Patio season has started and Hemmingway’s rooftop patio is one of the best in that neighborhood. The food is just okayish but the service and patio is worth it for repeat visits.

The room is beautiful with comfortable seating and interesting decor living up to the Gatsby name. Service was fantastic and food was very good. Almond French toast was very unique and tasty. Organic eggs + bacon was very good. I had the eggs Benny with peameal and it was also good. The only complaint was portion size. The restaurant could include more toast or home fries to make it more fulfilling. I left still hungry even after finishing my kids scraps that they didn’t finish.

While the lasagne is a standout, the rest of the menu is equally impressive and not to be missed!
