The Culinary Force Behind HENRY’S Steakhouse

There is a passionate culinary figure behind every perfectly grilled tomahawk steak, every tender dry-aged cut and every memorable dining experience at HENRY’S Steakhouse stands a passionate culinary figure whose dedication continues to shape one of Bali’s most popular steakhouse destinations: Executive Chef Ernawati Ginting. 

 


In her role as Executive Chef at ARYADUTA Bali, she oversees the culinary direction of the  property's food and beverage outlets, including the renowned HENRY’S Steakhouse. Since joining the hotel in 2018, she has brought a rich culinary heritage inspired by family traditions, blending traditional cooking techniques with modern innovation. 


Renowned for her passion for meat craftsmanship and flavour development, Chef Erna has played a significant role in enhancing the steakhouse experience at HENRY’S. Her expertise in smoking and ageing techniques has transformed the restaurant into a destination where premium meats are treated with precision, patience and artistry. At the heart of HENRY’S Steakhouse lies its signature experience — the perfectly grilled 1.2 kilogram USA Prime Black Angus Tomahawk. Bold in flavor and impressive in presentation, the Tomahawk has become the restaurant’s defining icon, reflecting the bold identity of HENRY’S itself: rich, indulgent, and  unforgettable. 


Under the guidance of Chef Erna, HENRY’S Steakhouse has introduced an exclusive selection of premium smoked and dry-aged meats. Each cut is carefully prepared to enhance its tenderness and intensify its natural flavour. Guests can enjoy an extensive range of premium Australian Wagyu cuts, including rib-eye, striploin, tenderloin, T-bone, outside skirt and flank steak. Each cut is crafted to highlight the meat's unique texture and richness. 

 


Beyond the premium selections, HENRY’S Steakhouse offers an immersive and interactive dining experience. The open Kitchen Bar invites guests to watch the chefs in action, providing a front-row view of the culinary process where fire, smoke, and precision come together in every dish. This interactive concept enables diners to engage directly with the culinary artistry taking place in the kitchen, transforming every meal into a complete culinary journey. 


To complement the premium steaks, HENRY’S Steakhouse offers a curated collection of fine wines, carefully chosen to enhance every dining experience. From bold reds that complement dry-aged beef to elegant wines ideal for intimate dinners, each pairing is designed to enhance the overall dining experience.


Open daily from 11:00 to 23:00, HENRY’S Steakhouse is more than just a steakhouse; it is where premium cuts, dry-aged craftsmanship and an intimate dining ambience come together to create one of Bali's most memorable culinary destinations.
