I often take my friends to this restaurant with my highest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. I get very good feedback from my friends. The dishes they serve are delicious and the team is attentive and cooperative. Whenever we go to this place we pass a splendid evening. I recommend this place with pleasure.

Closed for months, opens up and word spread by word of mouth only from what I could tell.Closed by 3PM daily is what Ive heard but everything online says 4pm...Good food is what I hear but it seems impossible to get for anyone who works through the day...

A great diner with affordable prices. Plate lunch specials and most of menu are made from scratch. Actually can find small lumps in mashed potatoes!!(just give me a spoon&the pot) It is a comfy place with delicious comfort food! Im starving thinking about it.

If youre looking for the best burger in Hamilton, I definitely recommend this place! Ive been going to Kostas for 8 years and I always get their regular big Joe and Im always satisfied. The three ladies behind the counter even knows my name and they are so kind. Great service and such a cute old fashioned diner. Definitely recommend.

This is the breakfast that you want to eat. I had coffee, eggs over easy, and biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were tender and the sausage gravy covered not only the biscuits, but the plate they came on. Very pleased!

Food: Just like Grandma made! I loved every bite.Price: I would be happy to pay double, absolutely worth it.Environment: Established in 1950 and hasnt been updated since I imagine. I loved how it felt like going to a place my Grandmother would have taken me before she passed. Dont change a thing!Staff: Very friendly, loved everybody there!Will return: Indeed I will!

Ive recently had the pleasure of dining at Kostas because my girlfriend has been going here since her childhood. Its a family-owned business and a small diner in downtown Hamilton. The food tastes great and its also very affordable and on the cheap side without sacrificing quality. Both their breakfast and lunch menus have a lot of variety. I recommend coming here for any meal.

I always look forward to coming here. Having been coming here either for dine in or take out for five years. You will not be disappointed. It is like an old-fashioned diner. With a few tables but mostly large comfortable booths. As soon as you walk in, you can always find a place to sit, and are always greeted with a cheerful smile or greeting. A waitress promptly comes to your table and the service is extremely fast. They cook where you can see her on the grill. She keeps it very clean, and the food is never greasy. The macaroni and cheese is the best. They have a wonderful variety of menu items, such as Tuna melts, lunch or breakfast specials, double deckers, the best Omelettes, club sandwiches, kids would love it here..something for everyone and the prices are outstanding, and they give you alot of food. The chef salad is the best in town. They also have a special Thanksgiving meal where you can dine in, or take out. Usually served one week before Thanksgiving. Just like homemade..all the fixings..you choose. If you take it out to go, you just call them, tell them what sides you want, and you get so much food for a very reasonable price, it is delicious. They have milkshakes, coffee, hot chocolate, great pies. A great place to go and relax with awesome good and friendly service.

When I went to school right down the road from Costas, my friends and I would always come up here for lunch. The sevice always welcomed us and took our orders with a smile. We would chat a while and they would bring out our food which was always excellent.My favorite thing to get was always the eggs, homefrys, and biscuits and gravy. It was served on a large plate that was covered from side to side with food. The eggs were cooked to perfection and they had so much extra gravy for me to run the home fries through.All together Costas is an amazing experience that I believe anyone should come try out for the taste of Hamilton.

It is exactly what you expect in a diner, nothing more, nothing less. Not the super value some reviews implied, but not bad. Have had a variety of breakfast and lunch, pleased with all. Mom and Pop only so it may take a minute if crowded.
