"One of D.C.’s largest restaurants, the Hamilton’s spaciousness and its eclectic menu (from pasta to bar food to sushi) make it a nice fit for bigger crowds. They also have both traditional and late-night happy hours." - Missy Frederick
"This sprawling restaurant in the Clyde’s family (same owners as nearby Old Ebbitt Grill) boasts a late-night menu featuring everything from boozy milkshakes to sushi (tip: it’s $5 off rolls after 10 p.m. weeknights and 11 p.m. weekends) to carnitas, with the bar and restaurant open until 2 a.m. (kitchen closes at 1 a.m.)." - Missy Frederick
"The Hamilton is hosting two New Year's Eve shows. Yonder Mountain String Band goes on at 9:00pm, with tickets ranging between $50 and $70. Then, at 9:30pm, Jenny Langer & Moonshine Society will play a show upstairs in The Loft where guests are encouraged to dress in their "finest 20s attire." Entry is $35. Beyond the dance parties, the downtown restaurant has plenty of seating for big groups, and a truly gargantuan menu that covers everything from pasta (skip) to sushi (try)." - omnia saed
"Big sushi fan? Then flock to The Hamilton for its sushi happy hour. Find $5-off rolls daily from 2 p.m. until 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. from Sunday through Thursday and 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday and Saturday. The Clyde’s family of restaurants, which includes nearby standby Old Ebbitt Grill, also runs early and late-night oyster happy hours." - Claudia Rosenbaum
"The Deal: $5 off sushi rolls The sushi at The Hamilton is surprisingly good. Surprising because the all-day menu at the downtown American restaurant includes everything from shrimp linguini to duck confit. And although the Happy Hour does not include drinks, fresh $6 rolls at midnight are a pretty sweet deal." - omnia saed
