Hank's Mexican Food — Restaurant in Costa Mesa

I'm a bit torn on this review. Overall, I think a solid 3. I ordered the chicken burrito platter and the Hank's nachos.

The service was great.

The weather was great to eat outside. There are 3 or 4 tables inside.

Maybe the review had my expectations higher.

The chicken burrito was just shredded chicken and melted cheese. It was quite plain, but nothing was wrong. Maybe a bit soggy, not exactly sure why. The green salsa kind of saves it for me. The beans and rice were meh.

The nachos with carnita were ok too. The nachos get soggy quickly. The toppings are good.

This is a great place to eat. A small family owned restaurant, with amazing food, wonderful staff, and a great selection. The restaurant has some seating in the small dining area, but more of a take out place than a sit down restaurant. The time from order to food in hand was very fast. Everything was cooked to order, amd the food was hot and delicious.

I absolutely love Hanks. Been a loyal customer since the 90’s when I accepted The Lord Jesus Christ as my personal savior and was introduced to Hanks as a Christian owned business by a Brother never looked back. Even when I moved to South county I still came once a week. Now that I’ve been back in the CM for 8 years it’s several times a week. This closing at 5pm is hard on me. I get off work no earlier then 5pm and will have a crispy burrito hole in my hart all week till Saturdays. Hope all is well we are praying for you all as I feel in my heart something is just not right....
