Best American Restaurants in Canal Winchester

Great place to get together with friends! Celebrated a birthday here and the happy hour deals are awesome! Highly recommend the half priced pizzas! The chicken Alfredo pizza was awesome and the birthday girl got a free dessert! Highly recommend!

Seated on time. Calm interior, quiet conversation. No background music to be shouted over, which is a big plus, especially if you have hearing aids! Service was attentive. Espressos were admittedly forgotten by the wait staff, which was otherwise excellent. Once she was reminded, it appeared quickly. Onion soup was hot, cheesy and delicious. Risotto notable for superb combination of flavors. The half portion was generously sized. Cheeseburger was actually cooked medium rare, as ordered. Nice to have selection of several sides not just French fries. The sesame bun was toasted perfectly. Traditional condiments required special request as no ketchup or mustard was offered or presented. Main dish was served as we were still eating our soup. They had great Cole slaw! Beverages of the alcoholic type were diverse and apparently satisfying. The dessert menu looked marvelous, but we did not partake of its offerings, choosing espresso instead. One of my criteria for a good restaurant, having a functional pepper mill on the table (and salt), which was on the table when we were seated. Check! The bread items were freshly made and artisanal. The basket arrived automatically and was not added to the tab. Lighting was subdued. Atmosphere was warm, cozy and relaxing. The menu was creative but not off-putting as there were items familiar to most diners, as well. It is nice to be able to select the size of ones entrée, obviating the need for leftovers unless one is a fan of leftovers. Thoroughly delightful experience! This is one of my favorite restaurants in Columbus! I will return again soon!

Lovely happy hour with friends tucked into a corner table by the window. Our server was so helpful with suggestions.

We had a wonderful experience at Hank’s last night. It was our first visit but will not be our last. Our server, Alexander, could not have been any more helpful and professional without being intrusive. We loved Alexander. I had She-crab soup as did my wife and it was superb. I had the shrimp and grits and my wife had scallops which we found to be excellent. When Alexander heard it was my wife’s birthday, he brought us a humongous piece of carrot cake to take home since we were too full to have dessert there. Thank you so much for a fantastic evening.

We went before a hockey game and were pleasantly greeted and promptly seated. Nicely decorated with a pleasant ambiance. Casey, our incredible server, came over right away and told us about the great happy hour specials, including many menu items at 50% off as well as cocktails and wine. Casey gave us many good suggestions and brought out our food in a timing and logical manner. She checked on us several times and we never felt rushed. Good food at reasonable prices with a great server. Highly recommend!
