I asked them why cause I wanted to eat my food hot they said to prove I didn't get what I ordered.

I asked to speak with a manager then was told there manager was to busy to handle the issue. I will not be returning to this restaurant. I will be taking my business to Tosakas in Newton.

It's amazingly fresh!! And the service is great. You can feel there's a standard here. I've eaten at another seafood joint in Hickory and the best thing about that plate was the slaw. Yikes.

The food was underseasoned and bland. Uninspired. Somehow, the stuffed crab was burnt and undercooked. The shrimp and scallops were overcooked, and unseasoned. The flounder was bland, and had a hard uneven texture. The oysters were out of a can I could get for a dollar. It looked like some of the cooks were not wearing hairnets, and would come out of the back and sit in a corner. I got sick from eating and was gagging for at least an hour after leaving. I called the restaurant to warn them to check for any contamination, and the employee who spoke [supposedly a manager] said their food was fine. I've been nauseous for an hour now. Would not recommend. This places glory days are long gone, and their customers are in danger of getting food illnesses.

The food is delicious. And the service is excellent. I've eaten here 3 times now and I continue to be impressed.

I have yet to be disappointed by anything I've tried so far. I've seen many restaurants one and go in this location but I hope Mali Thai Kitchen stays here forever.

I wanted to share my experience of what happened to me on the afternoon of November 14th at a local…read morerestaurant in Lenior. Cafe 1841. I stopped into this local restaurant/bar the other day to celebrate my birthday after an appointment, and what started as a really great afternoon turned into one of the most uncomfortable experiences I've ever had. I arrived a little after 3 PM, ordered some drinks, and was enjoying myself with no issues. Around 5 PM, the owner arrived with her parents. The owner's mother walked up to me, poked me, and told me I needed to move because that was "her friend's seat" and they "always sit there." She hovered behind me, gripping the back of my chair and repeating things like, "I'm 87 years old and I have never..." without ever explaining what she meant. The whole interaction was intrusive, disrespectful, and honestly shocking. A kind woman I had met earlier went to speak with the owner. When the owner/manger came over, she explained that the woman was her mother and that they were "dealing with family stuff," as if that excused what had happened. Being told that the behavior was essentially excusable because it came from her own family made the situation feel even worse. She offered to pay for my meal or try to fix the situation, but after being poked, pressured, and essentially told that my presence didn't matter compared to their "regulars" made me feel unwelcome and even unsafe. I chose to pay my own tab and leave rather than sit there after being disrespected and physically touched by a stranger. It's disappointing, because the atmosphere and staff seemed great at first. But no customer should ever be treated like that--birthday or not--and personal family issues do not justify disrespecting or touching a guest. I hope they address this behavior in the future, because no one should have their experience ruined the way mine was.

Copper Penny Grill in Hickory was a great first experience, and we will definitely be back. The…read morefood, drinks, atmosphere, and service all exceeded our expectations. We ordered the Cedar Plank Salmon, and the bourbon bacon glaze was outstanding. We also tried the Buffalo Chicken Flatbread, which had the perfect balance of cool ranch flavor and just the right amount of spice. For drinks, we enjoyed the Bananas Foster Old Fashioned, Maple Old Fashioned, and the Gummy Flight. Each one was well-crafted and delicious. One of the highlights of this location is the waterfront setting. We requested outdoor seating and were seated on the upper-level deck overlooking the water. There was live music at the lower-level outdoor bar on Saturday night, and we could still enjoy the music from our table upstairs while taking in the view. We were seated quickly, and every staff member we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and helpful. Although Copper Penny Grill has multiple locations, the Hickory location's waterfront atmosphere makes it especially memorable. If you're looking for great food, creative cocktails, live music, beautiful views, and excellent service, Copper Penny Grill in Hickory is well worth a visit. We look forward to returning and trying more of the menu.
