50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Hamilton

“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 ?????“

“Went with my wife and two young girls…greeted with smile felt welcomed. While we waited for our delicious, fresh pizza, they allowed my 15 month old to venture around the back, and they didn’t bat an eye! Very nice people working. Pizza and Donuts were delish!!!! Definitely going to be going back!“

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

“Tried the paneer tikka roll at Himalaya Restaurant and it was honestly so good! The paneer was super soft and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. It had that nice smoky taste from the tikka, and the sauces inside made it even better without making it soggy.“

“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!“

“Great atmosphere and delicious food. Great experience“

“always a fan of the lumber jack slam“

“Awesome good, great servers.“

“Very good fresh made food, very hospitable. Try the curry chicken with naan“

“I have been coming to BN for years. Came on the 24th for my birthday and had a phenomenal experience. Service was amazing (albeit we were the only two people in the restaurant lol) we had the tasting menu which will leave you with more than enough food for two people at a very reasonable price for all that you get. Stand out dish was the steak frites. The BEST cooked fries you will ever have will be here at Berkeley. Steak was also cooked perfectly to our liking. Cocktail menu is fun and innovative. We were also given complementary prosecco for the special occasion. I’d recommend this place to anyone looking to celebrate or just have a nice night out.“

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

“🪴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!“

“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!!“

“Great Oatmilk Latte and GF breakfast sandwich 😀“

“AMAZING FOOD, AMAZING STAFF (I LOVE YOU GABE) I LOVE GETTING THE GRILLED CHEESE AND THE CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD IS SOOO GOOD! GO TO 541 NOWWWW!!!!“

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

“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“

“Cute little café with a nice concept. I loved the QR code ordering system—it gave me time to look through the menu and decide what I wanted without feeling rushed.

We sat on the patio, but I wouldn’t recommend it. It’s right on the street, and the tables and chairs were small and not very comfortable.

We ordered the S’mores Latte, the Ice Ice Baby cold brew, and two breakfast sandwiches (the Gatsby and the Malibu), which came to about $50. The Malibu was definitely the standout and was absolutely delicious. The drinks and the Gatsby were fine, but nothing particularly memorable.

Overall, it was a pleasant visit, but for the price, I was expecting a bit more. The Malibu was worth trying, but everything else felt a little underwhelming.“

“UPDATE: Foodbox provided me a replacement box of onion rings on my next order. Overall, they onion rings were okay, A little on the underdone/soft side, but better than being burnt. The Fish & Chips continued to be average and okay. Their fries, which I tried this time too, where pretty good, and the Tar Tar sauce continued to be pretty good too.

I am glad I have them another chance, even if it's not the most amazing food, it's a pretty decent value based on what you get for what you pay, so if you're looking for some good, affordable, decent value, average quality fish and chips. This place ain't that bad.

ORIGINAL REVEIW: Ordered fish and chips from Food Box a few days ago (been busy since then). It was a busy night and we were craving fish and chips so we placed an order. When it arrived, the fish was on par with your average fish and chips place, fair for the price, and the in-house tar-tar sauce was good too.

However, the onion rings were were outright burnt. I am not sure how this passed any visual or quality inspection. The onions inside were shriveled to leather and the outsides were burn and hard as a rock. They were inedible. We were left without a side for our meal.

I am finally getting around to writing a review now so others can be prepared to the quality they can expect if they order, however, I hope this is a one-off and Food Box reaches out to me to give them another chance.“

“AMAZING Chicago style pizza! We asked our server Jennifer for pasta and wine recommendations and she (and the boyz in the back) delivered. If you’re thinking or looking into Italian restaurant in the area, go there. You won’t regret it.“

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

“Service was prompt, and accommodating. The portions are generous, so I would say descent value. The server helped accommodate my requests/food allergies. BEST babaganoush I've had, I eat one in house and order one to take home! The House salad is also a favorite of mine. Falafels are delicious! Crispy on the outside, and tender inside. Chicken skewers were tasty as well; constructively perhaps a touch less time under heat to ensure a more juicy inside, but the outside was on point.

Temperature of the restaurant was freezing for my preference, maybe ideal if you are actively moving around but as a guest sitting still it was quite uncomfortable.

Overall a delicious dinner with plenty of time to visit, without feeling rushed. We have been in the past, and we will be back. Thank you for your hospitality.“

“A great spot for Korean food! The service was amazing, the waiters was so kind and attentive. The portion sizes were huge and everything has so much flavour! We ordered the spicy chicken, mul-naengmyeon and the sashimi naengmyeon. This is an amazing place, we will definitely come back again!“

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

“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!“

“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“

“I LOVE SZECHUAN NOODLE BOWL <33 I recommend it to all my friends and have been there like once a month the last 2 or 3 months. was there today and like a couple days ago! the braised beef and pork are both delicious and the service is always so kind. a routine favorite hamilton spot of mine since moving here and I'd recommend it to all :))“

“First time dinning here but it won’t be the last !! All the meals looked amazing and my Manicotti was the best I’ve ever had .“

“Had a gyro and fries today. BEST fries I have ever had in my life! And I am a senior citizen. Hot, fresh, not greasy and salted to perfection. I will never get fries anywhere else. Kudos to the cook!“

“I had the breakfast poutine (minus the egg) this morning and it was superb. Very large portion, beautifully crisp fries and the amounts of cheese curds, bacon and sausage were very generous. We will definitely be back!“

“Went for the first time today. Food was 10/10. Fresh, very tasty .. definitely recommend. The inside is super cute, nice decor/ ambiance. We’ll be back for sure.“

“Really delicious food
My daughter loved the Mac and cheese with bacon
And the chicken pad thai was delicious

We also had the coconut snow ball desert was was also delicious and a great way to end the meal.

The chef spoke with us to ask how the meal was and she said everything is homemade and only cooked when ordered and you could definitely tell because it was all excellent home cooked food that you can tell was made with passion and love.“

“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.“

“A long overdue review from me. Where do I even start?

When I moved to Hamilton(many years ago), this family had just bought this place, the people running the pizzaria prior, sucked.

The food is amazing, and they've always been extremely helpful. They've NEVER, EVER. Gotten my order wrong, and are never late.

At one point we were ordering from them twice a month, they know my phone number, voice and address by heart, and absolutely never skip a beat.

I love this place so much the owners are genuine, polite, amazing people.“

“They make a really good old school pizza 😋 🍕“

“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 food, great servers, friendly atmosphere“

“The best Pho in Hamilton bar none.“
