Deplorable planning of staff. We arrived at 6 pm. and didn't receive our food until after 7:30. They messed up further because one person's food order was missed. What owner of a restaurant doesn't call in more staff, there was only one chef! The food was okay, nothing great! The server tried her best, but it wasn't good enough. I suggested free dessert, due to the aggravation. She hesitated and then did give us free dessert. 20 % gratuities were added to our bill. A further insult to the evening. 10% or 15% would have been more deserving. We usually give 15% but this was undeserving. The owner's may have been away, or too busy to correct this situation. Will not return again.

One of the most picturesque cafes just outside of Hamilton! A relatively small, historic brick…read morebuilding with greenery growing along the outside of its walls, blue painted window frames, and a few benches outside. You enter in to see clean, modern aesthetic cafe vibes and a rack of freshly baked sourdough from Dear Grain. The cafe connects to its outdoor seating area and feels a bit like a secret garden. There's a variety of baked goods, food, and drinks to choose from. Their espresso tends to be on the mellower side - I think it's a medium body, mild & balanced, and pairs well with milk. If you're into pour overs, Detour has an incredible selection of their own coffee bean roasts. Not a coffee fan? No problem. I also recommend this spot to pick up the best artisan style sourdough I've had in this area (if you're not close to Dear Grain Commissary in downtown Hamilton). Crunchy crust and the softest sourdough inside. Perfect for a fancy sandwich or to add to a charcuterie board! You won't regret it.

I said any place I see on my way there I will stop at. Found this place nestled in a very cute and quaint town. I walked in and ordered a large Hawaiian pizza. As I waited, I noticed a couple things.. see my photos.. honestly, that's embarrassing? You need to get your money back for those signs.. After 20 minutes my pizza was ready. It was really small and cost me $23???? Wtf??? The same size and toppings would have cost me $14 at Dominos. A local pizzeria by my house which is authentic Italian charges $23 for a huge 16 slice pizza. I got ripped off bad. To make it worse the pizza tasted really bad. The marinara and cheese weren't holding onto the bread as it should. You can tell from my pic. The ham was undercooked as well. Tasted like deli meat. Overall the pizza had no flavour. Their garlic dipping sauce was bad too. Resembled salad dressing. What hurt the most was as I was leaving.. I saw a Dominos!!! I will never return. For the locals though.. you should avoid. Way too expensive for extremely lacking quality.

Khao Soi (4/5) since they ONLY use the crunchy fried-egg noodles and drench it with with super sweet reddish chicken curry soup.

So, that's good and bad. Food will invariably be in front of you within minutes, and for this and other reasons, you'd be well advised to treat this as a family style dining experience. Order a variety of dishes to share. I've probably dined here a dozen times over the years, at least, and it's a consistent, reliable win. This time, I went with the intention of taking photos for the purposes of a review, but got distracted, so can only produce the sticky rice with peanut sauce appetizer. ;-)

I've been to a few vegan/vegetarian restaurants before, and while they've been alright, none of them have really blown me away, especially as someone who's used to enjoying meat. I finally made it there for lunch with my coworkers last week and was pleasantly surprised by how much we all enjoyed the food! From the pad Thai to the curry, the food was packed with flavour -- and I didn't even miss the meat! The soy meat and fried tofu in our dishes were delicious, and I definitely have my eye on the nasi goreng and peanut curry for next time! Service was great, food was fairly priced, and our food came out relatively quickly, which we appreciated. Though it may not look like much from the outside and it's not "fancy" by looks, this is definitely one of those hidden local gems that you must visit if you're in the Dundas/Hamilton area!

A classic spot in Hamilton for a quick lunch or to warm you up on a chilly winter's day.

Soups rotate every so often, and they have some of the most unique, ethnic soups I've ever seen, so it's great for the adventurous foodie. Pair with a half/full sandwich or side salad if you're looking for something to fill you up! Service is friendly & quick, but seating is limited.
