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 would not return. The food was great but the portion sizes for the price was very poor. I had the filet mignon and it was only two small slices of meat, some mashed potatoes and 8 small slices of carrots, I was by no means full and it cost $45. We had the feta app but only got 5 pieces of small bread with it and needed to get more, which cost more. The decorations were wonderful for Christmas, the atmosphere was loud and energetic and the staff were nice. However for the amount of food served and the price paid I would not come back. Definitely other places in Hamilton with better value.

    Thank you for joining us and taking the time to leave an honest review, Kristin. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the ambiance, service and great food. We are sorry to hear that the perception of value wasn't there for you and have been discussing this internally. Hopefully we can see you back at another occasion to leave you with a better impression.

    Nice ambience. The full menu was touted as tapas however, the entrées were too small to share in reality. Food tasted great. Drinks very diluted. Price above average for what you get.

    Thank you for visiting and taking the time to leave an honest review, Mark. While we are thrilled that you enjoyed the quality of our food, we do wish that your overall experience was better. We will be reaching out privately to hopefully continue the conversation.
