50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Hamilton

“This was our first visit back since new management came in. We were very impressed with how warm and inviting the team was and their attention to detail. We had the lemon ricotta sourdough starter, still amazing, as were the mushroom dumplings and the BN Salad! We also share the Basque Cheesecake which was extraordinary and made in house, as all their food is. It was a lovely date night location and we look forward to visiting again!“

“Amazing dining experience! Two people, lunch buffet. Upper James, Hamilton, ON. CAD $26, plus a senior's discount of 20%. Great value. Wonderful selections of appetizers, entrees, and desserts, including sushi and sashimi. Great taste. Great service. Hot hand towels before and after the meal is a nice touch. Clean washrooms. Can't beat the Mandarin restaurant for an overall great dining experience.“

“Absolute best burgers since they opened. Our only go to place for a quick meal. Have never disappointed us ?????“

“By far my favourite place to eat in Hamilton! They have incredible sourdough donuts, delicious coffee, stunning atmosphere (with great finishes and art!) and hands down the BEST pizza in town - move over Shorty’s, Cafe Baffico has you beat! Also the staff is so friendly and welcoming. If you have a chance, definitely check this gem of a place out, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Some of the freshest food on campus made by people that really care about your food and your enjoyment. Love their chili and their deep fryer, for some reason, makes the best fries. It's magic!“

“my new favorite place. absolutely love the food and the vibe!!“

“always a fan of the lumber jack slam“

“Excellent food and service at a reasonable price. Great place!“

“We ordered the Salmon sushi and it was so fresh and tasty! The portions were generous and we especially enjoyed the breaded scallops appetizers and the sushi nachos! The staff was very friendly. I can't wait to order again!“

“We had supper at this location last evening with my husband’s two daughters and one our granddaughters, her boyfriend and our son-in-law. Andrew was our excellent server who was pleasant and friendly despite having worked all day. He was very attentive and saw to all our requests in a timely manner. He organized individual bills accurately and everything came as ordered. He is an excellent member of your staff, and we hope to be served by him at our next visit!!“

“While I’ll actually sort of miss occasionally having to sit with people you don’t know in the old storefront, I enjoyed having dinner in the beautiful new dining room. It got quite busy after we arrived, but our sever kept her cool and was very polite and kind. My favourite Indian restaurant in the city for over 20 years.“

“Awesome good, great servers.“

“The service here was good. Waitresses were friendly and gave us complimentary bread while we waited for our food. The bread was rather mid tier- but free bread is free bread. We ordered the stuffed pizza, which is the Chicago style pizza. It takes 30mins- 45mins for them to make, so keep that in mind if that's what you're coming here for. The pizza was solid, although a little basic. (Probably because we just got one with cheese and sauce). Not sure how it compares to other Chicago style pizza, but still quite delicious.“

“🪴All of the plants with great indoor and outdoor seating and open air in ”fairweather”! 💚 Jen behind the bar was super friendly and welcoming. 🍺 Garden Grave is the most delicious beer that I've had in a long time! ✅ Vibe check… passed! 🍻🍭 Two Hops Up… you should drink here!“

“Always great food, drinks and service! Some of my favourite beers are brewed by these fine folks.“

“very beautiful and fresh food never disappointed love this place“

“Canokie Foods has been blessed to cater Concrete Stories (stories from the street) each Friday from 4pm to 6pm at 541 Eatery“

“Great Oatmilk Latte and GF breakfast sandwich 😀“

“Stopped by yesterday for lunch! Shared the fish tacos and duck wings- fantastic! Great beer selection and great staff! Thanks for the delicious grub!“

“Found this fantastic Italian spot right in the heart of Hamilton and I'm so glad I did! The food is outstanding and both the pizzas and pastas are clearly made with care. The star of the show has to be the pizza: the base is absolutely perfect, and the homemade sauce is truly amazing. It’s the kind of meal that makes you plan your next trip before you’ve even left.“

“Simply amazing place. 5 star is an understatement it should be +10Stars!

Incredible elevated quality (locally sourced) food worth every penny. Owner and staff were so welcoming and dedicated to deliver quality. The sour dough bread is top notch!“

“I tried the Halal chicken sandwich...amazing The fries are just excellent“

“Absolutely the best prime rib I've had in years0“

“I recently ordered a veggie pizza from Domino's, and I must say—it was absolutely incredible! The flavors were perfectly balanced, the vegetables were fresh and well-cooked, and the crust had just the right amount of crispiness. Every bite was bursting with taste, and I could genuinely tell that care had gone into the preparation.

What made the experience even better was the outstanding customer service. I want to give a special shout-out to Mr. Arpit, the manager at Domino's. He was not only polite and professional but went above and beyond to ensure that my order was perfect. It’s rare to come across someone so dedicated and passionate about delivering a great customer experience. His warm attitude and attention to detail truly made a difference.

Thank you, Domino’s, and thank you Mr. Arpit, for making this one of the best pizza experiences I’ve ever had. Highly recommend to anyone looking for both great food and excellent service!“

“I was hoping to pick up a sandwich for the car as I was in a hurry to get to my next meeting.
I ended up ordering the fish and chips. I know hard to eat in the car but I went with it.

Everything from the crispy fries and equally crispy fish it was delicious.

It took a bit longer to get than expected but they didn’t disappoint.

I’m not sure what the ambience of the restaurant is because I was there late morning.

Definitely worth a try.“

“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!“

“Love the turkey bacon club! Great prices, and the wedge fries are the bomb! So good!

Service excellent, though you may wait for the cooked meals but worth the wait!

The indoor and outdoor spaces are Awesome! Like a Ski Chalet!
Regular customer now!

“absolutely the best noodles in the world. Get the King, you won't regret it! ❤️❤️❤️“

“That pizza was awesome. Thin crust. Big slices. Cupped pepperonis. And sesame seeds around the crust. I've never had pizza like this before and it was great.“

“Excellent family restaurant, amazing service (Thanks Michelle and others). Great omelette. Bottomless coffee. It’s a huge place. Booths and tables. Between 8.30 and 10.30 on a Saturday it was about 50% occupied and the CO2 didn’t go above 800 (good ventilation). Friendly, welcoming. Thank you!

Vegetarian options: An egg place is not going to be very good for vegans, but this place is easy for vegetarians. Omelette and eggs benny have vegetarian options.“

“Always good. Always fresh. And I can walk.“

“Best fish and chips !!!!! Fresh, hot and delicious !!!!!“

“Excellent Service and Excellent foods. The place was great. The staff was friendly and good Highly recommended ❤️👏👍“

“Really yummy sushi here. Got the bento box with tempura and substituted out the Cali roll for spicy salmon and I’m so glad I did because it was delicious! They add some extra salmon on top it was so good. Good portions for the price - I believe it was about $23 plus tax for the box. Also came with miso soup and rice pudding.

Am definitely going to be visiting this place again. Almost consider going out to Hamilton just for this sushi.

It was pretty busy on a Saturday night so some items took a while but worth it.“

“Sam, son & his team 👍👍👍👍👍
Pizza & thin crust 5👍
Sam knows our name, & would know our order if i didn't change it regularly!
When I was gardening pregnant, his driver stopped to help me get a stubborn weed out. You don't get that from Pizza Pizza!' Mom & Pop shops every time. # buy local“

“Best food in town owner is very friendly with a great smile. We have been coming here for the last 12 years since we moved to the north end. We highly recommend Mo. He is the best. We leave smiling with delight.

Vegetarian options: Does a great job on the falafel“

“Best falafel I've ever had. Good service! The flavour of the grilled veg, rice, hummus, and all sauces are solid!!
And ofc with sumac, right on.
One star down for atmosphere just bc of an incident with a person that they eally couldn't help. Location and all.“

“Located in downtown Hamilton, near buses and plenty of paid parking in the area, we visited for lunch on a Sunday. Wasnt busy when we arrived at 1p, although when we left at 2p, and 80% of the tables were full.
Cool and colorful murals filled the walls.

Tasty dishes, option to order spicy level. Hand made noodles take time, 30-35mins for one soup dish so be prepared to wait.

Soups come in one size so prepare to be full, or pack and save for another meal. Very good prices!“

“If you haven't been, you gotta go!!I've been here twice now since January 2023. The first time I dined in with a friend. I love authentic cultural cuisine and this place is fabulous. Friendly staff and owners, everything tasted as like it was cooked fresh. My dine in experience included those amazing pancakes. My second experience I did takeout and ordered the Tom Yum soup and number 38, which was a thin vermicelli dish that was excellent. Portion was so good I got two meals from it. Thanks so much for a fabulous meal. I'll be back! 😁🥢🍽“

“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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I get pizza from here for my board game night and it’s always a hit with my friends! The pizza always tastes great! The garlic sauce is also delicious. Definitely recommend trying this place out.
Toppings are fresh, cheese is good, crust is crisp and not too thick.
If you order ahead of time on Skip and you choose 6:45-7pm for pickup (for example), it’ll be ready at exactly 6:45. So just be aware! The pizza is definitely best when it’s piping hot.
Eventually I’ll have to try other items off their menu!“

“The best Pho in Hamilton bar none.“

“First time here on Feb 15/23. Spectacular, the X burger takes no substitution but it needs no substitution“

“It’s an amazing restaurant and great food.“

“Hands down the best restaurant i've been to, not only is the menu extremely extensive but you cook everything yourself to your own preference...“

“Not only was the food absolutely amazing, but the service was phenomenal! Our server not only handled the lounge and the dining room BY HERSELF, but was also efficient and friendly! The only downside was overhearing overhearing group of ignorant people complaining unnecessarily. If you have to wait for your food here, trust me, it's more than worth it . Best Italian meal I've had in over a decade.“
