Hank's Seafood Restaurant Charleston Reviews from The Last Year

Great food, I had the rare seared tuna which was a good portion and quite enjoyable. Although the restaurant was crowded during the dinner hours, there was good service. The vibe was very sea like and southern . My stomach was a little queasy after but overall pretty good
We love Hanks.
As locals, it's fun to go to something touristy that's actually excellent. This visit we got the she crab soup, it was delicious. We got the seafood platter and the fried chicken and it was amazing. Service was amazing also! 10/10.
Having had more than our fair share of underwhelming
Having had more than our fair share of underwhelming Post-Covid dining experiences at C-Town's ubiquitous "locally sourced" (code for US FOOD) eateries, staffed by college kids and chefs whose only experience was on the Low Country circuit, we reluctantly agreed to meet some old neighbors when asked to join them at Hank's. FYI, Hank's is one of the Holy City's Top 25 Restaurants according to Conde' Nast, despite the fact that they (and 23 other competitors) don't bother to participate in Charleston's Annual Restaurant Week - a real slap in the face to locals in our opinion. Arriving shortly after our friends, we were shown to a tight fitting booth, with no tablecloth, located near the restrooms. To add to our already disappointing first impression, we faced the raw bar station, where one of Hank's employees would repeatedly remove his baseball cap to arrange his hairstyle while staring at the mirrored wall. Ambience was classic downtown vibe - lots of inappropriately dressed out-of-towners (baseball caps, jeans, and "Welcome to Charleston" t-shirts, with one woman implausibly wearing Daisy Duke cutoffs and a faux fur Ushanka hat (at least the earmuffs were pulled up) - in other words, All-You-Can-Eat-Shrimp week at Red Lobster or Bubba Gump Shrimp Company customers. Our server, much to his credit, sensed our unease, and did his best to make us feel welcome by cracking a few jokes, thoroughly reviewing the menu and taking our drink order. An all-around nice guy. Soon after, a group of young women arrived with roller bags (confirming my tourist bias). Drinks arrived, but without benefit of cocktail napkins or coasters - typical Charleston amateur hour. Despite the menu proclaiming Hanks as being "voted Charleston's Top Seafood Restaurant" (by whom, it didn't say), I assumed that the actual selection of fish would be similar to most seafood restaurants around these parts (Swordfish/Tuna/Grouper/Mahi), and I was right. Since moving here, we've given up on finding Snapper, Monkfish, Arctic Char, Striped Bass, Dover Sole, Branzino, Turbot, Rainbow Trout, Tilapia Rockfish, Halibut, Sea Bass or Mackeral, just to name a few. The Broiled Seafood Sampler caught my eye, but then I noticed that the dish came with French Fries. Are you kidding me? Not even some rice or broccoli or even asparagus? Oh, wait a minute, I'd have to shell out $14 more for a side dish of three skinny stalks of asparagus. French Fries is a culinary cop-out folks, like serving bagged potato chips with the Yellowfin Tuna appetizer at Quinte Oyster Bar. So, I decided to start with some She-Crab soup (almost entirely devoid of any crab) backed up by a $16 Wedge Salad, lacking any of the traditional croutons, blue cheese crumbles or egg, but instead, came garnished with a pitiful amount of onions, rock hard bacon bits and a couple of cherry tomato halves. Ugh! At that point, I decided to pass on the main course. It was now clear, that Hank's bore no resemblance to my "best in class" SHAW'S SEAFOOD in Chicago (take a look at their website, if you want to know what a superior seafood restaurant is all about). In closing, Hank's may be C-Town's top seafood joint, but in my book, it's just another by-the-numbers, tourist dining destination, recommended to Holy City visitors by the gal running their horse-drawn carriage tour that afternoon or local "Hotel Partners". The type of customers who equate "expensive" with "good" and are willing to overlook the restaurant's egregious 2.5% "Culinary Service Charge" or their 1% credit card charge, because they're on vacation. But, who really cares what I have to say? Hank's will always be as popular as a Titanic lifeboat, and besides, there's going to be a second location soon, in that other notable Foodie enclave...Columbus, Ohio.
Born and raised in Charleston and finally had the
Born and raised in Charleston and finally had the opportunity to experience the famous Hanks Seafood. The atmosphere is friendly and upper class. The staff are approachable and helpful. Our waitor was phenomenal. It was mentioned he looked like KFC colonal Sanders and he thought it was great. He was super personable and knowledgeable. The food was exceptional of course! I had the new England clam chowder, ceviche, and we shared a seafood tower. Everything was so flavorful but I have to highly recommend the clam chowder. The base was so light and packed with flavor. Normally I would have taken pictures but I was so absorbed by the experience. I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
Everything was perfect.
Hanks may be the very best in Charleston. It is however expensive
Only available seating was at the bar.
Rich wood panelling resounds with a long history. Bouillabaisse was divine. Seafood casserole in cream sauce was amazing. Definitely be back

They gave away my table when we were exactly 15 min late, with no courtesy call or text. We made this resy weeks in advance. Won't be back. These restaurants who screw locals and regulars are asking for these reviews.
Hosted a dinner for 11.
Service, meals, and ambience were exceptional! Will return for sure.
Great food!!!! Sat at the bar and had some wonderful bread
Great food!!!! Sat at the bar and had some wonderful bread while waiting to get food. Shared steamed clams and fried chicken. So so good!!! I recommend
Excellent place for fish in historic Charleston.
The dining room is historically elegant. Our only complaint was only loudness from large party, sitting near our table. The menu is varied, and the food is excellent. We done mostly on vegetarian and pescatarian items.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Appointment
I was waiting on the transfer for name but it hasn’t happened yet and my reservation is tonight , will it be an issue that is hasn’t changed into my name yet
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Just got scammed!
Thats unfortunate but you can always get your money back if they cancel the reservation.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
