    We were greeted with a big smile at the front stand and promptly seated. This vibrant spot featured fresh, well-prepared sushi and an array of American and Italian selections. Every dish we selected was excellent. Though the place was packed and the noise level was predictably high, I had requested a quiet table when reserving and we were seated in a private booth complete with a door and coat hooks - the closest thing to our own dining room. The star of the evening was was our server Brian S. He was cheerful, informative, professional, welcoming, and everything one wants to insure a good experience when dining out. Kudos to The Hamilton - everyone got everything right!

    Once again, Old Ebbitt Grill was great! Even though crowded due to Xmas, they were super organized and handled reservations well. The food, steak frites, stead salad, and bowl were perfect and the brownie sundae couldn't have been better. Our server Alexa made it even more fun with her efficiency and adept handling of the many things going around us.

    Absolutely loved the entire experience. Wonderful ambience, outstanding wine, escargot to die for, the salmon…light and flaky, with a potato crust and lemon beurre blanc sauce that was utterly out of this world. Cannot wait to return!

    From the moment we walked in, every one was welcoming. The atmosphere was relaxed with an old world feel. Our server Lindsay had great insights into the menu. The tuna crudo was fresh and not too spicy. Beets are my favorite and they were paired nicely with the melt in your mouth burrata. First time trying rockfish and the flavor was light with a flaky texture. My companion commented the duck breast was flavorful and tender. The drinks were spot on. The bananas foster was incredibly delectable. Not overly sweet. I am looking forward to coming back.
