Got the avocado toast (3/5) and grilled cheese (4/5) with fries (5/5!!!) to split. Also got the matcha (decent but not worth the price). Very cute place, great location. Five star material but price a bit too much for what you get. Definitely will be coming back for special occasions though.

Hank’s is one of my favs spots in Austin. I’ve been several times with friends and family and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish with a beautiful patio that’s perfect for any time of day. The food is always delicious. I recommend the crispy Brussels sprouts, the wood grilled salmon and the tagliatelle with bolognese. The service is friendly and consistent. It’s the kind of place you keep coming back to.

I've been here a few times and have loved the food every time but on this occasion the lamb meatballs were a bit too dry and overcooked in my opinion. Luckily the sauce it comes with was helping me get through it. I didn't say anything-but would have rather sent it back. Everything else was great that my friend and I ordered.

Never disappoint with their delicious Frose. We ordered the Chicken sandwich, the Cheeseburger and the Shrimp and Grits for brunch. They were all delicious the chicken sandwich was juicy and full of flavor and the sauce in the Shrimp and Grits is to die for.

We’ve been coming to Hank’s for a few years now—it’s easily one of our favorite happy hour spots in town. The ambiance is always spot-on, with stylish design and a laid-back vibe. We especially love grabbing a seat at the bar. On our most recent visit, Miriam took care of us and was fantastic—super attentive, easy to talk to, and made the whole experience even better. We enjoyed the white wine on tap, the frozen Paloma, and the Aperol spritz—all refreshing and well-made. The burger hit the spot, but if you’re looking for standouts, we highly recommend the pesto rice bowl with grilled chicken and the spicy shrimp. Both are packed with flavor and perfect happy hour bites. If you’re looking for a chill, unpretentious happy hour with great service, food, and drinks—Hank’s is the place.

We love Hanks. You'll love it too. It's just a great place to be whether you're indoors or on their porch. The food is delicious and we're especially fond of their mussels. We discovered their cured salmon done in house and it was a great delight. I only wish they would bring back their world class creme bruleè. Le sigh. It was sooooo good.
