    What a gem! The Brothers Grimm Bistro blew us away with its exceptional food and outstandingly friendly service. Every dish was cooked to perfection fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented. You can tell the chefs truly care about their craft. The atmosphere is cozy and full of character, and the staff made us feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm -a rare find these days! It's not just a meal here; it's an experience. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone who loves great food and top-notch hospitality.

    What an amazing experience we had at this lovely restaurant. Located in downtown Hamilton on the lower level it was a pleasant surprise to see how nice it was. The menu is incredible as is the service and ambiance. We will definitely be back!

    Quaint bistro decorated like a wine cellar. Our waitress was very knowledgeable , friendly and loved her job. The menu was unique with game meat as features. The different food choices were done to perfection. I would recommend this restaurant to friends and family.

    Returned to Brothers Grimm with my wife for a pre-theatre dinner. Good food and nice wines. Excellent and friendly service. The newly installed panels with Grimm's tales are a nice touch.

    Great experience. The wild game pie was a bit salty. The prices were a little high for what you get, but it was still an excellent experience. Good for a date night. The service is great if you want an evening to chat & linger.

    Went for a birthday dinner here and everything was amazing. It was our first visit but I’ve heard about how good this place was from friends. It did not disappoint, service was great (Thank you Faith!), the food was amazing, everything tasted so fresh and they have a very well put together and cohesive menu. The overall experience was wonderful, they even placed a little decoration on the table since they knew it was a birthday celebration and offer a free dessert for special occasions. We heard they might be stopping dinner services which is such a shame as everything was so delicious. Amazing job to everyone involved in making this place run!
