“Sorry this is late, I will use her name as Donna as that is what she told us. Donna was awesome so very friendly. The food was yummy. We tell people about this restaurant all the time. We will make it back there again. Thank you.“

“Came here Monday night with my brother and the food was amazing. Our server was Peter and he was so nice! He checked in with us once and seriously that was amazing. Nothing is worse than a server who checks in 6 times. Peter is wonderful and our drinks were delicious! Thank you for your great service! Boss man: Peter needs a raise!!“

“always a fan of the lumber jack slam“

“This has become my go-to spot after work for the past 3-4 weeks, and it's now my favourite late-night place in Hamilton. I always order the Crispy Chicken Combo - hands down the best burger in town. The first time I came here, Sana, one of the staff members, helped me choose the perfect toppings. Her excellent communication skills and friendly service made the experience memorable, and ever since, l've been coming back for more.“

“absolutly unrivaled service!“

“I wish I could give more stars for service. My best friend sister and I were there for dinner tonight and we had Ruby as our waitress. She was friendly, hilarious and so communicative throughout our time there. She was constantly at her tables checking in on what anyone needed, friendly to everyone she spoke with and just on it over all. The food was amazing and brought out very quickly! We've been to this location many times but this has been one of my favourite visits mostly because of Ruby!“

“Good food, hot dogs and sausage. Good price.“

“I can confidently say this was the best restaurant I’ve ever had the pleasure of dining in. It was amazing that every single dish was delicious - and the service - spectacular.“

“The staff at this location are not only supper friendly but so very quick and so organised. They all deserve a raise.“

“I went to Stonewalls for a country music showcase.
The layout was well planned out, making it possible to see the stage from any seat.

The acoustics were fantastic, as well.

The only complaints I heard, were about the service. One friend had their menu taken away by a server before they could order any food, and when they tried to flag someone down, the couldn't. They had to go to the bar to get a drink.

The area surrounding the venue was under construction which made it difficult to get to, and the entrance doors had shattered glass.

Overall, I enjoyed myself and would still go back if the opportunity arises.“

“We joined friends for a lovely meal yesterday. Of course there were a variety of dishes from which to choose; but with all the reviews and reccomendations it made our choices difficult. We ended up ordering the meatballs with garlic bread, a definite hit!, the Pizza Fuks, the Flat Iron steak with rapini, Oysters, Seafood Risotto and mushroom Gnocchi. All were excellent. We first tried Born & Raised when they opened; we found the wait staff then very arrogent , which soured our experience. So we tried again, after hearing good things from friends and family; so 10 years later tried again. Boy are we glad we did! Wait staff were very friendly, easy to talk to and as a celiac, my only disappointment was I was told I could not have the gnocchi. Our drinks were prepared well and the food again, was outstanding! We definitely will return, thank you to all in the restaurant that made our night out so great. Major kudos to the chef and kitchen!“

“The best place to grab a few drinks with friends in hamilton.“

“Fabulous Thursday vibe night of wine and sharables! Great music, atmosphere and the brussel sprouts were the star!!“

“Cori is the best server. Even when she is super busy she takes care of you like you’re the only table she has. The food was also very delicious. We will continue to choose State and Main as one of our fav spots to eat. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The services were amazing and the manager came to our table to say hi and make sure we were happy. Such a good chicken sandwich wow“

“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.“

“Le meilleur burger d Hamilton, non de tout l Ontario, non de tout le Canada…excellente ambiance, grand choix de burgers ..leur Poutine est excellente“

“As a senior, I’ve struggled with my hearing when out etc. I went to Harvey’s on Upper Ottawa after my local dump run. The gentleman named Chris was so helpful and patient with me. He took the time to help me get the lunch I needed. The restaurant is clean, friendly and most of all the food was delicious! What Chris didn’t know was I’m recently widowed and it’s hard for me to eat solo etc. Having a great conversation with him just made that task more doable! Thank you!

Parking: Great parking!“

“Just an excellent greasy spoon dinner!“

“I was in the area, hungry and looking for something tasty for dinner and I was fortunate enough to spot this Harvey's! Immediately upon pulling in there was ample parking and the lot was nicely shoveled. Inside, the restaurant was immaculately clean and I was warmly greeted by all of the staff. I ended up going with an Angus burger poutine frings and whipped up an Arnold Palmer for myself at the soda machine. The food was served piping hot and absolutely delicious. The serving size was EXTREMELY generous. I actually had trouble finishing the frings poutine. They were so jammed full they could barely close the lid. For my Angus burger I had the works and added ghost pepper mayo. Don't say I didn't warn you but it is legit! It is both delicious and spicy. Use with caution if you are not accustomed to taking heat. Overall this was an absolutely perfect dining experience and for sure I would be happy to come back do this Harvey's next time I am in town! An easy 5-stars!“

“Their wings and blue cheese dip are excellent. The service might not always be quick but whenever we go out, we leave enough time to enjoy ourselves. If we are in a hurry we eat at home or go to a fast food establishment. They have numerous specials, their pizza is excellent and the ice bar rail at the main bar is functional. Lots of sports to watch. Overall, a great place to drop by.“

“Excellent service, and servers. They ran out of cellar dweller a few times, but the service staff more than made up for it. Perfect place for students to destress and have some good eats. Ask about the cellar olympics if you’re a student at Mohawk!“

“Just an excellent greasy spoon dinner!“

“Would love to give a big shout out to Jackie and the staff last night at the heritage green anniversary function she did a great job and was making sure everyone and everything was perfect. Thanks for making it a great night from service atmosphere and food as normal was great“
