    Excellent food and good value. Friendly and efficient service. We had the lamb burger and lamb curry washed down by two excellent spicy ceasers. Thank you

    I think you should chat with your security person. I know he is doing his job but all I did was approach the hostess to ask a question. He reacted as if I was trying to cross the border without a passport. He relaxed after I asked him to. But it was a very unpleasant moment. But still, if I have a reservation and I see a line to get into the restaurant I think it makes sense for me to go ahead and ask if I should also wait in line. Your security person works at a restaurant, not a gun store.

    I hadn't been back to Hemingway in Toronto for a while and I'm sure glad I spend my St. Patty's Day celebration there. The service was quick and amazing, the waitresses were so accommodating. The live band was so so great and had everyone off their chairs singing and dancing along to the great music. Such an amazing energy and vibe! I'll definitely be going back!!

    All in all it is always pretty good specially the food. It is just too bad that they remove my favourite food in the menu which is the seafood linguini which I was looking forward to have on that day. But still , the food we ordered are really good.

    Hemingway’s is a great place to watch rugby, just watched all three games over Saturday and Sunday. I’m travelling from Australia and found the crowd to be incredibly welcoming, even met a guy who played at the same club as me in the UK. Hemingway’s made my weekend and the food is outstanding. Very strongly recommended.

    The food has gone downhill, and the prices have gone up, which is not a great combination. Grumbling busser, missing toasts, cold tea, one miserable sliced mushroom for a $3 extra... the atmosphere for rugby games is always great but that can't be all there is. I'll go see games elsewhere.

    Food and drinks were good, but the hostess refused when we asked if we could sit at a particular table because she wanted to “keep the flow organized”, I think if there are tables that are not taken yet customers should be able to sit where they want??

    Nice ambiance, energy and cheerful service. Very happy you are keeping your upper patio open with great air circulation. Being careful on behalf of your customers is one of the reasons we choose your Hemingway's over others.

    As a kiwi I love Hemingways vibe of home away from home eg decor. Excellent service - friendly and just the right amount of attentiveness. Salad was plentiful and tasty but grilled salmon a bit sparse. Would love to see a good ol' meat pie as a staple on the menu and/or fish n' chips. Technically was Waitangi Day (as per NZ time -Feb 5 here is Feb 6 down under) so a nod to that might have added nicely to the vibe eg handout on the tables about the Treaty, "kiwiburger" with beetroot, egg etc on the menu as a special for the day. Really appreciate option of covered patio as not easy for covid-neurotics to find places to dine during the winter. Will definitely go again - want to have lamb burger next time for sure!

    The restaurant was near empty The waitress was busy texting and we couldn't get her attention for 10 minutes so my dining partner had to get up to ask for cutlery so we could eat We waited 20 minutes for coffee refill "she was brewing a fresh pot" but forgot about us The lovely hostess called though, when we left an item behind, which we are grateful for. We are regulars here and in fairness this is the first time the service was subpar. We will still come back.

    Food is not bad but not great. Portions are on the small side. The design of the room is such that it doesn’t take a lot of people in there for it to get loud and you have to strain to hear your date
