    Beer Cheese & Pretzel

    Had an hour to kill before the fundraiser event started. Loved the vibe and atmosphere of this space. Just beautiful inside. Learned it was only 5 years old. Nice selection of wine, beer and cocktails. Will be back!

    Absolutely phenomenal little spot! If you're a cheese fiend, this is definitely the place for you. Charcuterie. Melted cheeses of all sorts. Sandwiches (with and without cheese.) And wonderfully crafted cocktails. Great date night spot!

    Nestled in amongst the Hamilton Ave old commercial buildings, this place has charm. Patio is roomy while the inside is cozy. No loud music so conversation can survive. Service was very good but the kitchen was slightly off on their timing as my wife's tacos came out quickly but my brats took longer to get out. No big deal as the food was good and the atmosphere was pleasant. Street parking at $1.25 per hour from 8am to 9 pm.

    Blackberry mule and jalapeño margarita

    Absolutely love this place. They have craft cocktail night on Saturday for 7 dollars. They also have 10 dollar bottles of wine! Didn't get food but I have before and it is amazing. In the summer there is a patio which is so cute but in the winter like now it is cozy and warm. Love the knowledgeable staff and friendly people. This is the only Northside place I would give 5 stars. Plan on returning very soon.

    This place really is delightful. My partner and I opted for the hummus plate (the hummus flavor rotates, and we were delighted to find out today's flavor was dill) and the charcuterie board. I remember coming here about a year ago for the amazing vegan charcuterie, but that was not listed on the current menu. Though it is worth the ask-it was delicious. The hummus was an ample portion with carrots, celery, and pita bread for dipping. Likewise the charcuterie was quite large and came with 3 meats, 3 cheeses, a variety of pickled offerings like baby dills, olives, pickled beets, pickled artichokes, and mustard, apple butter, and crostini. We did not leave hungry. I tried both the jalapeno margarita (good, but not spicy) and the summer BBC (delicious and boozy). The service was also exceptional and attentive and I'd recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a fancier date night but not too frou-frou in either ambiance or pricing. Just a really solid, "I feel like treating myself" spot.

    The Hamilton is quiet and intimate with fantastic cocktails and simple, good food. The service is thoughtful and attentive. I've been three or four times; very consistent. Check it out!

    Summer BBC, Kentuckian, ricotta and honey

    The Hamilton is such a gem! Stopped in for a pre dinner cocktail and sat on the patio. The patio is such a lovely space. Lots of plants and cozy seating. Also shaded at that time of day (6 PM). I had a Summer BBC and a spicy margarita, and my husband (2) Kentuckians. All were delicious. The Summer BBC was especially refreshing. We ordered the honey and ricotta. Again, delicious, and perfect as a pre dinner snack. This place is something special. Be sure to stop in!

    This bar is appropriately named The Hamilton. It's located on Hamilton Avenue. They have an Alexander Hamilton theme. Good cocktails. There's also some food that's fancier than typical bar stuff. Inside it looks like it's been there awhile. Not really, because this bar is pretty new. There's lots of exposed brick, which makes it seem rustic. All the signature cocktails sound good. Too many to choose from, but anything you choose should be okay. Cocktails here are about $10, but they also have a happy hour. I had the Treasurer. Another appropriate name. Hamilton was Treasurer of the United Stated of course, so this is like the signature drink here. It also has some food. This seems like pretty fancy stuff. Charcuterie is assumed to be meaty. Vegetarians can get it however because they have a version made from tofu. Overall a very good bar. Excellent cocktails. The food is healthy and vegetarian friendly too.

    Raspberry Beret + The Delaney
    Tabitha W.

    The husband and I had a small bar date here, and we enjoyed our visit. I started with the Raspberry Beret cocktail ($9) - housemade raspberry vodka, lemon, and raspberry liqueur. My husband had the Delaney cocktail ($8) - Pimm's Blackberry Elderflower, lemonade, and prosecco. Strong start to our bar/dining experience. I also ordered the Streetcar ($8) - brandy, hibiscus liqueur, triple sec, and lemon juice. I don't think I'm much of a brandy fan. As others have noted, they have a fair amount of vegetarian options, which is great to see! We shared the Modern Fondue ($14) - Gruyere, Port Salut, white cheddar, apple, fried artichoke, pear jam, and crostini. We also shared the Warm Goat Cheese ($12) - whipped goat cheese, roasted garlic and tomatoes, sundried tomato, basil, and crostini. They were both tasty dishes. Literally the only complaint we had about our experience was that we were charged $2 for the additional crostini we asked for. Considering we'd already paid $26 for just our food (both items served with crostini), I would think it would be reasonable to expect that an adequate amount of bread be provided to complete the dish.

I had beef tacos and pata margarita! Deliciousness served! The staff and owner were friendly and engaging and so accommodating! Oh and did I mention they had DJ Nova spinning the 1s and 2s right outside. This place was an entire vibe! I ate! I drank! I danced! I went home with a full heart and belly!

    First and last time visiting Pata Roja. Ordered 5 tacos for takeout: a birria without onions, a…read morepollo with no onions but added cheese and crema, and another birria + two pollo birria with the regular toppings (assuming cheese, onion, and cilantro but it doesn't list anywhere what the tacos come with). Picked it up, took it home and realized all 5 had onions, and the pollo taco had no cheese or crema. Drove all the way back and waited at least 20 minutes for them to be remade. When we got the new tacos we realized the only topping on any of them was cheese; no onions or cilantro on the three regular or crema on the pollo. They told us they don't have crema even though it's available to order on takeout and they charged us for it. At that point it had been forever and we were starving so we just took it. Food was good and they were nice enough to remake it but absolutely not worth the hassle especially since we never actually got what we ordered.
