“it was mine and my girlfriends first time at a moxies restaurant. We had delicious food, it was a great atmosphere and music, and also had a great server named Ryan. One thing that I noticed was that he came to check on us multiple times to make sure everything was ok with our food, in which is not done at many other places. It showed that he cared about our experience and made it very pleasurable. His customer service was number 1.”
Ramen • $$
“This was some of the best ramen that I have had. The atmosphere was great, however the place is a little cold as it is winter. The highlight of my experience was the awesome service since we were seated right away, our orders were taken quickly, and the food was produced promptly. The staff made sure that we were happy with our food. Out of 10 I would give this place a solid 8.7.”

The bar offers a variety of beverages, including teas priced at $4.99 and mineral water at $3.00. The ambiance was vibrant and welcoming, enhancing our overall experience. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, assisting us in selecting drinks that complemented our meals perfectly.I highly recommend visiting Barshala Hamilton for a complete dining experience that includes excellent food and a well-curated drink selection.”

“Tried Apllada last evening…5 Stars for sure BEST GREEK FOOD EVER!!! Fresh, authentic, homemade, flavourful and a dining experience! The restaurant was cozy and welcoming. The owners - (one, our chef who is certainly a master of Greek cuisine) and the other (our host who was welcoming and informative) Highly recommended! Will definitely be back…”
“DELICIOUS!
the food was fantastic, I can't say enough about it. We got every appetizer (excluding ceaser salad) and each one was a 10/10.
I don't like steak, and I hate seafood... but I could have finished the steak bites and calamari on my own! The battering and sauces on both were absolute perfection, I'd try to recreate these dishes at home but I know even with my home-cooking skills I would be disappointed.
My only gripe is the music was loud, but they had a party upstairs so that may have contributed. (This wouldn't have even been something I noticed, but my 4month old was with us and it was hard to hear her babbles)”

Indonesian • $
“When I found out about Indonesian’s Flavour I was a bit hesitant but I tried their food and was surprised and happy that I did not have to travel far such as to Mississauga or Toronto to eat satay , nasi goreng or rendang , etc . It is all in the Hammer /Farmer’s market . Hamilton is lucky to have Indonesian cuisine , which can come to you mild or really spicy . …You just have to ask . Now if we can only ask them to get a bigger restaurant with lots of chairs and tables for a truly good and yummy dining experience !”

“Went in late night, because they're supposed to be open 24 hours. Girl at the counter said they only do online and phone orders at this time (about 245am). I asked for clarification that if I go out to my car and use my phone to order something, then it's ok but not with me standing right there. She said that was correct. "Open" sign was on, door was unlocked and there was food. I left because it wasn't worth the silliness.”

“If I could rate this place 10 stars, I would. We have been going to bon temps for many dinners and special occasions. The atmosphere, food, and drinks are all amazing. Phenomenal service. Recently we went back for dinner for a special occasion where the restaurant was closed. I emailed the restaurant to let them know their website was outdated. The owner invited back and once again, we had an absolutely amazing time. Cannot wait to return. This restaurant is a must go. We cannot wait to see what they have in store for the future!!!”

“We had travelled from Toronto for a beautiful date at a new restaurant try.
The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has a nice laid back upscale vibe, great choice of music to tie it all together.
The 4 dishes we tried included the Chicken Liver Brulee (signature dish), Beet Salad, Thai Stuffed Wings & Trout Marie Katherine. All the fishes were mind blowing with the different layers of flavor and contrast of texture.
The service was below subpar as it was mentioned that I had a lactose sensitivity but most dishes still had a dairy in them as the server mentioned the chef can make alternative substitutes. Also, we asked the server if we could get some extra bread and 10 minutes passed and nothing came out. So we reminded him again, it came out buttered and toasted sadly.
We definitely will come back for the food and hope to have better service then! We look forward to the summer menu, what date will that be released?”

“I was in Hamilton for a concert with my family, and I'd always heard that Hamilton was the best place to find an authentic Maritime donair. A quick Google search led me to this spot, and Lord tunderin, I wasn't disappointed! The donair speaks for itself, so you should go in and get one. It had the exact right amount of donair meat, so much of that authentic donair sauce, the ingredients were fresh, and the service was friendly. It was inexpensive and honestly, it took me right back to having donairs when I lived home in Newfoundland. 100% recommend this place; you should check it out!”

If you’re looking for a place that serves authentic, high-quality ramen, Shiro Ramen is the spot. Probably the best ramen I had in Canada .The gyoza was also surprisingly good !
So happy with this place that we are going back tomorrow 😁”

For mains, my husband had the Aji De Gallina and I had Sudado de Pescado. I didn’t want any rice and was given the option of asparagus instead. The fish and asparagus were both cooked to perfection. My husband loved the chicken and enjoyed the fried cassava so much he asked for an order to take home. Portion sizes are generous. Looking forward to returning!”

“I hosted a surprise party for my mom and needed catering done for approx 50 ppl. I spoke with Greek Palace and decided on ordering 5 grill platters (I maybe saying the menu item wrong). He did say that it will be alot of food and HE WAS NOT LYING. There was so much food for the event we were happy to tell guests to take food home. Everyone at the party loved it, potatoes, rice, chicken, pork and gyro meat was so delicious. I'd definitely recommend to my friends and family to get some food from Greek Palace for any future gatherings or dinners. Thank you guys for doing such an amazing job for us. I'd order from you again in heartbeat.”

“Can I just say, the commitment to customer service at this location is incredible. With everything that the restaurant industry has been through this year, I went in there today with my daughter for a drink and some cookies. They were so friendly and said they wanted to give my daughter her treat for free. I have been fortunate enough to have not lost my job or taken a pay cut this year. I insisted on paying because I appreciate local business. Good on you for showing your true character and commitment to your customers. And thank you for taking my order ...it is far from the last.”

“I want to start by saying this is absolutely NOT the fault of the restaurant, and I take full responsibility for not checking the phone number to make sure it was correct. My wife has the dominoes app which we ordered through via delivery, and I failed to pay attention to the phone number on file. This was an old phone number of hers that she no longer used, however the first theee digits and the last four digits of the phone number on file are the exact numbers of my wife’s current phone number. This is where my mistake came in.
I did not notice the middle three digits were incorrect, and requested a text message prior to delivery as it is late and I didn’t want to wake up members of my household.
The incredibly kind driver believed that this was myself or my wife texting him, and therefore his time and effort was wasted. When I realized the order was cancelled upon checking the app, I immediately had my wife phone them to clarify what had happened. Through no fault of their own, they were lead to believe that we didn’t want the order anymore, and thus cancelled the order after driving all the way out to my address and texting me to let me know they’ve arrived. They did not knock because they were respectful of the time of night, and in no way do I blame them.
The driver and restaurant went above and beyond to correct a mistake that was not a fault of their own. While mistakes do happen, I wanted to point out that the driver was an incredibly kind individual who made sure that we received our order. While I take full responsibility for the mishap, I’m shocked that the person with whom the driver was texting requested a non refund return to the store, thereby wasting the stores time and resources to make a delivery happen, as well as trying to cheat strangers out of a 100 dollar meal. This is a lesson learned.
I wanted to point out that I have always received quality food from this location, that the food is always good, and the drivers always come with kindness and respect. Just like any restaurant business, the drivers and cooks do exceptional work, and have to deal with unkind customers and unfortunately, random people who make their jobs harder. This review is not only a review of the quality of the food, it is a positive reflection of the amazing workers at dominoes, especially in this industry where customers can be cruel. Thank you for giving this married couple an evening to enjoy good food and a movie. I am very pleased with the service and workers. Again, I want to express my sincerest apologies for the mishap.
With good blessings and many thanks,
M and H.”

We picked up dinner at IOS, having never before tried it before. $30 per person for four could have comfortably fed eight people. Freshest, tastiest and most plentiful food ever. Meat was tender and juicy, salad crispy and the potatoes tasty and perfectly done. Our guests were very impressed and this restaurant will become our family favourite. Keep it up!”

“Layal and team, I can't thank you enough for the impeccable and friendly service that you and your team provided to my daughter's wedding. The food was amazing... in fact, several people commented to me that it was the best food that they had ever been served at a wedding. I couldn't agree more! As someone whose career took her to many rubber chicken dinner events, I know how remarkable it is to be served really good food at a large banquet....and it is even more remarkable that you were able to do this in the middle of a major snowstorm. As the mother of the bride, I really appreciated the warmth and friendly consideration that you showed to my daughter both in the planning and delivery of her wedding meal. You are five-star in my book!!”

From the staff to the food and everything in between we have had nothing but an exceptional experience, however it helps that our server Erika is beyond amazing at her job and is really one of the best servers we’ve ever had.”

“Food was great, lobster ravioli offered me
Something I haven’t tried before which is always a great thing and it was worth it, although a bit expensive at $35. The creme brulee was great too and they say the Tiramisu and Creme are made in house! Service was amazing, never a moment when we were left waiting, server was very attentive and the vibe was good, nice night out with friends!”

“Such a beautiful place.
The staff was amazing special compliments to Jose and Mitch - very friendly when tho it's super busy and you come up with special requests.
Food was delicious (also I would have liked the option of salt and pepper at the table and not just on request. The wine glasses were magically full the whole dinner (4course menu) time.
Vegetarian options: Very good”

The staff are wonderful and very attentive. The food was very tasty and the kids chicken nuggets actually tasted real. Portion sizes were great, not to mention the prices were decent too. Kids got 1/2 off because it was a Sunday. Im glad we have this place so close.”

“Excellent service, and excellent food. We stayed at c hotel to celebrate our anniversary as we got married there years ago and wanted to return to celebrate. We ate at Baci for the first time last night and we had the pepperoni and margarita pizza. Honestly it’s some of the best pizza I may have ever had. It had the taste of Neapolitan pizza but without the flop. It was nice and crispy with a beautiful char flavour, loaded with pepperoni and cheese. I can’t wait to come back to eat again, thanks for a great dinner!”

The patio wasn't open for the season yet, but they were getting it ready and it looks like it will be lovely once open; full of ferns and sunlight! I would 100% recommend Fisher's, and I will definitely be back over the summer to try out the patio :)”

“Was at Glendale to pick up some food with my friend Claudio today. Everything we had was so good. From the jalapenos poppers, chicken fingers and the fresh fish and chips. Social distance policies were in place. I feel bad for these places during this time of lockdown. But if you are in the area, make sure to stop by for some food. You won't be disappointed. I can't wait until for them to be open fully again so I can experience the atmosphere of this place.”

“Excellent sushi restaurant in Hamilton downtown. Food was great and staff is very friendly. I ordered California roll, some sushi and tempura and they were made perfectly and couldn’t ask for any better. All food was fresh and very delicious. Definitely will return again and highly recommend to everyone.”
“DELICIOUS!
the food was fantastic, I can't say enough about it. We got every appetizer (excluding ceaser salad) and each one was a 10/10.
I don't like steak, and I hate seafood... but I could have finished the steak bites and calamari on my own! The battering and sauces on both were absolute perfection, I'd try to recreate these dishes at home but I know even with my home-cooking skills I would be disappointed.
My only gripe is the music was loud, but they had a party upstairs so that may have contributed. (This wouldn't have even been something I noticed, but my 4month old was with us and it was hard to hear her babbles)”

“Our family ordered 3 trays of lasagna, a Greek salad and 1 1/2 garden salad for a Celebration of Life. We had this all delivered. The food was delicious! The lasagnas were hot with lots of meat, pasta and sauce and the salads were fresh with lots of vegetables & dressing that we added ourselves to our taste. The Greek salad was exceptional & we would order only that in the future. Len & Lester were wonderful to deal with & extremely patient & helpful, answering all my questions. Our delivery person was very friendly & set things up for us perfectly. We had no complaints during a very stressful time and would order from them again with no hesitation.”

She was friendly, attentive, and made excellent recommendations. Thank you Jacqueline. Your dessert suggestion Tiramisu was heavenly! .It was the perfect way to end a fantastic meal and truly a highlight of my dining experience. Despite the restaurant being busy, we never felt rushed and our needs were always promptly attended to. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Hamilton.”

“So disappointed this last time I went to Hutch's. I ordered a large fish and chips and both pieces were barely the size of what one piece used to be. I always got a large because I would only ever eat one piece and bring the other home for lunch the next day but not anymore. Both pieced fit on the plate and were covered with fries you couldn't even see the fish and trust me there wasn't as many fries either. Definitely not worth 18 bucks anymore. not saying I won't go back but it won't be as often as I used to. I am going to start looking for another place to get my fish and chips.”
“I just had a 60 person catering order and I was not disappointed. I’m Italian and my husband is Pakistani. I had nothing but rave reviews from everyone. I was having a hard time finding a good authentic Pakistani restaurant in Hamilton. We’re loaded with Indian restaurants which I also love. I do cook Pakistani food but for a night out or a function I will order from here again.”

“My friend and I had an early dinner tonight at the location at 735 Queenston Rd, in Hamilton. Our server was Madeline and she was just great. Have not seen her there before but she was such a great server, humerous, kind and helpful in making our choices. The baked potatoes needed five minutes to go before they were reeady and she was apologetic but it was well worth the wait. Everything was hot and fresh and Madeline made our visit there delightful. We were there from 4 until 5:00 if this is helpful. We do go there a lot but this meal was absolutely the best. Top rating today, without a doubt.”

“Food was very subpar. the garlic loaf was cold, the soup luke warm, and the chicken fingers for $21 were coated in an oil based sauce that you could not see or taste. Asked for sauce to dip and it was mostly oil mixed with a hot sauce. Yellow Currie was ok but very bland in taste. stack quesadilla was luke warm did not come with sour crème or pico de gala. it had been a long time since we had been here and it looks like it will be even longer before we ever go back. I can say that the servers were pleasant and apologetic for what came out of the kitchen.”
