So sad to see this Allentown icon closing at the end of November. The space is as nice as you'll find and the food was wonderful. The barbequed pork chop with tempura-dipped sweet potato fries was awesome on our last visit. Waitress was knowledgeable and chatty. Great experience!

We were never greeted by any staff. We stood there for a solid 5 minutes and not one person acknowledged us so we left. We were from out of town and picked this place. We will never go back.

We both started with salads which were incredible. I had the beet salad and my hubby had the shaved Brussels sprout salad. The. We had the curry chicken and scallops. These salads and entrees sounded really good and interesting on the menu, and typically places underwhelm with the final product, well the Hamilton did NOT. Everything was outstanding. We would recommend to friends and family and definitely will be back. Excellent restaurant choice!!!!

Really nice place - very cool atmosphere. Really difficult to park but in fairness I don't know the area and it was raining and difficult to navigate the one-way streets. The kitchen messed up our burgers - My THK burger was supposed to be medium and was well done. My sister's BYO burger was medium and was supposed to be well done. They were able to correct my sisters. If you're in downtown Allentown or know that area this place is worth checking out.
