About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Charming
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.

    Rapscallion has been consistently really good. We’ve been coming for over 10 years and it never disappoints. The whipped feta and chicken liver brûlée are some of our favorite dishes.

    We dined here for the first time for our anniversary and had a great time! Our waitress brought us a glass of champagne in celebration, which was a sweet touch! The Tuesday date night special is a great deal. I will be dreaming about the whipped feta until I can come back and have it again.

    Pleasant surprise! Brunch was delicious! We have a vegan in the party with acid reflux so could not eat acidic foods and Chef made a good salad for him. I wished there were more vegan and seafood options but the food is really good given the limited options we had on the menu. The restaurant is GORGEOUS. Patio did not match the elegance of the interior. We will definitely be back for the dinner menu!

    The food on the new menu was all very flavourful. It was our first time on the patio and the atmosphere was nice. The only issue issue was I suspect understaffed for a Saturday night. It took a very long time in between courses of food and water was not refilled in a timely manner. Tuna, fry bed and broccoli were standouts. The lamb belly was poor value as there was very little lamb for a sharing dish.
    Rapscallion & Co.Responded on June 17, 2025
    Hi Natalie, Thank you for joining us and giving our new menu a try. We are of course glad to hear that you enjoyed the new tastes; but sorry to hear of the service misses. Hopefully we can have you back and leave you with a better impression.
