Hank's Oyster Bar - Dupont

“OMG - exceptional! Fun, relaxed atmosphere, excellent service, fresh food! The hushpuppies are the BEST I've ever had!! The servers are terrifically knowledgeable and make perfect recommendations.”

“Very fresh and delicious food. The Branzino was great and the scallops special was also excellent. Vegetables tasted farm fresh. Nice selection of friendly wines too.”

“We were in Washington and randomly decided to grab a bite — and it was such a great choice! 🍴 The food was amazing, the atmosphere cozy, and the service top-notch. Highly recommend for anyone who loves pleasant foodie surprises! 🌟”

“Came to DC for the memorial weekend. One stop on my many adventures between DC and MD was this restaurant. And I am glad I did. Me and my guest did not have a reservation so we opted to sit at the bar until a table was available. We came on a Saturday during brunch. The hostess was pleasant but Chad stole the show. His drinks were amazing. Mine was one he made up and it was sooooo good. Food was fresh and served quickly. Flavors were also on point. Our server was friendly and had excellent oyster recommendations. Very good. I definitely recommend and would come back.”

“Waitstaff was very professional and witty. The atmosphere was nice, I thought the restaurant could have had more character. Food was okay, I think the best thing u had was cole slaw -- poboy bread was good. The ceviche and shrimp were okay but nothing I'd crave. Chips were horrible. Honestly, the waitstaff was best part of the restaurant I was a bit disappointed. Someone recommended I eat here, however they did tell me the location at wharf was recommended. My dining buddy got the oysters. He thought they were good, but not best he's had.”
