"If you’re planning a nice dinner in the Palisades, have it at Hank’s. The American-ish spot has been a neighborhood standard for years, but recently went under the knife and emerged with a new menu and an indoor/outdoor space perfect for a cutesy Westside date night. The menu has all the bistro staples like steak frites and tuna nicoise, and while nothing reinvents the wheel, it all tastes very good. We particularly love the jumbo shrimp cocktail (emphasis on the jumbo) and the crackly jidori chicken on a bed of chimichurri." - Brant Cox
