Anyhow, parking in Hamilton is dirt cheap. I still can 't believe I paid like 50 cents or a dollar, make it rain baby I have the money lols. Most restaurants in Hamilton aren 't fancy, at least there weren 't many back when I was a student. The interior design of this restaurant is pretty neat, they have a green wall and tiny center pieces on each table. Basically this is a pasta place. I think the prices are considered expensive based on where it 's located (nothing nearby) and service (took forever for food to come). Calamari I was surprised that the pieces were so thin, and did not like the overall texture. While it was crunchy (like how calamari should be), it felt kind of grainy. Not su...
Found this restaurant on Yelp on our way back to Toronto from Niagara Falls. Parking was paid but easy to find and plentiful. This place has such a cute interior! It was definitely catering to girls night out. We started with the crispy polenta fries these were the clear winner of the night. It came with a marinara and aioli sauce, and was perfectly crispy, salty, and flavorful. I wish there was a bigger version of this because it could have easily been a meal substitute. The Arugula salad was also well balanced and bright a food combination of sweet, salty, peppery, and crunchy. We got the potato Bianco pizza would not recommend this. It was very bland and burnt on the bottom. I wish we had...
The Rosemary Parmesan home fries are absolutely life-changing. I would return just for those! It seems like they slightly crush the potatoes to create more crispy edges, resulting in a wonderfully crunchy texture on the outside while remaining soft on the inside. They are also seasoned perfectly. The brunch cocktails were light and delicious; while I usually prefer more spirit-forward and complex drinks, I was pleasantly surprised. I had brunch here with a small group of girlfriends, and Caro made sure we were well taken care of. We had a reservation for 10:30 am, but it didn't seem necessary as the place wasn't too busy yet. It did get busier as lunchtime approached. The atmosphere is very...
Food: They kindly substituted in spaghetti in my carbonara. My partner got the shrimp and spaghetti. I couldn't get enough of the pasta so creamy and delicious! Polenta Fries: many others raved about it, but I was disappointed. Flavour was way too salty. I also expected my fries to have more.. crunch? And more finger sized so I could hold my fries. But they were gigantic in width, so the outside crunch was lost in the mushy interior. The sauce though, was delicious. Service: sat at the bar. I was confused because the no server came by. Gave our orders to the bartender, then got our food via a different server. Bartender was incredibly friendly and checked on us multiple times. Overall would...

I decided to try the Porchetta Benny, which featured grilled focaccia, Hollandaise sauce, and a side of half rosemary-parmesan home fries and half arugula salad. It was absolutely delicious! Their home fries were anything but ordinary; they appeared to be lightly smashed whole potatoes, cut into random pieces, and then deep-fried to a perfectly crispy brown. They were unique and incredibly crunchy! I also loved that they offered a choice of half fries and half salad, rather than just one or the other—that was a great bonus! Everyone at our table was extremely satisfied with their orders. This place will definitely make it into my list of favorite spots! Well done!
I had a great experience at this restaurant! I ordered the fried chicken pizza (the Omar) and the shrimp and spaghetti, and I thoroughly enjoyed both dishes. The combination of sweet and savory flavors from the fried chicken on the pizza was fantastic, and the pasta was just the right amount of saucy with delicious shrimp. The portions were a bit smaller than I expected, but I left feeling pleasantly satisfied, so I can't complain. (We shared the meal between two people.)
So disappointed with this place. From the moment we sat down, we were bombarded with fruit flies. They were everywhere. We moved tables to avoid them, but they just followed along. The wait staff apologized saying they were cleaning everything and they were just overwhelmed. Had I not ordered already I would have left. Thumbs down for cleanliness.
Service is always good, okay portion size and I have yet to ever have a bad dish but some have been just okay (3/5 or so) in my experience. Always a nice vibe and atmosphere when it isn't crowded.

Very good food! I had the Fettuccine primavera and my husband had the carbonara. My family had pizza and loved it. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff.
Delicious food. Small portions but good for the soul. Would recommend. Great service too!
