    Great experience. The wild game pie was a bit salty. The prices were a little high for what you get, but it was still an excellent experience. Good for a date night. The service is great if you want an evening to chat & linger.

    Went for a birthday dinner here and everything was amazing. It was our first visit but I’ve heard about how good this place was from friends. It did not disappoint, service was great (Thank you Faith!), the food was amazing, everything tasted so fresh and they have a very well put together and cohesive menu. The overall experience was wonderful, they even placed a little decoration on the table since they knew it was a birthday celebration and offer a free dessert for special occasions. We heard they might be stopping dinner services which is such a shame as everything was so delicious. Amazing job to everyone involved in making this place run!

    An overall very excellent experience. Great food great service great conversation. My only feedback is that I had requested a standard table and we were seated at a high top. My fault for not requesting a change.

    A lovely restaurant and really close to Theatre Aquarius. Service was great as were servers. Liked the various wild game options - different than most restaurants. Didn’t have the cocktails but they looked yummy.

    My bf and I ate here for the first time last night; it was very aesthetically pleasing and the food and drink were different from most restaurants, but very tasty none the less! The only downfall is that it’s such a small place, located in a basement, so it gets noisy in there fairly quick. Great for social gatherings! Only don’t recommend if you’d like somewhere more quiet to enjoy your dinner. Other than that, lovely place! I would definitely request a high top next time.

    Fantastic little secret getaway with superbly presented food that's just as delicious! Nice and quiet for intimate conversations and jazz music rounding out the ambience. Well done, Hamilton!

    Our server, Maria, was delightful and attentive. We celebrated my husband’s birthday there, and they were thoughtful and kind during our celebration. The food was delicious. The gentleman with the guitar played beautifully.
