   Even though we made a reservation and the dining room was not busy, the host sat us in the corner behind a support beam, like we were to be exiled. We changed seats but still felt it wasn’t very cozy right become large, drunk table. Food was excellent (shrimp and grits, mando fish) but service was slow and not very attentive. The waiter never asked me if I wanted another drink! Waiter did give us a free piece of key lime pie for my partner’s bday :)

   I booked this for our anniversary brunch only to be told when we were sat that they were doing brunch due to OSU commencement, wish there would have been some sort of disclaimer that they weren’t doing brunch that day. When we got there (reso at 2:15 and it was the earliest I could get, the place was empty. Again there was no brunch but how were we supposed to know. I would have booked brunch somewhere else and earlier if u had known that e couldn’t get the brunch menu. Only thing against the sever/service would be that we ordered the tuna tartar and the seafood tower, only to find out when it came that the seafood tower came with tuna tartar on it. I wish the server would have told us that, we would have ordered a different starter.

   Hi, Megan! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we’re truly sorry to hear that your anniversary experience didn’t go as expected. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to arrive for a planned brunch only to learn that the menu had changed. While we occasionally adjust our offerings for special events, we regret that this wasn't clearly communicated in advance. We also appreciate your comments regarding the duplicate tuna tartar. Our goal is always to help guide guests through the menu to ensure the best experience possible, and we’ll be using your feedback as a coaching opportunity for the team. We’re grateful you still chose to spend such a special occasion with us, and we hope to welcome you back soon. Sincerely, Hank's Management Team

   Celebratory dinner here for OSU graduation. Great ambiance, good vibe. Most food was really good, calamari and all shrimps were delish. Clams were very salty, fried fish was ok. Server could have been more attentive. Would come back.

   Sat on the patio—traffic noise was noticeable but not overwhelming. It didn’t ruin the experience, just something to be aware of. Food and service were 10/10

    The food was awesome and our service was off the charts! Everything was great EXCEPT it was VERY NOISY. There were 6 in our party. I could only talk the the people directly adjacent to me. This was a big negative to me.

We’re also genuinely sorry to hear that the noise level made it difficult to fully enjoy your evening. While we work hard to create an enjoyable atmosphere for all our guests, it can sometimes be challenging to control the volume when the dining room is especially lively. We really appreciate your feedback, and we’ll continue looking for ways to improve the overall experience. We hope to welcome you back soon for another delicious meal—ideally in a more comfortable setting. Sincerely, Hank's Low Country Seafood and Raw Bar Management
