Restaurants near Ernest Hemingway Home And Museum

Great restaurant and food. We had the Black grouper special, crab cakes, salads and with a nice Australian Sauvignon Blanc . The food was outstanding and the service was impeccable. After dinner we enjoyed a great duo of 70 Soul singers in the lounge with after dinner drinks. Highly recommended!

Our healing was an amazing fresh catch for both of us that was pan seared with mashed potatoes and green beans! It was fortifying, delicious and over the top fresh

Food delicious, service excellent, highly recommend

The experience was decent overall, but it fell short in several key areas. Our server had an overly intense, high-energy approach, which felt more distracting than welcoming. Additionally, the 2.5% credit card fee left a bad taste—feeling unnecessary and out of place when spending hundreds of dollars on what’s meant to be a fine dining experience. The lobster dish was a disappointment—it was difficult to remove from the shell and smothered in sauce, making it messy and frustrating to eat. The presentation of the fin dish was unimpressive, and the cheese course felt like an afterthought, offering small portions of good cheese bulked up with large chunks of fruit. The saffron sorbet, while attempting to be innovative, missed the mark and didn’t stand out. One of the biggest drawbacks was the concept of a constantly changing menu every 45 days. While it’s an ambitious approach, it made the dishes feel like experimental work in progress rather than perfected, signature offerings. This lack of refinement hurt the overall experience, leaving us feeling like test subjects rather than guests at an established, polished restaurant. On the positive side, the wine list was excellent, though it was disappointing that our waiter couldn’t provide much guidance. The octopus hot dogs were the clear highlight of the meal—unique, flavorful, and well-executed. However, despite moments of promise, the restaurant ultimately doesn’t quite live up to its aspirations, feeling more focused on novelty than delivering a truly exceptional dining experience.

Excellent dining experience with fantastic food and service. Anna always treats us perfect each time we come. Our pups get the royal treatment too…like family, means a lot. I love their tuna entree and hubby really liked the tortellini dish. Most of their home made pastas are excellent. The pups loved, loved their burger. Enjoyable evening overall! Many Thanks!
