We booked here based on the menu and reviews online but were very disappointed.The server was helpful describing the menu but then disappeared for 15 minutes before we got our order in.The sausage baked in bread was delicious, the sardines were ok and the fried calamari was chewy and wet.For some reason our entrees arrived before we had finished the appetizers, the lamb was over cooked and a bit chewy, the steak was just ok and the sea bass was tasty but full of bones. We were offered coffee but no dessert. Probably wouldn’t have bothered anyway.The fact there were only 3 tables in on a Saturday evening when places nearby were packed speaks volumes.

My wife and I just experienced one of the best meals we've had in a long time. We both had the Beef a Casa , with chorizo pastry as an appetizer Both Outstanding! Prices are very reasonable as well. As for the decor , My Wife ( who is Portuguese) says it reminds her of the restaurants in Portugal.And our waitress Claudia is one of the best, who really made our experience complete. We will definitely be back!K. Gorman.

This is a gem. The staff is so friendly. The ambience is very nice and food was on point. We stopped in on Mother’s Day without a reservation and they accommodated us. If in the area again we will definitely stop by.

This place was Extremely disappointing. I was hoping to Enjoy a meal out with my family, and we decided to eat in. I ordered theSamon and roasted potatoes, The salmon was very Salty, and way to charred on the outside, all I could taste was pure salt and burnt fish. the flavor was to salty, and the Quality of the salmon Tasted like the frozen cut packs from the 10 dollar bin at the Grocery stores( pretty sure it was). The potatoes where not seasoned and tasted very plain. I also almost bit into a hair on one of my Potatoes. My Daughter ordered the Rabbit with Roasted potatoes. The Rabbit was not too bad just very very oily, and mosty bone( not worth the price based on the flavor and the bone. The potatoes were the same very bland just plain no seasoning at all. My Husband, and son ordered the chicken dinner, legs and thigh With fries, my Husband tried his first the Chicken had a fishy taste and was so dry he could barely get it down with water. My son is 10 and gas Autism and refused to touch his after that ( can't say I blame him) the fries where not good either. The waitress took of the chicken meals, but did try to make excuses about the issues which made it very uncomfortable. The sangaria was the only decent that was ordered. Even the pops where flat* The order would have cost around $159 but with the chicken dinners removed it was $109 very small portions for my daughter's Rabbit dinner, and my salmon dinner but it was gross anyway. The atmosphere was also bland when we arrived it was dinner time and we where the only people dinning( should have saw that as a red flag. Every other place we walked by was packed with people. Trust me don't waste your money dinning here. There's also not a huge selection of food so they should be able to get these things right. I'm honestly surprised they have over 4 stars for reviews. Was not appetizing at all."

Food is above average for a bar type restaurant.Rabbit was a bit disappointing. The stew was well seasoned but the meat was a bit dry. Of the dishes we had the seafood over rice was our fave. Delicious! Calamari was also yummy.The service is friendly, but because the restaurant is so long, the servers run back and forth a lot and service ends up slightly slower. A few times we couldn't get what we asked for (glasses, place settings) and just grabbed it ourselves from other tablesAtmosphere was a typical bar. Nothing special but clean.

My spouse and I love dining at Wild Orchid, situated in the heart of downtown Hamilton. The restaurant's strategic location enables us to explore other attractions along James Street.

Delicious authentic Portuguese food! Wild Orchid is one of my favourite restaurants in the city. I ordered the Arroz de Marisco (Portuguese seafood rice) and it was phenomenal. Will definitely be back.

Great food, great staff. We enjoyed the patio. The products are fresh and well cooked. Only little issue, our pastas came lukewarm and the waitress didn’t suggest to warm them up.
