    We ordered Haddock and lobster pasta and left a bad taste in our mouths. I think they need to change the oil they are using. Service was excellent.

    From the initial greeting to actual seating the staff was superb, upon leaving the host helped me put my arms into my coat. ( what a gentleman). The waiter was timely, professional and our meals were served with rose petals on the table , as it was our anniversary... This was a stellar event that all should have at least once in life.... Hemenways- Superior Service !!!

    We took Dad to lunch to celebrate his 95th birthday. The restaurant and all the staff went out of their way to make him feel special with welcoming birthday wishes. Our server was excellent and even treated Dad to Baked Alaska dessert, flaming rum and all, to mark the occasion. The food, service, and ambiance was fantastic and it made for a wonderful celebration. Thank you so much!

    This was our first time there. Will not be our last. From the greeting at the door to the incredible service at the table, everything was perfect! Our server Robert, was friendly and helpful and took care of everything. Highly recommend asking for him. You will not be disappointed! Food was spectacular. Lobster Mac and Cheese is a must!
