Hemenway's Restaurant Providence Reviews
It's rare when a restaurant steals money from its customers
It's rare when a restaurant steals money from its customers but in this case Hemenway's did so to me. On 10/18, I ate at the East Bay Grille in Plymouth where 2 lb. boiled lobsters were $36 complete with an ocean view. On Sunday 10/19, I en
Another 5 star happy hour at a signature PVD locale.
A worthy martini, that was. A proper pour. And we split a lobster pasta dish to die for. Best to Uber there...service is world class. Enjoy!
A staple restaurant for our family.
Tuna Tartare had flavors of citrus and pear, so refreshing + clean. We have had the surf + turf, salmon, scallops + desserts here. 10/10 the view is also very positive addition to the experience
3 stars.
Absolutely beautiful restaurant located at the School of Public Health. Service was good. Very personable staff. The lobster roll and truffle fries were a miss for me. The warm lobster roll had zero flavor and was served room temperature. Not tasty
Lively seafood restaurant in a great location but the menu seems overworked.
My wife and I had eaten at Hemenway's some time ago. We decided to visit again with another couple on a Wednesday evening. The place was full and quite lively. We were seated in a rather out of the way table. I suppose a benefit was that it was
This place is romantic.
The service is just wonderful. And we had a warm New England clam chowder !! Lobster with warm lemony butter... the best. Will be back !!

Due to the wind, it was too chilly to eat outside, so we opted to dine inside at the beautiful Hemenway's restaurant. It was a blustery clam chowder day. Derek was our waiter, and we ordered: * Bowl New England Chowder $12 * Cup New England Cho
I want to go back for little next, I'm gonna have shower.
They know how to open them and they know how to keep them refrigerated so you don't get sick on raw shellfish it's good. I am not been since before COVID-19.
One of the best dining experiences I have had in a while.
From start to finish the service and food was phenomenal. Starter, main course, and dessert was enjoyed by all four of us.
Beautiful restaurant and delicious food
This is a beautiful restaurant and the clientele seemed pretty upscale; however, we stopped there after arriving at the Providence airport. They didn't treat us any differently than any other person even though we were dressed very casually. T
Hands down, this is a must visit if you're in Providence.
The service is good, the food is fantastic and the atmosphere is cozy while remaining fine dining. My scallop dish had 7 perfectly cooked scallops! My cup of lobster bisque had a generous amount of meat, definitely more than a garnish. Good cocktail
Absolutely wonderful experience
My husband and I are in Rhode Island every couple of months, and we’ve had a hard time finding good places in Providence, that is, until our recent meal at Hemenway’s. The space is very attractive - tall windows and high ceilings are always a plu

This was a little fancier than I expected; Hemenway's is an old-school steakhouse that has much of the formality you would expect at that type of restaurant. There are huge floor-to-ceiling windows that let in lots of light even if you don'

Great restaurant that has been the top restaurant in the area for years. Really nice inside and the lobster is to die for! We had a great dinner there, we shared a steamed lobster and our friends had a stuffed lobster. Both were excellent! Cocktails
I went to Hemenway's as a group of four for a girl's dinner.
We had a reservation for an early dinner and the restaurant was quiet despite it being a Waterfire night. We all ordered cocktails and had a few oysters and calamari for an appetizer. The oysters were delicious! They gave a mix of what they had that

Spectacular birthday meal, cocktails and waitress!!!!!!
Tonight, I celebrated my 62nd birthday with my husband and my niece. I began with a cocktail named "Oh Cherry" that was fabulous!!! We split the "Rhode Island Style Calamari" which was just a tad better than average. Our meals,

Food is good.
Went with my partner for a birthday occasion. Service is average. Ambiance is fake upscale. Do not stress about proper attire like it states on their website. Families dined in with sweatpants, hoodies and hats. If you want to treat yourself to a fan

Went there last Saturday and got there a few minutes after 11:30! Service was superb! We liked the Rhode Island Calamari, but that's about it. We ordered 3 other dishes (clam chowder, pork chop and paella), and to be honest they were ok. But wanna hi

Hemenways is a gem.

If you're in Providence, you have to eat at this restaurant.
Everything about this restaurant was wonderful, starting with our server, Juan. He was friendly, helpful, and never rushed us. The bacon wrapped scallops were the best appetizer I ever had (even my colleague who doesn't like scallops loved these). Th

Annual Tradition Coming to an End?

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Hemenway's Restaurant Providence at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Hemenway's Restaurant Providence page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Hemenway's Restaurant Providence to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Hemenway's Restaurant Providence!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
