Hamilton Township's Restaurant Scene: A Foodie's Guide to 6 Must-Visit Spots
2023-11-07
Discover the diverse flavors of Hamilton Township with our guide to six must-visit restaurants that promise a memorable dining experience.
1. Lobster Dock
Lobster Dock is a seafood lover's paradise! I savored their shrimp salad, clam chowder, and lobster pasta, each dish cooked to perfection. It's not just a restaurant, but a fish market too, offering fresh seafood to take home. The fried fish is always fresh and tasty, and their fish and chips are a must-try. The new owners have truly transformed this place. The service is friendly and the food, simply out of this world. If you're a seafood aficionado, your tastebuds will thank you for visiting Lobster Dock!
Just BeClaws is a seafood lover's paradise! Their garlic parmesan wings and crab meat fries are a must-try. The Crab Fries are the bomb, topped with a random sauce that's simply amazing. The Lobster roll, with its soft bread and butter-smothered lobster, is a delight for the tastebuds. The Lobster Melt and the 'People's Choice' bucket combo are also worth trying. The JB Sauce is flavorful and the JB Fries, loaded with crab meat, are perfect for sharing. The place gets crowded quickly, so it's best to go early. And remember, it's a hands-on experience, so dress accordingly!

3. Bang Ga Nae
Had a fantastic time at Bang Ga Nae! The lamb chop was hot, tender, and fragrant, a real treat for the senses. The steamed goat and seafood pancake, a vegetable-based delight, is a must-try. The black goat meat was the best I've ever had, so moist and the sauce was simply amazing. Don't miss out on the steamed goat and tofu on the side, it's a taste sensation. However, service could be improved. Despite this, it's one of my favorite spots in the area. The goat soup and steam goat are must-haves. Just a heads up, the pancakes could use less scallions and more crunch.

4. Gamja Tang Tang
I had an amazing experience at Gamja Tang Tang. The food is authentic and the ambiance delightful. The gamja tang and pork dishes are a must-try, and the bossam looks promising for my next visit. However, be prepared for a bit of a wait, but trust me, it's worth it. The broth is the best I've had in the US, and it's on par with what you'd find in Korea. Just a heads up, it's BYOB. Unfortunately, I did experience some service issues, but I hope it was a one-off incident.

5. The Brookwood Cafe
I've been brunching at The Brookwood Cafe for a while now and it's always a delight. The staff is warm and welcoming, and the food is consistently delicious. They showcase artwork from emerging artists, adding a unique touch to the ambiance. The owner, a local high school physics teacher, makes you feel like a close friend. They source fresh, organic produce whenever possible, which is evident in the quality of their meals. The breakfast and lunch specials are a must-try, and their holiday menus and coffee blends are seasonal treats. I highly recommend this spot for a hearty brunch!

6. Hamilton Tap & Grill
Hamilton Tap & Grill is a foodie's paradise! Their beef brisket, pork ribs, roasted chicken, sausage, and corn are my go-to orders. The beer selection is top-notch, carefully curated to complement the high-quality food. The service is beyond great, making it my favorite bar. The vibe is chill and welcoming, perfect for a casual night out. The food is always fresh and delicious, from the zucchini sticks to the sesame salmon and the perfectly cooked medium-rare beer cheeseburger. Despite the construction, it's open and ready to serve you a memorable meal!
