    We had the beef Wellington! Never had anything quite like it it was amazing. We've watched Hell's kitchen for years and always wanted to go. So I surprised my wife she absolutely was amazed! We go up to Rochester New York yearly from Charleston South Carolina. Definitely make it a yearly stop if not more lol. Our server was amazing. Very bubbly and very attentive! One of the best experiences we've ever had. We sat at a table for twol. Which was perfect because sitting across from the kitchen was like almost watching a Broadway show! Everything that they talk about in the show you can see for yourself. Absolutely amazing.

    Our meals and experience were EXCELLENT. My wife's meal of scallops, our guest's salmon and my shrimp/pasta (Diavalo) were WONDERFUL, as were the calamari and drinks we had before they arrived. While the entrance was a crush of people trying to check in and get seated, the atmosphere was lively and comfortable. The Hamilton is always a great experience but this was a first time for my wife and our guest to have dinner there and they loved it! Our server was good and attentive and wasn't a constant shadow to us either. A good time was had by all!

    Plenty of TVs but the sound only focuses on one TV. Service is good. The food was delish even though a bit pricey. I imagine the convenience/location makes this a great place to hang pre-game or during happy hour.
