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!

Tater tots appitizer was a big hit. Our group had the Ahi Tuna, Sea Bass, two steaks, and a seafood salad with jumbo shrimp. All were top shelf. Topped it off with the pumpkin cheesecake which was to die for. Great place to have a meal in DC.
