    Very good seafood, especially the appetizers and oysters. Desserts were delicious. Entrees and drinks were just a small step below the rest. Only real complaint is that the dining space is super loud, like barely able to have a conversation without yelling loud

    Dined during lunch on a Friday for a birthday celebration. Second table seated and greeted by Keith our server who was outstanding! Had the Open Faced Crab Melt Sandwich and the Buttermilk Fried Chicken with Grits and Collared Greens and we were not disappointed. They even surprised us with a lit candle in our Key Lime Pie. From the quit ambience to the quality of food and service, you can’t go wrong. Have been to their Charleston location so great to see them here in Columbus as it’s a favorite when visiting South Carolina and now the same closer to home! Will be back. Thanks Keith for making the day even more special!

    We dined at Hank's for the 3rd or 4th time to celebrate our son's retirement since this is one of his favorite restaurants! We could not have been more pleased, since it was just he and his wife and mom & dad! Retiree and wife had the tuna; absolutely excellent, and he and our "bonus" daughter felt it was as good or better than any tuna they've had and we all go to FL for vacations ever since he was 2 years old, so we know "tuna"!! Mom had the lobster! Magnificent! The fries and collard greens that came with it were the best ever. In fact, we both agreed they were the best collard greens we've ever had (and we've lived and vacationed in the South our whole adult lives!). Dad had the mussels; perfectly wonderful in a delicious "light cream" sauce with toasted bread! As good as I've ever had! Appetizers were the oysters casino; excellent, and the scallops crudo. This was a novelty for us and it is a favorite with the son and bonus daughter! Retiree got the peanut butter pie and loved it (but Dad gave it a B instead of an A!), and they brought a small wedge of the key lime pie and Dad gave that an A; tart and limy! Overall, one of life's best dinners! Portions "just right" to generous, service attentive and not intrusive, and even the valet team was pleasant! A new standard for Columbus!

    We went during restaurant week and ate from the regular menu. The food was overpriced obviously expecting more. Presentation of the food was subpar when you’re charging $40-$50 a plate. Our server was constantly at our table for no real reason not letting us really enjoy each other or the atmosphere. The atmosphere itself was gorgeous. I could definitely see going back for a cocktail. But overall feel it was way overpriced for what I got.
