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.

    Went out for my partner’s birthday dinner and to our surprise they gave a birthday card as well as a complimentary dessert, on top of the already outstanding service. Good food and drinks, server suggestions were great, overall definitely deserving of 5 stars and will be coming back.

    Everything was absolutely perfect! The food, the service, the whole vibe:) This was our second time there and we love it so much. Highly recommended- I don’t think there is anything on the menu that isn’t delicious.

    Greeted immediately by the sweetest host who brought me to a lovely table, the restaurant is decorated beautifully, every aspect was clearly well thought out with a tasteful eye. Our server, Morgan, was warm and knowledgable about the menu, she made excellent suggestions. The level of service was perfect, she was there when needed, but didn’t hover. The menu is small, but what is on the menu is absolutely amazing, the food is present presented like works of art. Two of us shared five items, the mushroom dumplings, the potato croquette, the calamari, the Capelletti and the lamb shank. Every item was a 10 out of 10. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

    We went expecting a nice Mother's Day late lunch off the menu, and all they had was a "Brunch" buffet full of picked apart food. There was hardly any food left. I also wasn't told that we could only have the buffet when booking. There was no mention of not being able to order off the menu. We came specifically for the eggs Benedict and had to leave due to no options. I was excited but everyone was disappointed and we had to leave. Not impressed at all.
    Rapscallion & Co.Responded on May 16, 2025
    Hi Taylor, Thank you for choosing to celebrate Mother's Day with us. We are sorry that the buffet wasn't what you were hoping for. Hopefully we can host you again on another day.
