus with fingerling potatoes, bean purée, and amazing sauces. I was going for a surf and turf mode this night and the surf was up. The combination of the sauces, aiolis, and pure mixed well with the octopus. Main was a New York strip with mashed potatoes, mushrooms/onions, and asparagus spears. The steak was rare with a perfect sear and sauced with a a flavorful reduction. The only slight less than wanted part of this meal so far was the thick asparagus spears but that is because of my preference, not on preparation or seasoning of the vegetable. Finally, desert was a pear tart which was so pretty I almost didn’t want to tear it apart and eat it. Almost. The poached pears were delicious and the tart was not overly sweet which made for a nice closure to the meal. Drinks were a flight of High West Bourbon and Whiskey and a Smoked Old Fashion. Really worth trying out and enjoying. Service: Beyond top notch! My server Vicente was amazing and anticipated my wants, needs, and desires. Mei was my bartender and took care of me on my whiskey needs. Tony was the head of house and was welcoming, informative, and made sure I was taken care of. Ambiance: The restaurant is inside the Waterfront Beach Resort, a Hilton property. The inside has a very upscale, welcoming decor that maintains upscale class with a bit of beachside charm. Henry’s Coastal Cuisine blew away the baseline tonight!

Had a nice brunch here to celebrate my Dad’s 68th birthday! 🥳 Service was wonderful and the food was delicious. The hotel offers a discounted rate for valet parking with validation, but I took an Uber since I live down the street. We appreciated the complimentary scones to start the meal that were delicious, and had all 3 offered entrees- the Seafood Udon with Lobster, Steak, and Salmon Salad. They brought out a beautifully decorated cupcake for my Dad’s Birthday. The ocean view from the patio is gorgeous. Thank you! I’ll be back!

It was excellent. It's exceeded our expectations we had a great experience. The truffle butter was amazing! So was everything we had though, the butterfish, the ribeye, the lobster appetizer. It was all delicious. Thank you chef!.

Normally a Hilton breakfast would have the usual of cantaloupe and melon, egg dishes, etc etc. But this breakfast, shoot, I was super happy they went adventurous with chia pudding, lychee, and real healthy options for those with food sensitivity. I will not forget and shall return. Yeah my photo may look "healthy" but when has oatmeal taste this good. Not many provide a lot of options to customize to your taste.

Dining at its finest, would highly recommend this place. We met the very talented executive chef Michael who is very creative with delicious dishes. The wonderful and friendly GM Tony McCarthy made us feel like we were the only ones there, even though the place was full. Our waiter Kyle was spot on, attentive, personable and polite. Thank you for the great food and experience

Our group had a fantastic experience at Henry’s thanks to Amanda anf Tony. We hosted a private dinner for some of our top clients following the first day of a nearby conference, and everything exceeded our expectations. The food was exceptional, and the staff was friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the entire evening. All in all, it’s the perfect spot to host a private dinner — highly recommend!

Love love love this place. We went here for our anniversary dinner and everything was perfect! The wine, the meals, the service and atmosphere were all exceptional, especially the service. Beautiful inside & outside dining, very romantic. We will definitely be bringing our friends here. Thank you all at Henry's!

What a great place for food and drinks. We ate here our first night at the Waterfront and enjoyed the Rib Eye special that was phenomenal. Drinks are well poured and service was top notch. A very fancy experience in a very comfortable environment. On our second night, we started and needed our night with cocktails on the patio. Fire tables were comfortable and the great service continued. Added bonus, they are very dog friendly.

There wasn’t one thing we didn’t enjoy about this restaurant. Vicente was an outstanding waiter. He had complete focus on making our experience great. The food was excellent! They make everything in house. We enjoyed every bite so much so that we went there two nights in a row. We’ll definitely be back!

Seems like a limited menu but for what they do have, Henry’s delivers. The oysters were fresh and tasty. The octopus was a decent option. Service was prompt.

We went on a Wednesday. They have a30% discount on food. Not busy at all. Felt like they were wasting all their money on heating the covered patio. The truffle fries and beef short ribs were good. Extra bread cost money.

Went for brunch, and although the restaurant was nearly empty (only about four tables occupied), the service was unbelievably slow. I ordered a simple plate of fruit, and it took them an hour to serve it! I arrived at 1 p.m. and didn’t leave until 4 p.m. because of the poor service. We also ordered a pizza, and after waiting another hour, the manager finally came to tell us they didn’t have all the ingredients and asked us to choose something else. On top of that, valet and parking were a total hassle. Very disappointing experience.

Table moved from side to side; not balanced. We were sat down right away but no one ever came to serve us. After about 10 minutes I stood up and walked over to the guy who sat us down and asked if anyone knew we were here. He went to call a waitress who didnt know we were there..... Served complimentary bread but was almost frozen in the middle. The waitress said it was freshly made by hand. Hmmmm I dont think so. Food took about 15-20 minutes. From the time I got there to the time my food came i observed two different tables leave because 1) no waiter came to them and 2) the food took forever. Nothing amazing about the food but it wasnt bad either. Water was clearly tap unfiltered (I expect better water from a high end place like this). Overall would never return or recommend. Go outside of the resort for better food.
