Amazing experience at Heni. We went for the Tasting Menu & it was just delicious.
The service overall was great, but there was a bit of a delay between one of the courses & also to get the check.
Other than that everything went fine. Will be back!

Tried out Heni for date night & went with the tasting menu - such a great choice. Every course was thoughtful, delicious, & beautifully explained. They were also incredibly accommodating of my partner being pescatarian, with a planned replacement for each course that fit seamlessly into the experience. Amber's service & wine pairings were spot on, & her descriptions of each wine really added something special. Just an all-around fantastic night out. Thank you!!!

I think it is ok, but not great if you are looking for a Mediterranean experience. We had tasting menu with alcohol pairings. Service is really great. Cocktails were not to my taste, wines were good, great selection of Lebanese wines which was really nice. Food was a little of a let down, I LOVE Mediterranean food, especially Lebanese & Syrian which have amazing flavours, but the one served at Heni was rather bland. It was still good, but not what I came for. Would recommend for 5a7 style dinner but there are definitely better options for an actual Mediterranean experience.

Partner & I ate here for the NYE tasting menu. The food was delicious & our server was very knowledgeable & helpful. I marked on the reservation that my partner was allergic to shellfish & received a call from the restaurant letting us know that they would make sure it was not an issue with our tasting menu. Highly recommend.

Definitely one of the best additions to the neighbourhood in a while. The tasting menu was impressive, the wine was amazing, & the dessert was stunning. Tens across the board.

The tasting menu was fun & everything tasted pretty good. It's very loud though & the service felt a bit rushed at times. Wouldn't go if you're planning on having a conversation with whoever you're going with.
