Hanks Oyster Bar: Restaurant Three

Cuisine: Seafood
‎Dining Style‎: Casual Dining
‎Reservations‎: I heard they dont take them but that mightve changed‎
‎Price Quartile‎: $$
‎Parking‎: No Valet‎
Attire‎: Casual
‎Wine Specialty‎: they serve wine?? (try their homemade-seasonal, slow cooked egg nog)

the skinny: im mean what can i say about a joint that i've been to 3 times in one week??

i've developed an insatiable hunger for raw oysters.

no i don't get horny.
no it doesn't make me feel like i'm eating cooter.

Hanks is in the uber trendy area of Dupont Circle (Q St.) but is away from the melee that makes Dupont, Dupont. tucked away in the corner, Hanks hooks you up with $1-$2 oysters on a half shell between the hours of 5:30pm - 6:30pm. if you like oysters you know this price is beyond a bargain, its a fucking steal.

they have other stuff too but...yeah, i eat oysters. calamari/popcorn shrimp basket is a must as well. without being too wordy, Hanks is chic and trendy with carry-out prices. ok, maybe not carryout...chic and trendy with applebee's pricing.

Date Status: Ladies and Gents, i think we've found the most impressive Jump-Off spot. Wanna make her feel "special" without spending that "special" money, take her to Hanks. wanna make him feel like a winner but only spend for the amount of a chicken dinner, take him to Hanks.

*drum roll* ITS A 5 SHAKUR RESTAURANT!!!!!! Seriously yall, i can't get anymore economically friendly without including a dollar menu.
