Amazing place. Looks old timey and run down outside. Well let's say rustic original. Inside is the most elegant 5 star experience ever. Amazing staff and the freshest seafood I ever had. I had just returned from the Bahamas if that can explain how good it was. 

Business response:

Thanks for the five star review, Timothy! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

It didn't live up to the hype in my book. As first time visitors to Charleston and Hank's we ate at several restaurants for a lot less that had much better service. The service at the bar was exceptional, but the table service was less than what you'd expect from this kind of restaurant. Our server seemed to disappear. We were half way thru our meal before he checked on us to see if we needed anything. My husband was pleased with his appetizer of mussels and his entire, a la wando. I wasn't with my shrimp and grits, I'm not ... read more

We went last night September 18th and loved the food and the service. I don't generally order fried foods but the grouper and shrimp were excellent! We would highly recommend this restaurant to others and we have eaten at very upscale places. 

Business response:

Honestly it's way overpriced for the food. We expected an amazing meal with exceptional service and it lacked both. It was my dads birthday and he had a miserable experience. Salmon was just so so with an awful sauce and grit cake (didn't go at all) and the seafood pasta was bland and super watery. Service was not nearly what it should have been, not one person asked us how we were enjoying our meal. As a local I highly suggest not coming here. So many better places in Charleston where u won't spend $200. Very disappointed. 

Business response:

We loved our dinner. We tried appetizers and entrees and a dessert to share. Everything was wonderful. The crab cakes were practically breadcrumbless. Very creamy and delicious. The ahi tuna was fabulous. And portions were quite large. I personally think the portion of Wando Seafood is large enough for 2 and the sauce is absolutely delightful. The roasted grouper was perfectly cooked. The key lime pie was a perfect ending. Service was very attentive. And no one broke my cardinal rule of taking a utensil away and not replacin... read more
