About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for creative cocktails
Rapscallion & Co. is a mischievous and vibrant part
of Hamilton’s restaurant scene, dedicated to offering the city’s culinary
connoisseurs a full nose-to-tail experience. We offer a regularly changing,
meaty and creative menu in a laid-back setting. Our skilled and
passionate chefs do it all, whether it’s curing, salting, boning, stuffing,
wrapping, charring, braising, or just leaving the meat raw.
Above all, we love to prepare food that pushes boundaries and pulls you outside of your comfort zone — just a little bit. We get tremendous joy out of food and offer items that you are unlikely to find another local restaurants. While we love meat more than some people love their firstborn, we are always happy to accommodate those who don’t. Vegetarians and vegans are always welcome, options available by request.

    I’ve been meaning to check rapscallion for quite a while now… and I’m so glad I finally got to try it. The atmosphere was so great, one of the coolest interiors in a restaurant I’ve seen in Hamilton. Fantastic vibe and great choice of music. The service was nothing short of exceptional. Our server was excellent, she got us everything we needed with a smile on her face and was super easy to talk to. All the other staff checked on us as well and everyone that did was awesome, great attitude and great service…. Finally… the food, the presentation was exquisite, and the taste of each dish was phenomenal. Mouth watering. I will 100% be coming back, I’ll be telling my friends to try it out too. Well done rapscallion, and thank you for an incredible dining experience.

    Amazing food, one of my favourite dining experiences I’ve had. Love the ambiance. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone asking. Side note: I believe one of my guests notified the restaurant that it was my birthday and to offer a cake. Unfortunately, this did not happen. Very thankful for the card though! I will be returning for a 5th time :)

    While our overall dining experience was pleasant, the food itself was somewhat underwhelming. However, we would absolutely return for the calamari and the espresso martini—just be sure to request freshly brewed espresso, as the standard preparation uses instant. The calamari was beautifully seasoned with just the right amount of heat, complemented by delicious pickled peppers and sauces. Given such a strong start, we had high expectations for the courses that followed, but they fell a bit short. The filet was cooked to perfection but lacked depth of flavor, and the addition of potato chips on the sliced steak felt unnecessary. My partner’s shrimp and lobster campanelle pasta was enjoyable but did not leave a lasting impression. That said, the service was truly exceptional. Morgan, our server, was outstanding, and the seamless teamwork among the staff elevated the experience. While the food had its highs and lows, the impeccable service and standout appetizers ensure we will return.

    Only thing I’d say is the non alcoholic cocktails were lacking, some more originality/non soda based cocktails would be appreciated for people who are not drinking alcohol
