    There was a shard of glass in my drink. I brought this to managements attention and they did not seem concerned. They offered to comp a drink for me and then charged for it. Terrible service and low regard for safety.

    This is a great spot but is regularly understaffed. We had to wait 15 for our reserved table and then another 25min before our Server could get to our table. The staff were all working very hard so we still gave high tips but it was woefully understaffed on the patio for a nice day. Pack your patience if you go but a good spot if you have the time.

    Hard to believe that a pub could make such a terrible club sandwich. Tiny bit of very dried out chicken (?). Bacon was so well done (I’m positive it was deep fried) it had to be returned. Replacement was marginally better. It was lunch so didn’t send back again and order something else. Served was very nice !

    Excellent service. Three folks. Pad Thai good. Chicken Souvlaki good. Mexican bowl good. Nice serving sizes-not excessive. Upstairs patio fun but very loud. Oh and excellent service!!

    Our server was attentive and charming, and offered helpful suggestions. The guide dog was welcomed and accommodated. The food was excellent and it wasn't very noisy, which we appreciated.

    Service was excellent yesterday. My guest is a celiac and our server made sure her meal was gluten free. I go to Hemingway’s a lot and yesterday the chef created hearty meals which was a change from lunches of the past.

    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.
