  Looking for lunch in Waldo we happened upon Hemma Hemma, a hidden bar, café and restaurant with a deceptively roomy interior. My partner had the H-Ville Hot chicken sando and LOVED the California Chicken sando which was supposed to be mine but I shared.
  Our 3 month old was pleasantly accommodated for when I needed to change him in the restroom.
  The bathrooms having hand-wave activated sensors that open the doors totally hands free! It was too cool but simple that I had to mention it. Also love when changing tables come with wipes below, so thank you 🙏nCome try this place for breakfast lunch or dinner- and ask about private cooking classes.

  The drip coffee (not pictured) was some of the best drip coffee i've ever had. The carrot cake latte was delicious. We had the masa pancakes with churro syrup which were amazing and then the classic breakfast burrito which was served with a spicy aioli and h sauce. The burrito was one of the best i've had. They use a lot of products from local producers like Yoli Tortilleria which were featured in both our dishes (the masa and tortilla on the burrito). The service was top notch and the interior was beautiful. One of the best brunch experiences i've ever had.

  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 ☀️nnTo 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!

  What a gem! I’ve always loved Hemma Hemma for their breakfast, brunch, and lunch — and now their new dinner menu makes me love this spot even more! The atmosphere is cozy, modern, and perfect for a relaxed night out.
  
  We started with a few beverages and shareables — the Burrata + Tomatoes and Trio of House Dips were absolutely delicious (the beet hummus is a must-try!). For our mains, we had the Aji Verde Chicken Thighs, Herby Chicken Salad Wrap, and Yoshoku Beef Curry — everything was so fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
  
  The staff was friendly, the service was great, and every dish tasted so thoughtfully made. Definitely one of my favorite KC spots — perfect for any meal of the day!
