Hemingway's is a great concept. I went with a group for food to go and they didn't treat us any different than those dining in. The hostess/greeter had such a warm disposition it was a joy to watch her execute her tasks. Staff smiled and acknowledged me as they walked by and the atmosphere is eccentric and exciting.

My husband and I came to this restaurant to enjoy our Valentine’s Day dinner and it did not disappoint. We both ordered two different snapper dishes off of the dinner menu and not only the presentation was beautiful, but the food was absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to go back and try something else.
I should also mention that the staff was very friendly

Food is great. Price is a bit high but not too bad. My favorite dish is the Hemingway's Platter. Be careful that this platter is best enjoyed by two people, as there are two slabs of ribs per plate.
