    I had the squash salad with chicken. Was my first time there. It was delicious i would definitely get it again. Kayla was our server. She was lovely and very helpful as we were having difficulty making a decision.

    First time visiting and had a great meal! We were seated promptly and our drinks and food came out very quickly. The bread pudding was amazing! Our server was very attentive and pleasant.

    Bardo is one of our go-to, fave restaurants in Hamilton. We do feel though, that lately, it has been a bit hit or miss in terms of the consistency of the food. This time, we ordered the pizza which was better than the past couple of visits. The fish special was so heavily battered, the fish was lost on the overwhelming thickness of the crust. Such a nice piece of fish that really just needed pan-searing to bring out the best. Overall, we had a nice meal, but wouldn't say "outstanding". We will continue to return, however, we need a couple really good visits in the future to elevate the status again.

    Unfortunately we were in the restaurant when there were a bunch of lively 20 year olds filling the tables. It was very noisy! It was hard to have conversations at our table with the 6 of us. I was assured by the server (who was lovely) that it was not normally like this midweek! The food is always amazing, so it’s worth going back :)

    It was way too long of a wait for a reservation, 20+ minutes outside in the cold. But other than that our server was great, Levi, and the food was delicious and came out pretty quickly!
