Hank's was delicious as usual. Unfortunately, we had barely sat down when a waiter spilled a full glass of ice water on me soaking my right arm and right side and lap to the skin. Apologies were offered and accepted, but I was surprised to open our bill and see that not even our first course soup was comped. We're... more

Great seafood, beef very good also. The waitress was very accommodating, handled my picky sister well. The wine list is a little pricey for what they offer. more

Great atmosphere and wonderfully prepared fish from the South Carolina seacoast. Wasn't sure about eating at the "community" tables but we loved it. Met some really nice folks over great food and excellent service. more

We enjoyed a great meal at Hanks. It is a little larger in size, with hard wood floors, so it is consequently a little noisy for a romantic kind of event. Not too fussy, but not too casual either. Food is very good and consistent and the menu options were very good. Our server was very knowledgeable about the preparation... more

We dined here on a recommendation. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. On top of that it's located in charming historic district of Charleston. Pro's - Jumbo shrimp appetizer was unbelievable. I don't recall what the sauce was but I'm sure I could've eaten those shrimp all night long! Main course also good. Swordfish and grouper were cooked... more
