Best Steakhouses in Hamilton

So we got there a little earlier than expected for our reservation due to a giant wind/rain storm. We decided to grab a drink at the bar while we waited for our reservation time. I got an Elmer T Lee with a large cube and my wife got an espresso martini. The espresso martini did not fill the glass which was odd and it was overly boozey tasting. But the real issue I had with the bar was the bill. They automatically added 20% gratuity to a bar bill which is completely unacceptable. I worked in the industry when I was younger and was even a bar tender. She made a single drink, which was the espresso martini, and then poured whiskey, which I had to show her where it was, into a glass for a $9.00 tip. She received a %5.00 dollar tip alone from pouring a single whiskey. This is unacceptable. Every reasonable person knows you do not get tipped on the whiskey pours and the beer/wine pours. Its perfectly acceptable to add a dollar for each of those drinks. Honestly when you add automatic 20% gratuity to anything, youre essentially adding a tariff to the entire menu. Every single item on the menu is incorrect, because you added a 20% tax on every single item you should have two prices on the menu next to the item. Now we went ahead and continued to dinner. The appetizer was the hashbrowns and cavier which was delicious, perfectly portioned. The Lobster Bisque soup was very good and had some interesting flavors. My wife got the 6oz filet and it was cooked perfectly, I had the duck breast and it was also delicious. We went with the mac and cheese, which was nicely portioned for the price and extremely creamy. Perfect for two people to split. Then as our bill was coming out the server warned us it included 20% gratuity which was appreciated. She informed us we could change it if we wished. I really wished the bar tender would have done the same.

The service was great. Our waiter gave us great recommendations for our first time being there. The service was great. Everyone was very attentive. Cocktails were perfect in our opinion. Not too boozy just right. Food was great. Have to try the  spinach raviolis. We are coming here again the future.

It was Valentine’s Day so we knew it would be crowded and loud. So we were cool with that. However the food was not up to its usual standards. The lamb chops were under cooked and the sides were luke warm. We didn’t want to send it back but it was just too much going on and we didn’t want to wait too much longer. We love Maestro’s but will probably NEVER go on Valentine’s Day again.

Went here for valentines day it was packed through the roof but I had reservations so that did not apply to me. It was a solid 8 only because we kept getting the same meat choices we even ask a server cam you send some over our way we were tucked off in the back by the bar they kept offering steak not so much chicken I got offered 1 chicken the whole time I was there we really wanted the sausage but they kept saying someone was coming over with it but nope. Our waiter forgot about us I guess so we waited a good 20 min or more before some one handed us water and silverware no napkins though. The market food bar was a 3 not much option to chose from. Wish we didn't have to park so far just to get there. The passion drink can't think of the real name was soooooo good not the strawberry one was not so much they were price at 10.00 on the top of the page. I would have to come back and experience it again because of the option of meat that we did not get to eat 64 a person and was only offered steak and 1 option of chicken is crazy work but I get it it was valentines day but still.no one hardly came to back bar area

The Prime Ribis the best of the best in Baltimore. The food is incredible. The room is old-school and very elegant, including live piano and sax. We absolutely love Aaron and feel lucky when we get him. There is no one like him. He is so kind, so knowledgeable and just makes our whole experience perfect!!! Love, love The Prime Rib!
