    Excellent food and service can be a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Seafood is incredibly fresh the raw bar is fantastic. My personal favorite restaurant.

    One of our favorites and special occasion spots! Celebrated our Wedding Anniversary this time around, seated in a booth per our request in the reservation notes and pleasantly greeted with rose petals on our table + a Happy Anniversary from our lovely server! Food was absolutely amazing as it truly is every 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!
