    This was our first time there. Will not be our last. From the greeting at the door to the incredible service at the table, everything was perfect! Our server Robert, was friendly and helpful and took care of everything. Highly recommend asking for him. You will not be disappointed! Food was spectacular. Lobster Mac and Cheese is a must!

    Excellent evening at Hemenway Restaurant - from service to food to venue. The restaurant is very busy, and it is essential to have a reservation. We were seated in a back room which was away from the hustle and bustle and very nice. We had the bacon wrapped scallops and the braised pork belly for appetizers, the mixed green salad, and for entrées the paella and the seafood casserole. Everything was excellent. The paella was a bit spicy; the seafood casserole was the best ever - lobster, shrimp, scallops, cod and lots of cheese. Flourless chocolate cake was very good.

    Our waiter Danny was exceptional and created the best dining experience I’ve very had. I can’t stress how important service is to me. The food was incredible as well
