Looking for traditional and outstanding tastes which unfold Greece on your plate, we are looking forward to welcome you at Apllada Greek Fusion Restaurant. We couldn’t bring the sun or the Aegean sea with us, but we brought some of the smells and taste. Join us for an unforgettable experience!
Probably the best Greek food we've had in Hamilton! Very satisfied with the price, the very tasty food and portions, the wonderful service, and jazzy dim lit atmosphere. Wonderful date night with my wife. Would definitely recommend!
I ordered 6 dishes from here and recieved this tiny bag. Obviously scammed by driver somehow but when I called and very upset but calm spending 133 dollars and receiving this one meal. They chose to throw hands up and not help figure out who driver was or how they could help at all just screamed at me on phone about how it wasn't there problem! Shocked what a celebratory dinner gone wrong...thanks edit to add the one star was based on customer service...screaming at a customer and not being understanding of the frustration...and how could I review food when all I recieved was chicken on a stick and rice...terrible customer service
Really amazing experience and feeling like a tour to Greece. Peinirli with lamb is very crunch outside but so soft and delicious inside with well-cooked lamb. The sandwiches are pocket full of meat. Highly recommend and will definitely come back.
My husband and I tried this spot for date night. When I saw it on UberEats I knew it deserved an in-person visit. This is some of the best food we’ve ever had in Hamilton. We wanted to try so much more but our stomachs are only so big. On the way home we found ourselves already planning our return. Everything tasted so fresh and the quality was phenomenal. The presentation was lovely, and the atmosphere was intimate, cosy, and friendly. We felt as though they really cared about whether or not we enjoyed our experience. I went to sleep thinking about the bechamel sauce in the moussaka, so waking up to delicious leftovers was a perfect weekend treat.
I posted a review on here a few days ago, leaving 3 stars because my complaint was about finding raw chicken in my chicken souvlaki pita (which has been raised from $12.50 on their website to $16 in restaurant…) and I know that sometimes things may not always cook perfectly… I have eaten here many times and have deeply enjoyed the food before. I posted a picture on here of the raw chicken, fleshy and still covered in marinade- without biting into the piece it looked different than the cooked chicken in my partners sandwich, and noted that with the price change this was very disappointing. I’m reposting on here now because of the absolute lack of customer service in their response to my review, and I will likely not be going back…. I left a 20% tip as well because I actually felt bad about asking if the prices changed and making the waitress feel awkward… This is very disappointing.
Very authentic Greek food with excellent service in an intimate setting. Our first time there and won’t be our last. Having just returned from Greece (Crete in particular), we really appreciated the authenticity. Not a secret judging by the many take-out orders we saw leave while we were dining there. The relaxing jazz music was a plus but may not be for everyone.
This place is the real deal. The level of quality, the sincerity of service and the heart and soul of food… Real people serving real food. Bravo! Note: The baklava is beyond your wildest expectation. Highly recommend this place.
The best Greek restaurant in Hamilton. Every dish was well seasoned and tasty. The waitress helped us chose the best options and we were not disappointed, the moussaka was amazing, the spicy dip with pita - well flavoured. The Greek salad was fresh and tasty. The baklava was the best we have ever had. Full of nuts, not too sweet and served warm. It paired really well with our Greek coffees. We have to go back- they was so much more to try. From watching the steady stream of food delivery people- this place is no secret.
The service and food were equally fantastic! Reasonable prices for a generous portion size, and we both had a phenomenal time. :)
This place was delicious!
Wonderful modern take on Greek cuisine. Owner and staff are very friendly.
I had dinner there with my daughter last night after hearing great reviews. It was amazing! The food did not disappointed even though it was so hyped. Fabulous meal and fabulous service. We will definitely be back
Worst place that i ever visited.
Very bad service. They don t know how to treat customers. Food quality is not that good which I expected. Feel disrespected there. Don t recommend to go
Nice food, nice service, nice drinks, i really enjoy this place.
Hi Apllada , I dont know much about this restaurant as ive only eaten the food twice. Both were very good (my opinion) The first time i had some of my sons order which was Pizza Boat it was pretty darn good BUT my fav now after only 2 orders is the Chicken Skepasti wow what a sandwich with all the fixings i love If i have it my way and my son goes out to pick up i would like this sandwich once a week. It is the best pita ive ever tasted. Ive never been to the restaurant to rate the atmosphere but regardless the stars are earned .
Ordered various greek dishes and each one was more delicious than the last. Highly recommend. Very, very long wait for delivery, but it was worth it.
Good food and nice staff whether youre taking out or dining in. Try the souvlaki pita, come back for the skepaste Food : 5/5
I took my friend out for dinner after he visited Greece, he said the food was better than the one he has in Greece
Read the reviews and had to try this place! The best in the city. Great food & service!
We had an absolutely lovely dinner here! The atmosphere is cozy, and the food is so delicious - beautifully cooked, fresh, very authentic. Its clear that the owner has a vision and is personally involved in making it a reality :) We definitely over-ordered between the share plates and entrees, but everything was delicious the next day too. Vegetarian options: Many dishes are vegetarian and can be made vegan on request
Our first time at this special place. Excellent food fresh, flavourful, presented well and delicious. We loved this gem of a place and will definitely be back!
The food here is amazing!! Definitely try the mousaka!! 5+ stars! You gotta eat here!!!
Very deceiving! This place is so cute inside. Ordered pork souvlaki and chicken souvlaki dinners and both were amazing! The Greek salad is top notch!!
OUTSTANDING! This little gem should be on everyones must-try list! An intimate restaurant experience with a variety of traditional menu options made with the freshest ingredients that will not disappoint!
The most delicious Greek food for miles. Charming atmosphere and very friendly service. Love this place.
Excellent food and service. A nice small family restaurant. The owner was friendly and happy to greet and meet customers. We will be back, lots more to taste.
The food is dynamite every time I come here. Had salad and lamb skewer this time and it was delicious and fresh and perfectly cooked!
We went to Apllada with our son, who is attending McMaster University, when we came for a visit. He highly recommended Apllada and after our dinner there, we highly recommend it too! The food was fresh and delicious. The waitress was super nice and accommodating, especially with allergies.We really enjoyed everything about Apllada. If we lived in or near Hamilton, we would definitely come here all the time. Dietary restrictions: Gluten and dairy free options are available
Its possibly one of the best restaurants in the city
Fantastic small restaurant. Happened to accidentally find this place after a mishap with a reservation made at another place. We were very glad ultimately about the mishap. The server/owner was so warm and hospitable. The food was top notch! Recommend this place 100%..
My brothers and I took our grandmother here a couple months ago and loved it. The atmosphere was cozy and interesting, the food was delicious and the husband and wife who served and cooked our meals were wonderful. Incredibly nice, talkative and pleasant. 100% coming back the next chance I get.
My friend and I came for dinner and were so impressed with the intimate atmosphere, delicious drinks, fresh food, and helpful service. Our meals were delicious and freshly-made... we could tell they were prepared with care. While we arent vegan, all dishes can be prepared vegan which is really great. Fully recommended a visit!!
Agree with the others here, this is by far the best and most authentic Greek in Hamilton. It s consistently delicious, great portions, and reasonable prices. You can t go wrong with any salad or the chicken pita.
Apllada hosted a birthday party for our Aunt, we were able to rent the entire restaurant, the staff and owners were amazing and went above and beyond in every way to make the birthday party so great. Food was phenomenal! Would highly recommend, thank you again for a great evening!
The beast food the best service this restaurant has remained me Greece
The food was amazing here, I ll definitely take my family here again!
Tried this place for the first time today, and so happy to have found an amazing authentic Greek restaurant in Hamilton! Got the souvlaki pita and they must make the pita in house it was so good. Very full of chicken / toppings and the tzatziki was so delicious. Will be back to dine in! 10/10
Amazing food! Great portion sizes and they also do take out so we took left over home. Staff were lovely. You wont regret visiting!
This place has the BEST Greek food in the city - no contest. I love Greek food and was blown away by the authentic flavours and freshness. The service is also friendly and the space is charming. We had tzatziki and the spicy feta dip which were outstanding. The pita bread was very fresh and perfect with the dips. We also had the ceviche (very good) and chicken souvlaki which was tender and delicious. I had the Greek beef meatballs which were perfectly seasoned and cooked. The mousaka that my son ordered was the best mousaka I ve ever had. We will be back for sure. We were too full for dessert but will get it next time .the portions are very generous. I highly recommend this restaurant - it s a real gem.
wonderful unobtrusive Greece restaurant. everyone chooses. the preparation took 30 minutes, but the owner said that they prepare everything fresh. the lady who served us was great. she advised us on the selection and recommended. the food was amazing. Ive probably never had better fries in my life. price normal. The only thing I would complain about is the air. I definitely recommend visiting. good atmosphere.
Quaint, family-run place, authentic delicious food with vegan options, excellent service
We did take out and will definitely be returning. I d like to dine in sometime.
Our favourite neighborhood restaurant. Whether we order for pickup or eat in the service is friendly and the food delicious every time. I definitely recommend eating in, the restaurant is cheery, clean and comfortable. Theres a euro feel to everything that is very romantic and it feels like you are being invited for dinner by the family. At this point we have tried most of the menu, one of my favourites for takeout is the skepasti, and for eating in start off with the ceviche and then the Greek lasagna is to die for, with the house wine. Theres no wrong choices, everything is fantastic. Previous review: Exciting to have a family owned restaurant back in our neighbourhood. Last one I remember was Zum Litzer by Sanford. The food has a satisfying depth of flavour, the recipes are a blend of traditional Greek cuisine and some lighter french influences which pair well together. We ordered the beef and pork souvlaki ($5 a skewer which is very reasonable). The portion was large, the meat was lean, well seasoned and very moist. It also came with some slices of baguette accompanying each portion. Based on another review we ordered the dolmades which are grape leaves stuffed with rice and this was served with a yogurt lemon sauce. They were very small, but tasted delicious and we will be trying them again. We finished with the horiatiki salad which was a medley of tomatoes, olives, feta, cucumber, onions, capers, and a tangy olive oil dressing. Both of us found it was very strong, we may not try it again but it did go well with the other dishes. I have a spice intolerance and found that the only thing that affected me was the chili pepper topping on the baguette pieces that accompanied each dish but the dolmades. As we did pickup I didnt get pictures of the inside, but it is cozy, sunny and very clean with a blend of Greek and classical design elements. There were cheery daffodils on the tables, a beautiful wooden bar and check out counter, happy plants cleaning the air and the smell was like walking into a European womans kitchen when she is cooking for her family.
I usually never leave reviews but this place Deffenetly deserves it, just found them today and Deffenetly the best place in hamilton for well priced authentic delicious and nostalgic smelling food , great atmosphere great people. definitely recommend giving it a try. Thankyou for what you do !
Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful food, the mousaka was out of this worl! Michaela took amazing care of us! Owners are so lovely. Highly recommend
Great food and atmosphere and the owners are Wonderful
A hidden gem. Had Moussaka and tried a few different apps with friends. Everything was really delicious and cooked just right. Sangria to drink was quite nice too. Generous portions but I managed to have a beigniet for dessert and it was satisfying without being too sweet.
M768XZlisaf (1 review) What a hidden gem. If you want real Greek food with high quality ingredients this is your place. This family run business blew my mind. Simon (the son) took care of us and went above and beyond to explain what was popular and the most sought after dishes were. We shared pita bread, eggplant salad, tzatziki, horiatiki and their signature sandwich chicken skepasti. You can taste the love in all of the food and it certainly is a curated Greek experience. Prices are beyond reasonable. What a hit. Can t recommend enough.
The restaurant is nice and cozy. The food is delicious. The hosts are super hospitable and friendly. Absolute 5 stars. Small advice to improve ventilation.- but still 5 stars for sure
Friendly staff and owners, the food is excellent! Opa! Our favourite cozy little Greek restaurant!
SO GOOD. Best Greek food I ve ever had, and generous portions!!! Vegetarian options: Highly recommend the baguette, tzatziki and the salads!!! Good for vegans too. Option to sub feta to vegan feta!
Absolutely love this place! I just found it a few months ago and is the best and most authentic Greek food I have had! I recently tried their Strawberry Greek Mojito which was recommended by the staff, and it was absolutely delicious. The food is excellent and I love the atmosphere, its like having a slice of Greece right in the heart of our town, making every visit feel like a mini getaway to the Mediterranean. The owner and the staff provide amazing service and are always friendly and make you feel right at home! I would recommend this place to anyone who its looking for a delicious, authentic Greek meal! Cant wait to go back!
Absolutely fantastic. My daughter and I ordered takeout from here recently and the food was so good. Everything, from presentation, portion size to taste was excellent. Highly recommend! I àm lookimg forward to a inhouse dining experience soon!
This meal was absolutely delicious . ABSOLUTELY GET THE SPANIKOPITA!
Had an early dinner, fast friendly service, delicious souvlaki dinner, with boyardi for an appetizer. Highly recommend
Fantastic, authentic, flavorful greek cuisine. The owners are wonderful people, too! A charming hidden gem
I placed an order for this restaurant on Uber Eats which is something I rarely use but couldn t go get my food for pick up at the time. As I m waiting for my order to arrive I notice the price keeps increasing? So I view my new receipt and see the restaurant has added on fees to my order and it s only labeled as an adjustment fee . I call the restaurant to ask why they would increase my total without my consent and they said I had added on some extra items to one of the dishes that cost extra however the Uber app had glitched and told me they were free/included. When I ordered this specific dish it prompted me to select two items from a list, some of which had prices next to them, some of which were free. I selected two free items. I told them if they cost extra money I no longer want them to which the girl on the phone said she can remove them from my order but I would have to speak to Uber for a refund. So I asked how can you increase my total without my consent but be unable to remove the extra fees you ve added? Then she said well it s only an extra $5 or so what s the big deal? The big deal is that s not what I agreed to pay when I placed this order and you re charging me fees I didn t agree to which with taxes brought my total to $10 more than what I agreed to pay. The girl became flustered and passed the phone to the owner who was incredibly rude and unhelpful, acting as if the app and her restaurant s error was my fault, stating the fact her employees added on extra fees to my receipt and that her prices are inaccurate represented on the app wasn t her issue and it was the third party apps problem. I then said I d just cancel the order to which she replied ok go do that and hung up on me then they cancelled my order before I could. Food looks tasty but after this I will never be a customer.
The server Mica was very nice, the food was very tasty and made with love, you feel you are spending you money in the right place.
A friend of mine recommended this place to me, I just wanna say that you can definitely tell how much love and passion they all put to the food and drinks. I had ceviche with the pizza boat and the greek mojito!! let me tell you it was AMAZING, everyone has to come and try it!!!! The owner and staff were lovely and attentive. Thank you so much, Ill be back soon.
I think you may have just added pastitsio to the menu or recently to the takeout. That corner slice sent me to the moon thank you.
Loved the food as they used quality ingredients. The lamb slow cook was perfect with middle being pink and souvlaki was well done side. Truffle frites and Horiatiki salad are highly recommended!
Such a cute place and delicious food! Will definitely be coming back again.
Boyfriend & I came here for the first time. Was surprised how small the restaurant was, but the food was fantastic. I can t remember what my boyfriend had, but I had the Lamb Souvlaki in a Pita . We ll definitely be eating there again! Would highly recommend
We ve searched for yia yia kitchen and have now happily found it. Amazing mouth watering food pleasantly served as you would find in an authentic Taverna in Greece
We have ordered a few times from this restaurant and they never disappoint. Great authentic Greek food, going to have to dine in next time.
Amazing service and food and the server there is the best thanks again for everything
The food is good, portion is big. My Greek friend said the taste is better than most Greek restaurants in Toronto. Definitely worth to come back again.
This is truly a great restaurant. Right up front, service was very good. We were seated promptly, made comfortable, and given menus. All the food we ordered was delicious: moussaka, green salad, and a pork sandwich. Portions were generous and the prices reasonable. We have been here several times and the food has always been excellent.
Great little restaurant for local authentic Greek bites and drinks. The Peinirli & the Shrimp Saganaki were both great dishes. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is intimate and inviting.
The food is absolutely phenomenal. The first time I tried it, I was blown away with how good it was. Since then, Ive tried to go once a month. The quality of the ingredients and the flavours are perfection. Staff are always lovely and very friendly. They make you feel like youre stepping into Yayas kitchen.
I ordered take out here last week for a group of friends and we all really enjoyed it. I was impressed with the number of vegetarian/vegan options available. Typically these options are pretty limited at Greek restaurants. The Revithada (chick pea stew) was really good, even better the next day. Their breads were also very fresh. The tzatziki and tirokafteri tasted authentic. Their marinated olives were really nice as well. I cant speak to any of the meat options because we didnt have any. I didnt love the smashed potatoes but that was a personal preference. They use a high quality feta which I appreciate. I admit I have a bit of a bias because I grew up eating Greek food, but in the event my dad isnt cooking for me, I would come back here for sure!
Tried Apllada last evening 5 Stars for sure BEST GREEK FOOD EVER!!! Fresh, authentic, homemade, flavourful and a dining experience! The restaurant was cozy and welcoming. The owners - (one, our chef who is certainly a master of Greek cuisine) and the other (our host who was welcoming and informative) Highly recommended! Will definitely be back
We just ordered from Uber and I was so excited to try the Mousakka as it was my very favourite dish I tried in Greece. The mousakkas bechamel was nice but the meat lacked seasoning or flavour and the composition wasn t what I was expecting. I am not a fan of the fries at the bottom or in the pita as they just get soggy. The portion was huge though and it came with a very nice salad. The thing that was most disappointing was that they packed the mousakka on-top the salad warming it up and having the cheese melt. The lamb in the pita was very fatty. There was pieces in there he couldn t chew. So he couldn t eat his meal at all and had the doughnuts for dinner which he said were very good at least.
What an incredible meal made with caring hands. My family and I enjoyed ourselves there this past Saturday. Wonderful atmosphere. Excellent staff. Food so tasty and filling. Thanks so much to everyone there for a great time.
First visit at Apllada was a very memorable one. Not only was our waiter Simon was amazing and a gracious host but the food was mouth watering and the portions are very generous. This is an incredible greek dining experience. I highly recommend that you visit this charming restaurant on King st. With the amazing food it s sure to be a hot spot. I ve now had my second taste of greek fusion. Equally as delicious as the first and the portions were very generous. Lovethe Apllada.
The food gets better every time we order it . Its so MHMHM . Periodt.
Great server, very nice owner! First time coming here and the food was fantastic! We will come back for sure! Thank you!
Just had their food for the first time via Ubereats- amazing!! Got the lamb souvlaki dinner with beignets- was so fresh and flavourful. And the portion/value was surprisingly good. I can t wait to try everything on the menu!
Amazing little spot!! Cozy and cute inside and the FOOD! Fresh and authentic, delicious. Best Greek food in Hamilton right now hands down! We will absolutely be back, and soon!
What a hidden gem this place is. My partner and I were looking for a delicious Greek place in Hamilton and went based on the positive reviews and we were not disappointed! The small restaurant is cozy and the staff and owner are delightful. The food is so flavourful, full of soul, it felt like we were having dinner at a Greek Mumma s house. We finished our dinner off with a Greek coffee and was one of the best coffees we d had in a long time. We will definitely be back.
I am an independent restaurant supporter and I cannot emphasize the high quality of the food, service, as well as the very generous servings at Apllada. Not only was everything I received incredibly flavorful, but the portions were above what you would get in a chain restaurant. I find that many times a lot of places I go out to eat lose quality in their food, but when you come to places like this, theres an extra little bit of TLC. You can tell that the food was cooked with love. I highly highly recommend this restaurant as the staff made my experience very memorable. The food speaks for itself. I look forward to coming back again soon. My recommendation is the Spetsofai if you like spicy sausage. This dish packs in so much flavour. This place has only been around for a year so people who are foodies like me, start spreading the word!! Vegetarian options: They do have some vegan options so make sure to ask your server Dietary restrictions: Street parking can be a real pain, but the food makes it worthwhile.
Amazing food, service and reasonable prices. Blew us away with the taste, and better than high-end Greek restaurants in Toronto.
Some of the best Greek food Ive had in a long time. Everything was so flavourful and cooked perfectly! Highly recommend.
Simply amazing my new favourite restaurant. The food was incredible, the service was friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming. That food was made with love! Thank you for a wonderful experience, my family and I will be back.
Amazing food and great service. Best Greek food I ve had outside of Greece!
This food is the bomb.. very authentic, very fresh and such a beautiful atmosphere. I have been twice now and you can tell the food is cooked with high quality ingredients. Definitely a gem in the area !
In my honest opinion, Apllada is the best restaurant in Hamilton! A quaint little restaurant off King Street with a great vibe, amazing staff, and food that is absolutely out of this world. You need to try Apllada!!!
Awesome food! Delicious and well prepared. They handled my substitution without issue (frys dont belong in sandwiches imho). We had souvlaki (lamb and chicken), Horiatiki and Spanakopita. The portions were generous and the prices very reasonable. The leftover salad and pie were just as tasty for lunch the next day. Its a small place with a few tables (most for 2) and a comfortable bistro vibe, perfect for date night. It is in a bit of a sketchy block, so lock the car and dont leave valuables in plain site. I only gave four stars because one of my lamb souvlaki pieces was cartilage and bone and inedible. Mistakes happen, but it was a bummer because it was so tasty and you only get so many in the sandwich. Hopefully I can bump that up with my next visit. Still highly recommended!
Amazing time at Apllada! The staff are helpful and friendly. Food was incredible. Would definitely recommend it to others. There is limited seating (maybe seating for 20 max inside), so if youre going during a busy period, make sure you make a reservation. I dont normally take food photos, but I figured Id share these bad ones. Cheers :) Vegetarian options: A few vegetable options, ability to remove dairy for vegan.
What a gem of a restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious! Had the moussaka and a large Greek salad. Moussaka came on a bed of fries..different and very fresh. Greek salad was the best Greek salad I ever had. Highly recommended!
If you want to eat safe food stay away. Theres a huge rat in the back named Christina. She fired me unjustly and is currently trying to lie about the time worked there to avoid paying severance. So Im blowing the whistle. Ive seen her handling raw produce, spices, and unprepared foods immediately after handling raw chicken and without washing her hands. She frequently ignores proper food Storage rules (keeping raw meat on the same shelf as prepared items). Many of the home made items on the menu are bought. Tomato sauce? Directly out of a jar. Dolmades? Canned. Oh and both if the owners SMOKE CIGARETTES EVERYWHERE in the restaurant, from the dining room to the kitchen
Family restaurant, great food, great service, cozy
My husband and I popped in here for dinner. We werent sure what to expect but we were pleasantly surprised. Its a nice, quiet space with fantastic service. We tried 3 dishes wed never heard of before and were blown away. We are not Greek, but I feel confident in saying that this was very well done, traditional greek food. The owner came out and chatted with us for a bit about the food, which was very nice. They have wine, beer and soon to be cocktails. The dishes we shared were tirokafteri (the most amazing hot pepper dip I have ever tried, served with pita). The shrimp saganaki (fantastic!!!) and the chicken skepasti, which is essentially a greek pita made into a hot sandwich. It was honestly to die for. Were so happy we found this little gem!
I just ordered the bruschetta from here, and its delicious!!! Very cute and cozy, will be here to eat in person soon. Thank you again :)
I ordered takeout chicken pita and baklava. Both were excellent. Baklava was like a meal unto itself. I didn t sit down but the atmosphere was great in the dining room. Be a great date-night spot.
Got take out from this restaurant for dinner - everything we ordered was excellent (super flavourful and fresh). The portion sizes were also extremely generous. Absolutely would recommend
We discovered this hidden gem when we were in the city, and we decided to look for a nice greek restaurant through Google reviews. The food was really tasty. The portions were big compared to price. The staff was friendly. The place was cozy but not for big groups. This is definitely not our last time. We highly recommend this restaurant.
I m very happy that Apllada arrived in the neighbourhood. I used to live in Greektown in Toronto, and was underwhelmed by the other Greek options in Hamilton, until I tried Apllada. The souvlaki, potatoes and garlic bread are my go-to order. The freshness of the food and ingredients is very apparent with every bite. I highly recommend Apllada.
I m in no way exaggerating when I say that this is the best restaurant in Hamilton, the food is incredibly fresh and flavorful, everything I ve eaten here has been absolutely delicious. The portions are huge and it s so good that even when you re stuffed, it s hard to stop.
We ordered take out, and everything we ordered was delicious, fresh, and made with love! I saw a few other reviewers say the food here is better than greek places in Toronto, and I agree. We bought many dishes for our family to share, and everyone loved everything, (and pleasing everyone is hard!). Thank you for a wonderful dinner, we will definitely eat here many more times to come.
Amazing food! Tastes home made and good portion sizes. Cant wait to try more dishes from here. Thanks!
Really tasty and authentic Greek food with very friendly service! The atmosphere is also very cozy, very cute place even I just have a glass of wine to down at the end of the day. Ill definitely be back again. Ekhfarishto!
Best greek food, amazing wine, service was impeccable. Prices are overly reasonable, id pay double for that dinner all over again *chefs kiss*
Beautiful little restaurant first time there food and service was amazing. Would recommend and definitely a must to go back.
Ordered in. Loved every single dish!
Absolutely amazing! Food is 5 stars! Highly recommended.
Best traditional Greek in the Hammer. Greek cuisine connesseur here. 3rd time was great again. Could use more staff, with time.
Amazing food. 10/10 food no corners cut. Loved every bite. The souvlaki wrap for something on the go or souvlaki dinner to dine in amazing both of them.
Moussaka was excellent, wait staff was prompt and friendly
Wow that dinner was sooo good. This restaurant is super underrated, a hidden gem in Hamilton. Loved the eggplant dip ($7!!!) and chicken skepasti. Delicious Greek food, super friendly service we will most definitely be back!
Everyone needs to try this place. It is absolutely amazing. The flavours of the dishes are amazing. My partner and I tried 3 dishes and everyone one of them we were pleasantly surprised with how amazing everything was.
We love this place. Food is always amazing, and the service is great too. Hands down the best Greek restaurant in Hamilton.
The eggplant dish was amazing and slightly sweet
One of the best Greek restaurants Ive ever had the privilege of dining at in my life. And hands down the best in Hamilton! Huge portions, beyond authentic in every aspect, service is amazing, (thanks Michaela) and the presentation!...WOOW. :)
Honestly, a total hidden gem in downtown Hamilton. We chose this place on a whim, and did not regret it. The service to start was spectacular. We couldn t be seated right away, so we wondered a few doors down to a bar for a drink while we waited. The owner actually searched for us outside as the table came up a bit earlier than expected. The atmosphere is perfect for couples, or friends. Dark, but modern. The menu is big, and we need to go back so we can continue to eat our way through it. The food was amazing, tasty, and everything is made from scratch (as far as we were told). The drink selection is large, and has an option for every pallet. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this diamond in the rough.
Love love love this place - I need to make this a more regular stop - everything we ve had is so great
Came across this spot randomly while in the area and the service and quality is one of the best! Will be continuing to return here!
Came here with the family twice now and its definitely going to become a tradition love this place food, service and atmosphere is exquisite and very personal
Great food, good value, friendly staff, will definitely return.
Fantastic experience and very reasonably priced. It was quite evident upon my first bite that there was a lot of care given to the menu. Everything was clearly made in house and their choice of ingredients were fantastic. Textures were lovely, the meats were juicy, the vegetables had a bite, and flavours were delicious. Definitely, need to come back to try more of the menu!
Great food. Quaint atmosphere. Good service
Amazing food and great atmosphere! Family run restaurant serving delicious authentic Greek food. I highly recommend the Grill Pita with Tirokafteri and Taramosalata spreads!
I just have to rave about this place!!! Just ordered for the first time and it was AMAZING.This is the best greek+ food I have had in a long time!!! The little dolmades are nestled in this incredible lemony yogurt sauce and I could eat so many of them, the cheese phyllo pie (Tiropita) is a delight - crispy and cheesy and yes, the pork skewers are SO juicy and flavourful, and everything else was just so great - bread, pita, tzatziki... I immediately wanted to make a review because I was just too impressed, everything exceeded my expectation. I would STRONGLY recommend giving them a try if you like any of these things!
Grabbed some take out on Saturday. Everything was delicious! It is easily to tell these are family recipes. Beautiful restaurant too. Can t wait to eat inside. We will definitely be regulars.
Cute new spot on King. Friendly service. The chicken souvlaki was excellent!
Food was great. Great atmosphere. Owner super nice. Will be back!!!
Good is amazing
Tried Apllada for the first time tonight. We sampled almost everything on the menu and loved every dish. The smashed potatoes, marousalata salad, and the French beignets were some of the highlights. Happy to have authentic Greek fusion in the neighbourhood.
Couldnt be happier with the food. Huge portions, great value and above all, great flavours.
Kind people, great atmosphere. Try dipping your pita bread in the yogurt that comes with the dolmades.
Wonderful food. Perfectly done. Staff is friendly and genuine. A very nice addition to Hamilton.
Cute little place to eat or take out, Best food I ve had in a long time. Genuinely passionate people and it shows in the food. I will be coming back 10/10
Had a great experience dining in at Apllada. It s a family run spot and you can tell the owners take pride in their food and service - our server was very attentive and everything was incredibly fresh and flavourful. So many great fusion items to try, and generous portions too! If you like something really spicy make sure to get the ceviche, and the pastitso was a hit as well. Looking forward to visiting again.
Great souvlaki
Bi far the best greek food weve had and the best pita..
Finally authentic Greek food in hamilton. Seriously delicious, homemade, fresh and the staff are perfect. Quite small inside I would recommend calling ahead if u have a larger group of people. I will be back for sure!! Opa!
Just picked order from this restaurant. Good and friendly people.
Beautiful restaurant, felt really clean and decorated with authentic decor. We ordered the pork & chicken souvlaki, Greek salad, smashed potatoes, and iced frappes. The Greek salad was delicious, especially loved the addition of capers and fresh baguette. The pork souvlaki was the favourite but both were really well seasoned and tasty. We had the French beignets to go and enjoyed them thoroughly! We ll be returning for sure!
Great new Greek restaurant in the city. Ill definitely be back.
Great atmosphere! Extremely friendly & helpful cashier / server. Owners are very friendly and their aim to deliver food with nothing but natural and high quality ingredients is right up my alley. I went on a Saturday afternoon, it was empty but spent my time relaxed in the little hole in the wall. I had the Greek latte, Greek fries and chicken pita, excited to try some more!
WOW!!! This place will be my go to spot from here on. Delicious food, not too busy and great staff.
Amazing authentic little Greek resto. Their olives are to die for and Im addicted now. Cutest little staff- hi Simon! And really quiet personable atmosphere. Cant go wrong with whatever you order tbh. And the prices could make me cry a sweet ol river (in a good way)
Probably one of the worst food experiences in Hamilton.....owners posting their own reviews say it all. Disgusting.
I was very excited to see a new food option come to my neighbourhood in a part of town where there is not much to eat within walking distance. I was pleased when I saw that my entrée came with a traditional Greek salad which I became so entranced by that I forgot about my entrée. I ordered the Pastitsio which I ve never had. While it was good it was just a little bit underseasoned. Overall, the flavours are simplistic yet delicious. I highly recommend this place. I m looking forward to trying more of their menu.
Been there twice to dine in and had fantastic experiences both times. The food is top notch and you can tell the owners are passionate about serving delicious, authentic Greek cuisine. Really happy to find this gem in my neighborhood in an area otherwise lacking in high quality food.
Delicious food! Meat was tender, a lot of the food, dips and dressings all house made. Owner and staff very informative, checking in on our table and answered any questions we had. Only been opened a short time, wishing them well.
If you want authentic Greek food than this is the place to go. The staff was nice and the ambiance was beautiful. Will be going back for sure!
Wow! We were thrilled when this family-run restaurant opened two blocks from our home! And we were not disappointed! The food was absolutely delicious. The service was very kind and attentive. The restaurant is small and tastefully decorated, exactly as it should be! We highly recommend it and we are looking forward to going again!
Got takeout, very delicious!
I ordered Lamb fricassée from uber eat and I received chicken. They should have cancelled my order instead of giving me chicken. This is my first time ordering at this store and would be my last. The price I pay is for Lamb fricassée much pricey than that chicken I received.
First time customer- preordered a day ahead by popping in and was given some suggestions for our fathers day spread for 12 people. When I arrived today food was waiting and ready at the exact time we picked and the waiter helped me carry it to the car. Very lovely note of thanks on the bag too. I wish I had taken pictures because the food was beautifully presented AND delicious! We tried it all- pork and chicken souvlaki, lamb fricassé, stuffed peppers, smashed potatoes, greek fries, watermelon salad, greek salad, baguettes, baklava. It was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend and we will be back!!!!
Fantastic food and good people. Great family run place,been multiple times with the mrs. in short time its been open.
Simply incredible. Beautiful spot, friendly hosts, talented chefs, creative menu. Horiatiki salad could be a meal on its own (the definitive authentic Greek salad with all the flavours of summer). Biftekia were savoury and perfect, and the revithada (a hearty chickpea dish, more substantial than a soup) is a rare find in restaurants. Simple but flavourful desserts - the decidedly not Greek beignets were mind-blowing. Greek coffee and mountain tea round out a truly wonderful dining experience. I plan on making myself a regular here - do not miss out on one of Hamiltons newest and most impressive gems!!
The food was unbelievably fresh and delicious. The pitas are freshly made as you order. Waiter was very kind and helpful. Would recommend coming here to anyone who loves fresh authentic Greek cuisine.
Amazing new place ! So Charming and the food is outstanding! I love everything on the menu especially the dolades!!!
I can t get the food into my mouth fast enough! Got the beftekia holy smokes!! So delicious and flavorful! The lemon-yogurt sauce that comes with-chef s kiss! Also ordered the cheese pie so good!! Can t wait to eat my way through the menu!
Lovely little place. The food was great. My wife and I had several shareables and appetizers to share. The food was fresh, flavourful and all clearly homemade. The staff were the best bit though. Our server Jane was so nice and courteous. Attentive and friendly and a pleasure to talk to. The owner came over and chatted with us too. Very friendly and passionate about what he does. We will return!
We have a new gem in the city. Great food and we will definitely be back for more. The bruschetta was the best I have ever had.
Hands-down the best Geek food I ve ever had. If you re looking for Greek, look no further. You won t be disappointed!!! Authentic, absolutely delicious, fresh, great prices and amazing customer service. Five stars!
Best Greek food I ve had. The quality of the food is amazing, flavour is great. Think we have had most items on the menu and everything is great. When dining in, the service is great!
Tried this place a little over a month ago and it is absolutely amazing. What a hidden gem!! Our new favorite; my children love it, too. Amazing food, great prices and incredibly nice owners and staff. Highly recommend!! We will be regulars from now on. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant, the food, and the staff. Dining in is an incredible experience, but their takeout options are amazing, too. Theres something for everyone and the quality, quantity, and care put into the food is what makes this place beyond five stars. Well done!
I had the souvlaki dinner and tzatziki. The meat was tender, juicy and flavourful. Everything was delicious. Will be ordering from here again.
Everything was really good (two chicken pitas, watermelon salad, Greek fries, and binettes), but honestly the fries were surprisingly good.
Great place! The food was really fresh and the portions are generous. The service is also very friendly. We ll be back for sure!
Very good food! Awesome service.
The food is AMAZING! This is our second time here and it s definitely in our top 3 favourite restaurants. The staff is incredibly nice as well. Would recommend!
Amazing customer service and quality of food. Best Greek Food I ever had. Will forsure come again. Highly recommended whenever in Hamilton.
Fabulous! Large portions and delicious. Friendly staff. Highly recommend this small independent restaurant.
Excellent food and outstanding service. Portions are generous.
really kind service
Excellent!
Had an amazing experience. Tasteful atmosphere, great authentic Greek food, home cooked, terrific couple who own it and were happy to chat, very friendly and thoughtful host/server. It s the kind of place I look forward to getting back to. I want to try more menu items and enjoy the atmosphere some more.
Everything was delicious. Had the feel of a taverna in Greece. Very cozy and friendly vibe.
Honestly the food was incredible. Super low key spot, but high end quality. You can tell they put in the effort and care to make a great meal. 100% recommended without hesitation. Go!
Saved our marriage. It was fantastic! Cant wait to order everything, eventually. I just ended the most miserable monthly blood cycle [as usual] & didnt want to cook. To my horror, I found out I ordered 30 minutes before closing. I work at a restaurant & hate it when people do that. I was surprised my UberEats driver showed up with my food at all. Thank you for everything! The promos from the app & Apllada are so generous but I would reorder/revisit regardless!
It was alright. No lamb on the menu which is why I went for Greek.
Cant say enough good things about this place. Fantastic food with huge portions. Friendly owners and great staff. Lovely atmosphere and great local spot. Well definitely be back! Food
The food was delicious.
One of the best Greek restaurants we ve ever tried. Everything is so fresh, so delicious and the owners are so kind. This will definitely be in our rotation of restaurants!
The food is well seasoned and plentiful. Owner is very hospitable. Serve staff is delightful. Wonderful dining experience! Vegetarian options: There are bean dishes on menu as well as assorted salad options. Parking: Metered parking on both sides of street. There are a number of side streets that may provide a parking option.
Amazing food and an amazing team working there. Love the idea of Greek fusion, i. e. a fresh baked French baguette with your food in greek style. We bumped into this place by accident and left as friends.
So great such a great location I loved the food, and it had such a nice vibe to it. Many shops around aswell which makes it optimal while just strolling around. There wasnt too long of a wait at all, Id say its a little overpriced but its worth it for the quality food.
Amazing restaurant! The owners, Christina and Savus were so incredibly friendly and nice and we felt so at home there! The food is to die for and we can t say enough about it, you will have to try for yourself! Yummy ! We definitely will be back but I am already trying to decide what to try next time! Soooo good!
So glad we popped in. Amazing quality food, generous portions and the owners are absolutely incredible. You MUST add a dip and pita to your meal. Cannot wait to go back.
Phenomenal fresh food! One of my new favourite dining locations in Hamilton! Keep up the great, fresh food & ill be back weekly :)
