La Trattoria

Frommer's Review

This family-oriented restaurant is tucked away in a narrow alley 2 blocks north of the City of Hamilton's harborfront. There's not a single cutting-edge or glamorous thing about it, and that's just what the loyal regulars like. The decor is straight out of old Naples, with a wood-burning pizza oven (the only one in Hamilton) and hanging Chianti bottles. The attentive, if somewhat harried, waitstaff serves generous portions of rather standard, well-flavored Italian food. You'll find 14 kinds of pizza, and the kitchen is happy to create variations for you. Pastas include lasagna, spaghetti pescatore, and angel hair with shrimp, pesto, and sun-dried tomatoes. Veal can be ordered parmigiana style or as scaloppine al limone, and there's a revolving array of fresh fish. If you're very demanding of your Italian cuisine, you'll fare better at Little Venice.
