Sample what Macau was like before the transformation to gambling world pinnacle. Nestled near the waterfront in the original part of Macau is a restaurant that has been serving up its version of Portuguese food since 1976. Everyone goes for the African Chicken but there is a lot more on offer. A good distraction and outlet for those wanting to... More

Refreshingly good, this restaurant serves Macanese and Portuguese food. The bacalao with potato and onions was a hit! Not a big place so you still feel it has retained its own character despite being a 'Maxim's restaurant'. Good value for money, but portions are huge so beware.

A group of us ate at Henri's whilst visiting Macau for the day. The staff are welcoming, and managed to squeeze us in. They really pushed one or two things on the menu, pointing them out several times. One of these items was Henri's 'famous' African chicken, which two people in our party ate and enjoyed. The food was pleasant,... More

Nice atmosphere with very polite and helpful staff. Tried some fish balls only, and with fresh cold beer it was pleasure. If you like African Chicken (as i do), they have recipe printed already on towels. So do not forgot a pen ;)

Living in Macau, I have dined at Henri's on a few occasions, sometimes entertaining business customers, and I will never hesitate to book at Henri's. The food is consistently excellent, with reasonable prices, and the staff are knowledgeable and helpful at all times.

Don't be deceived by the look of this place. The menu doesn't look too appetizing as well, plus the portion of the picture on the menu is hard to judge. The African chicken that they are famous for is really something worth trying. I was impressed by their sauce since I never tasted a combination like that...coconut, peanut, spicy, garliky... More

We ordered African Chicken, Ox Tongue in Red Wine Sauce, Stuffed Crab and Baked Porkchop. My favorite was Ox Tongue. I was pleased with having tried Portuguese food, but it wasn't a WOW experience.

We went to Henri's Galley for an early dinner on Christmas Eve, since we were in Macau for the day. We were seated quickly and the service was excellent. The African Chicken was delicious, but the Beef Ribs were tough. The sauteed veggies were also good. We thought that the wine was overpriced at around $40 US for a bottle... More

This is a family restaurant now run by the original owner's son; he happened to be in the restaurant while we were there and made soem great recommendations. You can tell that the waiters also all enjoyed their job and interacting with the diners... everything we asked for was very quickly addressed, even after the owner had left! Start your... More

Many reviews said this is the first restaurant which invented African Chicken, so I made a visit and ordered a couple of things, cod fish balls, seafood soup, salad and their African Chicken, I recommend the chicken and cod fish balls that I saw the chefs did make a lot of efforts on it.
