“it was mine and my girlfriends first time at a moxies restaurant. We had delicious food, it was a great atmosphere and music, and also had a great server named Ryan. One thing that I noticed was that he came to check on us multiple times to make sure everything was ok with our food, in which is not done at many other places. It showed that he cared about our experience and made it very pleasurable. His customer service was number 1.”
“Had a great experience at East Side Mario's! Unfortunately my meal came out late, but Rachel provided excellent service throughout and Clark, the manager, went above and beyond to make things right. They generously offered 50% off my meal and a complimentary dessert. The customer service was outstanding and I really appreciated how well they handled the situation. I'll definitely be back!”

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.”

“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.”

“At the st. Catharine’s location at the Pen Center. I’m here with my daughter. Had the wings and fries and the dessert Divide and conquer Belgian Waffle! The service is amazing but it’s a large place so we did approach the counter right away. It’s beautiful and clean. So many delicious things on the menu to choose! I highly recommend it!”

“My friend and I drove to B-Side Social from Niagara after winning a dozen free oysters and it did not disappoint! The oysters were so good we ordered an additional dozen along with the caprese salad and it was phenomenal! All of the staff was amazing. The owner (I think) or at least the GM came and chatted with us a few times, she had great energy! Our server Autumn was super cute and did a bang up job! Will def recommend and return!”
“The food was delicious. The naan was the best I have eaten in North America. It was perfect”
“When I found out about Indonesian’s Flavour I was a bit hesitant but I tried their food and was surprised and happy that I did not have to travel far such as to Mississauga or Toronto to eat satay , nasi goreng or rendang , etc . It is all in the Hammer /Farmer’s market . Hamilton is lucky to have Indonesian cuisine , which can come to you mild or really spicy . …You just have to ask . Now if we can only ask them to get a bigger restaurant with lots of chairs and tables for a truly good and yummy dining experience !”
“My friend and I love Montana's and we drive an hour to come to this specific montana's because of its amazing food quality and service. Our server Chloe was amazing, she was so sweet and did a great job taking care of us! This will always be our favourite location, can't wait to come back! Thank you again Chloe!”
“Very authentic Serbian restaurant! We went for a late lunch and ordered the dinner for two, and there were three of us. There was more than enough to eat and we took home leftovers. We had sides of shopska salata salad and lepinje (kind of a flatbread). Everything was very fresh and cooked to perfection. The meats were fresh, seasoned and cooked perfectly. Our server was very attentive and polite and made sure we had everything we needed. We will be back again soon with friends and family!”
“One of my favourite restaurant. top notch service and taste. must try.”

“We've been buying shawarma from here for quite a few years. I have to say it's the best hidden gem around with the best shawarma. We've been buying from here for so long, he knows what we like on our shawarma now.......nice personal touch. The prices are reasonable and staff is friendly.......my fave for shawarma!! I recommend Phoenicia to all.....you won't be disappointed!!”
“Tim Hortons has always been my go-to spot for a warm, comforting break and their steeped tea never disappoints. It’s rich, smooth, and brewed just right, making it one of the best you can grab on the go.
Their coffee is always satisfying and perfect for starting the day. The donuts are fresh, soft, and full of flavor definitely one of my favorite things on the menu. I also love their flatbread options, hash browns, especially the garlic and herb savory one, which is super tasty and a great quick bite.
Overall, it’s a great place for a quick, affordable meal or coffee break, and I keep coming back for those flavors.”
“This location is 5/5. I’m surprised at the other reviews, honestly. I’m sure sometimes bad things happen but I’ve lived close to this place for 3 years and have been going here 2-3x/week and my order has always been correct, “fresh” (lol for Tims) and service has been excellent. 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.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I had an amazing experience at this Tim Hortons! The staff here truly go above and beyond to make every visit enjoyable. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with friendly smiles and a welcoming attitude that really stood out.
The customer service is exceptional—orders are taken quickly and accurately, and the team is always patient, polite, and happy to help with any requests. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their work.
Even during busy times, the staff stays organized and keeps things running smoothly without ever making you feel rushed. It’s rare to see such consistent kindness and professionalism.
Highly recommend this location if you’re looking for great service and a positive experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Celebrated my birthday there last night. Rebecca made our night so very special. Food was delicious and plentiful and service was beyond great. I would rate my experience a5 out of 5. Will be back again soon.”
“as a single senior this was a fun splurge. the waiter was efficient without being obtrusive. the caesar salad and steak were perfect. the decor is lovely. highly recommend.”
“We have been coming to Joya at least once a week for the past several years. This place is outstanding in every possible way, and we are so lucky to have such great sushi locally close by.
Atmosphere is peaceful and beautiful, the service is wonderful, and the food is always consistent, clean and delicious. We love you Joya
In fact, I'm putting in an order right now”

“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!”
“The restaurant is getting better has time goes.”

“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!!!”
“Amazing food, delicious drinks, and outstanding service!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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.”

“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.”
“Their desserts are delicious. They are the best in all of GTA. The tastiest 'zainud al-sitt' you can find is in Canada, along with the best baklava. The sweetness of the desserts is perfectly balanced—not too much. As for their service, it's excellent. The staff welcome you with a smile, offer you a piece of sweetness, and serve you quickly.”

“Just wanted to give a shout out to Johnny. On Friday 1-16-26 my silver ladys had the experiece of having Johnny as our server. What an amazing young man. Very personable attentive to our needs and conversed in our conversation when we asked about life and dreams..Excellant server”

“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!”
“I have visited this location several times now and the service has been excellent every time. The employees are very polite, accommodating knowledgeable and patient. In particular there is one employee who stands out, his name is Tom. I was quite impressed because he already memorized what I order after my first visit.”
“I had an amazing experience at Gino’s Pizza, all thanks to Veerubha! From the moment I walked in, he was incredibly welcoming, kind, and genuinely attentive. It’s rare to come across someone who takes such pride in their service, and it really shows.
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.
If you’re stopping by, I highly recommend it, especially if you get served by Veerubha. Exceptional service, great vibes, and fantastic food. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Great idea. Small restaurant/cafe where dogs are allowed and welcome. I like they had a sectioned off area for the food prep and an area for customers (furry or not). They have some basic some ground rules that are basic common sense. Great concept, great location and the owners are delightful. They were very accommodating for my daughters allergies. I'll definitely take our new puppy here once we meet all of the criteria needed.”
“Can I just say, the commitment to customer service at this location is incredible. With everything that the restaurant industry has been through this year, I went in there today with my daughter for a drink and some cookies. They were so friendly and said they wanted to give my daughter her treat for free. I have been fortunate enough to have not lost my job or taken a pay cut this year. I insisted on paying because I appreciate local business. Good on you for showing your true character and commitment to your customers. And thank you for taking my order ...it is far from the last.”
“Had lunch a few days ago and it was spectacular. We were serviced by an amazing young woman Jane and she really brought a positive energy to our experience. Will come again!”
“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.”
“The food and service are all top notch! Best steak in Hamilton!”
“Crooksy’s is a true gem. Everything you could want from a neighbourhood pub. Great food, incredible prices (especially if you stick to weekly specials), fun and quality staff. Crooksy’s is the kind of place you can walk into by yourself and walk out with 3 new friends. If you haven’t tried the wings, you should!!”
“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!!”
“beautiful place for a special dinner. The atmosphere feels elegant, and the service was very good. We enjoyed the fresh oysters to start, and the roasted duck confit was rich, flavorful, and nicely presented. A great spot for a fine dining experience.”
“Great ambience, great food and amazing service, drinks out of this world!!! I highly recommend this place to everyone!”
“Have been here twice and both times the ramen was hitting!
Love the chili crisp, and the spicy sesame ramen, very tasty broth and generous bowl of soup, so comforting and filling.
The karaage chicken could use a pinch more salt but still tasty and crispy enough.
Staff is welcoming and pleasant.”
“Undefined is a true gem in downtown Hamilton! From the moment we walked in, the welcoming staff made us feel at home. Mary Karger, the General Manager, sets the tone for an exceptional dining experience. Chef Chris and Sous Chef Bryant's culinary expertise shines through in every dish. 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.”
“🪴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!”
“The best! Atmosphere, staff, menu, clientele… everything is always wonderful.”
“Always great food, drinks and service! Some of my favourite beers are brewed by these fine folks.”
“You can play the song “boys” by Charli XCX on repeat and no one will kick you out. The owner won’t be happy about it, but you won’t get kicked out. Also, wings are fire.”
“Absolutely amazing, my husband and I only recently came across Sasso and decided to give it a try, we were very impressed. From the staff to the food and everything in between we have had nothing but an exceptional experience, however it helps that our server Erika is beyond amazing at her job and is really one of the best servers we’ve ever had.”
“Food was very subpar. the garlic loaf was cold, the soup luke warm, and the chicken fingers for $21 were coated in an oil based sauce that you could not see or taste. Asked for sauce to dip and it was mostly oil mixed with a hot sauce. Yellow Currie was ok but very bland in taste. stack quesadilla was luke warm did not come with sour crème or pico de gala. it had been a long time since we had been here and it looks like it will be even longer before we ever go back. I can say that the servers were pleasant and apologetic for what came out of the kitchen.”
“I have been to Shy’s twice and have to say they have not disappointed, Our waitress was lovely tonight. if only I could remember her name! Food was fantastic mmmmmmmmmm, recommend you visit Shy’s”
“Layal and team, I can't thank you enough for the impeccable and friendly service that you and your team provided to my daughter's wedding. The food was amazing... in fact, several people commented to me that it was the best food that they had ever been served at a wedding. I couldn't agree more! As someone whose career took her to many rubber chicken dinner events, I know how remarkable it is to be served really good food at a large banquet....and it is even more remarkable that you were able to do this in the middle of a major snowstorm. As the mother of the bride, I really appreciated the warmth and friendly consideration that you showed to my daughter both in the planning and delivery of her wedding meal. You are five-star in my book!!”
“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.”
“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 tried Ramen for first time in this restaurant and I absolutely loved it. The food felt like home cooked food. Portion was perfect. Dumpling was also great. The taste felt like it did not have any artificial taste enhancers. I felt the place is providing safe and authentic food.”
“Lovely breakfast and brunch place. Restaurant was slammed but Shay handled us promptly with a smile. Jenna was also so hospitable and attentive! The food was excellent, especially the Hammy Benny with the pork belly and the french toast! Reservations recommended and def worth the wait. Good vibes!”
“Excellent service, and excellent food. We stayed at c hotel to celebrate our anniversary as we got married there years ago and wanted to return to celebrate. We ate at Baci for the first time last night and we had the pepperoni and margarita pizza. Honestly it’s some of the best pizza I may have ever had. It had the taste of Neapolitan pizza but without the flop. It was nice and crispy with a beautiful char flavour, loaded with pepperoni and cheese. I can’t wait to come back to eat again, thanks for a great dinner!”
“Best patio during warmer weather and best food! Great vibe always.”
“Nice casual spot for food and drinks. The flatbread was tasty and good for sharing, and the drinks were refreshing. It’s a good place to hang out with friends or enjoy a relaxed meal.”
“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!”
“We highly recommend this restaurant. The food is delicious, the portions are generous, the prices are very reasonable and the service is excellent and friendly. If you would like authentic mexican food, Mesa is the place to go ito enjoy a nice meal and great service. The owner is a wonderful person who always makes sure that the clients are satisfied. They also have the best churros in town!”
“I’ve been to this location many times and the quality of the food is excellent. Our Server, Linda was very hospitable and friendly . Every time I go here I’m looking forward to going again! Fantastic 11/10”
“Outstanding service! Outstanding food! Nuff said. First impressions are important. The restaurant is bright, clean and welcoming. We requested a booth and were immediately seated.
Our sever was outstanding. A total professional, she made our overall experience the difference between great to outstanding. Well done! She should teach a course on how it should be done.
I ordered the pork slouvaki dinner with Greek salad and roast potatoes. My wife ordered the veggie pita with roast potatoes.
The pork was moist and delicious and grilled perfectly. The salad was fresh, house dressing was great. Roast potatoes were delicious and cooked perfectly The pita was fresh and packed with veggies. We did not have any dessert. My only critique is they only have one selection for sugar free soda.
Overall an outstanding experience! I had lived in Cyprus for 7 months and this food brought me back .there. Great food, great vibe I would highly recommend this restaurant .”
“What a gem! Jordan's Homeside Pub nails the warm, cozy, authentic Irish pub feel that's so hard to find. The owner and staff are genuinely wonderful, friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. The food was delicious, and the whole atmosphere just makes you want to stay a while. This is the kind of place you keep coming back to. Highly recommend!”
“the best restaurants in hamilton ,ontario food service great i loved”

“Fabulous Thursday vibe night of wine and sharables! Great music, atmosphere and the brussel sprouts were the star!!”
“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.”
“So good!! Had the lobster roll, shrimp and thr NS cod, soo delicious!”
“1st time there since 2019. Our server (Kaylie?) was attentive, sweet and friendly. The white wine sangria was to die for!!! I'll be back.”

“I don’t usually write reviews about places, but my friend & I decided to come here for something light after our little adventure around hamilton. It was my first time trying this place & absolutely loved it. We ordered the calamari & tacos which were divine. All the flavours were there. We didn’t order anything with alcohol in it, but the drinks we had were still good too! I don’t wanna say her name out of respect (starts with a J), but our waitress was also super friendly & has good banter! Overall, it was a great experience & I’ll definitely be coming back 😌”
“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!”
“We celebrated our sons and FDIL Yankas shower a couple of weeks ago. I can't say enough about Guilia and her team. The set-up was beautiful and the food was delicious. We are still getting compliments ,and the future Bride and Groom were thrilled. Thank you Guilia !”
“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!”
“Lovely little spot on Barton E, close to hospital. Alice was wonderful making sure we were happy with our beverages and meal. We splurged and had the steak and eggs. Soooooo good. The cafe is on the pricey side but the food is excellent. Will go again for sure.”
“The staff are insanely personable, and not in a forced by the boss way; they just have a great crew.
Lots of regulars here, but you'll feel welcome quickly. Only been there twice and they asked me and my wife's name. Good, yummy, food. You'll just all around have a good experience. Be safe though and call, because it's obviously popular and if you're coming during dinner time on the weekends or Fridays, they have lots of reservations, which makes sense, cause they're great!! lool”
“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...”

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!”

“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.”
“Just wanted to give a shout out to Johnny. On Friday 1-16-26 my silver ladys had the experiece of having Johnny as our server. What an amazing young man. Very personable attentive to our needs and conversed in our conversation when we asked about life and dreams..Excellant server”
“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!”
“The restaurant is getting better has time goes.”
“We tried their pizza, wings, and samosa poutine, and everything was absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfect, and the quality exceeded our expectations. My family loved every bite, and we’re already planning our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone craving amazing food and a memorable dining experience!”
“stopped by Tony's Corner to pick up a salad to go with dinner which I do often. I was served by 2 of the nicest young men, really sweet. Asked about my day. Made my salad exactly to order. The food is always outstanding and I just wanted to recognize the service as such. Good Job Gentlemen.”
“We went there tonight celebrating David's birthday. It was a wonderful evening with great food and service. Emma did a great job tonight as our waitress. The new owner Patrick was stopping at each table introducing himself and making sure everything was fine. The restaurant was packed and staff were zipping around making sure everything moved smoothly. we will be 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!”

“At the st. Catharine’s location at the Pen Center. I’m here with my daughter. Had the wings and fries and the dessert Divide and conquer Belgian Waffle! The service is amazing but it’s a large place so we did approach the counter right away. It’s beautiful and clean. So many delicious things on the menu to choose! I highly recommend it!”
“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.”
“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.”
“I don't usually leave reviews but I just wanted to comment on the amazing service I always receive when coming into Kelsey's. I am made to feel welcome and service is fast and accommodating. Cailen and Emily always make delicious drinks as well as provide fantastic recommendations! I look forward to coming back and hopefully being served by them again!”
“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!!!!”

“Had to try Bonito's with my lady. We tried different pizza's so we can share and all I can say is, once you try the awesome goodness of true Italian flavor, you will be going back. Oh and don't forget the Gelato. All exquisite!”
“I'm always greeted with a smile and the food is always so good. I make it a point to go in once a week. I would recommend the Ragada Samosa Chaat and the Ragada Aloo Tikki Chaat so far.”

“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.”
