REVIEWS OF Berkeley North IN Hamilton

Janet Glancy

Beautiful food. Spectacular flavors and well presented. Servers are knowledgeable friendly and efficient. One of the best meals ever. My husband and I shared 3 dishes. All were prepared perfectly. Vegetarian fare is hard to find. They knocked it out of the park. The vegan cheesecake was the best ever. Great job Matt.

Amanda

Healthy lunch and very filling. The salad was delicious! Awesome spot for business lunch meetings. Love the West Coast vibe.

Leslie Murray-Leung

This is probably one of my toughest review. The dinner menu is like a tapas menu. The recommend 2-3 dishes per person to share. Like other reviews, excellent tasting food but the portions are very small. 5 stars for atmosphere, friendly staff and food taste. 3 stars for food portion.

Edward Cowan

Good service and good food at a fair price.

Jose Daniel Castrejon

Great food and staff!

Emily Pearson

Such great food to match a beautiful atmosphere. Needless to say exceptional service. I would highly recommend the fresh cheese and sourdough as well as the hummus and flatbread. All of the items on the dinner menu are delicious and are thoughtfully presented. An awesome restaurant for a date night or a social group as the dishes are catered toward sharing. All of the desserts are beyond exceptional - especially the "milk & honey". Will definitely make the trip back to try their breakfast and lunch!

Had a nice dinner here one evening. Made reservations in advance and would recommend doing the same. Was pretty busy. Tables don't offer much privacy as they are pretty close together. Food was really good. Staff were friendly and helpful in making some suggestions. Would recommend for a nice dinner centrally located in Hamilton.

A great date spot or for a meal with a few friends; doesn't look ideal for big groups. The food was great, cocktails were delicious, and overall it was a great experience.

Daniel Moscardini

Beautiful little restaurant. The staff were very friendly and the prices in line with other restaurants. The sour dough bread and fresh cheese was beyond fantastic, I could have made a meal of that alone. I got a fried chicken sandwich with …

Amazing salads and great atmosphere! Great vegetarian options

Larry Bassini

Nice place but was not impressed withy the food

Kamil siwula

Matt and his team have created one of my absolute favourite spots to eat in Hamilton. Always a good time with the most amazing food. If you are a foodie you need to come here.

Craig Gibson

First time here but won't be my last. Really excellent food ( tapas style). Interesting cocktails but I was dd so could not participate. One of the best meals I have had ever including Europe.

mark ramella

Great place to eat. Amazing tapis

Tamara DuFour

Wonderful service and delicious small plates. Lovely atmosphere.

James Koopman

The food was amazing! The service was perfect. At the server’s suggestion, we shared the four appetizers and two salads (avocado and the special) between four of us. Definitely order the Fresh Cheese and the Dumplings. We were a little skeptical of both, but were blown away. We’ve been meaning to try Berkeley North for a while, and are sad that we haven’t been here sooner. We will be back soon and often! So great!

Robert Marzetti

Great place - food service and atmosphere are excellent

William Thomson

The seating was tight at the bar, but the bartender made it better being a good host, think partial owner. Steak was great, portions for sides are little to be desired but over all a great experience, nice array of spirits. About 5ime a nice environment to eat, without the air of Intitlement...

Royal Evans

Extraordinary atmosphere and super affable service. The food was fresh and delightful. Will surely recommend this restaurant to anyone. Convenient rates and big meals. Keep up the great work.

Claudia F

I have eaten here dozens of times. Excellent service and presentation. Very flavourful tapas style dishes. However, I must say I'm disappointed by the removal of so many vegetarian options as the restaurant seems to have shifted to be more meat-centric. I understand adding more meat plates for mass appeal, but why at the expense of a long standing following of vegetarians and pescatarians in the city? Speaking on behalf of many who would like the old Berkley back.

AMAZING! I always come here first when in town from Ottawa. The Cheese and Sour Dough is the first item I order every time, no joke, its homemade cheese and is the best and addictive. The staff, everyone, is great relaxed and professional. …

James Marcaccio

Have been for brunch, lunch, and dinner and always satisfied. Most recently I had the 'create your own bowl' for lunch and it was amazing. There are also light and interesting cocktails. Portions not huge but good for me.

Kaylee Slater

The decor is contemporary and high end, with an extensive drinks menu. This place serves very small portions of each meal option meant for sharing; the waitress let us know that it was standard to order 3-5 dishes for the table to share (each dish was between 10-30 dollars each, most of them hanging in around 14 a plate). My boyfriend and I got the eggplant (11), chicken skewers (14) and shrimp tempura (14). The chicken, maybe I’m wrong, looked and tasted spongey like it was processed or frozen. Despite that, it was charred and seasoned exceptionally well. The shrimp was slightly overcooked but the flavours again were great. The eggplant was excellent. Overall I’d recommend this place for work meetings/lunches, or a group gathering of friends. A little pricey for what you get in my personal opinion, but it definitely was a positive experience and something to try out. We will be returning to see if they have any menu additions now that we know how this place works!

We had supper here tonight!! Great service!!! Great food!!!

Angelique Jenkins

With perfectly sized portions of only the best quality ingredients, Berkeley North offers a sensational dining experience. The menu for each meal is different, with the options allowing for sharing and tasting, as well as lighter personal meals. The prices come with a guarantee of only the finest ingredients; a smaller portion of what's better for you is a much more palatable option than a large portion of hormones and fillers. You can also look forward to the complex flavours of everything. Carl, the in-house cocktail connoisseur, will treat you with one of his many creations (Seriously, ask him anything. His Sazerac will make you weak in the knees). A great place for family, friends, or a solo lunch. The Webbers have outdone themselves, and I look forward to visiting again.

Kevin Johnson

Been here multiple times and it is amazing every time. Excellent place to take clients for a business lunch.

Wonderful restaurant with great waitstaff and even better food. The dietary flexibility of their menu, each items presentation, and the astounding combination of flavours makes this a perfect, intimate escape. Highly recommend the fresh cheese and cocktails.

We only stayed for a couple drinks but loved this little restaurant. Would love to come back for food in the future too! Our server was so great!!! We lucked out with a patio table on a really nice night! Highly reccomend!!

Susan Oliver

Hidden gem! I had such a great experience here with girlfriends this week. We had the avocado salad, halibut and the cheesecake and everything was amazing. I love that the food is locally sourced and super healthy. Their cheesecake is made with almond crust, cashew butter ? or some other healthy thing and I like it better than most cheesecakes. The servers were super friendly and the decor was great. I also recommend the bn Paloma cocktail it is insane!!!

Tracey Gordon

Wonderful staff. It was clear our waiter liked his job. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. Food was very tasty with attention to detail. Very nice atmosphete as well! We would definitely go back.

Great experience. The food was unbelievably delicious, locally grown, and healthy and the staff were very friendly and caring. Prices were surprisingly reasonable as well. Definitely would recommend and come back.

Kiera Shea

Had high expectations for this restaurant after reading rave reviews. Was told the wait time would be at least an hour for pick up and came in before the hour time was up and the order was already made and ready. Once home we discovered all the food was soggy, cold, and did not meet our expectations. The only food that was not soggy were the pork dumplings, which instead were rock hard to the point they were inedible.

A different dining experience a great mixture of textures and tastes. We were a party of four and we ordered six dishes it was plenty a food. The Arctic char was the highlight of the meal and highly recommended

Tania LaCaria

We haven't been out to dinner indoors since March, and we took a chance on one our favourite restaurants - Berkley North - this past week to try it out, and I can't sing their praises enough. The team was so considerate, so patient, so …

Miranda Sivilay

My friends and I had a wonderful first time, the ambience was cozy and the service was excellent. We shared the fresh pasta, mushroom dumplings, lobster salad, and artic char! Portions explained very well in advance which we appreciated and the dishes reminded us of Asian-Vietnamese fused with Italian flavours that were unique. Highly recommend all 4 to try.

Love love love it! Fantastic food. Went for the brunch. Family totally impressed!

Matt McPeak

This place changed my perception of what vegetarian dishes could be - they are well-balanced, hearty, and perfect for sharing. They recently added meat to the menu and last month's jerk chicken sandwich feature was amazing. I'll be back soon to enjoy more of the recent additions to the menu. If you like great good and attentive, informed service, this is a must try.

Tim Devlin

Amazing food drinks and service from Pippa. Food served Tapas style. All items we had were very unique and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Sheldon Gelderman

Id like to give it another shot, i ordered takeout with the intension of a mushroom craving, but after takeout it, the mushroom dumplings were encased in a soy type sauce in a container, filled to the brim. The flavours were good but soy was way overpowering... douced in this sauce...salty.. I also got the mushroom chicken sandwhich with the choice of 3 sauces i chose barbeque, again sauce over powering, didnt taste any mushroom but could see the big caps inside. The chicken was fantastic, truely amazing but i just feel like....chill out on the sauce guys... *** i must remind u this is a takeout expierience, i feel like being on a plate the measurements will be more infavour to the chefs design so i do not write this review in intension of making run away from them, but solely id suggest dinning in, because the flavours are there.

Yves Apel

Amazing lunch

Viduttam Katkar

Great food, amazing service and cool ambiance!

Sarah Smith [Staff]

Our server explained that the menu was created with the idea of ordering several dishes to share. Portions are WAY too small for sharing, unless they are expecting you to order at least half the menu. That being said, some dishes are quite expensive - 4 scallops for $22?! (Nothing else in the bowl except sauce!) Your bill is going to add up fast! We ordered three dishes, and two desserts....$100 later....we left barely full, and had to get a snack once we got home! It's a nice atmosphere, and food is definitely tasty...but they need to seriously reconsider their portion-to-price ratio.

My Girlfriend and I were here Friday November 3rd. I some how managed to book the wrong date for reservations but the hostess found us a seat. When coming here remember the menu changes frequently so don't be one of those people asking for the blueberry whatever if it isn't in season. At first I was a bit confused with the menu and the cocktail selection it was almost a Asian inspired Mexican blend. Luckily they are both my favorites. The service was absolutely outstanding . The food was remarkable, with lots of salt and sweet and something I cant quite put my finger on. The location in warm and cozy and a real mix of what i assume were parents and tables of people taking pictures of their food (you know who you are) but in a good way. Highly recommend

Jennifer Perry

8 of us celebrated a birthday and the experience was wonderful. The server was warm, knowledgeable and a real professional. The food was amazing. Listening to the server describe the menu items demonstrates the care and passion invested in each selectuon..The tastes, textures and presentation all come together beautifully. The ambience is upscale casual and relaxed. I have visited twice and both times have been impressed. Hope to return again!

Maya Sabados

Awesome restaurant!!! Always a great experience!!! Phenomenal food!

Bev Ruffo

Food was delicious! We had a vegetarian and a celiac - both were well accommodated. Service was a bit slow to start, but then very pleasant and efficient

Basia Florio

Took a friend out for her birthday (group of six) - such an amazing experience. Did the tasting menu ($40 pp) and it was outstanding food: innovative dishes, great variety and we were stuffed at the end. The service was fabulous as well - I believe our server was Amanda - so friendly and patient with our big group. Will definitely come back! (Especially for the brown butter ice cream - I’ll be dreaming about that!)

Bailey Storey

We ordered the chicken sandwich, avocado salad, mushroom dumplings, and falafel plate and everything was amazing! We dined in once before and the quality of the food stayed exactly the same during take out. Everything was fresh and delicious! If you can, do yourself a favour, take a break from home cooking, and order take out from this place.

We went for brunch - amazing service and the food was to die for! Get their version of tater tots, forget what they call them but they are delicious!

Delicious wine, delicious chicken balls & avocado salad is the perfect flavour combination. Loved it. Great date spot. Cute interior.

Alexander Borghesan

Walking in the atmosphere was quite enjoyable, the live plant wall helped to set the environment as both trendy and relaxing. After ordering I enjoyed one of the best mocktails I can think of, followed by a meal that included fresh cheese and mushroom dumplings. Desert was this vegan cheese cake like option that left me wanting to order it once more. Deffently will visit again.

Peter Arth

Great local place, wonderful atmosphere, great staff, good food. Tapas style, perfect for sharing. It's a little loud, so not the place for a quiet dinner.

David Tuttle

A very interesting and trendy place in nicely renovated building

Berkeley North was a wonderful surprise and my favourite restaurant on the King William strip! While it is higher end and the bill can grow quite quickly, I would still highly recommend. The food is light, fresh and still extremely filling! My partner and I were so stuffed we needed to be rolled out! You can taste the love put into the dishes and the quality ingredients! If you’re looking to take a special someone out for a classy, cozy dinner- Berkeley North should be your spot.

Jeannie Crawford

Probably the restaurant I recommend most in the city, love the menu, the staff, the atmosphere, the fresh cheese is absolutely divine - a must order every time.

A minor mix up in our reservation was well handled and we were politely and professionally addressed by the manager. The food was excellent. The environment although small does not seem cramped. It has great atmosphere and staff is friendly and enjoyable. It gets my 'I'll go again' rating. Well done North Berkeley.

Kate Cockbain

Incredible & creative food! You won't find a single thing you don't like. Cocktails on point, something for every diet here. Lovely staff with an intimate space - favorite spot to go when visiting Toronto and they always have something new and exciting.

(Translated) A small menu with dishes you do not get everywhere. Regional wine and bright staff. Nothing for a small thaler, but it's worth it ????????

Delicious and wonderful service. You can tell the food is exceptional quality. Would go back again. Only complaint is the chairs aren't that comfortable.

Lori Sinuita

4th visit this evening. Excellent beverage selection. Fantastic service (always very knowledgeable). For the first time ever we were not intrigued by the menu at all (personal preference...although the rib eye did catch our eye) so departed for another favourite spot. Love that the owners are working alongside their team.

Tiffany Yan

Went to Berkley North a few nights ago to try the $75, five course Prixe Fix menu. Although the menu is small (literally one page!) all of the ingredients were thoughtfully put together and artfully plated. My husband and I ended up ordering the shrimp toast, mushroom dumplings, duck salad, halibut and the Vietnamese dessert feature. All of it was amazing, but the mushroom dumplings and halibut were our stand out favourites. The service was super friendly and very knowledgeable. We loved the eclectic and modern atmosphere. Plus, that Prixe Fix menu is an incredible value. Kudos to the owner, chefs and wait staff on a great Hamilton gem. We can't wait to come back soon!

Luba Kheir

Really romantic spot for a date and the food is delicious. Just be warned it's for sharing so portion sizes aren't large and the prices can be a bit on the higher end.

Delexan Navaratnam

My friend and I wanted to try all the spots on king William and This is by far the # 1 restaurant spot as far as ambiance and quality! Service is great! 10 stars!

Kyle Andrew

Had a tremendous first time experience here the other night. Food was both delicious and creative, with dishes I had not previously thought of, and fine takes on old classics. The cocktail menu was creative and served up with great presentation. A beautiful new addition to the lava-hot Hamilton food scene. I will most assuredly return.

Fab restaurant with great staff. Unique menu that is more non-meat based.

Rebecca Murray

I thought this place was supposed to be mostly vegetarian and vegan. It had pretty limited options for both which was a pretty huge bummer.

Absolutely wonderful. Excellent food, killer cocktails, great ambiance, and a very cool neighborhood. I look forward to coming back and was so pleased with both the food and the service. One of my favourite eateries in Hamilton

I was looking for someplace to celebrate my wife's birthday. She's is a foodie with some dietary restrictions. Berkeley North came up on top of our extensive search. The food did not disappoint. Innovative selections all very well prepared and presented with accommodations were made that didn't adversely the flavour. The service was excellent and pricing reasonable. Where this place fell down was it was cold and noisy. It was a cool windy night and we asked for a seat out of the draft. We were seated near he front by the large overhead door that opens to a small bistro patio. It was chilly. My wife spent the night with her coat draped over her. The red brick decor was charming but lack of sound deadening made conversation impossible. Orders were misunderstood and din of noise really put a damper on the evening.

Joanne Hudspith

Berkeley North is fast becoming a neighbourhood favourite of ours. Small plates for sharing and great service are what draw us here. Amazing food keeps bringing us back. Teriyaki Eggplant is amazing, Tomato Toast is a taste of summer during the dark days of winter, and Cumbrae's Ribeye is done to perfection - so tender it can be cut with a butter knife. We also love the ambience, that we can have a quiet conversation without shouting over music or other noise. Keep doing a fantastic job, and we'll continue to return!

This place just keeps getting better. Lamb spring rolls, mushroom dumplings, Avocado salad and shrimp were all excellent for take-out. Service is very friendly. Can't wait to go back when they open for dining service. 5 STARS.

Katie Almas

Excellent restaurant. Love the early evening share plate meal for two! Great idea.

Jessica Petta

Very accommodating to different dietary restrictions. Have been a couple times and the wait staff is always very knowledgeable on what is vegan, what has honey, and what shares a frier with non-vegan items. With that said both times have felt kind of mediocre about the food itself, some dishes being better than others. Had the cheesecake last time and it was a bit too much dates for my taste. Missed the graham cracker crust. Menu changes frequently so would be willing to try again and maybe just get better at knowing which plates will be less thrilling than others.

Raffy Morcone

Good food but very expensive and portions small.

Went to Berkley North for the second time last night, in celebration of my upcoming birthday. We sat at the bar and had a lovely time with our bartender, who curated the drinks with great care. As for the food- absolute PERFECTION. You don't have to think too hard about it when you eat it. All the flavours are well balanced and cooked right as it should be. My boyfriend and I shared the Fresh Cheese and I had the Arctic Char. Melt in your mouth goodness!!!

Tory Kenny

Ordered takeout for the first time tonight and wishing we’d tried this place sooner. Partner had a fried chicken sandwich with fries while I had the Cali salad with side chicken. This chicken is everything my chicken-nugget-loving self wants in fried chicken. Fries were perfect. Salad was a great balance of sweet, savoury, crunchy, salty flavours between the dressing, topping, cucumbers, and beets. Berkeley North will definitely be on our rotation.

Iv D

Very nice and delicious food , great selection of wine.On a weekend a Bottle of wine is half price if you order before 6pm. Very friendly and knowledgeable personnel. I Would recommend this restaurant to everyone. Keep it up guys , Hamilton need more places like this.

Muneeb Muzaffar

amazing food, loved the ribs, the staff were awesome, and the vibes were great - make sure to check it out

Anthony Nguyen

Really enjoyed our anniversary dinner there. We had a group of 4 and both ordered the $75 share menu. Favourite items were the cheese and shrimp toast, the fried green beans, duck salad and coffee ice cream desert. The steak was amazingly tender but too thin to be perfect.

Mandeep Sidhu

Service was fantastic from when we called to make reservations, by hostess on arrival and our server. The food was some of the best we've had. We tried the rosemary garlic fries, mushroom dumplings, lamb noodles and eggplant parmesan. All of the dishes were excellent. Highly recommend.

Cris Ravazzano

Clem Moudiongui

Incredible place with a unique atmosphere and such friendly staff. Highly recommend the Arctic char because it’s absolutely incredible!

Justin Emmett D'Angelo

Hanley Mathew

Tried this place for the first time with friends for something different. It's a quaint little place on King William that fits in well with the other restaurants on the strip. The menu was a bit odd, a mismatch of asian, french and traditional. The best thing I had was the tomato toast, it was delicious. The 'tempura' shrimp was also really good, but I would not consider it to be tempura, more like just deep fried shrimp. The garlic rosemary fries were also good. Chicken balls were also liked by our table. Nothing else was notable. The deserts need work. The coffee ice cream while good had a very strange presentation with a bunch of mint leaves and a wedge of meringue. It looked stupid and was pretty annoying to eat. The chocolate cake was devoid of any flavor. The peanut brittle and ice cream were good. All in all, food was just ok, but not enough to justify the price you pay. The menu is muddled. They need to find their identity. The drinks menu was eclectic, so it would be a nice place for a drink in the summer, on their patio. The service was excellent. We were well attended for the entire night by lovely servers. Glad we tried it, but nothing struck me as wanting to come back.

Fabrizio Garcia

Great service !!!

kyla pellerin

Beautiful food in a beautiful space! Pasta, fresh cheese, and chicken skewers were all incredible. Bold but approachable flavours.Steak was good but could use a little something more to bring it up to par with the rest. But the chocolate cake with brown butter ice cream was out of this world! Upscale but cozy and relaxing space perfect for a calm date night.

Well I've been wanting to try this place for a while. Hamilton has becoming such a great culinary experience that I was quite excited about Berkeley North. Sadly it really didn't hold up, especially considering the other amazing restaurant options around. The good: Great service, good atmosphere and vibe, very aesthetically pleasing food. The bad: Sadly the food and the value. We ordered the shrimp salad, king crab and Arctic char tartar. First I'll say he shrimp salad was okay, fairly standard. Not much taste to the shrimp and all the flavour in the salad is in their fairly average coleslaw dressing. The Arctic char had no taste and was quite bland. The tapioca chips were more flavourful than the tartar. The kicker was the king crab... at 80$ a pound I had pretty high expectations and was sadly let down. Very bland king crab, minimal flavour. Best part of the dish was the delicious asparagus garnish. Honestly the food wasn't bad, but it was incredibly bland and subpar taste especially for the value. Would go for a drink as it has a good vibe but probably not return for the food. Of note the polenta fries did look quite good!

Great place like it

Sandro Mancino

Small portions for money. Very loud.

Jeremy Gabriel

Delicious food and a seasonal menu so it frequently changes. Many of the plates are tapas- style so dinner can get pricey but it's definitely worth it. Matt, the owner, and Carl the bar manager are very friendly and welcoming and will ensure you enjoy your visit!

Lucy Gall

Really great spot! The menu has unfortunately changed from sharing plates because of covid, but some people prefer it! The Berkeley North chef is amazing, the food is high quality and creative. Good vibes, friendly staff, ideal location. Perfect for a date night

Great atmosphere, attentive service and a dedicated barkeep. Perfect place for a couple's night out. Divine food and drink menu. Take it all in for a pleasant experience.

Everything tastes great and seems very creative , very few people put effort into dessert but their deserts are excellent

pretty good vegan options!

Glenn Robinson

Nice lunch options, well presented,.

Abby Ramcharan

Is it possible to give more than 5 stars?? We went to Berkley North to celebrate my birthday and had a simply amazing time. My husband had the Black Bull cocktail and it was so delicious! (I had to steal a sip!) Carl, our server, took the time to explain everything to us and we didn't feel rushed at all. We ordered the cheese toast, the katsu sandwich, and the egg noodles. Each dish was so tasty and flavourful, I knew we would have to come back sometime soon. The dishes came out one at a time, and gave us the time we needed to savour and truly enjoy each one. The vibe in the restaurant was very relaxed and cozy, which we loved - I would recommend this restaurant time and time again. We will 100% be back!

Service and food was perfect! Our reservation was a bit late (like 5 minutes) and wasn't a bother at all to us, but they offered us a complimentary glass of sparkling for waiting. We were also seated pretty promptly. Our server was really welcoming, friendly and enjoyable throughout. We always had fresh water, clear plates, new cutlery and the flow of courses was great. The food was the perfect pairing to the experience! Definitely worth checking out.

Tanner Johnson

Great spot to check out if you've never been! If you have, you already know. . . staff is excellent, food is fantastic, cali vibes are chill, not to mention they have a nice intimate patio parked right out front to people watch. Big fan of Berkeley North, and looking forward to my next visit.

I enjoyed a glass of wine with a friend on the patio recently. Beautiful evening with great service and ambience. Highly recommended!

Too expensive and the food is mediocre

Andre Terra

Food, Service, Atmosphere, the complete trifecta. Enjoyed everything we tried, it was truly an amazing experience. Pescetarian is something that tailors to my tastes perfectly and the chef delivered. Locally sourced and deliciously delivered. A Must Try!

David Hunt

I always love this place. Tonight was my 3rd time. Doesn't matter what you order 'cause ya can't go wrong! I've now tried most of the menu. It's all very flavourful, shareable plates. (And they serve Partake, for anyone who loves a legit non-alcohol pale ale!)

Nice place for an intimate dinner. I've had the same server a few times and he is great. Makes awesome recommendations and very humble.

Ordered take out last night for myself, fried chicken sandwich and the avacado crunchy salad. It was delicious and amazing presentation, even with takeout. This is such a great place, such amazing food and classy people.

Lisa Kendrick

Tasty food and delicious cocktails! The service was also fantastic. The portions are a bit on the smaller side but very tasty!

Peter Gaspar

First time diners at this place and we were not disappointed. Serving sizes are small and meant to be shared, so prepare to order 2 or 2.5 dishes per person. We started with Fresh Cheese (on sour dough toast) and the Mushroom Dumplings. We chose the Arctic Char and Ribeye Steak for our mains. Although not big dessert people we shared the Chocolate Cake (topped with a scoop of vanilla and peanut brittle). To boil it down to a single word, the food was fantastic. Dish pricing is a bit high. With our four plates, dessert, a bottle of half price wine and one mixed drink and a tea our cheque came to $150. Don't focus on the cost, it was well worth it. I would highly recommend getting a reservation (can call or book thru the website). We had a 5:15 res on a Saturday and it was packed by 5:45. Worthy of note most bottles of wine are half price on Fri & Sat between 5 & 6. The service was over the top. Our server Andrea was attentive (but never hovering), answered questions honestly and made us feel really welcome. We will definitely return.

We can't say enough good things about the food/service/atmosphere. The food is amazing the service is fantastic and the atmosphere is delightful. Everyone will go above and beyond to make your dinning experience wonderful. This is the BEST restaurant that we have ever gone to!!!

Fabulous restaurant with very accommodating staff

BIG fan of the halibut dish with truffle potatoes! Also worth trying: the mushroom dumplings and the house cheese with sourdough. Would definitely come back next time I'm in Hamilton.

Good atmosphere, tasty food. Definitely recommend, go try it!

Greg Mills

Enjoyed an absolutely sublime and wonderful meal here last night with friends - reservations are definitely recommended as this small room fills up quickly, and 1st serving diners aren’t encouraged to linger - we arrived at 730 and our table was still occupied by 1st serving crowd. In any event, we were seated quickly, and then set forth on going up and down the menu. -I’m no particular order, I can recommend the eggplant ( addictive), the crispy beef, the fried polenta, the Arctic char (best I’ve ever had), the rosemary Asiago fries, the breaded shrimp, and the flourless brownie. Portions are small, but the richness and flavour of the food will leave you well satisfied. Gracious service and attention, and dishes arrived with proper explanation and changes of cutlery. An overall proper and well run kitchen cranking out immense flavours and combinations Korean/pan-Asian/Canadian,some nods to classic French . Highly recommended for an upscale dining experience in Hamilton. I’ll be back.

Amanda Campanaro

After a very positive review and recommendation from some friends along with a great experience at the Collective Arts/Brux House/Berkeley North collaborative event, I had to give this place a try and I'm so glad that I did. Easy going and informative staff was my first impression along with a menu that has many fresh options for anyone's needs (very vegetarian and vegan friendly!) I was happy to go for lunch and will certainly be back for dinner and brunch.

Bernard B

Atmosphere is cozy and has a nice patio. Service was exceedingly fake and over friendly. Pricing was pretty high considering the ingredients. The duck pate was delicious. The tuna crudo was extremely disappointing. The fish was off colored and the ponzu sauce was disgusting. A gelatinous plate of overpowering saltiness that completely overpowered the taste of the protein. Mushroom dumplings were basic. I can't stand when servers try to hype up mundane food. It seems like they're trying to convince you it's good. Your food isn't that great.

Paola Mancini

Great food love the sharing food idea. Great service!! I will go back again!!

This restaurant is suitable for patrons of all ages. Food portions were small, and service was excellent.

Absolutely incredible. I loved their steak and the frites were killer. Well done!

Kelly Fremlin

Maddie Burella

The atmosphere alone is worth 5 stars. Staff are attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was amazing! Only not-so-great item was the sourdough toast with cheese, $13 for a single slice of bread felt a little silly. Overall our experience was amazing and I highly recommend them!

Anastasia Hagey

I remember the food being unique and delicious, its been too long I need to come back to experience it all again!

Great healthy food cooked perfectly, and great service.

Fabulous

Matt Gibson

Took my mom and dad for a birthday dinner for my mom. We had an incredible meal, and the staff were all so friendly and welcoming! We definitely walked out very stuffed with delicious dishes, and they even brought a little dish of brown butter ice cream for my mom! My mom was raving about it the whole way home, we will definitely be back.

Marcos Salsbury

We absolutely loved Berkley North! Everything from the food, drinks, service, to ambience was incredible. Every dish we tried was creative and delicious with beautiful presentation. The edamame dumplings, falafel, and potatoes are a must try. Drinks were also fantastic. Will definitely be returning soon!

Palak Nayyar

Awesome food. Nice strong drinks. Only drawback - it was our anniversary and my husband had ordered a cheesecake in advance as a surprise but they ran out of it.

Z. Cai

Berkeley North presents an small but interesting collection of dishes which feature rarely seen flavor combinations that captivate the tongue. The settings is nicely decorated and the service was good. But Berkeley North is really just about the food. I especially liked the Fresh Pasta which was more like a dessert and the Shrimp Toast. If you're getting the tasting menu for two, it's not a bad value, although the portions are on the small side.

Gord Stephan

great assortment of food made to share. the falafels in particular are absolutely mouth watering. great atmosphere and more than enough staff . good selection of beer and drinks and the desert cheesecake was awesome.

Katie Rakoczy

These guys are changing customer experience game in Hamilton. I can't think of another place that goes above and beyond to impress! The food is creative, share worthy and absolutely delicious. Since adding meat to the menu, I make sure it's on our list of places to get to every month and I'm confident recommending Berkeley North to anyone who asks.

We stop in during a bike ride - I definitely felt underdressed for the restaurant but nonetheless our waiter was really nice. They had the bay door open which was nice and the food was incredible. They only have a couple items to choose from but they definitely make them well.

Kate Rancourt

I had a really interesting and positive experience at Berkeley North! I went to eat there solo while I was in Hamilton, and a server didn't come to my table for quite a long time. I assumed it was because they thought I was waiting for someone else. I flagged down the hostess, and a server came quickly and was very apologetic. I ordered two small plates - the edamame dumplings and polenta fries. I felt the food was mediocre, but it may have been the dishes I ordered. I was offered a dessert on the house for the late service and ordered the chocolate cake, which was good. At the end of my meal, I realized I left my wallet in my hotel room. I told my server I would leave my phone and run to get it. She went to talk to the owner, who came up to me and said that because of the late service, we would call it even. They generously covered my whole meal. It was really the most remarkable service I've ever had in a restaurant and I surely think it warrants a trip back if I am in Hamilton again!

Joshua Lombardo-Bottema

Great atmosphere, great service. The only thing is that the portions are kinda small for the price

Lara Saliba

We were excited to try out this place since we're new to the area. It's a very cute, stylish, bright place and we felt like we would feel comfortable settling in for a long meal. One of us ordered coffee, and they brought one of those cute sand timers like the ones you use in board games to time the French press. We loved that and thought it was such a fun touch and creative idea! The sourdough toast side was delicious - great flavour, generously buttered which we loved, and not too crunchy or sharp as toast can be at a lot of restaurants. The flavour was excellent with fragrant herbs, salty, and the perfect amount of butter with no unmelted lumps. We loved the Berkeley North salad with falafel. The combinations of flavours and textures were excellent. Our favourites components were the pearl couscous, pickled carrots, pomegranate, and avocado. The avocado was a great level of ripe, and very thinly sliced which we found makes it more palatable in terms of texture and easier to eat. The pearl couscous added a soft texture to it and held the flavour of the lemon vinaigrette very well, which was refreshing, flavourful, but not too strong or oily. The pickled carrots contributed a great sharp and sour element, and the falafel was mouthwatering, I would just add a touch more cumin. We asked to have the salad split between two of us, which made the perfect portion size. We were very satisfied and definitely wanted to order that salad again. Someone else in our group ordered their B.L.T sandwich, and they loved it, especially the bread and the tomato jam. All of us were too full to look at a dessert menu but given how much we enjoyed our mains we would be interested to go back and try it for dinner or brunch perhaps. Although our server seemed a bit impatient at times, overall our service experience was good. The food exceeded our expectations and we would definitely recommend you go in and try their delicious menu options.

Michael Crawford

Went here for lunch with my wife. She had the BLT and I had the fish and chips. We went because of the top Canadian restaurant article/rating that we saw. The restaurant was extremely clean, including the restrooms. The water glasses and cutlery were absolutely spotless. So clean that I’m actually making a point of it. The fish was just ok (have had much better elsewhere) and the fries were good. The fish batter was a little soggy. The BLT was really good on the other hand. The Relay coffee was amazing. Despite my fish being a little soggy, I’m still giving a 5-star review as the atmosphere was awesome and my wife’s dish was just as great.

Mushroom dumplings!!! You have to try that ... hurry!

Wondered upon this restaurant by accident. Decided to go in and was not disappointed. We stuck with more vegetarian options due to some of our friend's dietary constrictions, but was very satisfied An edit; On my second visit, I was fairly disappointed in the options. The mains were mediocre, and the only special dish was the avocado salad. The fried chicken sandwich is worse than any I’ve had at fast food restaurants

Always a great experience.

COVID guidelines strictly adhered to, even a bottle of hand sanitizer provided for our table. Dumplings and shrimp tempura highly recommended. All sandwiches are fresh and delicious. Salad ingredients and dressings very innovative. Parking across the street (IMPark), some on KW. Calm relaxed ambience, terrific service. Owner stopped by our table to thank us for our attendance. A definite must try...takeout available as well..

Mona Torres

Went for dinner on November 3 and it blew us all away. We had the Duck Pate, Fresh Cheese Toast and fries to start with cocktails which were all delicious. The Duck Pate was especially tasty, we dipped our fries in it too! Next we all shared the Salmon Crudo, Duck Salad, Lamb Egg Noodles and Ribeye. A few things - 1) best steak I've ever had and 2) Szechuan. The Duck Salad and Lamb Noodles both had Szechuan pepper in them and wow. T makes your mouth tingle so delightfully. Loved the atmosphere here as well, they encourage sharing everything, which is what we did and it was a great way to experience everything. Service was great. Will most definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

Amber Dawkins

Fresh, healthy, delicious shared plates. Great wine selection.

Carl is amazing! This restaurant is incredible all around from atmosphere and people to food and drinks!

Shane Rambhaccus

Enjoyed truly an extraordinary culinary experience at this restaurant recently. We were a large group so the chef offered us a tasting menu featuring highlights from the standard menu and some specialities for the day. Words cannot describe the brilliance to each menu item but all I can say is that you need to experience it for yourself… The bar menu and cocktails were diverse and unique and each one that I tasted was perfectly put together. This is THE restaurant in Hamilton and a must try by locals and visitors alike with a great take on vegetarian, vegan and pescatarian cuisine.

I’ve dined in here before and it’s always really good. But this is best place we’ve had take out from since the first lockdown. Im so use to the take out food not being as good as the dine in experience. I’m not sure if they designed their menu with taking the food away in mind or if it’s just sheer luck but regardless it works so well! The pork dumplings and the falafel plate were the stand outs for sure!

Sid Anand

Daniel Capoferri

Love this place! Their menu is consistently top notch, with amazingly fresh food and chefs who prepare it perfectly. Though the portions may appear small, they can be quite deceiving and very filling. Grab a few plates and share among friends. You will not be disappointed. They also have a great cocktail menu and support a number of local breweries. Their wait staff are extremely friendly and hospitable. Highly recommended.

Samantha Coronel

Ana Moaz

I came here for breakfast with my sister and the food was awesome! We got the shakshuka and quiche, the shakshuka was more than enough for both of us and we took the quiche to go. Our server was super friendly and they’ve decorated the restaurant very nicely! Love the plants and style of this place.

Not a huge menu but what they do, they do well. Food was enjoyed by our entire group of 8.

Pretty good food! The mushroom dumplings were definitely my highlight and the agnolotti was good, not mind blowing but definitely a refreshing dish!

Miquela Roeleveld

This place has it all, and won’t disappoint. Down-to-earth staff, great atmosphere and the food is phenomenal. Fresh cheese is a must, and the duck pate is on point. But let’s be honest .. everything will blow your mind.

Paul Kolba

Dan Moldaver

We, a group of 4, attended Berkeley North recently. In short, it was less than acceptable. We had the sourdough and house made cheese, hummus, polenta fries, edamame dumplings and potatoes salad. To give credit where due, the dumplings were quite good, although they were far to buttery. Moving on, the potatoes salad was atrocious. An unseasoned egg with 3 prices of potatoe and unseasoned, burnt brioche 'croutons' amounted to a tasteless mess. The house made cheese was OK, but bathed in too much oil, while the bread that was with it was terrible, as it was clear that the restaurant opted for a trendy bread, rather than a well made bread. Then, they tried to cover up the quality of the bread by bathing it in butter till it was literally dripping. The remainder of the items don't warrant discussion, aside from a weird tinny after taste associated with the polenta fries accompanying red sauce. In short, Berkeley North is a clear attempt to make a trendy restaurant, with appropriate decor, service and pricing. However, they pale in comparison to a couple restaurants just a few doors down.

Had a reservation...thank goodness...as the place was packed on a Wednesday night. The shared plates that four of us experienced were super. Just ask your server what are the best ones and voila you have gourmet food as they make their own bread, pates and deserts etc. We had a desert that the chef had experimented with for over a month before releasing it to the public and it was just a mind blower in terms of taste. I could have eaten 10 of them. They have a first class chef and the staff and owners are super. This restaurant is a real gem. Oh and they had bottles of wine at half price!!

Tansy Chau

Vegetarian / seafood cuisine. Beautifully crafted plates with a wealth of flavour. Shareable plates. Kind and informative staff. Not cheap, but fairly priced. Business casual dress. Nice decor and atmosphere. Good for small groups or alone. Great drinks.

Tasia Gravesande

A good friend of mine introduced me to this place. The owner was welcoming and so was the staff. I had a gin cocktail that was delicious! The food was really good! I had the Ribeye which is incredible, no joke!! I took most of it home because I was full and I kid you not, the next day, it was just as good!! Compliments to the chef!! I will definitely recommend this restaurant to family/friends and return for a visit.

The staff were amazing! The food was absolutely amazing! They were accommodating with my dairy allergy. I usually just need to know if food has dairy and if it does I will pick something that doesn't. But they offered to alter any dish to make sure I could have it. Their desserts were perfect!

Rene Papin

Candice Gilliam

My experience here was o-k. Staff was friendly and attentive. Atmosphere is really nice. The food, for me, was alright... I don't know. I was expecting more and it fell short. I appreciate the focus on seasonal and it being a west coast inspired restaurant. Half priced bottles of wine was a great treat! I will be back to give it another go eventually. I haven't written this place off... it just didn't hold up against other restaurants I've eaten at in the area.

It was pretty good. Menu is short and sweet.

Lovely ambiance and great food. Met up with some great friends so we got to sample lots of things. Parking can be an issue. Would definitely go back. Was a perfect day and we sat inside but the windows were wide so the best of both worlds.

Great food and our waitress Danielle was very imformative. It was my first time here and she was very patient when explaining the menu to me. Food was awesome !

Nice atmosphere and service was great, but the portions are very small. For two people we ended up ordering 4 tapas and an entree, and left still being a little hungry.

Leyana Martinez

I really enjoyed my fish and chips. My friend also love is lunch. The people working there are people person and take good care of you. I recommend.

Stephen Jones

The food was amazing but our waiter Matthew made the evening spectacular. He let us know the specialties and described them so well we had to say yes and we were not disappointed. We were worried that we ordered too much food with two apps and two mains but he promised to pace everything. Started with the mushroom dumplings with ginger and scallions. Fabulous. Then had the Teriyaki Eggplant. Fabulous again. Schnitzel was on the menu but not available so Matthew proudly advised that there was a substitute Rib Eye sliced in a delectable sauce with tiny brussel sprouts and other tasty surprises. We realized we were then pleasantly satiated so we told Matthew and he asked if still wanted the 4th and final item, Arctic Char, that we ordered. We said no thank you and he said no problem. He could have suggested it was so good and convinced us but we didn't need the extra food. We will definitely be back and ask for Matthew to be our waiter. Started with a Blue Moon each and then a beer for me and wine for my partner. $100 + big tip. Very reasonable for an amazing dinner. Topped it off with Il Divo at FOnt Concert Hall. Doesn't get much better. Only complaint was that restaurant was full and quite noisy.

Very disappointed. I don’t mind to spend extra money for their tapas style menu but here it was nothing special. The dumpling was good but I had better for half price in a good dumpling restaurant. The shrimp were ok but definitely not worth the price and the duck salad ... oh well...we decided to stop there. The service was OK, I am not sure the waitress had much experience. Anyway, for this price I was thinking of a very special experience but the overall feeling is they are having a laugh. There is definitely better restaurants, specially in this street or downtown Hamilton. And if you want a true modern take on a tapas/small share meal style, I would recommend « backhouse » in Niagara on the lake, definitely worth the drive.

Kate Van Rijn

Berkeley North is a true gem in the downtown area. Offering a tapas-style dining experience paired with a hip - without being overly-designed or cluttered - decor, this restaurant was everything we could have asked for in a dining experience (and it was an experience!). Service was fantastic (knowledgeable, attentive and friendly without hovering or making us feel rushed) and the mixed drinks (which a bit pricey and took a long time to come out) were beautifully crafted, unique and so so good. But the star of this restaurant is the food (as it should be with restaurants) Between 5 of us we shared a total of 11 dishes and 3 desserts. This was a bit excessive and we all left absolutely stuffed, but everything was AMAZING. Standout items were the Fresh Cheese on sourdough toast, Teriyaki Eggplant (I dont usually even like eggplant!), Avocado Salad, and Fresh Pasta. The coffee ice-cream was also out of this world. Would I return? In a heart beat.

Rachel H

This was easily the best meal I've ever had. Small menu which is fine because everything is done to perfection. The tuna was outstanding. Leaves me craving and wanting more. Everything was great and our server was amazing as well. Will come back for sure

Bety Bautista

Heard great things about this place. Because of COVID the patio was open so we went for 8pm to avoid the heat. By the time we got there they were sold out of 3 of their main dishes. Mushroom dumplings were way too salty. My salad had none of the ingredients written on the menu list. The only exceptional thing on the menu was their chocolate tort. Not sure who is managing this place but I will not go back. Overly priced for sub par food.

Sarah Mcdonald

Liz Gmehling

NOTE: If you are into the sit down and pig out style of dining with big slabs of meat and potatoes this isn't the place for you. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Atmosphere was lovely, casual chic. Menu is simple and each dish is really a surprise which makes it that much more appealing. The tapas style dining is perfect for relaxing and enjoying some wine/drinks and conversation with friends with grazing style of eating. Our plates floated in as they were ready and it was a real treat to discover all the flavours and layered textures of each dish. We had 5 dishes between the 3 of us and it was satisfying enough. You shouldn't have to eat a lot to be satisfied. Hence my disclaimer up top. I was particularly impressed with the swapping out of dirty plates after a couple dishes so that the flavours of the dishes to come don't get mixed in with the others you've already experienced. Thumbs up! We had the mushroom dumplings (delish and flavourful), the teryaki eggplant (OMG SO GOOD), avocado salad (swoon worthy), shrimp was meaty and lovely and the fries were just right. Was a lovely evening with great gals celebrating my birthday. Will be back again!

Alaina Blancher

There is nothing like being able to talk to a bartender about the way you like to drink. Beautiful cocktails crafted slowly and with purpose. Tonight I had one of the best cocktails; off menu and recommended. Very comfortable seating and balanced atmosphere. I can’t wait to return for dinner.

I have eaten at BN a couple of time over the past 2 years and remember enjoying it very much. But this year, with COVID reopening, I dined on their street patio 4 times in 5 days. Each time was a fabulous dining experience. The menu is limited (this is a COVID reality for all restaurants and I totally understand why). I think we sampled everything on the menu and have yet to find anything we would not eagerly order again. And the cocktails - they are amazing. The servers and staff are warm, friendly and attentive. I am from Montreal (where restaurants are still not open). Could NB open a sister resto in Montreal please? (Wait until the circumstances are right but you would be a total hit).

Ok...before you get all bent out of shape that it is 3 stars, I have validation for this rating. We walked in on our way by looking for a place to have dinner. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was nice. Didn't feel stuffy. They were knowledgeable with the needs of gluten free options and explained the menu well. There were four of us and understood that the restaurant is essentially a tapas style restaurant, so we ordered a fair number of plates to share. None of us are large meal eaters so this seemed like a good way for us to try a few different dishes. The food was all delicious, but, and this is a big but, the portions are quite sad. Barely a bite for each one of us for each dish. We want to see this restaurant succeed and I am sorry but if you're in Hamilton, this just won't. We don't need an all you can eat buffet but seriously, amp up the portions and you'll get some return customers as the food is quite tasty.

Robert Lemke

Top notch food at reasonable price point. Service was excellent.

Paulette Kruchka

My first visit, upon arrival I found my greeting warm and friendly, however when it’s extremely warm and humid a cold glass of water is much more appreciated than the warm glass I received. I was meeting a friend for dinner, we shared mushroom dumplings and tempura shrimp. The dumplings were tasty but not hot, the shrimp was large but had very little flavour. I had pasta which was good, tasty but a little too el dente for my taste. My friend had ribs, just a stack of meat , nothing with them. We flagged our server for a side salad that seem to take a very long time. It finally arrived and was probably the most tasty thing we had. Over all it was good… but for the money and expectation, it was just ok for both of us. We both agreed we probably would try somewhere else next time.

I'd heard good things about this halal burger restaurant. I got a lunch special of a beef bacon cheeseburger with fries and a drink for $11.50. My friends got the juicy Lucy and we split both. The juicy lucy cost about $10. It is a bit pricey but that's how much things cost in Cali so I wasn't shocked.

Barry Mason

Good food. Surprisingly, the best dish was the salad. Although all of the food was good, the salad was the one that actually surprised my tastebuds.

With a red brick wall, modern lighting, green succulent plants, and comfy booths, Berkeley North is nicely decorated and has a casual atmosphere. They have an interesting selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and there are half off deals almost everyday. Around 5:30 pm on a weekday night, the place didn't seem too busy, then more people started coming in as time passed and the restaurant became full after 6 pm. We ordered Teriyaki Eggplant, Mushroom Dumplings, Shrimp Tempura and Rib-eye Steak, and as two tiny people, we were more than full by the middle of last dish. We started with Mushroom Dumplings and it was nothing special. I wouldn't order it again. I liked the next dish, Teriyaki Eggplant. It was crispy, sweet and sticky with peanuts. It was the best dish for me. I would be careful in eating this dish, because it really sticks in your teeth. Shrimp Tempura was great. It's a tasty combination with the mayo. Lastly, I really enjoyed the fries that came with the Rib-eye Steak. The waitress told us that the steak would be cooked rare to medium and though I was warned before ordering the dish, I'd prefer more medium to well-done steak. At least my hubby loved every bite of the steak. The service was attentive and friendly. Overall, Berkeley North was a pleasant place to dine in and maybe I'd try their sandwiches next time.

Came here for my birthday with our young family. Service was gracious and professional. The vibe is chill and elegant at the same time. Has a fresh Vancouver feel. Can't remember what I ate. Will be back without the littlest ones hopefully.

Dan Jaworski

The food was impeccable, the drinks were amazing, and the staff were wonderful. An awesome place to show off to friends or family or to celebrate something. A must.

Stephanie Nuzzi

Tapas style plates. It can get a bit pricey so bring couple friends and share a few dishes. We had a local pale ale that was very tasty. Most food is locally sourced, with bread and fresh cheese made in house. Definitely recommend, will return for sure

10 stars would be more accurate! Exceptional service, top tier menu with a plethora of options to appease any pallette. If you haven't been yet you need to go. We'll done Matt, Dianna and the whole Berkley staff.

A small chic restaurant that excels in customer service. My husband ordered one of their craft drinks and was pleasantly surprised.

The food was awsome

Favourite spot! This place stands out in Hamilton and the staff go above and beyond for their guests. Chef John is incredibly creative and one can easily tell that he is very passionate about his work and the thoughtfulness put into the menu. The owners are like none other- kind, welcoming, and make you feel at home. Cocktails are the best in the city. This is the type of place where you will dream about the meal you had the next day.

We came in on a Wednesday night after walking by and honestly felt kind of like we stumbled into a dream. The restaurant is cozy but not cramped with a relaxed vibe. We loved the decor which was clean and fresh with a cool living style wall near the patio. Our waitress Amanda was friendly, enthusiastic and helpful. We split the tasting menu and a truly glorious bottle of wine (not telling because we intend to eventually drink them all!). The food was superb. We had the cheese toast which was beautiful whipped airy perfection on a deliciious piece of homemade bread. The teriyake egglplant take on fries had my partner in a complete love haze. The tuna with a beautiful bite of chili was my fave. We topped off mains with perfectly cooked ribeye and followed that with a cheezecake that was not at all dense or heavy so perfect for our tastes - also vegan! Every single bite was delicious. We were both full from the tasting menu and felt the price was very reasonable. We had gone out on a whim celebrating a move to Hamilton and feel even better about our life choices knowing this place is now in our neck of the woods!

Colleen Opdahl

This was the best overall restaurant experience I have had in a long time. Our server Grace introduced us to not only the menu which is meant to be shared as a family style appie dinner, but also her knowledge of each dish. We had tasted none of the beautiful food this restaurant had to offer before ,but loved every bite. Cannot say enough good things about this experience. Charming space. Lovely staff. Exquisite food that you need to try and savor. Trust your server and enjoy a culinary delight. Thank you for a family food night we will not forget.

Ben Britton

Always amazing food, great atmosphere!!

Cheryl Oliver

We tried 5 dishes from the menu as well as a dessert and everything was excellent! The service was wonderful, everyone was very knowledgable about the menu and the suggested wine was great. We will definitely be back.

Steven Baker

Best place hands down! From the great staff and owners, to the great selection of amazing food! The avocado salad is 1 of a kind, absolutely mouth watering! Thank you Matt and the team at Berkeley North your hard work is much appreciated!

My family and I just had the most amazing meal from berkeley north! I went down to pick it up and couldn't have had a better meal. We ordered the four sandwiches from the berkeley bundles and grabbed some salads, fries which are unreal, chicken skewers that had amazing flavour and the shrimp tempura which as an experienced foodie is the single best app I've ever tried agreed upon by the whole family. This has always been a restaurant our family enjoyed and we're extremely impressed that the ultra high quality is exactly where it is for takeout as it was when we last dined in there!!

I came here a few times in the past, and I had always liked it. Unfortunately, this changed last night. My partner and I had a very bad experience: the whole evening we were accompanied by food flies and bad service. Since there are a lot of places in Hamilton with great food, I am not coming back to this place again.

Sharon Jimmo

Great food and service

Trula Timpane

The service was wonderful! Sadly, I felt the dumplings and the salmon crudo were both so heavily sauced with vinegar I could hardly taste their natural goodness. Perhaps it was an off night? Great ambiance.

The burger is a really well done burger. It is a little small for me, but it is delicious

10/10 service. The ribs were amazing - highly recommend. The sauce was fantastic and made in the restaurant. Great vibe. Cozy atmosphere.

Randolf Turner

We are regulars at Berkeley North, it’s easily the best restaurant in Hamilton. Fresh, local, quality ingredients, thoughtfully prepared and presented. Menu changes seasonally, and we’re always stoked to try their new offerings. Cocktails are just as passionately prepared as their food. Very consistent, and the service is always exceptional. Good atmosphere, comfortable seating and minimal, but trendy interior design. We pretty much order everything on the menu each visit. At the moment, the teriyaki eggplant, and tuna crudo are the standouts. Will keep coming back, and highly recommend to those with a discerning palette, looking for high quality ingredients.

Mark Woodley

First time at this restaurant for lunch today and it was quite good. Both of us tried the BLT on sourdough bread which was flavourful and just right in portion size, greasy and they should bring finger bowls with lemon. Also I opted to have the featured soup, Vegan Tomato. Leaning heavy on the tomato today for my selections. The soup was very hot and I had to alternate between my sandwich and the soup but it only cooled off slightly. Definitely hot and tasty too. The lunch menu is straight forward and uncomplicated making it easy to choose your items. Maybe unremarkable deems it to be added to the list of 100 Top Canadian Restaurants, or we're like the British and prefer to talk about the weather. Friendly staff, clean, uncluttered room with the ubiquitous open kitchen. Nice surroundings. Wish Hamilton would hurry up and complete the transformation in this neighbourhood. Plenty of pay parking lots or metered street parking available. Hope to dine here again. $70 with wine/2

Ellisa Flynn

My boyfriend and I had the most delicious meal here for my birthday this week. We ordered 2 appetizers and a large main plus a bottle of wine. We only spent 100 dollars I was shocked for the quality of food I was presented, how reasonable the price was. I will 100% be coming back here because I’m already dreaming of the mushroom pasta.

Diane Martin

My fav in Hamilton right now. Excellent food and drinks. Service is exactly as service should be. This is a place to go when you want to savour each bite! Enjoy!

Sheri M

Great food!

Mackenzie Collins

Great drinks, food was alright.

David Li

The food was hit and miss. The mushroom dumplings and teriyaki eggplant were okay. The shrimp tempura was a bit better and the steak with fries were excellent. Felt reasonably full ordering 4 dishes for two people. Nice atmosphere and friendly service.

Meghan Hogan

My partner and I had an amazing dinner at Berkley North last week. The food was fresh, flavourful and inventive and the service was fantastic. Plus, the decor and atmosphere in restaurant row was an added bonus. Would recommend to anyone looking for a menu that's out of the ordinary and executed perfectly!

Blown away. Berkeley North did not fail to deliver! The atmosphere in this restaurant was calm and cool. The servers were extremely friendly, and personable. When it came to the food, the taste did not disappoint one bit! Everything was …

8 of us celebrated a birthday and the experience was wonderful. The server was warm, knowledgeable and a real professional. The food was amazing. Listening to the server describe the menu items demonstrates the care and passion invested in each selectuon..The tastes, textures and presentation all come together beautifully. The ambience is upscale casual and relaxed. I have visited twice and both times have been impressed. Hope to return again!

Brenda Ewens

Wasn't too sure about the menu when we arrived. The staff was amazingly friendly and helpful.

Berkeley North deserves a 12 out of 5 star rating! Hands down one of the overall best dining experiences I've ever had. Recently, I met a beautiful young lady from an online dating app in Hamilton for dinner and the atmosphere from the moment we stepped in the front door until we left was remarkable. Our server was Grace and her attitude, demeanor and sincerity was just amazing. She was accommodating {your secret is safe with us ;-) }, patient and very knowledgeable in regards to the menu. The food was cooked perfectly and the presentation was Master Chef worthy. Without question, the coffee was fantastic (even my date noticed my facial expression change with my first sip) AND it comes with an actual sand timer -- So cool!! Also, they do something so very clever, (yet obvious) that I've never seen before when they bring the bill. Just overall impressed with this establishment. Ask for Grace! She's a perfect balance of attentive and fun! Berkeley North set the tone for our evening! This was the perfect beginning to probably the best first date I've ever had!

First time at Berkeley North and I am sorry I waited so long. Not only was the food stunningly fresh and packed with flavour, but the service was warm and knowledgeable about their food. We will definitely be back.

Evan Miholics

Just had a lovely lunch at this restaurant. The welcome and service was impeccable, they have a great cocktail, beer and wine selection. Portions are small but the food is absolutely delicious and I in no way felt cheated (really appreciated the detailed presentation as well). There is a very laid back yet professional atmosphere in this restaurant that is quite comforting. Im excited to try the dinner menu!

The atmosphere was great, and the service was remarkable. Im giving 5 stars because it's exactly what you would expect from the type of restaurant. Small, but detailed portions. Don't expect to go into the restaurant without getting at least 2 items per person or youll be disappointed and its probably not the type of restaurant for you. I highly recommend the avocado salad and mushroom dumplings. The staff seemed to genuinely enjoy their time there, they were knowledgeable and very kind.

Sung Cho

good food but portions are extremely small. A small bowl of pasta is like 17 bucks wth. If you wanna walk out feeling full feel free to spend at least 130$

Denise O'Hanian

Wow! This place is a gem! We've been dining along King William before Theatre Aquarius for 20 years and we're thrilled that a restaurant like this has come along. The food was innovative and nicely prepared...the green beans were to die for. The service was excellent! The price for the quality of food was quite reasonable. I especially loved that they're hooked up to open table and I can book online. We'll definitely be back!

Terry Cator

Excellent place to dine downtown, with delicious food! It is a bit small, and there may be a bit of a wait during busy times, but well worth it. Small menu, but very tasty options, and very friendly staff. Its bright, modern and clean. Excellent find in the city!

Daniel La Fleur

Awesome and unique drinks and fantastic food.

Alla Obikhod

Had a wonderful birthday dinner! Service was great and food was fantastic! Highly recommend tuna plate, it was so fresh and delicious!! Thank you Berkley North for great experience! P.S half priced bottle of wine on Wednesdays is just a cherry on the cake!

don scott

We were first time diners today for Sunday brunch. The place is contemporary and cozy, the menu is different - interesting. I had eggs -Benedict with cheese and spinach and my wife had veg tacos, both outstanding. The drinks are creative and tasted really good...All these at very reasonable price. The service was great - friendly and attentive. We are definitely coming back for more!

Mushroom Dumplings: so amazing! Surprisingly, these were my dads favourites out of all we got, and he doesn't even like mushrooms!Grilled Chicken Skewers: these were my personal favourites. The chicken was cooked perfectly and was extremely flavourful. I loved the sauces they had on it, they were overpowering but worked very well with the flavours.

Sulmaz Moradkhani

Good food. Good service. Very small portions of food that left us hungry. Ordering pizza now after dinner at Berkley North.

Hema Patel

Food was delicious. Service was friendly. Delightfully surprised

Thomas Kostelnik

Great ambience! Lamb spring rolls were nice and crunchy but very salty. Dumplings wrappers were too thick and mushroom filling was under seasoned (perhaps just compared to the spring rolls). At the price point I wouldn’t recommend

J “Best-dale rse” K

Everything is deep-fried. And mediocre

Katie Martinez

The whole family -- 14 of us spanning three generations -- went there for a celebratory dinner. We ordered the food ahead of time. I wouldn't say the food was good -- I'd say it was fantastic. We had about 5 different appetizers, and each one was better than the previous one. The asparagus salad was magnificent. One of the main courses was steak. It was so tender we didn't need steak knives. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only downside is that the wines are a bit on the pricey side, but all in all, the meal was well worth the price.

Paola Morrone

We wwnt to Berkelwy during Hamilton Fringe and found the most outstanding service! Friendly, warm and knowledgeable. The food was divine, different and just delicious!

Ashley Woods

My experience at Berkeley North was amazing. The service, atmosphere and food where phonominal. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who want to try something different. I'd also recommend the fresh cheese???? , avocado salad???? and teriyaki eggplant ????. Definitely my new fav go to spot and oh it was very very resonable.

Paul Manchisi

Friendly staff/nice decor/excellent comfort food/good vegan options...glad we found it.

Andrée-Anne P

Great discovery. Cozy place for evening with friends. We loved the concept of sharing plates. Food tasted delicious !! Staff took time to explained every dish when bringing them, sweet attention.

Cameron West

What an experience. We had a tasting menu and the flavours were absolutely out of this world. They even brought out a few items they were working on that aren't currently on their menu. The service was great and it was nice to see that the beer they had on tap wasn't your regular moose water. They branched out from doing only vegetarian dishes, but don't kid yourself, they made something as simple as beans taste like you wouldn't believe. Great location, a great feeling to the restaurant, it really makes it feel like you are welcomed. I would say a few other draft options from some hard hitting local breweries, but I would stay for the food over the beer any day.

Rudi

Food is amazing and the service was impeccable! Highly recommend

Gillian VG

Had the sharing menu and it was beyond delicious. The cheese is delicious, the steak melts in your mouth. Can't say anything bad about this place.

Jesse Dougan

so damn good. perfect french toast, great service, great atmosphere.

Marcus Callaghan

Great food in shareable portions; the sour dough toast is a must try. However, the best part of Berkeley North is its friendly staff. Among the best service of any restaurant I've ever been to.

Did a surprise birthday brunch, staff was super friendly, acccomdating and the food was well done with great portion sizes. Will return for dinner!

Lian Cavarzan

Absolutely amazing and unparalleled service! Food quality is outstanding. Creativity in ingredients and combinations of flavours. Perfect portion size: not too much, not too little. Visited for brunch: so fantastic! Will be visiting for dinner soon! Call ahead for food allergies/sensitivities and they will accommodate. Frequently update the menu to reflect availability of seasonal ingredients. Owners go out of their way to give customers the best dining experience in the city. It is on the "must visit again and again" list!

Anna-Marie Evans

Upscale place.

Inventive tasty mostly vegetarian options. If you're looking for meat.. the cod sandwich (your only option) is delicious.

Mark Deluca

Why does the steak taste so nasty? Mushroom dumpling great, enjoyed the eggplant, crispy beef is meh, but the steak!? Made me gag..would return to try other foods

Richard Davey

Lots of excellent reviews here, but the evening we went we found the food underwhelming and over-priced. The duck pate was fine, but not remarkable. The albacore was okay, but I've had better. The schnitzel was decidedly overcooked. All the portions were small, which is odd since they claim they are meant to be shared. Overall a fairly unsatisfying meal. They do have a good drink selection and the service is excellent.

Bonnie C

They had a fixed menu when I came here with some friends, not much choice, but every thing they served was delicious. The atmosphere in the restaurant was cozy and chic, the server was attentive and nice

Rudi Spallacci

Always good food and service.

Keston R

Cary Watson

We had the falafel, dumplings, potato and cheese & sourdough bread dishes, as well as cheesecake and chocolate cake for desert. The quality of the various dishes ranged from great to OMG. Seriously, the best meal we've had since visiting NYC. Great service, and my only complaint is that I didn't let my wife talk me into ordering more dishes. Next time.

James Kim

Pros: Good/great taste. Fresh ingredients. House-made sour dough. Cons: sour dough comes out BURNT as default. ( ask them for lightly cooked ones. WAY BETTER) Bit pricey but fair given the atmosphere and the type of restaurant that it is.

Service was excellent, but food is mediocre at best. Menu has potential, but the cooking isn’t right. Until then, head next-door to the French where they have control of their menu and it’s executed well.

Christopher Redmond

Great service and amazing food.

Ryan Mitchell

Great service and fantastic dishes.

Bennie Houghton

Food was amazing! Very nice and attentive staff! Highly recommend the Berkeley! Great atmosphere! Most definitely coming back. Perfect spot for a date night. The food is incredible, and the menu is well curated. Good wine selection and fabulous cocktails! staff was overally friendly.plan on going again and eating this time

Renee Brown

We had the tasting menu, $75 for two people, five courses. Generous portions and very tasty. Some of the menu descriptions don’t do the actual meal a service, cheese toast is actually homemade Burrata-like cheese on homemade grilled toast! Wonderful. The only slight disappointment was the main meal, a rib steak with French fries. The steak was VERY thin and not the highest cut. The fries were wonderful. Our dessert, homemade bourbon ice cream with toasted pecans and Carmel sauce finished the evening off on a high note.

S. Brett Nishizaki

Food was tasty. However, you'll have to hit another place before you get home to be full!

My wife and I have been here multiple times and loved our experience each and every time. The food is great and the servers really know the menu well and were able to suggest some great options. Love me new meat selection.
