Exceptional Dining Experience From Beginning to End. We arrived at peak dinner hour. The establishment was prepared with plenty of seating for the hungry folks waiting. The hostess was extremely friendly and gave us a waiting time of only 15 minutes. Quite surprised, and unsure they would be able to make their 15 minute wait time stick I started timing. They made it with time to spear, 11 minutes and we were being seated! In 8 minutes from being seated we already had our drinks and beautiful dinner salads. The salads were refreshing. The pleasing crisp lettuce was topped with fresh onion, tomato, cheese, and crispy chow mein noodles. It had just the right amount of blue cheese dressing. The dressing was absolutely delicious. Not sure if it is a house dressing, however, the creamy mixture had wonderful chunks of blue cheese perfectly spread throughout. While enjoying our salad the appetizer of onion straws with a house BBQ sauce was delivered. The crispy breading on the straws of onion, drizzled with the sweet and tangy BBQ sauce dance on my tongue. When our dinner arrived I was so excited. I ordered the pick two. The sirloin steak cooked medium rare did not disappoint. It was cooked perfectly. The savory mouth watering juices sparkled with every bite I took. No need for any steak sauce here as the beautifully seasoned meat did its job. The BBQ ribs just fell apart. The thick season rubbed meat was melt in your mouth heaven with the drinkable sauce that was slathered on it! The baked sweet potato was precisely cooked with the precise amount of cinnamon honey butter to mix through. My husband cleaned his plate so I'd say the award winning porterhouse lived up to its name! He complimented the chef by saying it was the best meal we'd shared in ages. Our absolutely delightful server Alexis K. never missed a beat. She was on top of our needs and served us with just the right amount of check ins and end of dinner conversation. Amazing job to her and incredibly phenomenal job being done in their kitchen. I highly recommend the Hickory house! The prices are what you'd expect for a steak house and the incredible food is worth every penny. You can't go wrong dinning here! Thank you Hickory House! We will definitely be back in the future!

Ordered carryout from here for the first time. The restaurant looks very inviting and clean. Certainly would like to eat there sometime. Food was excellent tasting but ribs were not hot, not even warm. Feel like they boxed them first then took time to cook other items. Would have been 5 stars if it has been served hot.

My wife and I don't get to this side of town often, but when we do, we always try to get to the Hickory House. We've had a variety of items off their menu, but I recommend that everyone go with the ribs. They are delicately delicious.

Came here a while back now, hadn’t had the opportunity to review this location sooner. The food was satisfactory, the steaks were cooked to order and sizable. Quality was toward the top end of choice options, which was responsible for the pricing. The broccoli and mac and cheese were great! The food menu itself was a bit cluttered but manageable, the drink menu looked thrown together in 5 minutes and failed to mention any pricing, and was not up to date. The old fashioned I had was underwhelming, a solid 2/5. Nothing special. She had what they called a “New Fashion” which was a creamsicle sort of cocktail, it was decent! The interior was decorated in a sort of western, classic style and fit the environment well. Overall I would recommend!

Very good food and welcoming atmosphere. The fillet and shrimp were perfectly prepared. The side salad was large and the house sweet and sour dressing with onion is a perfectly reproduced classic dressing. Our server, Nancy, was one of the best and friendliest serves I've ever had. She welcomed our family (get together with grandparents) like we were part of the restaurant family. The ribs were, I was told, fantastic. Planning to make this a frequent stop when on the area.

This is a gem.....staff was amazing.....food was delicious. Porterhouse steak cooked to order perfectly. Baby back ribs fell off the bone and sauce was very good too. Recommend this place.... we're for sure coming back.
