My husband and I sat at the bar. It was unusually quiet for a Thursday night. The bartender, Kendra, was engaging and on her game. I got the pasta and meatballs, which were excellent. I was told they recently changed their recipe and I highly recommend them. My husband got the sea bass and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He said he would get it again the next time.

I have been to Hemenway's in the past and this restaurant never ceases to be top notch. The Service (shoutout to Mia!) was fantastic and the food and atmosphere outstanding. I highly recommend Hemenway's. We were celebrating an anniversary and it was pretty cool that our table was sprinkled with rose petals and we were greeted numerous times with a hearty "Happy Anniversary! by a number of the wait staff and greeters(?). Absolutely one of my favorite restaurants anywhere!
