Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Hemingway's Cuba offers "spectacular mountain views" and a "great place for a drink." While the menu is limited, the empanadas are "great" and the mojitos are "to die for." Service is often praised, though food quality is inconsistent. Ideal for cocktails and scenery rather than a full dining experience.

    Hemingway's advertises as serving authentic Cuban style food. We had the ceviche which was served with crispy plantain chips and corn chips, I had the bistec (marinated sirloin steak) and my husband had the seafood paella. The side dishes were black beans and rice. Portions were a good size, and attractively plated. Everything was served promptly. There is a nicely curated wine list, and the Portuguese rosé that I ordered was perfect with the meal.

    Delicious food. Amazing service. A bit chilly to go outdoors, but will return to do this in the future.

    The ambiance and service are both very good. However, the food is bland. I would expect great flavors for a Cuban style restaurant.

    Unfortunately this is some of the worst food i have had. Even the boiled white rice was uneditable. The server and manager were nice. No one working there seemed surprised at our feedback. Shame because there is so much good food in Ashville. This is not one of them.

    The guy who waited on us was nice but the restaurant was understaffed, drinks came after food and only after we inquired for a third time. Food was OK but part of our order never came. So we left and had desert at another place. Disappointing. Wanted it to be good.

    It was okay. Ordered soup and it was not hot. Sent it back. Brought it out again … not hot. Lettuce was wilted on salad. Our waiter was nice but new and not use to dealing with diners.

    Our server was excellent, but the food was not that well prepared. My husband got paella and the mussels were not cooked. Great place for a drink and the view, but not to eat.
