Restaurant of the Year Readers’ Choice Winner: Henley
New Bar Program of the Year
Henley, Midtown
It’s been a strong year for new bars and bar programs in Nashville, but the creations from Henley’s head barman Jonathan Howard were real standouts. Howard’s challenge was to create cocktails that could match the inventiveness and complexity of executive chef R.J. Cooper’s dishes, and he certainly stepped up to the plate, utilizing ingredients and flavor combinations that kick things up a notch from the usual offerings.
