    This was our first time at the Lobby. The atmosphere was top shelf. Pretty unique venue which my partner really appreciated. The service was amazing, our server Hallie( I apologize for most likely not spelling her name right) was wonderful! She was super friendly, easy to talk to, gave great recommendations. The food for the most part was pretty good. Just one or two things I maybe would have subbed out from the set v day menu. They had live entertainment, a female cupid of sorts, it was different but fun! Overall it was a great romantic night out, again loved the atmosphere and we most definitely would come back 🙂

    We had a wonderful experience at the Lobby last night, and Jackie was an amazing waitress! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Her great service really made our night special. Thank you, Jackie!”

    Tried two cocktails and could not taste alcohol in either. When we ordered our dinner, server asked if we wanted dessert though we hadn't eaten any food yet... Dinner was mostly tasteless.

    We both had the Spanish Octopus for entrees. We were disappointed to discover what “triple cooked potatoes” actually are: they are simply medium-sized whole roasted potatoes. No sauce, butter, nada. Just 5 whole skin-on potatoes on the plate. It was almost comical - what a letdown - zero effort or imagination with something as special as octopus. We asked for some butter or sauce for them, and the server brought us some cold hard unsalted butter. There weren’t salt or pepper shakers on the table to improve things, so we focused on the octopus, which was good - not exciting, but good. All in all, this was a very underwhelming experience for the price.

    Lobby is a great vibe for hamilton. It reminds me of a place you would find on King West in Toronto . The prices also reflect that. It’s a nice little lounge escape with a DJ. The ceiling is a a cool aesthetic !
