    "Roasted Salmon"
    Luke B.

    Pretty good wine, great wine slushies, friendly staff and owners and nice aesthetic. However the food is insane. I ordered what the menu said was a "roasted salmon" and what I got was cold salmon in a can (priced at $26). I wanna love the place but that was just bizarre.

    Was passing through with my dogs. Other local establishments falsely advertised their hours and outdoor seating availability. This place was super nice to me and welcomed us. I can't attest to the food but if you're in Hickory I would stop here first.

    They sell my perfect moscato here! I love the atmosphere, the people and the wines! Cute outdoor and indoor seating if wanted :)

    By far, the best place on the square in downtown Hickory. Great atmosphere, service, and selection.

    This bar gets a lot of talk, but I honestly don't see the appeal. The crowd is mostly younger,…read morewhich is fine, but the energy feels weird--like everyone's trying to make something happen, but nothing ever does. The music isn't too loud, so you can hold a conversation, but it still somehow feels lifeless. Not much going on inside besides people standing around looking bored. But the real problem? The police are ALWAYS there. Every night out turns into a waiting game--how long before the blue lights pull up? It kills the whole mood. You can't relax, and it honestly feels more like a sting operation than a night out. Mediocre drinks, uncomfortable atmosphere, and too much drama for a place that's supposed to be "lowkey." Hard pass.

    I was a loyal Dive Bar patron for a few months--after moving home from college, I was elated to see…read morethat Hickory finally had a good nightlife option. I recommended Dive Bar to all of my friends, and always mentioned how safe, affordable, and fun their business is. Tonight, a friend from college and I were excited to go to the Dive Bar--I hyped up the experience to her astronomically and assured her that it would be the best bar she'd ever been to (bonus points for the arcade games!). Sadly, upon entering, my friend was turned away for having a "fake ID." Her ID is in no way facetious--it is up to date, came straight from the DMV, and boasts the same birth date on her birth certificate. It is also the permanent plastic copy, not the temporary paper one from last year! Instead of trying to scan it or even electing to consult a police officer on the corner right outside the door, she was turned away, leading us to find another bar to give our business to for the night. Her ID is vertical, but this is because she renewed her license prior to its expiration on her 21st birthday--since she wasn't 21 yet and didn't want to risk having an expired license to wait and get a horizontal copy, she was given a vertical (but STILL VALID) driver's license. I am incredibly disappointed with our experience tonight, and will sadly have to rescind my doting on the Dive Bar in all future conversations regarding Hickory nightlife. Ridiculous!

    My husband and I went to the Inferno Tavern, Newton NC for the first time tonight. It was…read morefantastic!! I'd like to start off saying that it is almost impossible to find a place that will make an espresso martini in and around this area. I asked for one first thing and the bartender had no issues making one. I was pleasantly surprised. The espresso martini was SPOT ON!! DELICIOUS!! My husband enjoyed his coconut rum and Coke so much, he got two!! My second drink was off of their "winter cocktail" menu. This menu was unique and intriguing. I can't for the life of me remember the name of the drink I got, but I promise most people based on description would pass. DON'T pass!! The drink was served warm with wine, rum, and spices. It taste like an apple cider or a flavorful tea, I could not taste the alcohol, that makes it a true cocktail in my opinion it also makes it dangerous!! hahahaha!! Move over Long Island ice tea!! We both got burgers. Both flame grilled I believe. Cooked perfectly and soooooooooooooo good!! My hubby got the inferno burger. If you love spicy, This one is for you!! It's not for the faint of heart. I chose the American burger. It was everything you want in a classic burger and it's my new fav place for a burger!! I chose a wedge salad for my side. It was large for a side. I only wish they had charred/grilled the wedge just to step it up a notch. Hubby got the pub chips.... tasty and plentifu!! Overall food was delicious. The staff were very nice and attentive. The building is beautiful and their vintage adds, mural, and gargoyles are a delightful and unique touch to the decor. I hope to see more the next time we go. We WILL be back for more!!

    I would give it a zero star if I could. Went to try Inferno. Had to seat myself. No big deal. But…read morewaiting 10 minutes and not one person acknowledged us. Not even a middle finger. Another customer arrived and was taken care of before us. Not very good if you're trying to be a successful restaurant. This place will not make it if they continue like this. Very unorganized. Ambiance was kind of low. Felt like I was at a funeral. Unfortunately I can't comment on the food.
