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.

    If you want to mail to punctuate your special occasion, choose Berkeley North. It's always been wonderful, starting with the ambience. But this past 2nd of December it was amazing and I rarely use that word. I rarely choose the tasting menu but I'm so glad I did. It was perfectly planned and prepared. Beautifully plated and presented. They have added cauliflower to the menu which tasted amazing and the gnocchi has had a seasonal change and every bite of it was utterly delicious. Portion size was perfect. The service for stellar Well done BN. I'll keep returning. And send my friends.

    Our first time there for an impromptu Holiday staff celebration for 4 ppl. Everything was absolutely amazing. Our server was phenomenal, the room temperature was comfortable (can be cool in some restaurants), the ambiant music was at a comfortable level while not distracting or interupting our conversation, the seating was comfy, the decor is classy, sophisticated and elegant, and the food was scrumptious. The wine list had a good mix of wines from various regions, and the delicious mocktail list enabled our co-op student to feel included in our toast & celebration. The Standard really made our experience today. Kudos all around!
