    Exceptional Experience! Arrived a bit early with my visually impaired friend, and were directed to a waiting area that was, unfortunately full. A server recognized that my friend was struggling a bit (she is 83) and offered us a seat at an empty table, and immediately notified her manager of the situation. In just a few minutes, Kevin, one of the Day Managers on 10/24/26 came and helped us find a seat in the waiting area, and expedited our seating at the table. We were taken to our table by table, where we enjoyed an absolutely flawless meal and flawless service. Kevin checked on us several times (as did our wonderful server), helped my friend to the restroom, waited for her, and escorted her back to the table where we finished up our amazing experience. Not only were the staff attentive and helpful, the ambiance, the food, and the entire experience was simply wonderful. I cannot say enough great things about The Hamilton, and the people who helped make our experience exceptional! Thank You Kevin and staff!

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Filomena Ristorante was absolutely incredible! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere, service, and food made the entire experience feel special. The portions were very generous, the food was delicious, and the service was exceptional. We were visiting Washington, D.C. as a family, and Filomena was one of the highlights of our trip. It has such a unique, old-school Italian atmosphere and truly feels like an experience, not just dinner. Even with kids, we felt welcomed and had a wonderful evening. If you’re visiting Georgetown and looking for an amazing Italian dinner, I highly recommend Filomena. It is definitely worth the price, and we would absolutely return on another trip to D.C.!
