Hemmingways in Dublin

Had a lovely time today at Hemmingways. Second visit in a month since I first discovered the place and can’t wait to go again and again. I mean, the food is phenomenal, the host is near perfect, and the quiet atmosphere was great! Almost forgot to mention: the seafood medley you see in the photo was beyond great! Whatever magic goes into the sauce, keep doing it!

Lovely family restaurant & quality food. Will be back again soon.

The restaurant is full with happy diners at 6.30pm on a Saturday. There's a lovely atmosphere. The clients range from a baby in a high chair to an octogenarian in a sparkly cardigan eating out with her son. We had a friendly welcome and were offered a choice of tables. The restaurant is small- maybe 36 covers, and every table has guests. It specialises in fish and seafood. There are a small number of other options, but you really need to go with food from the sea here. We shared a starter of tempura prawns with mayonnaise and a ginger soy sauce. The four large prawns came on a bed of salad which was freshly dressed and worked well with the crispy freshly cooked prawns. We both ordered the special- pan fried halibut with a buerre blanc sauce, capers and oven roasted veg. We had a choice of chips or sauted potatoes. The fish was expertly cooked- so moist and flavoursome. The sauce was excellent. The veg were carrot, parsnip and my favourite, beautifully cooked tenderstem broccoli. The service is very attentive and nothing is a bother. My only criticism is that the food came very quickly- we had finished our mains within a half hour of arriving. However, we then took our time with our wine. There's a great buzz here, but some might find it a little loud- the walls are all hard surfaces and the tables are close together.

Oh sweet Hemmingways! Six stars if I could give them. Excellent food, outstanding service, a must go to if you want to treat yourself!

A wonderful meal out with staff very friendly, food outstanding and just a great venue for all your culinary needs. Well done all. Slainte

Really lovely meal, service and atmosphere. Very reasonably priced which adds to a good value for money experience.

A group of six of us went between Christmas and New Year and all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The owner managed a very busy restaurant despite being the only one serving due to illness of supporting staff. Admiral to watch excellent service with a smile. We will definitely return. Highly recommended due to gorgeous food and fantastic service.

Had dinner with my friend and we couldn’t be happier. Big portions and fresh food. Absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back.
