Hemenway's Seafood Grill & Oyster Bar Restaurant Review

Hemenway's manages to be both very old-fashioned and quite of-the-moment. The old-fashioned part is the food. This is a classic New England "seafood" restaurant in the sense that the owners search out sparklingly fresh fish from local waters and treat it simply. No New Age-y creations here. You can order a classic fried fisherman's platter or up the ante with oil-poached mahi mahi. Lobsters...

Believe the hype about this classy fish market and restaurant. Or eat some shellfish and become a convert.

I recommend Hemenways for a great business lunch. Delicious food, efficient and pleasant waiter. The meal was well paced. We were done in 75 minutes- a relaxed but move along lunch. I would definitely return!

While the staff was friendly, the food and service was not the best. We were seated right away by a friend host. Our food came out in a timely manner. However, the calamari, while tasty, was quite greasy. My daughter's filet mignon was VERY rare....
