Hank’s Pizza

If you ever wanted a smaller restaurant that offered you more of a welcomed friend than customer feeling this is the place. It is an older building but the staff and owner go above and beyond, the appearance. The food was amazing! Small but perfect for those who want to be known by name and feel welcomed. I loved the calzone an breadsticks!

This place is horrible. The owner is a complete asshole, don’t believe these other reviews. He takes the workers tips, pays them below minimum wage and insults them constantly. He had a teenage kid who he would make fun of in front of the customers to embarrass them. He doesn’t pay for the training which is something you should legally do and takes some money out of their pay for tax purposes. The poor kid he always insulted wasn’t there one day and when I asked the owner what happened he said he fired him. I saw the kid at another job a week later and it turns out that he quit because the owner didn’t give him the weekend off, even when he said he would two weeks prior. I hate these owners who treat their workers like shit. I have no clue how this place stays in business, the food is shit, service is god awful, and the owners a greedy asshole. I’m amazed it’s stayed alive so long. The owner isn’t even Hank, it’s some other dude named Mohson, he just keeps the name Hanks Pizza for the publicity.

BBQ Chicken and Pesto Chicken Calzone was quite delicious. The service was sincere. I felt like I was in Hawaii, that same laid back and genuine experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit!

Pizza is amazing! Was driving from Inland Empire to come watch air planes near the pizza shop and decided to eat here, couldn’t be happier with the quality of the food.

Ok, this place is officially done! I’ve taken the menu out of the menu drawer and I will never be eating here again. I ordered after not eating here for 6 months and things have changed. I got the «hot wings» which looked like raw wings just removed from their container lightly brushed with sauce. When I called to ask how they were cooked, they responded that they are baked in some sort of oven. They literally looked like they were still raw, they were cooked on the inside, but white with no color on the outside. These are not the crispy deep fried wings you expect. Then there’s the garlic cheese bread, it had a bread mold spot on the back, this is silly. They stated the bread was made yesterday, why do I have mold? They brought another out to my place and apologized. I think I will pass in the future, this place has all the signs of being out of business in the next 12 months if things don’t change.

Had dinner delivered to the RV park. Who puts vinegar on a BLT? It was horrible. That was my wife’s disaster. I ordered an Italian Sausage. Picture something that resembles meat, but with no flavor at all! It was like a marinara sad which with cheese and meat byproduct as filler. The pizza was mostly sauce with a little bit of cheese. The only saving grace was the descent chocolate and cheesecake.

Food is fresh and delicious. Service fast and friendly. I always have the mini pizza. Great deal at $ 6.

Went here. It’s pretty divey. I suppose the interior — and lack of care therefor — should’ve been plenty warning, but I continued on anyway. I ordered the buffalo wings only, so I can’t speak to their pizza (though one reviewer below apparently found «bodily fluids» on his pizza, so I’m not ever going back, but I digress…). The wings tasted old; old as in they had a musty/​stale/​raw taste/​flavor (it’s weird; think of the way chicken wings smell when raw — that’s the flavor they had, of course they were cooked and tossed in sauce, though). I could taste the raw smell? Anyway, wasn’t impressed and so, in consideration of my own experience, and that of «bodily fluids» guy below, never-​ever going back and would not recommend this place to a starving animal.
Note: To «bodily fluids» guy’s credit, I saw the now deleted comment the owner put on his review, whereon owner apologized and promised to make it right. He apparently deleted his comment. Maybe he meant to inbox the guy. Can’t trust these folks. So gross.

Meh

Picked up pizza to go and waited a few minutes. The White pizza adding chicken was absolutely amazing. Cooked perfect and lots of Ricotta cheese! Also ordered a S&S pizza, delicious toppings including garlic. Will return when in the area. Thanks Hanks Pizza!

So, here we are moving out of El Segundo when I decide to try Hank’s pizza. It always looked divey from the outside but we sat inside and not only got waited on like a proper restaurant but the pizza was GREAT! One bite and it reminded me of the pizza I grew up eating in Chicago. I will definitely be eating more of their pizzas.

Haven’t been here since the mid ‘90s.
Went to Westchester High School back in the day and this was our hang out.
The food and service are still very good. Always a good choice for lunch!

The owner makes his food with LOVE!

I came to LA for the weekend and wanted some good pizza. I ordered this pizza hoping for something good. AVOID this place. The sauce is yucky and the cheese is overwhelming.

I love a lot of kinds of food, and am often not picky, but my only meal from here actually offended me.
The worst food I remember having in my life. Hands down.
Sorry I can’t do less than one star. I guess the one star is for the amount of food they give you for the price. But more plates and boxes filled with soft material that resembles food, but tastes like paint should not get that star.
Maybe the pizza is better. Or something, that would allow for this place to survive.
Wife’s Alfredo tasted like white fence paint. Or to her, like nothing at all. Adding salt did not help. Salty paint flavor.
I got the ½ spaghetti and ½ ravioli with pesto. The pesto tasted as if it were made with lawn trimmings instead of basil. The ravioli was NOT cheese as expected. I no longer eat meat, so my bad for assuming it would be cheese, but what that was in the middle was more like ground mushrooms with tendons. It tasted horrible and the texture was worse.
Thinking I could survive as I ate the Anti Oxidant calzone I got to save for lunch the next day was a big mistake. Tons of raw garlic and under-​cooked dough much was another assault to my mouth, as it tasted as if it was made with paper mache waiting to dry.
The garlic bread that came with dinner was all I could eat as the flavor was edible, but was like chewing rubber.
I hope this was an off day for them, but I cannot take the risk of finding out.

WORSE FOOD EVER!!! MADE THIS HUNGRY PERSON SAD !!! :(Chicken looked and tasted very old and had been sitting around long enough that it doesn’t actually taste like chicken anymore… it had a weird taste like when my mom had leftovers from two weeks ago. there was this weird after taste D: luckily, so used to my mom tricks, my stomach can handle it but I didn’t attempt it to finish it. BTW I ordered a chicken Alfredo meal .the sauce didn’t have a taste (but just imagine a mayo texture like but a crisco oil taste) from this all I ate was the broccoli. please don’t go here. unless your looking to harm your stomach, it’s a terrible place. :(

If you eat the pizza or the garlic cheese bread as soon as it’s out of the oven… it’s heavenly in your mouth!
We’ve decide it’s just average when you bring it home =(

Baked potato with broccoli and chicken is a must try! And their mini cheese pizza is always bomb!

Anti Oxidant calzone is really good, but you better like some garlic! Pizza crust is a little thick to be true NYC. Delivery experience was great. Finally, a delivery person that didn’t make me think of a Jim Carrey character.

Don’t recommend unless you want to be sick. Felt great until I ate here for lunch and was sick the rest of the afternoon.
Amore’s is much better and comparable prices… staff is friendlier too.
