  • The sweet potato pie is what keeps regulars coming back to U Street's historic greasy spoon, founded in 1968 by Henry E. Smith, who was known as the King of Soul Food, and the kitchen still sends out fried chicken and Southern staples. A second Henry's runs in Oxon Hill, Maryland. Order a slice of sweet potato pie, after a plate of fried chicken.
