5 Reviews on “Hemingway’s Restaurant & Wine Cellar”
We went as a big group this evening. We had booked well in advance. What a horrible disappointment this place was. The following went wrong:1. They had run out of large bottles of still and sparkling water, 3 whiskeys we asked for and gin. The wine cellar was also really bare. 2. It was really hot so we asked for the aircon to be switched on and were told it has not worked in ages.3. Despite the restaurant being practically empty, we had to get up 3/4 times to get service. 4. After we had ordered it took over an hour to get our food even though we followed up several times. 5. I personally had the pork belly. The menu stated it came with bok Choi and an array of other things. All it came with was some kind of smashed potatoes. The pork itself was dry and tasteless – although the crackling was crispy – the one redeeming factor6. We asked to speak to the manager. Eventually someone arrived about 30 mins later and said the GM was not there and please to put our complaints in an e-mail so that they could get more staff
Friendly and efficient staff with a focus on service. We were there on a Tuesday night (they’re closed Sunday and Monday) and our only disappointment was that some popular items on the menu were sadly not available.
I took some foreigners for a nice dinner in centurion and based on the good ratings I chose Hemingway’s. What a disappointment and embarrassment for our country. They were out of almost all fish on the menu. The wine cellar, which they supposedly have won prizes for, was empty and no wine available from the wine list. The food took two hours and was ok at best and our waiter disappeared never to be seen again.
Similar to previous reviews. The food lacked seasoning. Very underwhelming. Service on the slow side. Some wine and port not available even when listed on the menu. Chocolate fondant also not available. Why would you then put it on the menu? Would definitely not be back.
Ordered a burger and prawn linguini pasta. Creme brulee for dessert was delicious. Very good food made and presented well. Attentive waiter. Quaint restuarant ❤ Loved the decor, setting and beautifully soothing music.
