Caro in Hamilton

Went after an event on Ottawa St. Great food, atmosphere and service. Portions were of a great size and were very filling. Appreciated the french press coffee! Will definitely be back for brunch and a pizza! Parking: No parking provided but there is a municipal lot right beside it and there is on-street paid parking too.

Mushroom pizza is my favourite, always a nice place for catching up and lunch.

I loved my experience, service was great.My friend and I came for lunch. I ordered gluten free pizza with pepperoni no mozzarella light sauce. I have been so sick since my lunch. I am celiac I hope this review makes the cook more careful..cross contamination is real for celiac.

As much as I enjoy Caro , dining in , I just had take out and really can t say the same , which is why I rarely do take out . I didn t find the quality to be near the same , other than the pizza . The Caesar salad was mediocre for the price and amount , and my all time favourite, tiramisu , was in a coffee cup , which was creamy but runny . I WILL be back though , but dine in for sure .

Great little restaurant, great food, good natured servers

Good food. Pizza is very tasty

My wife and I love going to Caro! The staff are amazing and the food is fantastic ! Its our regular date spot!

LOVED the food! Amazing service! 100% recommend!

Great place for lunch. The gluten free pizza is excellent. Service is friendly and fast. Highly recommend. Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free options!

scrumptious pizza i loveeee the mushroom one, also tried the tiramisu and it was so creamy and delicious!!!

Warning: The gluten-free pizza here sucks! It s like tasteless cardboard, and is burnt. Back in the day this place had great gf pizza but it s definitely gone down hill with the new recipe.

I was disappointed by the food. Its not as good as it once was.

We came here for weekend brunch with kids, the food was delicious except it was a bit too salty for my taste. However, my husband really enjoyed his fried chicken and waffle. The waitress was very knowledgeable and attentive and provided a customer service that went above and beyond.

My husband and I used to be Caro regulars (including multiple Uber orders) and we ve noticed in the past year the orders weren t consistent in taste, size, ingredients. But we kept ordering because we liked the people, we liked the restaurant and the food was pretty good overall. Their tiramisu is legit the best I ve had anywhere! Today we had the day off and went for brunch on the patio. We were the only ones there We were seated quickly and asked for our drink orders. We ordered one hot latte and one iced. It took over 10 minutes to get our drinks and one was wrong. We both ordered the eggs benny which was pretty good but smaller portions/higher price and the home fries were under-seasoned. This is long winded but it s just not as good as it once was.

Weve been to Caro several times. Their food has always impressed. Good variety on the menu and friendly service. Give it a try!

Caro never disappoints. Ive been to both locations, and the service and food are great.

Ive been here quite a few times over the years, and generally, I like it, but its as if things are not consistent. The drinks and pizzas are consistent, as well as the Caro bread. But the pastas, lasagna, etc are sufficient and well balanced one visit, and different another. I now feel like its only worth it to get pizza personally, which is unfortunate because when they first opened I loved all the 6 menu options I tried. Service is pretty good though; they do get busy, but they are normally good for checking in. The atmosphere is either calm and quiet early on, to moderate during the afternoons and bustling in the evening. It would be amazing with a live band Dietary restrictions: They accommodated the IBS dietary restrictions I presented, and made my caro bread without garlic & I was able to swap something out on my pizza and replace it to make it suitable for me.

Food and service was excellent. I had 25 people attend for a birthday party. Each of them raved about the food.

Server was amazing. But got very sick from their gluten free pizza

EDITED 2024: Ive been back recently, and the experience was much different. Dining in was wonderful. Fantastic atmosphere inside, great service, all our food was delicious. Great place for a more north american style italian food, and their takes on dishes and flavour combos were balanced and well-thought out. Fair prices, given the location and quality. So glad I returned! One star off atmosphere just because its at a very busy corner, but they make the most of it. Original review (2021): We ordered the pappardelle, spaghetti and nodini for a lockdown birthday dinner. Everything was overcooked (overcooked noodles are so disappointing to eat), and everything lacked flavour and salt. The nodini were dry and overly firm. Caro came highly recommended so Im not sure if it was an off night as I know businesses are struggling right now. Willing to give it another chance but definitely a disappointing birthday dinner.

Kid friendly too!

I came from Mississauga and my gf from Fonthill for lunch. Great halfway spot. The Chicken Parm sandwich with house salad was the best ever!! We also stuffed ourselves with their amazing pepperoni pizza. Thank you for making our visit tremendous!!! Happy August to all Food

Such a wonderful place for a date night! We love their mushroom pizza and arugula salad. They also have the best tiramisu ever!

The food was delicious! I had the Croque Mister which was delicious, A had avocado toast which she loved as well (not my thing so I have nothing to report). The littles all had waffles which they loved (and so did we). The coffee was also very good (both French press and latte)!

We go a handful of times each year since he opened Caro and have Never had a bad Meal! Parking: Shared lot with Dairy Queen Kid-friendliness: Yes kid friendly we bring our kids with us sometimes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes it is

Good real food

A great place to enjoy excellent Italian food

My third visit and probably more and more- This place will never leave you disappointed. Location, service, food, ambience everything is AWWsome and perfect. Tried: Penne All Vodka, Garganelli Carbonara , Margarita (vegetarian friendly- you can request to customize it). Dont forget Caro bread and Tiramisu its Gem. Food

Food was amazing. Staff was good. The waitress we had it was her first day so there were some hiccups. If she was trying hard.

The caro bread is FANTASTIC. My server was sweet, and the vibe was just right here. Highly recommend trying this place out as every bite was worth it. Food

One of my favourite Italian restaurants in the city.

Had the mushroom pizza, reminds me the food i ate when I was in Italy, fresh n tasty

Food was cold. Sent it back to be heated. It came back just as cold if not colder. We were the second table in the place. So it wasn t that it was busy!

Very friendly staff and amazing and filling Italian food!

We stumbled across this restaurant by accident while shopping in the area. What a surprise. The food was delicious. We ordered a pizza/wine special. Thin crust, very light, sauce, cheese and pepperoni were all flavourful. We also shared a tiramisu, very tasty . Prices are very reasonable for what you get. We cannot wait to go back and try some of their pasta dishes which looked and smelled delicious. Very casual atmosphere. I would definitely recommend giving Caro a try.

Pizza is unreal here and the service was excellent

Great chill place to dine. I always love it here no matter who Im with.

The food was absolutely delicious! My friend and I had Red Wine, Corn Chowder, Beet Salad, Short ribs, Tiramisu, and Mango Gelato. Well be back! Food

Lunch of a one-day trip to Hamilton. Love the Breakfast Pizza and Avocado Toast!

Service and food are awesome

Hardest chairs we have ever sat on. Suggest you bring your own cushions.

Great place for benny with salmon at Sunday morning Great music and interior. Super fast service and great cocktails ! Food : 5/5

We got the chicken parm sandwich, mushroom pizza, an old-fashioned drink along with a spritz, and Tiramisu. The chicken sandwich was dry and could have used a little more seasoning. The mushroom pizza was great, quite filling and flavourful. The drinks were pretty good, too, but the Tiramisu was the highlight. It was a bit sweeter than others Ive had, but its still a good shareable unless you have a sweet tooth. Parking is paid next door, you can also park on the street (paid).

I was very happy to discover this on a last minute trip. Despite there being only one server who was also acting as bartender, we had excellent service. I dont know how she did it!

Caro on Ottawa continues to be fantastic. I had an error with a pickup order and they corrected it with speed and grace. Great service and food.

Service and food is amazing! Although a cozy place its pretty basic as far as atmosphere.

Delicious Italian food; amazing mixology cocktails... nice atmosphere and an overall cozy joint!

Margarita pizza was horrible....

We had the chicken parm and the truffle ricotta gnocchi with shrimp. The chicken parm could have fed 3 of us (it had 2 big pieces of chicken) and was as tasty as the gnocchi and shrimp!

Soup: soup of the day Pasta: Rigatoni Alla Vodka, Short Rib Pappardelle Pizza: Mushroom Drinks: Espresso Martini, Mocktail similar to pina colada

Kid friendly. They always welcome us warmly. The brunch food is fantastic! Bright and spacious yet still has a cozy feel. The avocado toast and the chicken & waffles (especially the waffles) are personal favourites. Though I have good things to say about the benny as well.

I was ok

The best gluten free pizza anywhere. All of the staff is fantastic. Pasta was out of this world...highly recommend

Best spaghetti & meatball in hamilton!!!

We had the Pizza special, Polenta fries and calamari and it was delicious! And the customer service provided by Evalina was amazing. Caro never disappoints!

Had the pizza. Was good. Polenta fries, awesome. Friendly atmosphere. No rushing.

Pizza was fantastic. Pasta was bland. We ordered the peach caprese appetizer and not a single peach was to be found. It also never said salad on the menu so we were surprised by the pile of arugula. Wouldve loved to send it back but the servers were all over the place and barely acknowledged our existence.

Was looking for a quick brunch or lunch place before we head out for Niagara on the lake. And little did I know that the quick bite would end up 2hr long in this cute restaurant cafe. Loved the brunch menu! We ordered Avocado Toast, Capresse sandwich and Tiramisu pancakes. And everything was delicious. Tables favourite was the tiramisu pancakes. Highly recommend this spot if you are in the area. Also we ordered the seasonal rotating tap which was from a local Hamilton brewery and it just paired perfectly with our food. Will definitely stop by for tiramisu pancakes if I m in the area again.

Best authentic Italian restaurant in Hamilton! Finally I found a good one where the food is the closest to the one made in Italy, I see comments here from customers complaining about the food, I guess you are too much into fast food garbage and you dunno how to appreciate the real deal! As a 3rd Roman generation who moved here in 1999 I can tell most Italians I wanna be are mangis and they have no clue how Italian food actually taste and look so , please continue to eat your EAST SIDE MARIO FOOD AS THEY DON t APPRECIATE THE REAL ONES THAT S WHY THERE ARE SO MANY OBESE PEOPLE AND THATS WHY TIMMIS AND MCDIES MAKE THEIR FORTUNE HERE PS IM ITALIAN TO THE BONE AND I KNOW HOW TO COOK ITALIAN FOOD( not from small town that s a different kind of food ) FROM BIG CITIES AND MOST ITALIANS HERE ARE FROM SMALL TOWN OR SOUTH ITALY WHERE ACTUALLY THEIR FOOD IS MORE TOWARDS ARABS AND FRENCH CUISINE ! IF YOU DONT KNOW OUR HISTORY , LEAVE IT LIKE THAT

Nice little place for lunch today. Staff were great and so was lunch! Will be back.

Went in for brunch. As always, a friendly greeting and excellent service. This was our first visit to the James St. Restaurant. Fantastic omelette and even better home fries. Warning: bring an appetite, generous portions. Re: atmosphere : there were 2 separate parties of young women who may want to have their hearing checked, with all the shouting, if there was any music playing, we couldnt hear it. The smaller party had to shout to be heard over the larger tabless voices. Only complaint. Ottawa and Main, always excellent service and delicious servings everytime I have been here.

Chicken parm was tasty for me. My wife had the gluten free pizza and she loved it. Friendly staff and Parking lot next door. We will be back!

Great food. The waffles were really good.

Been here a couple times, nice cozy little spot with friendly service. The pizza and pasta are delicious! I had the Rigatoni a la Vodka last time which was great, and the Aglio E Olio this time. It was simple, but good.

Great food, great portions, great price. We will be back again

Great food but took a lot of time to even get my order in. The staff did make it up by offering an appetizer on the house.

Amazing staff, very friendly and helpful. Lots of patience helping me find a vegan option.

Amazing place!!!

First time there, and we were very pleased with the whole experience. Wife had one of their pizza and I had the chicken parm. Both were as close to perfect as you can get.

Favourite spot for date night. The food and service is always ON POINT.

Pricey but great food, service is always impeccable Vegetarian options: A few veggie options Food : 5/5 |

Awesome

Its been delicious every time Ive gone! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pizza crust as an option! Food : 5/5 |

I ve been to fine restaurants I appreciate and value great food and when I expect something good from a highly rated restaurant I expect it to be delicious and properly done nonetheless I went and ordered chicken Parmesan it came out super dry no flavour the crumbs were burnt the pasta it was tasteless the sauce was a bit off and when I seen the chef he was a total mess covered in debris I lost my appetite I took it to go and threw it in the garbage don t let those reviews and good pictures say otherwise I right honest food reviews I m a food critic I only leave reviews if the restaurant is a disappointment and this was a major disappointment I will not be attending here again.

Very disappointed, pizza was not as good as expected as overcooked. As well, even more disappointed that no kids menu existed what so ever for a pizza place. Pretty easy to make smaller simple cheese or pepperoni pizzas with dough, at a lower cost than an adult sized meal pizza. If I m going to over pay for pizza it should make you want to go back, this place did not.

Bianca, the host and Cory the owner did a great job looking after the customers even though it was busy.

Vegetarian options: A great amount of vegan options. Dietary restrictions: Plenty of gluten-free and vegan options Parking: Parking on main Street behind the dq. Plenty of space

My partner and I are frequent visitors to Caro! We love the food and drinks. They re awesome with food substitutions and restrictions. The staff are very nice!

Went on Valentines Day. Food was very slow to come out. We got two pasta dishes. Both lacking flavour. I got the riccotta gnocchi and there was barely anything in the bowl. Drinks were ok. Disappointing really. Not sure if they had an off night or what. Mid. The rigatoni alla vodka with shrimp had zero flavour.

The food was unreal!!! Amazing food and service. Definitely going back soon!

A diamond in the ruff! I am so happy I decided to try this restaurant. Cocktails to die for Great food, amazing presentation and great service good ambiance!

Food was not up to par.

Took time to translate menu and find dietary items I avoid. Not a restaurant for a fussy eater! Underwhelmed with food quality overall. After adjustments, some dishes were reasonable like the tuna. Dietary restrictions: Not many. Pork crackling sprinkled on fish; grasshoppers; and seafood tough to detect without a detailed explanation by the hosts.

Been to the Caro on James St. a bunch of times and this was my first time at this location. Had the chicken parm and the Crown Point sour and both were to awesome. Usually go to Caro for the pizza but their pasta dishes are a must try.

Food tasted delicious and fresh. Beet salad has a nice hunk of goat cheese. Yummy. Pleasing space.

Delighted we found this eatery on King and Ottawa in Hamilton... The menu is small, but the dishes were mighty delicious We ( 5 of us) had the Beef Carpaccio, Pepperoni Pizza, Arugala salad, Rigatoni with Shrimp, Cacia de peppe, Gnocchi with Mushrooms, and s Spaghetti with meatball.... Bottle of Red and cocktails. Finished with amazing choice of Gelato ... Caro is very reasonable and we paid 67.00 pp ( tip included) and we had a relaxed few hours in great atmosphere. Check out @carorestaueant You will not be disappointed

The calamari is absolutely delicious here Its a quiet, and cute little restaurant. Food : 5/5

Delicious food

Held my bridal shower here. The food was incredible and the staff was great to work with. All my guests loved it and thought it was awesome to have a bridal shower at a trendy restaurant with appetizers, main, dessert and amazing cocktails.

So as soon as we walked in we were hit with the scent of something burning, then when we sat down we were too close to the other people, and the menu was the size of a coaster, not alot to choose from, I drdered the pasta with shrimp and you could not find the shrimp, my friend ordered the short rib with pasta, and there were no short ribs, the meat was ground up , so i wont be going back there, also the front entrance needs to look more inviting, it looks like youre going into someones cramped downstairs apt, no thanks,

Best place in town for gluten free pizza!

Delicious brunch, nice atmosphere! We usually dont have to wait long, if it all, which is a very nice bonus.

A family favourite that never disappoints.

This place had great food. I was actually very pleasantly surprised. Everything that was served was great, including the coffee.

Ive gone to Caro twice now and each time has been amazing. The first time I loved it, there was only a small complaint, but it wasnt bad enough that I didnt want to go again. The food is so good, the staff is also very friendly. I do feel that it could be cleaner but it couldve been a lot worse. Im also someone who cant stomach dairy, their vegan cheese is perfect. Ive tried many and this kind isnt overly chewy and its not sticky at all! Cant wait to go back. Their fauxhitos are great too Vegetarian options: There are lots of vegetarian options here, tons of pasta or pizzas Dietary restrictions: Im lactose intolerant and they were very accommodating, the food was great.

Honestly used to love this place. Now the service has gone down incredibly and the flavours just dont seem the same.

Very good all the way around. Excellent cocktails and wood fired pizzas

Had a delicious salad, yummy pasta, overall very tasty. A nice fun spot for Italian.

Very cute little restaurant to go to! Service was amazing and so was the food. My friend ordered the three little pigs pizza and I got the Omar pizza. I wasn t sure how the Omar was going to taste because of the corn purée that s on it, but it was one of the best tasting pizzas I ve ever had!! My friend really enjoyed her pizza as well. Highly recommend coming here if you haven t yet!

Fresh pasta - Friendly and fast service Gnocci had too much pepper but otherwise good

The menu looked nice but we walked out because neither of the two waitresses seemed to care we were there, despite being one of only three tables. We had fun watching the table next to us receive and eat their entire meal. They seemed happy.

Drinks and food was all delicious!

Best calamari I ve ever had!

Vegetarian options: Love love love Caro . Their food is delicious. Food

Amazing food and service every time. Great gluten free and vegan options. I absolutely love the gluten free, vegan cheese pizza. Very friendly and helpful staff. Generous portions and great atmosphere.

I came with my wife and 2 little ones. They gave us great service!!! The servers were very attentive and nice. They mistakenly gave us different food, but they quickly fixed the issue. Nice atmosphere. Great place to bring your friends or loved ones.

Amazing food and drink we loved here definitely will come back again mushroom pizza and shrimp past!

We had a wonderful lunch before a lovely hike in Kings Forest. We opted for the margarita pizza, the mushroom pizza, and a couple of side salads for a bit of greens! The food was delicious with interesting flavors and quality ingredients. The server was friendly, helpful and attentive. I would absolutely go back and try a few other items on the menu.

Had a really lovely experience here, and the staff made me feel so welcome. Its a simple menu of apps, pizza, and pasta, and I really enjoyed my meal. The waitress was truly kind, and the restaurant was very clean. I would definitely go back! Also, the garlic aoili with the Margherita Pizza was to die for

Delicious food. Great service. I am pretty sure the meatballs on a creamy polenta is my favourite. Along with your pizzas.

Good. Vegetarian options: Yes. Parking: Cheap paid parking close to location.

Good pasta, great pizza

We has the spaghetti and meatballs. It was absolutely fantastic!! Definitely recommend!

Great service! Carbonara and the sourdough berry were fantastic!

Really tasty pizzas and pasta. A bit pricey. Very busy place. Cant wait to see how the new green wall is going to turn out

They do not make reservations but i had emailed the email address on their website and was directed to a manager. He said they would make an exception as my family was coming from Brampton. Unfortunately once we got there the waitress said there was no reservation and they could not help us because we obviously did not make a reservation. I had to pull up my email and prove we did have one. The manager was from their other location and clearly had not communicated with this location about my reservation. Luckily a different worker from this location understood our frustration and was able to seat my family with 15 minutes. She was nice enough to give us a free appetizer to show her sympathy towards the situation that was not her fault. The food was absolutely delicious and i will most likely return as the food was worth it. We ordered 6 different main meals and had 3 appetizers and not one thing dissapointed. Thank you to the worker who worked through the other managers mistake and allowed my birthday dinner to be a happy one after the difficult situation.

Food was amazing. Love the Polenta chips lol

A++++

Great eats

The staff were very attentive and friendly, my friends and I all got salads to start and they were lack luster very disappointed. I got the crowne point which was a very nice drink and strength as good as well. They have GLUTEN FREE pizza dough #blessed. It tastes good as well. My friend got pasta and said it was very good. Another friend got the calamari and said it was just ok. We were on the patio which was nice just main street got really loud and Rowdy at some points but meh what can you do. Pricing wasnt too bad. The dress code was more lax then I expected. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options

Amazing! So so good. Couldn t stop eating the polenta fries and calamari s barely had space for my entree. So so good and the vibe is nice and chill, highly recommend!! New favourite local spot for sure :)

Pasta was too good.

Always great food and service, a go to for lunch for me when Im in Hamilton!!

Love the Margarita Pizza, and wonderful that its $10 Monday, waitress was super friendly so a very lovely lunch date!

A nice cozy spot with lots of light. Ordered the Caprese sandwich and enjoyed it. I recall there being more pork on the menu previously, but seems to have shifted (which I appreciate since I do not consume pork). A bit on the pricey side, but the portion was just right. Kind service and a decent patio. Id go again!

Absolutely love this restaurant! Service is consistently great, and the food is delicious. A great little patio is available, which is where we last dined. Any day is a good day to visit but if you go on Monday or Tuesday (quiet days at restaurants), Caro has (as of this time,June 2023, see Instagram) a special on pizza and wine. A great deal! Highly recommended.

Pasta perfection

Vegetarian options: Some great vegetarian pizza and pasta options. Food

Lovely outdoor patio with lots of space. The food was fresh and yummy, the drinks were unique, well priced and flavourful. The staff was friendly and the service was quick! will come back again.

Nice to see restaurants arent crowding as many tables as possible in, we had plenty of room to manoeuvre our granddaughters stroller and enjoy a great meal. The food was really good at a good price.

Garganelli carbonara is divine!

Great casual Italian restaurant. Staff is friendly, the food is fantastic. Simple but great flavors. All the food is fresh and made with great ingredients. Atmosphere is also a plus. I personally dig the old school hip hop instrumentals playing in the background. Another plus are the cocktails and its a kid friendly restaurant. They all saw have a great patio. I honestly can keep on going on how amazing Caro is =). Theyve also added a Brunch menu for the weekend.

First time customer but wont be the last. Great pizza and salad. service was great!!!!

This place has delicious brunch! I had the avocado toast and it was fantastic, the coffee was also amazing. I can t wait to come back!

The margarita pizza was delicious

Ordered a chicken parm sandwich, carbonara pasta and shrub it in cocktail. There was nothing special about the sandwich, it was average. Me and my gf liked the pasta. Cocktail was too strong so taste wise didn t like it but buzz wise it was awesome lol. Not a huge seating space, cute and small little spot. Service was good.

Great to see gluten free pizza. However cold when I got home and salad was $14. A but over priced to say the least. Reheating pizza in my toaster oven.

Best chicken Parm sandwich I have ever had! Very fresh ingredients. Loved it

We dined in...shared 2 appetizers and one pizza....one bottle of wine in which we poured ourselves. We gave the server an 18% gratuity and didnt even receive a thank you or thank you for coming in. Sorry Caro...we will not be returning since you dont appreciate the business

Good service, and food fresh and tasty. Definitely recommend

Small but in no bad ways. Great food, good portions.

We visited for brunch and it was very good. Kids under 10 have a few free options. Drinks were good too.

Happened upon Caro trying to find a place to eat on a Tuesday afternoon. Staff was friendly Service was fast Food was amazing - calamari delicate but crispy and the arugula salad was perfectly balanced. My only critique was the size of the Coke I ordered. Otherwise a definite recommend.

The servers were friendly and food was served quickly. We ordered the day special pizza it was delicious. All dishes are signature size except calamari. Just note, Salad was $18 and pizza $22. Parking: Near by public parking 9-9pm $1/hour Kid-friendliness: Yes

There was a mold smell upon entering, place looed dirty and run down like know one cares. Patio plants and stones looked uncared for. Salad was bland and pizza was undercooked. Menu looks like it was reduced to items you dont need allot of skill for.Used to come here weekly now would t come here again. Food

We were a smaller group celebrating a birthday. The server was very nice and accommodating. I had a starter the crispy polenta fries and a main course pasta the garganelli carbonara (minus the pancetta I dont eat pork often). I didnt get pics of everyones food just my main but everyone enjoyed their meals. The only thing I dont like about this place is the chairs. I felt like I was going to brake it.. They arent that sturdy. But the food was good and thats the main thing!

Amazing restaurant, my go too. Affordable and great quality!

Such DELICIOUS food! Nice bright environment, friendly staff and did I mention great food?!?!!!

Great food! Had the lunch special and it was great!

Food was very delicious. Best to sit indoors as the streets get rowdy in that area. Food

A few weeks ago, my bestie and I visited Caro on Ottawa for their lunch special and we had her 8 month old baby girl with us. A lot of the time, this can pose as a more stressful/high-maintenance situation for both patrons and the server. Ive even had experiences where staff avoid our table or make us feel like we are a burden for the little added mess and/or noise that a baby may bring to the equation. The person serving us was simply amazing. He was so patient with our table and was very accommodating to the babys needs. It made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. While we have visited both locations many times, this experience was particularly notable. Thank you Caro on Ottawa for your exceptional customer service.

Came in for pizza at lunch time (3 Little Pigs pizza, a bit wet in the center, but overall delicious, the crust is so good). Love their garlic dip for pizza! It was busy and only one server, but we had a good experience.

Nice freshly prepared food....hence service is slow but nice ambience n street view.

I was craving some type of good pasta for a while now. Living in Hamilton, there are some good restaurants, but I occasionally am let down by the quality of the food, in particular the pasta. I knew I wanted a carbonara, so I was able to eliminate some restaurants based on not having this on the menu. The pasta was fantastic! It was everything I asked for. The bolognese was also good, but I was very happy with my selection. The tiramisu was made in small individual Mason jars. It was tasty, but could use real whip cream vs the canned product for $9 a serving. Washrooms are in the basement, just in case you have mobility issues, that might impact your visit. This was my first experience and it wad enjoyable. I would like to try the location on James N next. Id come back for the carbonara! Wheelchair accessibility: Washrooms in basement. Small step up to enter.

Food is amazing!

Came upon Caro by chance when we were looking for a nice place for a birthday lunch in the area and everything else wasnt open until later. What a find! Casual trendy open bistro style. Fantastic fresh handmade meals. Modern Italian. Local family business. The signature bread appetizer Caro was stellar. Blistered cherry tomatoes on a soft yet crispy, nutty loaf with whole cloves of dreamy, soft, fresh garlic. Authentic wood oven style pizzas and fresh pastas/sandwiches. Homemade pesto and marinara makes them stand out. Tiramisu was lovely. They have another location on James apparently. Great value for fantastic food!

Phenomenal food, atmosphere and staff

They serve fantastic pizzas. Highly recommended.

This place was good!
