I actually make it a point to not go to other locations anymore because I know how inconsistent Tims can be. I hope the owner continues to do whatever they’re doing and celebrate the managers who’ve made this possible. I don’t know any of the staff names and I’ve been served by many of them and they’ve all been consistently amazing.”

Timmy's Tanür 920 Upper Wentworth St Unit 12, Hamilton Mediterranean • $

“I don’t ever really write reviews on restaurants unless they are consistent with their food quality and standards. So with that being said, this is the third time I’ve ordered with Timmy’s and I definitely need to acknowledge this place. My husband and I order the same thing every time (we don’t really like change lol) and every single time with the two kebabs and rice it is ABSOLUTELY perfect. They don’t miss. The food that comes out of their kitchen is obviously made with love and care because they never let a bad plate go out. I’m not big on rice. At all. But this rice, I can eat all day, every day. They put a type of red sauce on it and a white sauce too. But it’s not what you think. It’s not the typical shawarma red and white sauce you get when you order a wrap or a plate. It’s savoury red sauce with tomatos and a little bit of kick. The white sauce seems yogurt based and it pairs absolutely perfect with the rice. And the rice, isn’t your typical white rice. It seems marinated in a way that is exploding with flavour just on its own. And don’t even get me started on the kebabs!!!! They’re juicy and big and packed full of flavour. And they give you two massive kebabs! TWO! This meal is not only filling but absolutely delicious and I’ve been addicted to Timmy’s Tanur since the moment I tried it the first time. Whether you’re dining in, taking out, using Uber eats or door dash, this restaurant will NEVER disappoint. They even throw in a delicious pita to make sure you’re full! Absolutely wonderful! I recommend this place to everyone and anyone!!!”

Veerubha went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, from helping with the order to making sure the food came out just right. His positive attitude and friendly personality made the whole experience even better.

And the pizza? Absolutely delicious. Honestly, this is one of the best Gino’s Pizza locations I’ve ever been to, and Veerubha is a big reason why. He truly makes customers feel valued and appreciated.

Déjà Vu Bar and Karaoke 445 Concession St, Hamilton Lounges • $$

“As the biggest of karaoke enthusiasts, my partner and I checked out Dat Cang Karaoke on Concession, for our date night out. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves singing karaoke to our hearts content. The staff was lovely and courteous, quick to respond to needs, and curious about our feedback as they are newly open and licensed. They also let us know that this was the first Wednesday night open for karaoke so it was especially nice to sneak in unanticipated and the only singers in the club. We both were impressed with their host system, sound quality, and especially stage lighting - it felt welcoming to sing in a space built with obvious care. There's plenty of comfortable seating arranged in groupings that enable you to sing from your seat or take the stage if desired. We did both and enjoyed the comfort of feeling like singing at home but in a lovely and well-tended space. The karaoke system is far superior to most currently used in North America. having myself been a karaoke host and a world champion of karaoke competition, I feel confident in saying that this is a program that is far more accessible to worldwide karaoke options in multiple no languages. I was really impressed with its accessibility and performance and also impressed with the sound quality which was definitely above standard. Both of us look forward to coming back again and with some friends for many fun nights of karaoke to come! Thank you for listening to us!! 🎶🎤”

“Sherlock Holmes movie set? Did I just walk into a Sherlock Holmes scene on Ottawa st? What a wonderful setup. Totally relaxed from the moment you walk through the front doors. And that’s saying something walking off Ottawa St. I used to live in the neighbourhood. Might be a good thing that I don’t anymore. As this place is a gem. For those who know, they kinda keep it quiet. It’s small but perfect. And talk about calming. Easy to get into one of the comfortable chairs and sink right into this place. Karen a friend of mine had put up a few pictures about the place. I commented on the post. And wrote that it looked wonderful and I should give it a try. Karen said that if I did she would meet me there. Well let me tell you it will not be the last time for sure. Ashley and Alex behind the bar were amazing. Perfectly suited and great folks. Now, I was looking at the fantastic drinks that kept coming out. And the next time I go I would like to try a few of the concoctions. I didn’t see that they had flights (smaller versions). But I am very sure they could make something up. I most definitely will return. And look forward to spending a few hours in that calming atmosphere. One thing that was very prevalent to me. All of the patrons had their phones either upside down or put away. The direct communication by all in the place. Why that was great to see. See you all soon! Thank you so much Karen. What a wonderful evening. Ashley and Alex, looking forward to seeing you again.”

And Amanda, our bartender, crafted cocktails with fresh, high-quality ingredients that were simply delightful. The menu boasts diverse, locally sourced, and seasonal offerings that cater to various tastes. We loved the share plates, particularly the Whipped Feta & Roasted Plum and "Pad Thai" Fries. Each bite was a masterclass in flavours and textures. The Daily Oysters were expertly prepared, with a perfect balance of horseradish, Sriracha, and rhubarb-cucumber mignonette. Presentation was stunning, and the taste profiles matched the descriptions precisely. Whether you're dining solo, on a date, or with friends before a show, Undefined is the perfect spot. Its premium downtown location makes it easily accessible to many amenities. Kudos to the entire team – 5 stars well-deserved! We'll be back soon.”

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.

“We expected a party of approx 20 people on Jan 24/26 but due to the weather we had 3 people that flew out early from Pearson to Logan Airport and around 4 went home immediaely after the 'due' because they were from out of town. That left 13 of us. Since we had reserved, we still had a round table for 13 in the back of the restaurant. We decided to go with a family style format and actually ordered way too much food. The portions were large and tasty, from the egg rolls + spring rolls to a variety of dishes that satisfied everyone. We were extremely well looked after despite the restaurant getting busier. We were happy to see other parties in and out as January is very slow in the restaurant business. I dealt with someone on 3 occasions before we arrived and he assured me he woud make our dinner worth while. And he did. We ended up with one extra at the table designated for a comfortable 12 and that was okay. We also had our beloved SIL in a wheelchair to boot. We thought that would not be possible when we were expecting 20. Needles to say, we were not rushed, our food was excellent, we had good conversation around a round table and to add,.....it was a great experience. If ANYTHING, the room we were in could actual benefit from adding material or whatever on the walls, ceiling in order to cut way back on the noise. The table for 12 was far better than having 13 seated in a long table but noise barriers would help 100%. Thank you DRAGON COURT for an excellent experience You were recommeded by one of the folks who was at our table and did not disappoint.”

“Went for dinner tonight with a good friend who had never been to Rise Above Pizza and Wings before, so we tried a little bit of everything. Sweet potato fries and the delicious sesame slaw paired with an order of wings in two flavours (maple garlic and Sriracha lime, yum!), plus the Carbonara Pizza at the recommendation of Spencer, our server. Every bite of the meal was amazing, especially the crispy texture of the wings and the creamy balance of the pizza sauce. Spencer took the whole experience to the next level though with their sparkling energy, attentiveness and friendliness from our entry all the way to perfectly divided bills at the end. The food was amazing and the service took the whole experience to the next level - can't wait to come back!”

“This review for Annalakshmi restaurant on Main West is mainly for non-Indian patrons simply because I cannot presume to know enough about Indian cuisine and completely appreciate the nuance of their cooking. However, that said, I know my own palette and I’ll say with conviction the Butter Garlic Masala Dosa I had was fantastic! The taste was wonderfully garlicky and the sauces a great compliment. The other dish I tried was an appetizer Medhu Vada Plate which consisted of four lentil “donuts” with a dipping sauce that could have easily been its own soup it was so delicious. Highly recommended, 100% vegetarian. If there were any negatives depending on your preference in Indian Food, there is a lot of deep-fried selections, lots of bread in various forms and no meat. Take your time with the menu and ask your server questions because between the above mentioned items is a lot of tasty gems!”

“We had Hutches on the Beach yesterday for Good Friday and I recommend 10/10! With it being their busiest day of the year we still got our food hot and fresh, it was delicious and reasonably priced for 3 adults to each have a meal and be stuffed afterwards. The restaurant was clean and tidy and wow the employees are such hard workers! Krystle served us and she was very kind and pleasant to talk to, she was fast and efficient at doing her tasks. Kudos to your whole team! Can't wait to come back again.”

Timmy's Tanür 920 Upper Wentworth St Unit 12, Hamilton Mediterranean • $

“I don’t ever really write reviews on restaurants unless they are consistent with their food quality and standards. So with that being said, this is the third time I’ve ordered with Timmy’s and I definitely need to acknowledge this place. My husband and I order the same thing every time (we don’t really like change lol) and every single time with the two kebabs and rice it is ABSOLUTELY perfect. They don’t miss. The food that comes out of their kitchen is obviously made with love and care because they never let a bad plate go out. I’m not big on rice. At all. But this rice, I can eat all day, every day. They put a type of red sauce on it and a white sauce too. But it’s not what you think. It’s not the typical shawarma red and white sauce you get when you order a wrap or a plate. It’s savoury red sauce with tomatos and a little bit of kick. The white sauce seems yogurt based and it pairs absolutely perfect with the rice. And the rice, isn’t your typical white rice. It seems marinated in a way that is exploding with flavour just on its own. And don’t even get me started on the kebabs!!!! They’re juicy and big and packed full of flavour. And they give you two massive kebabs! TWO! This meal is not only filling but absolutely delicious and I’ve been addicted to Timmy’s Tanur since the moment I tried it the first time. Whether you’re dining in, taking out, using Uber eats or door dash, this restaurant will NEVER disappoint. They even throw in a delicious pita to make sure you’re full! Absolutely wonderful! I recommend this place to everyone and anyone!!!”

“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.”

Milestones 787 Paramount Dr, Hamilton Comfort Food • $$

“Cannot thank Morgan enough for making our evening even more special! Morgan was so fun and friendly and interactive. Asked right away if there was something special that brought us in- we were there celebrating my daughter’s university graduation. She made the experience just that- more than a dinner- it was an experience. We laughed and Morgan laughed right along with us! Butternut squash pasta was 10/10, chicken tacos above what was expected - the bruschetta was a perfect starter! Personally I didn’t feel the steak lived up to the hype of a Milestones steak- but was still delicious. We plan to return for more “milestones” to this Milestones location! Thanks Morgan!!!!”
