I’ve now visited Hemma Hemma for dine in and carry out and they knocked it out of the park both times. The atmosphere and service are lovely, and my carry out order was ready when I arrived-each component packaged separately so they didn’t get soggy on my drive. The Caesar salad is simply one of the best in city-thick shavings of parm and miso in the dressing make it wonderfully salty, and the broccoli and panko make it nice and crunchy. I think about it at least once a week. Make your way here expeditiously.

I had lunch at HH on Friday and breakfast on Saturday. My experience was wonderful both days. The food and atmosphere are amazing. Melika is amazing as are all the other staff. The cinammon roll we had was amazing. All of the food is exceptional. We love Yoli and the tortillas for our burrito were amazing.

I've done breakfast, lunch and dinner at this incredible establishment! It's so freaking good! I have dietary restrictions, and I'm so grateful for such a large menu with healthy options for me, that don't feel like an afterthought. I LOVE that there are feminine hygiene products and little touches in the girls bathroom that are smart. Above all, we loved our server, Omni (apologies if I botched the spelling)! She was so sweet and so helpful in chatting about the menu. Her personality made our experience that much better! Can't wait to be back again and again!

Hemma Hemma is located in an historic stretch of Waldo called the Romanelli Shops just south of Wornall and Gregory. There is ample parking along the street and in their personal parking lot.
When you walk into this lovely place, you’ll notice that the residents of the Brookside and Waldo neighborhoods LOVE Hemma Hemma. Don’t let it stop you if you love farther away. I recommend it to everyone!
We love to come here around 9am for breakfast. Lattes with original flavors, avocado toast, power banana toast, smoothie bowl, egg soufflé sammich, and their glorious BACON are mouth watering and show stopping. I’m hungry just thinking about it.
They recently opened for dinner, and our experience was equally delightful ☀️
To start, the Smashed Dumpling Tacos were unbelievable! We could have eaten only those and it would have been a perfect meal! They were a balanced blend of savory, tangy, comfort, salty (but not too salty), and citrus - and we will return there soon driven by our desire to eat them again. It’s the kind of dish you can’t stop thinking about later!
Our Main Courses for a party of four: … Yoshuko Beef Curry, Aji Verdi Chicken Thighs, Pickle Chicken Bacon Ranch Salad and an awesome Burger were joyful mains before we finished the meal with a citrus pie (luscious graham cracker crust) and a chocolate dessert whose name I cannot remember but whose taste is unforgettable!
The owner of Hemma Hemma is such a lovely lady, a creative force who pairs flavors beautifully and who manifests a home sweet home vibe in her well decorated space.
Go see Chef Ashley and her team! They are top notch. Thank you for your unparalleled dedication and consistency!

If you're wanting to order something from their breakfast menu, call ahead first to see if they have it, especially if you have kids in tow! Went in today for the first time to order a cinnamon roll (was told they were out), opted for pancakes (also out), and biscuits and gravy (only served on weekends). After ruling out cinnamon roll and pancakes, the cashier suggested trying the ricotta toast. I asked her if we (my 5 year old) didn't like it, if we could send it back? Management told her no, we pay for the food even if we don't like it. Left disappointed and went to Homegrown down the street. They had plenty of everything we wanted and were super accommodating to our children's needs!
