11 Best Italian Restaurants near Hamilton

“I would highly recommend the Chefs Table at Carmagnola. For us it was a six course dining experience unlike any we had ever had. Seated in a private dining area that is positioned right in front of executive chef Jackson Rouse and culinary staff we were provided a detailed description of every course including how the dish was prepared, the inspiration for the dish and where ingredients were sourced. Some local and some from other parts of the world. It was treat for the senses. It was surprisingly healthy menu with nothing fried, smothered or processed. 100% fresh ingredients including in house made pasta, micro greens snipped fresh from the table top garden in the kitchen and fresh meats and seafood. Of all the courses, the wood grilled rabbit cacciatore Trenne in vodka sauce with fennel, green olive and leek was the best followed closely by the Sumac Seared Hokkaido Scallop in a confit fennel puree surrounded by green chickpeas and Lemon Argumato and the house made vanilla gelato with cocoa nibs and mugilio (a syrup made from pine cones sourced in the Swiss alps). My husband and daughter opted to do the wine pairing which they throughly enjoyed. My son and I got separate drinks, he a Limecello and me a Cranberry Mule mocktail. We each had sips of each other’s drinks - all was amazing. Overall an unbelievable fine dining experience.“

“I'm just reaching out to apologize. These are good people and a good family owned business. I'm apologizing on behalf of Kelly. I don't want my anger to effect her. She just came home upset and wouldn't explain or watch ur son blow out his birthday candles. I take my family very seriously and consider Gina + Nan indirect family. Much love please don't have her sitting at home sleeping for too long.“

“Came here after church with my mom, and brother. We all got calzones, and they were delicious! I got sausage, peperoni, and onion, my brother got sausage, beef, and banana pepper, and my mom got mushroom, sausage, and onion! They were buttery and crisp, and absolutely delicious! On a Sunday around noon it wasn't very busy, but it may be busier on weekdays. If you're in the area, I would 10/10 recommend!“

“I was at Township Tavern last Wednesday night, July 9. First time I’ve been here. Michelle behind the bar was welcoming and quick with the drinks and taking our orders. The food service team was excellent and the food was just fantastic. Highly recommend the Italian sub and the breakfast burger. Will definitely be back.“

“I love this place! It brings a much needed change in the pizza market! I order here all the time, but tonight I had a small problem. However, a great customer service tech at the restaurant named Devin, saved the day! Highly recommend! Pay that kid more LOL“

“We ate at Caruso’s for the first time July 3, 2024. My wife and I thought our meals were 5 star, delicious! She had the Chicken Marsala and I had the Rigatoni Rustica. We asked our waiter Sam for his recommendations and we’re so glad we took his advice. Best Italian dishes we’ve ever enjoyed. We can’t wait to return with good friends. Excellent! Denny & Barb G.“

“This is our go-to restaurant for casual Italian dining. The service and food are consistently good and the prices are great.“

“We attended for my father's birthday. Staff was extremely kind and patient allowing my parent the time they needed to sit. Our food was excellent and service matched. When leaving staff even held the doors for my father and step mother. They are a bit slower in their old age and your staff went above and beyond with their patience and understanding. Thanks for making this a very pleasant experience.“

“Hannah did a great job of serving us. Would highly recommend her. The spaghetti bolognese and pizza were very tasty as well as the cocktails. great service and atmosphere.“

“Hubby & I just had lunch here a bit ago. We've never eaten here before. We shared a steak hoagie with onions, mushrooms, pickles and cheese. We got the parmesan bites and an order of fries. Absolutely delicious food! We had water to drink so our bill was only $21. Delicious food at a reasonable price! I highly recommend Richards“
