Henri on Fifth Launching Brunch This Weekend
Thursday, March 5, 2025 at 8:09AM 
If you haven't yet checked out Henri on Fifth, the new neighborhood spot on the corner of Fifth Avenue and First Street, you should make a point to get over there. The menu is a lot of fun, the food is solid and creative, the price is right, the cocktails are good, and it's clear that owner Binh Douglas, who lives nearby and has a long history in the hospitality industry industry, knows what he's doing.
The restaurant, which opened in January, has so far been opening at 4pm, but starting this Saturday it will be opening at 11am and serving brunch until 4. The menu, which is below (click a larger version) has a nice mix of salads and sandwiches, egg dishes, toasts, oatmeal, lemon ricotta pancakes, and banana French toast. The unique fusion of the dinner menu certainly carries over into this one; the breafast bao (bao buns stuffed with eggs, cheese, and bacon, duck prosciutto, or pancetta) sounds tasty, as do croque monsieur and madame; avocado toast with lemon zest, chile flakes, and garlic oil; and steel-cut oatmeal with coconut milk, chia seeds, coconut milk, and agave (top). The sriracha deviled eggs, a highlight of the dinner menu, also makes a welcome reappearance here. Drink options also sound quite intriguing; I can't think of any other restaurant that will serve you a magnum of sparkling wine with three mixers for $41.
;)
The previous occupant of this space, Aperitivo, was consistently busy during the brunch rush even though the menu was decidedly nothing special. Henri appears to be primed to pick up right where Aperitivo left off, albeit with a far more intriguing menu.

Given Hall and Oates's recent lawsuit in Brooklyn against a business playing off of their name, which is not the first time they have done so, Henri should probably change the "Whole and Oats" header.
I went yesterday, it was an unfortunate experience. I hope they get it together because they were very nice, the space is great.
When we sat down the waitress warned us that the kitchen was a bit behind and the food could take about 20 minutes, even though we only ordered avocado toast and this scrambled egg dish. Ended up taking an hour despite the fact that there were only 3 parties in the whole place the final half hour of waiting. Also ended up with a hair sticking out of my mimosa, which they used flat champagne to make.
It may have just been first weekend jitters. Hope it improves.
Service was a little slow but seems like that is to be expected on "opening" morning...Anyway, the food was scrumptious and overall, a good first effort!
Baluchi's On 5th ave between 2nd and 3rd was packing up yesterday. A for lease sign is in the space now. The area needs another Stone Park - it was an hour and half wait for two but 1pm!
