Matt Phillips: Let my man Kyle make you a drink. Easily some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had and the only thing that surpasses the drinks, is the vibe. So welcoming, so chill, Kyle, Bobby “Bobcat”, John, and everyone else will take amazing care of you. Couldn’t ask for a better experience, food, and drinks. Hit this place up. @bornandraised management, please put Kyle’s signatures/originals on your menu, they’re too good.

Chris M: and we were all full but not overly so by the end.We had the Gnoochi, Rigatoni, Octopus, pepperoni pizza, oysters, and burrata. All highly recommended, can’t pick a favourite cause it was all great!

Maccheroni Cucina Alfresco: what do users think?

Mike Gamache: Am a bit derelict in my posting this but still want to comment.I was in Hamilton for the Canada weekend race at Toronto Motorsports Park in Cayuga, and got into town later than I had anticipated.I took a chance that they might still serve me even at 9 pm on a Thursday.To my great surprise and delight, Margherita greeted me and seated me instantly, reassuring me that I could get dinner.I already knew from a previous visit what I wanted, so it was a quick decision.Caesar salad and gnocchi gorgonozola. Both as delicious as I remembered.She suggested a tap beer and it was great.As was her service, and she put up with my corny jokes, too !And when I dared to ask if they had cannoli, she said," We could hardly claim to be an Italian restaurant if we didn't have them ! "We both laughed, that time.I highly recommend this small but fantastic little gem.Thanks, Margherita and crew.

S VIC: Food is amazingggggggggggggg and service is wholesome. Love this place

Jay: We were able to get reservations during a busy day. Sara and Marg deserve all the credit as they made our first time dine in experience an amazing one. They were so nice and welcoming from the moment we stepped in. Won’t be our last!

Jannah H: First time coming here and it’s safe to say expectations were exceeded! Margarita was our waitress and cook, she went above and beyond.

William Patterson: As a small group of family and friends, we came for dinner tonight. We had a wonderful time, great food as always and excellent service. At the table behind us was a small family without a reservation but graciously accomodated by the staff. It appeared that the husband was not able to receive the entre that he selected as it was sold out. He became upset over the matter. Unfortunately the patrons were forced to witness his rude behaviour as he admonished the wait staff, followed by his ushering his embarrassed family out the door leaving drinks behind and without paying his bill. I wish to compliment the staff and of note the head waitress òn her calm demeanor and professional handling of the situation. We look forward to our next visit.

Gary & Pam Brown: Another Great Meal.

graeme clarke: Amazing food and people.If you love Italian you have to eat here

Jacob Dawdy: Went here for a date night with the wifey and we LOVED it! The food was fantastic with great portions and a nice and easy to navigate menu plus a nice selection of drinks. Staff was nice and friendly and they all did such a great job. I loved everything about our visit!Vegetarian options: Plenty of Italian dishes that are normally meat free are available

One Duke Restaurant Hamilton: what do users think?

Dianna Featherston: .

Patricia Sabay: was great. I especially liked how it came with garlic parmesan fries with Aioli dip. We also ordered their wings, which was satisfying, but didn't feel spicy enough. Their esspresso martini was great and gave a nice kick of energy for the remainder of the night. Overall, they place is great to go to, and I will definitely revisit during their regular hours.

Laura Lynne: What a delicious meal. We had the scallops which were delicate and flavoured nicely, the coconut shrimp which were delicious and then I had the curry muscles which were a great value and delicious! We ate on the patio which was lovely. If you want a large choice and delicious flavours you will not be disappointed. We also had 4 cocktails and a jug of Sangria.

Chris Jordan: I have to say the new owners have done a tremendous job of turning this establishment into something wonderful. The food is fantastic, especially the pizza. The atmosphere when the sun goes down is a vibe and a great time. I would highly recommend checking it out for yourself.

La Piazza Allegra: what do users think?

Erinn Cudahy: so we thought it would be fine but upon entering we saw that there were two levels of seating. The ground level one was all high chairs and the regular chairs were all at the higher level. The bathrooms are down a small flight of stairs as well. We were lucky that the place was completely empty when we arrived, so that we had time to get my disabled mother up the stairs to our reservation. Was more awkward helping her down, when there were people who needed to also use the stairs.Service: our server was a delight. I'm sad to say I forget her name but she was shorter with dark hair and very energetic. She was funny and helpful, helping some people choose meals would suit them and giving her opinions when asked. She was on top of service and was very accommodating. One of the best servers I've ever had, if not the best.Atmosphere: the place is beautiful inside, but the high ceilings and hard wood let sound carry too well. It seems we were the first reservation that night so for the first half hour it was fine, but once other tables started filling up we had trouble hearing each other.Food: the Fettuccine Allegra is very good. The Pollo Parmigiano seemed to be enjoyed. I did try a little of its pasta and I and another guest in our party agree that it has the very distinct taste of boxed pasta. I don't know if the Fettuccine Allegra is box pasta as it didn't have that odd taste but the Pollo Parmigiano is impossible to eat without tasting box. I had the lamb and gnocchi. I cannot compare it to other lamb as this is my first time trying the meat but it was fall-off-the-bone and the gnocchi was very good.For dessert I had both a Cannoli and a Venetian Cannoli

Kailey Banas: Excellent food, good service and a good drink feature. I really enjoyed my evening here.

Janis Criger: Great Italian food and wonderful service. Classy, so dress up a bit.Recommended dishes Pesto Linguine, Lamb Shank, Fettuccine Allegra …

Sarah Oster: Mark just catered our wedding on May 27th 2023. Mark was quick to respond to emails and very helpful and easy to work with. He was very accommodating when I kept needing to change my number count. The food was amazing we got so many guests coming up to tell us how good the food was. The pricing was amazing and it fed all of my guests easily with leftovers to take home. I cant recommend this place enough. Thank you Mark & team!

Angelina Arabella: CHEERFUL FETUCCINES!!! I LOVE YOU 🍝🇮🇹💜THANK YOU 🙏🏻

Capri Family Restaurant: what do users think?

Stan Belmore: Excellent food always been years knot orderingBeen ordering the last six monthsAnd still awesome excellent tasteAnd lasagna is to die for my favoriteWell recommend to anyone

TOMMASO BARILLA: This is the first time since 1999 where I finally found an Italian authentic restaurant. Food was amazing portion very rich, flavour was good , I would have had more seasoning … but in the complex a nice 4 stars rating deserves ..will continuing my research toAuthentic ITALIAN RESTAURANTS… follow me for more ..Not everyone does appreciate real Italian food , in the end most eat fast food garbage so you know where They stand.Your food was good do not listen the classic” AN ITALIAN WANA BE” cuz they are not Italian just a bunch of mangis!

Phoenix Concrete & Renovations: Absolutely delicious pizza! Hot, fresh, crispy, crunchy! Will definitely return!! 100% recommended!

Luke Greco: It wasn't easy researching for a great Italian restaurant in Hamilton, but we found it at Capri. The vibe in the restaurant captures the blue of Capri well, and the staff were very friendly. There was only our group of 2 and one other on a Sunday night for dinner, and it may have been a slow day, but don't be turned off by that anyway because the food speaks for itself. We got the fried calamari and a panzerotto to start and share. The fried calamari were as good as any, light batter that stayed on and a perfect amount of salt, with a nice cocktail sauce. The panzerotto was also very tasty and seemed to be lightly fried, but not oily. Served with a side sauce which was a nice touch that not every place does. For our mains we split the eggplant parmigiana dish as it also came with a side pasta or salad and opted for a side of the broccoli pasta, both of which were excellent. I enquired about the eggplant parmigiana before ordering and was told that they recently started breading it which is exactly what I wanted to hear because if you don't do that it turns out to be a mushy mess. This one was layered and had good structure or easy cutting and texture. The sauce on it was also flavourfull. The pasta dish was also very good with a garlic olive oil base and was very fresh and cooked al dente. The portions were so big we were able to split this one main. All of that came out to just over $70 with tax and tip. We were very impressed with this hidden family gem.

Michelle Leo: I was at the restaurant Wednesday May 17th 1st the service was amazing there was one waitress and she was fabulous unfortunately. I did not get her name but oh my goodness amazing young woman. 2nd food was amazing I ended up having the chicken parm. And I got gnocchi on the side It was homemade and it was delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant I used to go to it years ago And the food is still? Amazing. You should really check it out if you're looking for good italian food in the downtown Hamilton.

Claudio's: what do users think?

Lori Lintott: ... by far, its the best I have ever had. Mushroom lovers beware, I don't think there is a pasta with more mushrooms then this!!!! I ate it so quick I forgot to take a picture, so you just have to go try it!

Colin Gagich: Had a great time here with the family for a birthday celebration. Staff are courteous and professional. Every dish we had was well received and the specials are intriguing enough to go back. I'd recommend the Beef Carpaccio as a must.Only issue was the atmosphere, it wasn't very lively and does feel like a dead restaurant. This could have been the time of day or day of week but it's noticable. Also with the open floor plan it's especially obvious when the restaurant is empty. I hope this can be turned around, I'd want nothing less for this beautiful establishment!

joseph tazzeo: We just had a wonderful dinner for three on Thursday evening. The service was attentive, informative and timely. The food was equally good...attractive, tasty and fresh. Thank you and we will be back.

Victoria's Steak & Seafood: what do users think?

Maureen Linehan: or you can enjoy a table with low lighting for a more intimate setting. For a Monday evening the place was busy, which was nice to see.As an FYI, there is no parking onsite but we found plenty of street parking and if you plan to indulge, a taxi/Uber is the best option. 5 stars all around!! We look forward to a return visit soon!

Sonic Boom 555: The service and food were amazing!!! I have been eating food in this city for 40 years! If you miss the Sirloin Cellar you need to eat here! First class place would recommend it to everyone!

Tiffany Leung: I took my family of 10 here for dinner from China and they were incredibly impressed with the food, presentation, and the level of service received by Lois! Without question, they had placed our large group in a private dining room, our waters were constantly refilled and asked how we were doing. We ordered 3 bone-in ribeye steaks and a few of their sides, the 1000 layer potato comes highly recommended and did not disappoint. This place was a show stopper and would return for a date night for a more intimate experience.

Amelia Johnson: I came here a year + ago & I went for my second time last night and I was pleasantly surprised with their upgrade menu. We got the wagyu, 1000 layer potato, truffle fries and the cheesecake. Everything was phenomenal and excited to revisit.Service was great and nice atmosphere.Victorias and conversate are the two best restaurants in Hamilton.

CIMA Enoteca: what do users think?

Saba: Amazing food, great atmosphere! Loved the experience, highly recommend!! Order the Tiramisu and Olives!! Delicious

Graeme MacKay: The pizza at this establishment consistently impresses with its delicious, fire-cooked, thin crust. The staff is not only attentive but also attractive, friendly, and fun. While slightly higher priced, this place caters to a clientele that values good food, delightful cocktails, and an extensive selection of decent wines. It is a quality restaurant bar that rivals those found in major cities, yet manages to maintain a welcoming atmosphere without any pretentiousness. To top it off, it is conveniently located just a 10-15 minute walk from my house!

Nick DelConte: So don't pass up on this dish! It's a tomato cream sauce with fennel sausage, mushrooms and fresh herbs... I really have no words other than thank you... your pasta is some of the best in the world... and we've traveled and tasted extensively...

Denise Alesi: I had dinner at CIMA, for the first time recently and it was fantastic. I loved the Kale Caesar Salad and the Calamari Fritti was delicious. My Husband enjoyed the Grilled Calamari and the Pasta Dishes were very tasty. The Staff were very friendly and attentive. Our Server, Taylor was really good. He was Professional and very accommodating. I loved the open kitchen concept and watching the Chefs prepare all of the meals was a bonus.We will definitely be back!!
