Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Julia Sullivan

From the OpenTable editors: Chef Julia Sullivan’s chic Germantown bistro is what seafood dreams are made of—the James Beard finalist dazzles with an elegant menu starring the likes of sustainably sourced oysters, Tennessee paddlefish caviar, and a saffron-topped red snapper with Carolina gold rice. Snag a seat at the raw bar for a front-row seat to why GQ named this one of 2018’s Best New Restaurants in America.

    Great food and flavors as always, with the freshest and juiciest oysters and crudo in town. The guitar-double bass duo playing jazz standards live was a very pleasant addition.

    Wow, our party of four thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Henrietta Red’s. It was a wonderful experience filled with delightfully fresh creative cuisine in a shared small plate array. Each dish topped the one before and the sequencing of the dishes was perfection. Our server Teddy was fabulous; gracious engaging and attentive. Teddy has exceptional knowledge of the cuisine snd beverages, plus a warm affirming way of engaging with the diners. This was an all around delight!

    As a regular I went with the favorites, the tartare, spaghetti, caviar dip, crudo, oysters, and a little wine. Scallops are also amazing! Great dinner as always and such a great neighborhood spot.
