Wild Orchid Restaurant Downtown Hamilton

Went out with my friends for a birthday party here. We brought a cake, to be cut there after having dinner. We asked for extra spoons, they asked for $2.5 each for a SPOON! How ridiculous is that?? We split the bills, One of my friends skipped the tip and a middle-aged watress literally yelled "Oh so you are not leaving a tip!?" What kind of absurdity is this? Who does that? You cannot possible ASK for a tip! Horrible experience. Would never recommend.

One of our favorites!

Another amazing meal at Wild Orchid Portuguese restaurant.

Always an amazing experience here. Jorge is a perfectionist Beef a casa was so on point and perfectly executed. Service is amazing. Claudia is super great. But let’s talk about the food. a ALWAYS great. Great wine selection and again anything you order is going to be awesome.Also Jorge has won awards since 1996.

The restaurant has a great interior but was half empty. Our server was super personable. The sangria was delicious. We ordered the rabbit and the seafood pasta. After about 15 minutes our server came back and told us they were out of the rabbit so my partner switched to the steak. The stuffed bread appetizer was delicious. Our main came out and I was brought the rice, not the pasta. Our server was super apologetic. Although I really wanted the pasta, the rice was delicious.

Great little spot for some authentic Portuguese food, the food was awesome with a few varieties to choose from. Huge wine selection that goes along with the food as well. It's a bummer that there wasn't any cocktails on the menu. The place is nice and cozy, has that old and rustic vibe to it; however, it didn't feel much alive to be honest, which kind of affected the atmosphere.
