This is still our favorite place to have lunch in Alexandria. The bento box option is wonderfully tasty and filling. The service is always attentive - we had Noah helping us this time. It’s a shame Yunnan is leaving Alexandria, but we’ll be visiting their future location in Pentagon City.

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!

Space is beautiful. Some food was great like the roasted oysters and the steak. Other items not so good like the crudo and French fries. Wine list is extremely poor. Place was on the empty side which did not add to the ambience. Couch seating was cozy. Not sure if I will be back.

It was an office holiday luncheon. It took a few minutes for the waitress to stop by and take our order, but after that slight delay, everything was excellent. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I plan to return.
