What an amazing atmosphere, from the instant warm smiles when greeted at the door to the beautiful decor. Heni truly is something special. The food taught me something new with every bite. Flavors, cultures, & stories being discovered by the spoon full. Amazing food & amazing people, truly a "Must Go" spot.

The food & atmosphere of Heni felt like home. The menu is seasonal, so everything tastes super fresh. Everything on the menu is curated with a lot of creativity, yet there was something so comforting about each & every dish we tried. Needless to say, the service was fantastic & the hospitality hit close to home. We're thankful for Rami, who was incredible at explaining the story behind the concept & each dish.

Absolutely amazing food. So much flavour & surprises in every dish. We had every appetizer on the menu & each one was delicious on a different way. The smoked tuna appetizer was to die for & the confit eggplant was sublime. Even the old standards like the falafel were jazzed up with herbs, adding moistness & unexpected flavour. We were only able to try two of the mains, but do yourself a favour & get the fish chermoula.
The service was excellent & personalized. Can’t wait to go back & try everything else on the menu. .

Such a great resturant & amazing food. the staff were very attentive & Rami took the time to explain the story behind each dish. Araprt from the delicious food & great space, the best part is that the team at HENI are presenting familiar & traditional foods in a very innovative & unfamiliar way. Everything we had was very well executed, delicious, & light.

Truly a fantastic experience. Comparable to Michelin star! The food itself is incredible - as a member of the middle eastern diaspora, I can attest to the fantastic flavours & dishes which were reminiscent of home but also honoured québécois ingredients. The braised lamb is an absolute must - completely melts off the bone. The dessert (we had blueberry ice cream in turmeric cake) is also not to skip.
Special shout out to Rami the co-partner who took the time to welcome us & explain the passion & care behind each dish & the restaurant as a whole. You made my partner & I feel like family!
A lovely experience overall & highly recommend to anybody in the Saint Henri area.
