I was not that enthusiastic about going to this place, but as it turned out, it was fabulous. The oysters were amazing. They called them European oysters, but they were from Maine and they were big and juicy and delicious. The coconut lentil soup was also pretty amazing. Service was great and the ambience overall was very very good. I would say they’re raw bar is the most appealing part of the restaurant pretty good wine list also overall service beverage ambience food everything five stars

Brought my boyfriend here to celebrate his 40th birthday. We arrived to an opening celebratory warm drink from the chef before being shown to our table. At the table we found a handwritten happy birthday card and proceeded to have the best dinner either of us has had in awhile. It was amazing. Our waiter, Nickoli ( hope I am spelling it correctly) was phenomenal. We loved our time here and left with full belly’s and happy hearts. Much thanks!

The overall experience of the Hamilton was amazing. Several of our party have food allergies and they accommodated all of us. The food was amazing. Alexandra our server was the best server we encountered all week in DC and the Hamilton is our favorite restaurant. The standouts were the “boots with the fur” cocktail, sweet potato hummus, all out entrees, and the bread pudding and apple galette. Highly recommend!
