About Henry Wong
A long-running Cantonese restaurant in Harborne, Henry Wong operates at a level above the neighbourhood Chinese — and regulars who have been coming for years say it still does. The food presentation is a recurring talking point, and the set menu draws consistent praise for groups celebrating birthdays and special occasions. Prawn toast and honey king prawns are the dishes people keep mentioning, with the kitchen working from fresh, quality ingredients prepared by a team of Chinese chefs. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are genuinely well covered across the menu. Front-of-house is led with warmth — Nic and her team are name-checked more than once for making the welcome feel personal — and the stylishly updated dining room gives the whole evening a sense of occasion that justifies the price point.
Henry Wong earns its romantic reputation through both atmosphere and a serious wine selection — the kind of place where a dinner for two tends to extend well past dessert.
