What a wonderful restaurant! We all enjoyed the food, the service was wonderful and the location and atmosphere is amazing! Certainly didn't feel like we were in Hamilton:) Looking forward to visiting again over the summer!
POSITIVES:
- Great view beside Lake Ontario
- Nice patio beside the Waterfront Trail
- Side of beet salad w/ fish and chips was a bit good
NEGATIVES:
- Shared the Feta al Forno with dinner party, for $12 it was too small (two thin slices of tomato topped with bits of Feta and four small slices of jalapeno) with 8 small, dry pieces of bread (untoasted). It wasn't explained that the appetizer was so small
- Fish was a little dry and the chips tasted frozen
- The service was very disappointing. Waited 10 minutes for our drinks and another 15 for our shared order of the Feta al Forno, it took 30 minutes after the appetizer was delivered for the mains to arrive, had to ask twice for condiments, napkins, more water. After eating, we expressed our disappointment with the meal to a waitress and we were challenged because we finished it (One hour after first sitting down, we didn't want to send it back because it took so long to get, just wanted to eat and get out - we should have said something earlier granted, but the waitress was very defensive). Waited another 15 mins after finishing in order to get our bill and get change back.
CONCLUSION:
I would love to go back because it has such a great view, but won't go until food and service improves dramatically. For the prices that are being charged, either lower the prices slightly or increase the portion.
went there for luch with my daughter in law and 3yr old grandaughter, we waited 20 minutes for a drink order to be taken, no water offered, another 50 minutes for our food, brought wrong salad with chicken,gyro was tough, and no kids menu, small bowl of pasta for 3yr old was 9.00, food was terrible, our bill was 88.00 for horrible lunch, they did not even had sprinkles for ice cream after waitress offered them, we will never return to this dump.
I'm having a hard time agreeing with the negative reviews.
I was very pleased with my meal. It's a big menu, so it's always hard to judge on one dish. It's predominantly Mediterranean with a Canadian twist, not the same ol' same ol'. Pricey indeed, but what place isn't these days?
My waitress was also very lovely. Really friendly, and advised well in our choices.
My table was also lakeside. Say what you will about the Hamilton beaches... it's fun to pretend! The patio area is lovely and I hope to return.
