this was on a Saturday at 1 PM there weren't very many people there but it was extremely noisy when I walked in there was no host and I waited around 10 minutes to get a table even though I had a reservation. There were three staff members standing by the bar, when I asked if I could be seated they ignored me and then I asked again and they said flatly go wait by the door and someone will get to you eventually. Because of the noise level inside we chose to sit outside and the table was filthy not just from the last diners but it just seemed like it had not been wiped down in weeks because of the stains and the film on the top of the table. Our server was personable and nice however they were not very attentive. The food that I ordered was in my opinion undercooked and by the time we received our one dish it was cold. I've worked in the service industry for decades as front of house and back of house and for the amount of customers present at the time, this experience was not a good value in my opinion. The hospitality, ambience, and food quality, were definitely not worth the weight or the price. However if you live in the neighborhood, it would be a perfectly adequate place to grab brunch if you did not want to host a bunch of people in your home.

The food is fresh and delicious and the cocktails unique--smoky strawberry martini was excellent. Service was friendly and prompt. Great ambience! It is loud in there though so probably hard for a table of six to enjoy conversation easily. My husband and I look forward to going back!

As usual, another great Monday night date night with great priced burgers and vibe. Love me my Hanks.

We had a wonderful time! The food was delicious, and the service was perfect. The ambiance was so nice, with the low lighting inside the restaurant. It was too warm and muggy outside to enjoy the patio. Everything was perfect down to the Chantilly Cake they comped us, as we were celebrating a birthday. Also, with the large parking lot it is really a wonderful place to have a special dinner, as most places you go these days parking can be a challenge. And...they take reservations online. 100% an "A" rating. We will be back!

Delicious food. Took my girlfriend who had never been. She ordered the grilled cheese and was very pleased. The sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy and dry. Delish! I had the turkey sandwich which was also yummy. We had the donut holes for dessert. Great experience and the service was excellent.

We enjoy the food and the  hip Neighbourhood vibe.  I only wish there were more cocktails that were served.Up.
Juan Carlos
Good food and good vibes, the place was just really loud. Kind of unpleasant for the misses. Service was good. Would return
Lindsay
Cute interior and expansive patio--great classic rock on the playlist. The rice and meatballs were dry in our bowls and the shrimp app. tasted like soap. I'd maybe return for HH, but wouldn't be my first pick.
Megan
Went for breakfast/brunch. Great vibe, open, airy, and not loud. Food was good, I did get the steak and eggs and felt that the steak lacked salt but it was properly cooked and juicy. My partner didn't love that iced coffee beverages came in plastic to-go cups for in house dining.

We came to celebrate my Aunts birthday. The food, ambiance and service were all incredible!
We have dined here many many times and loved it. I don't know what happened yesterday but the hostess seemed to have an attitude/eye roll when we politely asked for a booth vs a table with our toddler. Service to take our order was extremely slow. Unfortunately a very mediocre birthday outing and not sure we will be back with the enthusiasm we had in the past. What's the point of indicating on our reservation that the reservation is to celebrate my husband's birthday if the restaurant doesn't even acknowledge it.

Food and service were great! Lemon ricotta pancakes are always our go to. It's huge and easy to share.
Meredith
Hanks has great food, service, parking, atmosphere and vibes! I've been there for both professional and personal meetups and it's always a 10/10!
Leslie
Service was soooooo slow. We were there over 2 hours. Food was okay. My steak came out well done even tho I asked for it medium. Couldn't get it corrected bc she never came back. We got the wrong appetizer. Never got to order another round of drinks bc again she never came back.
