We ate outside because I like to watch the people and if the inside is full it can be noisy.More infoHamiltons' At First & Main$$$$• Contemporary American• Charlottesville•4.8
- SScorpyVirginia •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI was warmly greeted by Anthony, who led me to our table (I had dropped my friend off at the restaurant before parking the car). Our server, Kevin, was fantastic! He was friendly and knowledgeable and provided top-notch service. The food was as terrific as it always is.
