Hew Parlor Chophouse - Dunedin

We celebrated a birthday dinner. Service of Julia was excellent. The food was delicious. Unfortunately, we couldn't enjoy it because it was so loud that we couldn't hear each other, even though we raised our voices. If you want to enjoy dinner and entertainment, you will find another restaurant.

We were disappointed mainly because of the ambience. We were there on a crowded Saturday night and the noise level was deaf. My wife and I couldn't hear about the table. Everyone had to scream and voices hurled from the walls. I'm talking about stage level crowd noise. Others also complained and left or switching tables. We had such headaches that we really couldn't enjoy our meal. The food was pretty good. My wife had to scallops and I chose the fillet. Both were cooked nicely. Service was pretty slow, though somewhat understandable considering how many big groups were there this night. It does not guarantee a special trip to feed for us again.

Yesterday evening with the family for dinner. Service and location were excellent. The variety of menus was also good. The quality of food was not the best. Fish had to order extra sauce. The pages were average. NY Strip had a peppercorn sauce that was missing peppermint and on the meat that was not the cleanest cuts for a simple NY strip. Good dinner, but not complete from the chain, as some locals suggest. Many other steak restaurants I would go before returning.

Came to HEW for Thanksgiving Day Dinner and it was really wonderful. The food was amazing as our server. Mostly everyone was so friendly and helpful. It wasn't a big thing... but the only people who weren't very warm and welcoming were the 2 older ladies seats everyone, they also seemed a bit confused and overwhelmed... but there was a gentleman (which I guess was a manager) who came to rescue! I went back to the hostess after we sat, and one of the ladies was quite short with me and didn't even want to ask what the problem was. But I caught the Lord on the way back to the table and quickly questioned the problem and solved the problem in a flash everything with a smile. He was everywhere and so hands. Kudos to the excellent management? And again, hate the cook? All right! Our server was also directly above everything and the Valet was also fast and great. Thanks, HEW for a superb Thanksgiving day experience! We will definitely visit again?

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 ;
