Hew Parlor & Chophouse

Came to HEW for Thanksgiving day dinner and it was truly wonderful. The food was amazing as was our server. Mostly everyone was so friendly and helpful. It wasn't a big deal... but, the only people who weren't very warm and welcoming were the 2 older ladies seating everyone, they also seemed a bit frazzled and overwhelmed... but, there was a gentleman (who I'm assuming was a manager) that came to the rescue! I went back up to the hostess stand after we were seated and one of the ladies was quite short with me and didn't even bother to ask what the issue was. But, I caught the gentleman on my way back to the table and he quickly inquired about the issue and solved the problem in a flash all with a smile. He was all over the place and so hands on. Kudos to the excellent management 👏 And again, hats off to the chef 🤌 so so good! Our server was also right on top of everything 👏 and the valet was fast and great as well. Thank you HEW for a superb Thanksgiving day experience! We will definitely visit again 😊

Every bite was better than the one before. There were 4 of us and we all ate off each other's plates, so many flavors. Our server was knowledgeable and good natured as we were high energy. Great evening! Today we returned for breakfast. I really wanted shrimp and grits, it wasn't on the new menu. That didn't stop the kitchen, best shrimp and grits ever! Love this place.

Cozy high end steakhouse with a decent wine selection. Super friendly professional service. Nice change of pace spot for a great dinner and drinks at the HiFi rooftop bar upstairs at sunset to finish out a great evening. The 40oz tomahawk is very marbled as a watch out, if you want a lean cut I'd "steer" clear ;)

Shockingly, not great. Beautiful locale, yes. Mediocre food (at least on the set menu for New Years Eve dinner), especially for the prices. Desserts were literally just bad. Super cheap tasting (hard to explain... apricot cake was dry, chocolate "torte" thing was just cheap chocolate pudding put into a tiny overly sweet pie shell with overly sweet caramel and canned whipped cream. Something a 5 year old might enjoy). My 14 year old son enjoyed his steak well enough (it was $95. 🤣). The other dinners (ranged $65-$125) were seriously nothing to write home about. They were "okay." What made the entire experience rather negative was the amazingly bad, bad service. That's what shocked me the most. I can overlook mediocre food and bad desserts, but to pay fairly high prices for all of that and receive terrible table service, too, just was super disappointing. And there really, truly was no excuse. I won't go into the details (other than the room wasn't overly crowded and our server passed our table 20 times without picking up a dirty plate, checking our waters, offering drinks (ever), etc. Maybe he knew the tip was included in the bill (8 of us) and so didn't feel he had to "work" for it. But in the end it was rude. And we are sweet, not-at-all-demanding or complaining diners. I rarely write "bad" reviews, but this one time warrants it. (Oh, and he never mentioned that tip was included, so we all left tips on top of that. After realizing, I called to have those taken off. He didn't deserve another $100+, that's for certain). Disappointing.

This restaurant was recommended to us by some friends and it mostly met the expectation. We ordered the pork belly fried green tomatoes- delicious. For mains we both had steaks- my wife the coffee crusted flank steak, I had the strip. Both were dramatically under seasoned and my wife’s was very undercooked. Once we salted the food it was MUCH better- amazing what a bit of salt will do. We ate in the dining room which was a miss because we found out that there is a rooftop bar overlooking the intercoastal at which we could have dined. The service was average and the decor was also less than exciting. All in all we enjoyed our date night but wouldn’t go out of our way to eat here again. In Dunedin there are many many wonderful places to eat- save this one for after you’ve visited all the others.

What a nice place! People were very friendly, everyone wore masks, it was clean and welcoming! Food at the restaurant was very good, Tomahawk steak was our favorite, perfectly cooked and presented! Flat bread and meatballs as appetizers were also delicious!! Boys enjoyed Old Fashion cocktails, my girlfriend and I really liked MC Queen cocktail. Also, there is a rooftop bar on the 3rd floor, we had drinks and watched sunset after. Perfect night 👌🏻
