What User likes about Hanks A Restaurant:
The place is small but the flavours are big! The food is superb and the experience was second to none. It was cool to watch this group of four prepare the meals and navigate the small space without a hitch. Impressive! We will come back every time we are in Victoria! Thanks to Laura for being so friendly and accommodating. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Hanks A Restaurant:
