    I love everything about any restaurant I’ve been to in the Clyde’s group. It’s been a while since I’d been to the Georgetown Clyde’s, but it was just as great as I remembered it being. I rated the noise level as moderate because the overhead music was turned on quite loud, but when asked if they would turn it down, they did. I don’t like to have music playing so loudly that I can’t visit with people right at my table and they were very accommodating.

    We found this Belgian restaurant on Open Table while visiting a friend at Sibley Hospital, where dining options are pretty limited. It was a delightful surprise! One of our group, who has visited Belgium several times and loves Belgian cuisine, was especially excited. We shared several dishes: the mussels, a small cheese plate, and of course, frites paired with Belgian beer (Duvel, I believe). Everything was delicious! The atmosphere was cozy and authentic, and the service was very good. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking for a yummy meal. It truly felt like a little taste of Belgium.

    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!

    I took my wife here for her birthday. It was the first time either of us have been and it was Phenomenal. The food was amazing and the drinks were great. Our serve was Briana and she was extremely attentive and knowledgeable about both the menu and drinks. She gave great suggestions and made sure we were taken care of. She definitely helped make the experience better with how accommodating she was with everything. My wife loved it and they even gave us a more secluded table so we could have our own little corner to ourselves. We will definitely be going back!
