Hank'S Oyster Bar

At Hank's Oyster Bar patrons enjoy coastal favorites and New England beach fare classics like lobster rolls, daily fish specials and meat 'n' two. Lightly fried items such as the popcorn shrimp and calamari and Ipswich clams balance Hank's ice bar options which consist of a selection of raw oysters, tartar and ceviche. A major neighborhood success since it opened in May 2005, Hank's Oyster Bar in Dupont Circle was nominated for "Best New Restaurant" in 2006 and "Best Neighborhood Restaurant" in 2007 by The Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington. Chef Leeds' success is based on her simple, approachable seafood, consisting of small and large plates for sharing.
