“OMG this is the real deal! It is hard to find delicious legit barbecue and this place ticks off all the boxes. My brother recommended me to try Bbq Bandits and I don't regret it. Great value, super friendly service and the ribs, wings and brisket are fantastic. I cannot wait for my next visit!!”
“This is a great find. Stumbled in on a Sunday to a wonderfully warm welcome, a vibrant bar and professional (and gracious) staff Menu was epic, so great to find somewhere that chose different proteins and presented/cooked well. Shout out to Michael (bar) who was wonderful and to kitchen team for a show! We live in Toronto but I would absolutely go out of my way to make this a “local” best that I could. Thanks for a great time gang.”

“CANNOT say enough about our experience tonight at Conversate. Shauna and Ricki (I’m guessing on the spelling, sorry ladies!) we’re absolutely welcoming, knowledgeable and genuine. The location is lovely and excellent eclectic decor. Now, THE FOOD. Holy Motherless Goats!!! The flavor profiles are unique (chocolate jalapeño butter with balsamic for the table bread = MIND BLOWN), the presentation and the quality is some of the best we’ve ever had. RUN to this gem in the old Right House, you will NOT be disappointed!!! ALL OF THE STARS!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Choice would definitely be my choice of Indian restaurant from now on. The taste is authentic and so a fair warning to those who can't tolerate spice as some of the dishes can be a bit spicy.Prices are budget friendly and service is quick.Had vada pao here and it was simply delicious!”
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tony G's Pizzeria, and I must say, it was truly the best pizza I've ever had! Tony's warm hospitality made us feel right at home, and his exceptional kindness was evident throughout our visit. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff. The pizza was freshly made with high-quality ingredients and generous toppings. And to top it all off, Tony even treated us to a complimentary pizza! I highly recommend Tony G's Pizzeria for a delicious and memorable dining experience.”
“The hubby and I enjoyed our sandwiches very much. Fresh and tasty. And super affordable compared to some other “fast” food options. Will definitely make regular visits!”
“A hit everytime!Ive ordered the chicken donair box, traditional way, on 4 separate occasions. It has been amazing everytime. The fresh salad makes allllll the difference. Highly recommend!”
“Very good food , Staff is friendly, I would suggest if they can add Samosas in their menu because we got a chance to had them during Ramadan, which they have made I guess only for iftar time.”

“Tonight was our first time trying Golden Tenders. All I can say is OMG!!! I haven't had such delicious fresh chicken EVER from a restaurant. Thank you GoldenTenders!!! We are a family of 4 adults and were so impressed with the portion sizes. We will definitely be ordering from Golden Tenders again!”
“Great smoothies done vegan protein. Refreshing… not sweet, and some are great as a meal replacement with kale and spinach and greens. Love it! Sorry about the picture… this is how good it was!Dietary restrictions: They have oath milk and alkaline water!”
“The menu offers a delightful variety of choices. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious, and the ingredients blended perfectly. The portions were just right and the service impeccable. The staff was attentive and friendly. The restaurant also offers a wonderful drink menu! Situated near the lake, you can treat yourself to a relaxing stroll along the park/marina just across the restaurant after a hearty meal and libations. We’d love to visit again. We recommend this gem of a place for an enjoyable dining experience!”
“I ordered their chef's special biryani, which had shrimp, lamb, and chicken, and it was just magic to my tastebuds. It also came with raita, and this was my first time trying out raita. The yoghurt base calms the heat a bit for those who can't handle spice, and it has an interesting sourness to it. I'm not a big fan of sourness, but this wasn't off-putting for me.I was craving spicy biryani when I ordered this off of Uber Eats, and I don't regret it. It was a bit pricey, but the serving was large enough for 2 meals, and it came piping hot. The only negative was that they didn't include cutlery with my order, hence the 4 stars for service.”
“Server was very friendly, answered all our questions and saved us from ourselves before we ordered extra injeras on the side before knowing how large they actually are.Food was great and filling. I certainly will be returning.”

“They have the best wings in Hamilton. They always taste very fresh and juicy. I've had the mild, bbq, Thai sweet chili and Buffalo hot. They were great everytime. The food was affordable 60 wings for only around $50 and for the size and quality it's an absolute steal. The pizza here is also absolutely phenomenal. The crust is like no other and enjoyable. Their sauce is not too sweet or acidic but just right. They use high quality mozzarella and it shows, and are very generous with it. They also always put lots of topping. I usually get the shawarama pizza, canadianN or BBQ chicken. The Greek pizza and gyro pizza are also very unique, and I enjoyed the taste. There's so many options it truly is National and I never get board. National pizza is a Hamilton classic and a must try!”
“Those are not chefs. They are magicians, their food was magical. My girlfriend and I loved it, the bartender/waitress was super nice and the atmosphere was really cozy and warm. Highly recommend?”

You need to eat here, one of the best Hamilton has to offer!! The chef can do no wrong and the staff extremely knowledgeable and friendly! Thank you so much!!!”

“My family and I went to Moxies while vacationing in the area, after a long drive from Ottawa we were tired and just wanted to eat dinner. I ordered the beef tenderloin (amazing)husband had ribeye ( also amazing) staff was friendly with great customer service (multiple stops at table to see if everything was fine and if we needed anything) however I did have an issue with an item on my plate and within 10 mins of letting our server know one of the managers ( I’m sorry I forgot her name) was at our table to discuss the issue and assure she would rectify the problem, when she returned with the bill so over compensated us on our bill. Definitely recommend Moxies in Hamilton staff was friendly and quick to rectify the problem as well as multiple apologies for the issue. Sometime s**t happens but it doesn’t mean the food isn’t great. Will defiantly return when in the area”

“Took a tour of the brewery and the guide Nate knew his stuff. Any question a person had, he had an answer for with humor added in. The guy could be Ryan Reynolds' younger brother with the wit, humor and side smile grin he displayed. Great recommendations for beer as well. We'll be back just to banter with Nate.”
“Mie goreng and Bakmi babi kecap are my favorite one. Mie goreng is very flavorful, even kids love it. Babi kecap so tender, add so much flavour to the noodle. We also tried Nasi goreng and rendang. They were also very good. Very recommended this place.”
“Food is absolutely delicious! We talked about coming back after the first bite. The service is quick and extremely friendly. Atmosphere has a adorable rustic cozy feel to it. You can smell all the delicious foods cooking as you sit creating an intoxicating experience. Definitely recommend!!”
“DELICIOUS FOOD! AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I've ordered from here a few times on uber eats... every time the food has gotten to me very quickly and has been INCREDIBLE. Last night I made a mistake in my order... instead of just preparing it as is; I received a call letting me know my error. And Narula's did everything possible to make sure that I enjoyed my food :) Lovely business !! Very happy customer !! :)”

“I recently dined at A&W and was pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. The food quality exceeded my expectations, with the burgers being juicy and flavorful, and the fries perfectly crispy. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff members who were attentive to our needs throughout the meal. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting and clean, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. One standout moment was when a staff member went out of their way to accommodate a special dietary request without hesitation. Overall, I had a positive experience at A&W and would highly recommend it to others looking for a satisfying fast food option with excellent customer service.”
“Great coffee and great products. Unfortunately "The WORST" workers attitude BAD Attitude with bad service. They don't know how to deal with customers. Not once, not twice not 3 times...”
“Reasonably priced. My Sis in law has coffee and muffin. They beat Starbucks and Dutch Bros for price and taste anytime. Excellent place. Too bad they're not in the USA.”
“Amazing customer service experience. My order was incorrect at drive thru yet the staff at the window was immediate to correct it, apologize and rectify the issue. With help from her supervisor we received our correct order, a refund of the difference in cost and a pleasant transaction. Both were super quick and efficient and happy to ensure we were happy. Awesome work. Thanks!!”
“The daytime managers should come and visit the place at night time. There's a regular group of clients between 9 and 10 p.m. who are very annoyingly loud almost shouting at each other, like they own the place and don't even care about the other diners. Some playing card games. Reminds me of Sunday market in a Damascus Souk! And most of the time they occupy more than one table. I wish all of them at least ordered a piece of Timbit. And I wish too, I understand their language. I've complained to the very polite crew once, I guess they're too scared to say anything. So am I.”
“literally the sweetest staff!!!! had my sandwich ready for me when i got there when they had a lineup to the door and even tho their toaster was down they panini pressed it for me and the fact that they considered me made me so happy. ily ”
“Had a great experience at A&W! Theoverall staff service was friendly, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Onion rings are to die for... And their root beer float was a definite highlight! Can't wait to go back. Five stars from me!”
“Came in to get a quick coffee and head out. Cashier was really professional and wiped the debit keypad with a alcohol swab because it was dirty. The customer before me rubbed chocolate on it or something. Bathroom was clean enough too. Was super surprised considering the area looked a bit rough.”
“Their service is always great, I am amazed how they are able to give hot potato wedges every time while other locations sometimes serve cold and chewy. Whenever I am going towards Burlington / Hamilton this is a must stop, their washrooms are also clean.Keep it up guys??”
“Friendly staff at this Tim Hortons, they aim to please. Lots of parking with a drive-thru at this location along with an ESSO gas station, do-it-yourself car wash with vacuums, Sweet Paradise bakery and catering, a no-frills across the street.Parking: Located on a large ESSO lot.”

“This place is great. We took our 115lb Bernedoodle there this past Sunday. There were a couple of dogs inside already who came to greet Declan. Once Declan was comfortable, we took him off leash to explore.The other pet owners paid close attention to their pets to make sure they behaved. It was a great experience for our pup.When we first got in, the owner came and greeted us and gave us the rundown of the rules. The rules are no more than common sense for responsible pet owners - clean up after your dog, here are the supplies to help you clean up after your dog, keep an eye on your dog ... the normal stuff, nothing outrageous. The staff is very friendly and welcoming!They have special events each month, we missed the Easter photos by one day, but then again Declan wouldn't have fit in any of the costumes?They have specialty items for your dog too! We got the pumpkin bagel for Declan. It comes with cheese. Make sure to tell your server if your dog has any sensitivity. Declan loved his bagel. They also carry Yupp Muttballs!We'll be going back for sure. Declan slept well that night!Btw. Sorry, no pictures. I was pretty focused on D and also petting all the other dogs.”

“We discovered The Hearty Hooligan after our daughter was diagnosed with an dairy allergy. We now eat here once a week! The food is always consistent regardless of the day of the week or how busy they are. Our favourites are the pickle fries and pizza rolls, we’ve also enjoyed the Mac and Cheese Bake, Moe’s fries, Mac and Cheese burrito, Crunch wraps.. all delicious! We usually add on a dessert to our order which is almost always a punkaroo cookie! The cupcakes and cookies are always good too. The atmosphere is fun and inviting and the staff is always friendly and welcomes you like they’ve known you for years.”

Peruviano
“We went to Peruviano for the first time tonight and we will definitely return. Both the service and the food was fantastic! We had the beef hearts and octopus for appetizers. 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 was greeted by the most charming woman whose name I didn’t get sadly ? If you haven’t stopped in to this bakery where everything is made from scratch (!!!!!) you are really missing out !!!

“Thanks to Harvey’s for making my first experience the most wonderful one! Big shoutout to Nitika for her customer service!I was here first time and was feeling a bit confused about my first order. Nitika was great at her customer service and helped me place my order. Food was the yummiest. I would love to re visit. Thanks!”
“I got my usual order at Harvey’s for burger, fries and a milkshake. The food was great along with the excellent customer service provided by “Ketul” who worked there.

“I almost always place a mobile order for this location as ordering in-store just takes way too long but sometimes I still have to wait for a mobile order ? Could be better but not the worst ”
“This is a good location to grab a coffee and a bite to eat. There isn't a ton of seating and it's one of the busier locations, so it isn't a place I'd sit down and stay at for a while.The staff are great! Always very helpful and very polite. For what the job is and how much they make, they're easily the best part of this location.The coffee is as good as any other Starbucks location, better in some cases. The food is fine. If you've been to a Starbucks before you'll get what you're looking for. There are cafes around that serve better coffee for less, but if you want something fun and tasty there's nothing wrong with Starbucks.”
“Came to the drive-through around 9pm. Greeted over the order speaker immediately. Asked a question about a promotional burger (portobello mushroom melt) and received an accurate answer right away. Ordered two #4 meals with lrg fries and sml chocolate frosties. The order was prepared freshly and quickly. The entire order was correct and tasty.Parking: The parking lot surrounds the restaurant at the sides and back, with approximately 20-30 spaces. The parking lot laneway is not obstructed by the drive-through.”

VERLAN
“I went to Verlan for the first time on Sunday and oh man, why did I wait so long? Right from the get-go, it was great. I called last minute for a reservation and was told they would hold a table for me as I’d be there in about 20 minutes.When my husband and I walked in we were greeted and seated and it was very welcoming. The owner is so nice and friendly and accommodating to a minor substitution on my husband’s crepe for a dietary need.These were the best crepes I’ve had outside of Paris. I’ve been to a few places in Toronto and Niagara Falls and this was the best. They were light and slightly crispy, filled with delicious ingredients (we both had the apple cheddar bacon crepe) and for me I had a perfectly poached egg on top. The grapefruit mimosas were also very good.The whole experience was fantastic and we will most definitely be back and will also be trying their sister restaurant Reunion in Morristown.Thank you for a wonderful brunch. We will be back!!”

Fine Dining
“CANNOT say enough about our experience tonight at Conversate. Shauna and Ricki (I’m guessing on the spelling, sorry ladies!) we’re absolutely welcoming, knowledgeable and genuine. The location is lovely and excellent eclectic decor. Now, THE FOOD. Holy Motherless Goats!!! The flavor profiles are unique (chocolate jalapeño butter with balsamic for the table bread = MIND BLOWN), the presentation and the quality is some of the best we’ve ever had. RUN to this gem in the old Right House, you will NOT be disappointed!!! ALL OF THE STARS!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Simply amazing, every time. The service is impeccable; I've never dined anywhere that even remotely compares to the service I receive at Shakespeare's. The only thing that could possibly outshine the extraordinary service is the food. Every single dish is always the best version I've ever tasted by miles. This evening I started with the Caesar salad, as I always do, and it was delicious, as it always is. Every aspect of the salad is delectable, from the obviously homemade dressing right down to how the lettuce is chopped. My 9 oz. Striploin was cooked flawlessly and was melt in your mouth tender while the flavour can only be described as perfection! I did not order dessert tonight but I do know from past visits that every dessert item is pure bliss. Cost is comparable to The Keg but the service, atmosphere, food, and overall experience surpasses The Keg a million times over. The pickles, olives, and cheese and the beginning of your meal and candy dish at the end of your meal is such a lovely bonus to dining here, but my favourite addition to the meal is the scrumptious, buttery garlic bread that keeps on coming to your table. I simply can't recommend Shakespeare's Steak and Seafood enough.”
“Lovely posh spot. Perfect for a fancy meal out. Pricey, but the embiance is great, the lake view is beautiful and the food is VERY good. Braised beef, crispy brussel sprouts and any of the fish dishes are our favourites.Kid-friendliness: No kids menu but they are willing and able to accomodate requests like pasta marinara/cream sauce/butter sauce and they can do chicken fingers as well.”
“First time here was amazing! We got the cadbury salad as well as the smokehouse mac and cheese, both were flavourful and filling! Also really enjoyed the sweet heat scallops, can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu!”
“Charming and authentic little mom and pop restaurant. We happen to hit it at a slower time and were promptly seated. Waitress was welcoming - we ordered platter for two ( excellent choice for the carnivores out there) meat was cooked to perfection and each meat was uniquely flavoured - great hidden gem !Dietary restrictions: We follow strict ‘carnivore ‘ - ( protein and fats only ) easily accommodated without sacrifice to portion, variety or flavour”
“Amazing! Best Indian in the city for sure. Staff was super friendly, prices are very reasonable. Mutton biryani was delicious. The chicken curry was fantastic, I love that they use bone in chicken not just chicken breast. Creates a more rich sauce. 10/10 will be coming back. Only down side it there are a lot of stairs.”
“This is the best Thai food I’ve had besides when I was actually in Thailand. we went with a group for a birthday party a couple of weeks ago and we were all blown away by the delicious food. All of the staff were extremely friendly as well, which made for a beautiful experience. We will definitely be back!”
Cheap Eats
“Place is usually good and I recommend it! Not sure if it’s new ownership or management, but today! I dunno if I feel the same in regards to establishment. I used a coupon, and things kinda changed! Apparently with a coupon they won’t stamp your loyalty card anymore due to head office! (there’s nothing on the coupon stating otherwise) Ive never had an issue in the past with stamps and coupons lol. The bathrooms had no electricity! Big hazard… and when I was paying for my meal there was a price error! The coupon stated $17.99 and he rang me up as $23.93? I had to explain tax on $17.99 comes to $20.32 and then he understood and finally came to terms. They should definitely work on those things so for next time I can rate them a 5 Star. Keep your loyal customers happy! No unnecessary behaviour by not honouring procedures, people will keep on coming to support your business.”
“Inferno’s Pizza offers a delightful culinary experience with their delicious pizzas. The crust is perfectly crispy, the toppings are fresh and flavorful, and the cheese melts just right.

Whether you’re dining in or getting takeout, Inferno’s Pizza is sure to satisfy your cravings for authentic, mouthwatering pizza.”
“We waited over half a hour for 2 drinks. Only 1 worker in the building. Plz get more staff.. update, they apologized and were very kind and understanding. Thank you ”
“It was our first time visit here and let me tell you, it was a wonderful experience. The place is spacious and clean, and the staff is super friendly. They have so many options on their menu. We tried the Tutti Frutti and Rainbow M&M ice creams and they were both flavorful and had perfect amount of sweetness! Highly recommended, we're planning on visiting again to try the other flavors??”
“First time here and completely understand why they have a perfect 5 star rating. Delicious coffee! Loved the Peanut Cloud! And the kindest owner. Super knowledgeable and sweet.”
“Delicious authentic flavours served with a side of hospitality! Paola and her family were so warm and welcoming creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. I tried their birria tacos and tostadas and they were absolutely delicious! Service was super speedy, and their selection of fresh juices perfectly complemented the meal. The restaurant's ambiance radiated the vibrant culture of Mexico, making it a truly immersive dining experience.”
“I got the boneless jerk chicken, rice and peas, oxtail gravy. The food was amazing, the service was fast and friendly and the restaurant was very clean. 10/10 will be back.”
“We cannot express our love for May’s enough!! Everything we’ve tried has been delicious and so fresh, the pad Thai is the best we’ve ever had. All of the food is made fresh to order, and May is the sweetest most amazing woman. She is so hospitable and makes sure you enjoy everything you’re eating. There’s a reason we come back every week. We order enough for a few meals because it’s just that good!! A must stop at the Hamilton farmers market”
“I had been looking for a Thai place in Hamilton for a while - and this place exceeded my expectations. Ordered takeout on a busy weekend night, and everything was hot, fresh and delicious. The Tom Kha soup is the best I’ve had in years, and a large portion for the price. The Green curry was absolutely delicious- I also got 3 servings out of it (dinner and 2 lunches). Timely and friendly service - even despite being very busy with orders that night! This will definitely be one of my new restaurants on rotation! Thank you Mimi’s.”
“Amazing food! I dont eat Greek food often at all. Wanted something different so I tried here. I got the Greek fries with gyro meat (something simple). Portion was massive and it was delicious! Super friendly people working as well (I assume a family run business but not sure?). Very happy and will be back! Thank you for great service and amazing food.”
“Really appreciate the efforts the girls are putting into their work. I really hope they excel in their future. Love their gesture to accommodate our request of making burrito bowl. Highly recommended.”
“I have been to this spot a fair few times now and it never fails to disappoint. The sushi is delicious, the staff are super nice and polite, the prices are great for the portions of food you get. Would highly recommend!”
“Good food, service was kind. Ordered some burgers, the line was a bit long and it took time to process. None of these things were an issue (tasty food options!). The biggest issue, the music. It's elevator music. Unless you're looking to weed people out from staying in the space, the music is far from welcoming. I don't know how many times I heard instrumental versions of 'the girl from ipanema'. Change it up.”
“Came here as a first time customer and their food is exceptional!! Amazing deals with combos, they have amazing prices especially at these times. The customer service was phenomenal, they were so nice to me and my kids! Can’t wait to come back and get more delicious food!!!”
“Took my 4 year old here for a P.A. day from school and he loved it. he has been asking to go back ever since. we played some great games, got some DND dice at a sweet price and a few miniatures to paint together at home. He enjoyed the milk and oreos and I the cold brews. Awesome place filled with awesome people, awesome games, awesome goodies, and sweet deals. Overall AWESOME! Thank you guys for doing what you do for the gaming community.”
“Had a really great time at Merit on a busy Saturday. Love the communal seating and brewery atmosphere. Lots of selection on tap. We came from Toronto on our way to family’s place to check this place out from a recommendation from the WrenKid-friendliness: They had colouring pages for our daughter, and a kids menu that didn’t suck. Was actually very kid friendly and wouldn’t hesitate to bring her again.”
“Typical pub atmosphere. Great selection of craft beers. Staff were amazing. Vegan food was awesome (don't kid yourself, this is definitely junk food, but it's delicious). We came as a family with 2 small children but would be equally as good having a few beers with the guys.”
“Has been there couple times now. This is so far the best Indian restaurant I have seen so far in Hamilton. I have been living here for the last 5 years. I just want them to include more veg options. I love this place.Parking: You will get parking spot, I get them every time I visit. Remember to book in advance for special events and holidays, if possible.”

Chuggy's
“The food is great wings are awesome the only complaint was the if you get the 99cent wing they could tell you that to need to buy a drink not just charge you at the end when you have drank water the whole meal.I would go back for wings or a burger they are real goodParking: There is very little need more”
“Fantastic (albeit a bit pricey) option for pizza in the city. I am not vegan myself, but really enjoyed the food. In fact the onion rings were the best I've had anywhere, ever, full stop.If you enjoy interesting / different flavor profiles, and trying food that isn't the same old, same old, this is probably a great place to check out!”
“Food is absolutely delicious! We talked about coming back after the first bite. The service is quick and extremely friendly. Atmosphere has a adorable rustic cozy feel to it. You can smell all the delicious foods cooking as you sit creating an intoxicating experience. Definitely recommend!!”
“The first time in the pub and it was fantastic service is very fast and the food was delicious and the prize then broke the bank. I will definitely go back and I will definitely recommend to people.”
“Love it every time we go there.Parking: We went for dinner, on a Monday night, and parked right out front. There's ample parking in the back of the restaurant also.”
“DELICIOUS FOOD! AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I've ordered from here a few times on uber eats... every time the food has gotten to me very quickly and has been INCREDIBLE. Last night I made a mistake in my order... instead of just preparing it as is; I received a call letting me know my error. And Narula's did everything possible to make sure that I enjoyed my food :) Lovely business !! Very happy customer !! :)”

Joya Sushi
“Such a find. Later afternoon, after a long drive. Walked in clean restroom and some tea. Zen audio just made it a gem. Needed to relax. Ordered a variety of sashime and rolls. Sorry, i cook for a living. Quality fish ... outstanding and worthy. Complementary Miso always a fine touch and as I left plenty tables walked in. Great job. @++”
“Such a great atmosphere at this bar! Amazing & friendly staff, serving delicious food & drinks! Can’t wait to visit again! Oh and the karaoke scene here is on fire;)”

The French
“The French has excellent food and wonderful staff who always go the extra mile to give a a fantastic dining experience. The food is beautifully presented and tastes just as good! A strong favourite with my girlfriend and I.”
“The portions are great here. Everything was cooked fresh and was delicious. The Greek salad was great and I liked the olive oil dressing. The meat was large pieces and well marinated, tasty and juicy. The Taziki was very fresh and tasty. The owner was very nice and she gave me a pop when I asked for something green for st. Patrick's. Overall worth every penny and will be returning!”
“Wow what a spot! Everything we ordered was out of this world, all seafood cooked with the love of tenderness. The steak was seared and seasoned to perfection, the fresh baked buns. This experience was definitely my favourite dining spot to date. I also love the space as it’s brings me back to better time. The right touches of elegance. Thank you team and Victor.”
“Made a reservation for 45 to have a birthday party here. The manager Laura was so accommodating and the staff were great. Would definitely recommend for larger group events.”
“We had this food truck for our private sale at a car dealership and I was so impressed with how amazing it was! Everything was so fresh, flavourful, and cooked to perfection! Do not hesitate to book Jonny Blonde for your next event!”
“Great place! I ordered off of Uber Eats and I got exactly what I asked for. Everything was in good condition and I asked for no peppers and extra sauce which both I got! Thank you, great place and pretty affordable.”

Tondou Ramen
“Absolutely incredible Ramen experience. Service was quick, efficient, courteous, had my Ramen in a snap. Without a doubt, the best Ramen i have ever had in this city. Would go back in a heartbeat.”
“that was the first time I'd ever been there, we were there for my son's bachelor party. when I heard that it was a place were you had to cook your own food, I was a little skeptical but when we all ordered our meats and vegetables and started barbecuing it and all you can eat for 30 dollars it was actually quite enjoyable, thank you for the great service and hospitality”
“Hamilton's gem! Tequila selection is off the charts ? Bartenders are A+ and Matt lead us on a custom tasting experience! Food? Mind-blowing, especially the tacos ? Perfect pre-concert vibe, music on point ? Don't miss out, it's a must-visit! ??"”
“I think La Luna was the first Lebanese restaurant I ever ate at, more years ago than I want to count. I was in town for an appointment and took my teen there and it is still fantastic. We had the lunch special and the wrap and salad were a generous portion and delicious. The baklava was tasty and 1 order was plenty to share for 2 people. Highly recommend!”
“We had the lobster risotto and the calamari, and indulged in the half price wine. Everything was delicious and the service was perfect. No hovering but never had to wait for anything. I believe the servers name was Ava. Great spot for an after work bite to eat!”
“Been here about five times over the last year and it does not disappoint. Great food, service and atmosphere! We bring all of our out-of-town friends here when they visit and it’s always a hit. Highly recommend.Dinner last night served by Gage was lovely. Entire service staff is great.Vegetarian options: Delicious vegetarian options. Risotto in particular.”
“Lots of late night vegan options! Great service! 4 dollar beers!Vegetarian options: Vegan Spicy Nasville Chicken Poutine and Vegan Guac & Roll Sandwiches are incredible”
“Been here quite a few times now. Cool little place with one of the best burgers. I’m not a burger person but it is unreal. They have a great selection of craft beers as well. Fun vibes and service is always great”
“Simply amazing, every time. The service is impeccable; I've never dined anywhere that even remotely compares to the service I receive at Shakespeare's. The only thing that could possibly outshine the extraordinary service is the food. Every single dish is always the best version I've ever tasted by miles. This evening I started with the Caesar salad, as I always do, and it was delicious, as it always is. Every aspect of the salad is delectable, from the obviously homemade dressing right down to how the lettuce is chopped. My 9 oz. Striploin was cooked flawlessly and was melt in your mouth tender while the flavour can only be described as perfection! I did not order dessert tonight but I do know from past visits that every dessert item is pure bliss. Cost is comparable to The Keg but the service, atmosphere, food, and overall experience surpasses The Keg a million times over. The pickles, olives, and cheese and the beginning of your meal and candy dish at the end of your meal is such a lovely bonus to dining here, but my favourite addition to the meal is the scrumptious, buttery garlic bread that keeps on coming to your table. I simply can't recommend Shakespeare's Steak and Seafood enough.”
“We just ate here for the first time! Highly recommend.. we even brought home food for a family member cause they needed to try! Bringing friends back to try soon this was a great spot and friendly service.”
“Old school pub atmosphere. Great selection of pub food. Service was well done. Fish and chips had a huge piece of fish. Tasted good. The chicken club on Marple rye was excellent and we would order it again. Overall a really good experience and would return ”

The Judge
“We unexpectedly had a night without my young child. At 39 weeks pregnant I wanted to do something I can't necessarily do for quite a while once baby is born. Therefore I was looking anywhere in the area for Sunday night comedy and we came across this little gem of a show. By little I don't mean the set list I think I saw like 12 5-minute sets. It felt just like when I used to go to weird backroom events in Toronto to see my friends only all of these comedians actually know the rigamaroll. They had quite a challenge in regards to an audience there was a group of 5 people (of which maybe only 3 were stoned), me ( the super unexpectant pregnant lady) and her husband who were determined to really enjoy themselves, and a woman who I half think was an agent and like 15 comedians. Not everything hit but everyone was a professional and experienced and that alone I highly highly appreciate. Classic bar, interesting comedians, and good laughs. Maybe their material will be based in less heavy material with an audience that is more patrons than comedians ( like on NOT a long weekend) but a great show to take me back to days when I saw comedy weekly instead of annually.”
“Ordered for the first time tonight. Put in the order online. We were blown away before the food even arrived by the customer service we received. The staff went above and beyond by calling us not once, but twice to clarify some details of our order (I was not clear, it was totally on me). The woman on the phone was friendly, and helpful with a great vibe! The pizza and wings arrived hot and fresh. Everything is delicious. The Buffalo sauce is nothing short of addictive (I would drink it if I could it's so tasty). We will definitely order again. This has been bumped to the number one spot for fav pizza!”
“We had my Moms 60th birthday party and retirement here, everything was perfect and the food was unreal as usual. Trent made this all happen, and was definitely a night to remember! Thank you so much Trent and the team that helped us bring this into a reality! Highly recommend squires for a quick drink, lunch/dinner and especially party’s! Squires never disappoints, Thanks again!”
“Come here all the time with my boyfriend and his friends. There is a huge variety of flavours for all palettes. So nice to have a variety of Canadian breweries. Best is when the back is open super chill in there. Winter they have heaters and it feels super cozy, in the summer super nice vibe and pet friendly is the best. Thank you for always being so kind as well, best staff.”
“Depend the busy day or not , if you lucky enough will have a space, otherwise you'll have to wait up to an hour to be serve and one time they're told me there are no reservation, only first come first ”
“Always receive the best service from friendly staff. The kitchen takes great steps to ensure my allergy is handled correctly, which is not always easy with garlic! But I have eaten here many times without any issues. The bacon blues burger is the best!Dietary restrictions: I have a severe garlic allergy and the kitchen staff ensured this was addressed extremely well.”

The Ship
“Buy far the best patties I've tasted! And they dress it up so many different ways that it's hard to choose from. Also had their spicy fries, which were A-MA-”
“Dani was a great server! Very friendly and knew her stuff. The gar parm fries had the best aoili I've ever had, I wish you could buy bottles of it. The burger I had was amazing too. I wish we had one of these closer to home!”
“Google led us here, and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious, and the service was great. They had live music and green beer for St. Patrick's Day. We would definitely come back. Thank you for providing a cozy and welcoming pub space.”
“Ordered for the first time last night when no other option was available and i am glad we ordered. Everyone in my family enjoyed and praise the food. Also, the person who took my order on phone was very professional. Thanks for the delicious food.”
“The brisket - wow! Such a good choice! Pork belly nuggets were unreal (as said by my friend).I have a lot of dietary restrictions (no gluten, dairy or sugar) and they were able to help me find the best dishes, modify things as needed and even give me a sausage on the house because I wasn’t able to have any of the sides!Thanks for serving us well, Stacey!Dietary restrictions: They will accommodate you within reason! The kitchen is not celiac friendly, but if you have sensitivities, they will work with you!”

“We were here for the first time on my birthday and we were thoroughly impressed! The food and drinks amazing and our server Kate was so busy but was able to give us amazing service !! We will definately be back.”
“Lovely posh spot. Perfect for a fancy meal out. Pricey, but the embiance is great, the lake view is beautiful and the food is VERY good. Braised beef, crispy brussel sprouts and any of the fish dishes are our favourites.Kid-friendliness: No kids menu but they are willing and able to accomodate requests like pasta marinara/cream sauce/butter sauce and they can do chicken fingers as well.”
“We went there 4’ the first time last Thursday night! We had the best time ever plus it’s so amazing inside if you love sports and my gfs said the patio is amazing in the summer… Our server was amazing we loved the atmosphere & the food was unreal good! Highly recommend the cheesecake apparently it’s the chef’s mom’s recipe literally 10 out of 10!Dietary restrictions: I am deathly allergic to peanuts and nuts, and they were fantastic with allergies!”
“I definitely can say that their food is now much better! I like new paper boxes and rolls have lots of fish, tasty rice and soy sauce. For the price I think they are the best!Thank you guys for great service!P.S. as always, I forgot to take a picture before I ate everything ?”
“Great place to enjoy some down time. Everything is small plates, so you can try tons of different foods. The food is excellent and the servers are very friendly.”
“Had the amritsari kulcha (stuffed naan) and it was great. Very flavourful! Had regular spice level which was perfect for me to still be able to taste the other flavours. Came with raita and chick pea curry. Both very good. Chick peas were definitely on the spicier side for me but very fresh and tasty. It’s just of to the side of an Asian grocer, so not much for ambiance, but the staff were super friendly and obviously took pride in the food they were making.”

Pisa Pizza
“10 years ago I ordered from here been a fan ever since previous owners never let me down it was so awesome once a week we got pizza wings poutine etc. .it's always been a 5 star experience. Well up until tonight. The pizza was the best I've ever had from anywhere wings were the same I could not believe the size of them enormous seems too small a word the wings were so big a 5 star rating is not what I would give after tonight. It was an easy 100 star rating! Thank you Pisa pizza no one can match you!”
“Went in last week and had an excellent meal. NEVER disappoints and the owner and chef is excellent. Played an incredible prank on one of our diners and we still talk about it. Good food is getting harder to find and they knock it out of the park at Marcianos!”

Boston Pizza
“AMAZING! Came here for a friend’s birthday at 1AM and even though the staff and kitchen were in the process of closing, they served us with amazing care and hospitality and let us dine in! The Staff here were so friendly and kind, especially with the Birthday Robot :) An AMAZING experience, would definitely come here again! Shalin, the General Manager IS THE BEST! Warmest Regards, 10/10!”
“Great wings and fries. Only downfall was we were told one of the servers was on a break and we had to go up to the bar to order our food and drinks. Food was brought out and subsequent follow ups were done, all good.”
“A hidden gem in Hamilton. If you haven’t been to this place, then it’s a must visit spot. Love their patio as it’s facing the lake and if you have delicious food with amazing service, then it hits the spot right.Parking: There is a huge parking lot opposite to the restaurant and it’s free parking.”
“Love Cathy's Kombucha, the best I have ever tasted. Haven't found a favourite flavour yet - they are all so delicious! So happy I found Cathy at my local Farmers Market and lucky I'm not too far from Oakville so I can pick up more during the winter❤️”
“The food are delicious and the price is very resonable. It is probably one of the best pizza places that I have ever tried. I am also impressed by the outstanding service from the friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and come back again. ”

The Cannon
“I had a cappuccino and the gluten free bacon waffle. The waffle was delicious, the bacon was real and think, not grocery store bought. It was great service, great coffee, would be great to have coconut milk as a nondairy alternative.”
“This place is extremely unique in having the biker bar vibe with good tunes and family friendly atmosphere! Sat down for a pound of wings and a couple beers before my flight. The food, service and beer was great! Then I’m trying to get ahold of a cab which is a bit more difficult then I’d expected…. After hearing this the owner Jim came over and offered me a ride, which was amazing! He dropped me off at the airport and isn’t the reason I’m writing this review, it was just the icing on top! I’ll be back everytime I can! Thank you Carson Grant”
“The restaurant is small but it has a nice atmosphere. I placed an hour, which took about an hour to cook my Chicago-style pizza, but it was very thick with the ingredients. I got a small pizza, which was enough to feed two people and have leftovers. It was well worth the money for authentic style chicago pizza. I will be returning in the future. The service was good and the staff was friendly.”
“Okay, here is my only issue with (all) Montfort restaurants... I never seem to try other things on the menu because the Montfort Chicken Pita is so bloody amazing that I never want to take the risk of denying my taste buds the pleasure.”
“We were here for the first time on my birthday and we were thoroughly impressed! The food and drinks amazing and our server Kate was so busy but was able to give us amazing service !! We will definately be back.”
“This is a great (almost) hidden spot in the lower stoney creek area. The place was empty when we walked in on a Saturday evening, We had a platter for 2 and a steak.I had asked for a medium rare and got a well done, but it was still alright. The platter with the sausages was decent, especially the cordon bleu. It was pretty good. The food is generally on the saltier than we are used to.”
“Server was very very professional and very friendly talking. I appreciate it. Thank you so much :) and the place was beautiful,big and very warm. I love it.Vegetarian options: Vege pasta was so good and delicious.Parking: Parking lot is huge.”

I’ll be here more often and will tell all my St Joes friends to stop in.They also have a good selection of local goods to support small businesses in our community.”

Burrito Boyz
“I don't leave reviews, ever. But this really deserves my time. Got a large steak burrito. Wife got the chicken. Both got guacamole. And we added a small crazy fry. All 3 were absolutely delicious. But what's more important is the service. 3 girls behind the counter, working in sync like they've been doing it for decades. Kind, quick, and extremely efficient. And most importantly, the whole premises was noticeably clean. From top to bottom. Kitchen, food counter, even the floor and tables. We were so impressed I have no choice but to leave this well deserved review. Great job ladies! Looking forward to coming back soon!”
“This little slice of heaven is in the heart of Hamilton. They make a great pizza. This is an authentic Italian place. It’s loud in here so be ready. Great food. Nice little bar, and a great crowd. Stop in. You will feel like part of the family.”

Glendale Pub
“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.”
“Very delicious Italian meal. It tasted like yummy home cooking. My husband and I both really enjoyed our meals, the bread and the drinks. Will definitely return!”
“Unable to rate the food as I haven't eaten here for years. Last time I did was liver and unions with bacon and it was excellent! My wife and I have been going the past little while for a few pints and the live music on Saturday nights which has been really entertaining and enjoyable. I love the British pub feel here, I was recently in London England and frequented quite a few and this pub is very reminiscent of that experience. The staff are welcoming and helpful and the beer is fresh. Great all round place to go!”

“I go here now and then when I’m heading to work or a day off and the employees are friendly and nice. They improved a lot and yes this location is constantly busy and the employees work hard. It’s slow but they are small and can only do so much. I have no problems here.”
“My mil always raves about this place & brings us pasteis de nata when she visits us in Kingston. Being we were down for a visit my mil took me in for 2 dozen natas Later on that day My hubby & I went back in for lunch. Bifanas were probably the best we ever had and I had rice pudding as dessert. Best rice pudding to mankind. Love this place and felt like walking into a cafe/bakery in Portugal. Absolutely fell in love with this treasure.”

They actually care and if you have any questions they get back to you asap! 5 stars all round ”

“I recently had the pleasure of ordering pizza and chicken wings from Nino's Pizza, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience. The pizzas were nothing short of delicious, and everyone who had a slice couldn't stop raving about the amazing taste.The crust was perfectly crispy on the outside and delightfully soft on the inside, just the way I like it. The toppings were fresh and flavorful, and the cheese was melted to perfection. Each bite was a burst of mouthwatering goodness that left me craving for more.As for the chicken wings, they were equally impressive. They were cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and tender, juicy meat on the inside. The seasoning was just right, providing a perfect balance of flavors. They were a hit among everyone who tried them, and I couldn't agree more.Overall, my experience with Nino's Pizza was exceptional. The quality of the food, from the delicious pizzas to the well-cooked chicken wings, surpassed my expectations. It's safe to say that Nino's Pizza has become my go-to place for satisfying my pizza cravings.I highly recommend Nino's Pizza to anyone who appreciates good quality and delicious flavors. Whether you're in the mood for pizza or chicken wings, you won't be disappointed. Give them a try, and I'm sure you'll be just as amazed as I was.Happy eating!”

“It's a good gym, some of the equipment could use replacements. It gets too busy after 4 and it can get really hot since the gym section is elevated with no real AC. Its cheap though.”
“Food almost always arrives with no issues. If there is an issue it's that they didn't send sauce with the nuggets. The ice cream is always available and is great!”
“The people demanded, and the Bedrock Bistro delivered.For decades, Canada had an empty hole in its heart as we yearned for a dining experience based on the hit TV Show from decades ago "The Flintstones"And low and behold, Hamilton own Bedrock Bistro, equipped with great food, great prices and great staff.Unfortunately you sit in chairs (not on rocks) and an elephant doesn't wash the dishes.They don't have a pelican in the bathroom that you poop into, they used a regular toilet.But they do play all the episodes of the Flintstones on TVs while you eat so it's basically like going back to the stone age.Well, except TVs weren't in the stone age.Anyways, if you are thinking of eating here, then Yaba Daba doooooo it.”
“It was AMAZING !! The food was bomb , the service was great , very friendly, and quick . The atmosphere was great too - we sat upstairs near the window so it was a nice view to the street below. Would definitely recommend this place and can’t wait to visit again !”
“it's always so good every time I go. I just wish they brought back the crab legs, other than that it's always great. plus it's an all you can eat!”
