Hank's Oyster Bar

Love this place. If you like your oyster briny, the Salty Wolfe is the one to order! The popcorn shrimp/calamari beats any calamari in town by far! The French toast is divine.

Great place for drinks and delicious fresh oysters . Everything we had from the menu was cooked perfectly and tasted great! I highly recommend the grilled calamari !

I love this place! The oysters and the wine are out of this world. Each time we go I have great service. Get there early the best oysters go quick!

Best fish and chips in the DMV area. Pan fried rainbow trout is amazing. Muscles are fab. The oysters are superb. What more can you ask for. Oh, wait, the great beer selection ! Yum!

Love the the oysters and atmosphere. Get the sampler to try oysters from around the country . I like the ones from the east coast the best.

Delicious food in a comfortable space at a really affordable price . Highly recommend the oysters of the day. Lobster rolls are mainstyle.

Second time here. I could eat here everyday!! Absolutely fantastic! Great cocktails and on Mondays whole steamed lobsters are $23!!

My goto place in Alexandria for one dozen assorted oysters . And then a great meal. The salads are good to share.

These oysters are beyond delicious. So damn good. Service is amazing too.

"Yes, eating oysters will replenish the dwindling bivalve population, clean the bay waters, and basically save the world, but that doesn't mean you should ignore the rest of Hank's brief menu."

Quaint little restaurant . The food was really good all around. Recommend the fried oysters , popcorn shrimp , and trout .

Milk stout is great and ask the bartender about oyster specials. Good oysters !

Sit at the bar and get half-price oysters . Good deal . Oysters very fresh. Mixed seafood grill was also good.

Oysters are excellent, especially the Duckabush from WA and Golden Chesapeake from VA. Good beer selection , too. Only bad part is this place is cramped and there's no real good place to wait.

Awsome food, but you will need to spend for it a mere lobster roll will set you back 25bucks...but still worth every penny

A great place to enjoy oysters , and a light dinner , that small plate salads are wonderful.

Awesome place for oysters , best oysters I had anywhere. Staff service was excellent and friendly .

Popcorn shrimp and calamari ???????? mahi mahi ????????

Hang town fry: fried oyster frittata , capers , tomatoes , bacon , red onions , cheese , yum!!!

"Hank’s Oyster Bar manages to maintain a buttery softness with its scallops , folded into a weekday (!) omelet , with equally cared for chunks of shrimp ." - November 2012 Issue

Oysters are amazing of course but if you get the chance try the lamb chops . They are tender, juicy and beyond tasty.

Great place. Fresh oysters with nice HHour prices. The Mac & Cheese are awesome. They have Natty Boh !

Great oysters . But bad chairs. Make sure you sit in the back at the semi booth on the cushion side your butt will thank you.

Try the Pan Roasted Trout - Would you like some trout with that butter sauce ? So good. (via @Foodspotting)

Chef/owner Jamie Leeds continues to challenge the seafood status quo, interweaving wide ranging and typically substantive specials. - November 2011 issue

Try the One Dozen Oysters - I ❤ Hank's. East coast oysters . (via @Foodspotting)

Excellent oysters !!! All were amazing! Crab cakes wonderful and key lime pie !!!

Ask the bartender for oyster recommendations!

Try the Oysters - Clockwise from top, in pairs: Ayock Salt, Totten Inlet, North Bay , Blue Point , New Point , Battle Creek

Try the Oysters - Neglected to post this collection of Virginia oysters earlier in the week. (via @Foodspotting)

Try the Oysters - My fave meal in Alexandria. And Myriam is here! (via @Foodspotting)

Heirloom Tomatoes and Corn and Crab Soup are both fantastic - as are the crab cakes and bok choy .

A selection if local oysters . Oh so good!

Oysters are good here as well as the Surf and Turf

Oyster Happy Hour ! Lobster Roll ! Fried clam ! Martinis ! My favorite place in the last three years!

If you have room for something sweet — you really should try the key lime pie . It is to die for.

As strange as this sounds, pair the fried oysters and mac and cheese . We used the mac as an oyster dipping sauce . Amazing flavor.

If you order a half -dozen oysters just try a selection of everything!

Great lobster roll , great mussels great Brussels sprouts

The fried oysters were great. Call right before you go to ensure a table.

Oysters .. And, may be the best crab cake I've ever had!

I never order Mac & Cheese anywhere, but here! Surprisingly amazing!

Seafood , beer selection

Memories abound here. Miss this place. Eat at the bar . Can't go wrong.

Get the New Point Comfort oysters if they have them!! Mild and sweet, my favorite of the Virginia oysters .

The Muscadet is fabulous with oysters . Great tip from bartender . He was absolutely right.

The ceviche and the mussels are incredible. The cocktails are top notch, too! Try the Blue Mule!

Place has amazing specials on oysters through the week! They were bangging

The Dennis Oysters are really nice and have a light brine finish!

The oysters are fantastic the best place to eat oysters
