Born And Raised

The BEST Calabrese pizza I have ever had!!! This place has fantastic food. We stopped in randomly looking for a bite to eat and so happy that we did. The owner found us a table even thought it was pretty packed on a Friday night. The owner was extremely friendly and service was quick. I will definitely be back to have the Calabrese and other items from the menu.

Freaking delicious place to dine - don't be fooled by the online table booking app, there's also seating available at the bar, so they may be able to squeeze you in without a reservation. It was also a little tricky to find the right entrance - it's through the patio and not very obvious. Food was definitely worth persisting. The steak on a bed of broccolini was huge and probably meant for two people to share, but I ate it all. Prepared with more salt and rub than I'm used to, but still enjoyed it. Thr bartender mixed up a tasty mocktail for me with an orange juice base and it was very tasty.

Came here on a last minute reservation at 9pm and the place was still full of energy! I heard this was one of the best restaurants in hamilton and it did not let down! The prices are fair for the size and quality of the dishes. We tried the mushroom gnocchi and seared scallops which melted in my mouth, will definitely be coming back just for these plates!

I am really picky about Italian food, but this place really checked all the boxes! We came in for a late dinner on the way home, and we had the Burratta (absolutely delicious, creamy, served with a tomato and rocket salad, and toasted sourdough), the obviously home-made gnocchi with mushrooms (they were amazing, I tried them!), and my partner had Tiramisu -it was really good, although arguably mine... well....-, and a tub of "Dulce de Leche" ice cream, which does not have my endorsement, but was good as well. The staff was friendly, and attentive, and the setting is fantastic: outside, but under a roof, so you do not need the vaccination certificate, but are still sheltered. We will certainly come back!

Ive been looking forward to coming here for ages and overall the food was really good! The gnocchi was amazing! I found the vibe a little off.. some of the staff seemed.. a little preoccupied or something. I’m not sure what was going on but it wasn’t exactly comfortable. I’ll probably give it another chance but I didn’t love it as much as I was hoping
