I have never had a bad or less than near perfect meal here. The drinks are amazing even special order and not just the f the menu. The servers remember your favorite meals and the way you like you drinks. This is an amazing place to eat.

I love Hamiltons! They've been one of my go-to restaurants in rotation for over a year. I have some dietary restrictions which helps when the people who serve you can name the allergens from each dish and take it seriously.

Definitely a sit-down place with an upscale but non-pretentious atmosphere. I'm a regular but I also love coming for special occasions because the vibe here facilitates a cozy meal with family or friends.

Lovely atmosphere, great service but honestly based on the price of food it wasn't up to par. There was nothing special about it at all and the servings were incredibly small and forgettable. The crab cakes dinner and calamari salad was delicious but the other orders were again just adequate. At these prices the consumer deserves better than just adequate.
