We had an excellent meal there. Atmosphere is really cute. What kind of cabinet like a lodge -exposed walls. It's very woodsy feeling. We came here as a party at five to send off our friend to Maryland We started with pretzel bites. The forst batch came out really brown. They looked over cooked. They didnt taste great. We had a new batch put in. That came out just as disappointed. Would not recommend these to anyone. Save your calories. We also learned we came on all you can eat rib night... Which we didn't know was a thing. I'm letting you all know it's a thing and it's a good thing!!! For $25 (which is less than the normal rib meal) You can eat all the ribs you want and get two sides! That's quite a bargain- come hungry. The ribs honestly fall off the bone they're so tender and they're not slathered and sauce. They do have some sauce on them, but the sauce is perfectly seasoned and it doesn't feel like you need any additional sauce also is an excessively sugary which I really like I was quite surprised as I'm not a big huge rib person. I would get the ribs again. Id pay full price for these ribs too. They were legit good. You get two sides with this meal. I chose a salad and a baked potato Well, I chose poorly- both the salad and the potato were actually good. However, the salad was huge and I was full after eating it. I shouldn't of ordered the potato. Its bery basic. I should've ordered the green beans. The green beans are crazy good!they give you a lot. they're also super fresh, delicious and seasoned... I know this because my husband got them and he focused on ribs -so he didn't eat his green beans, which meant I got to eat them later when we got home. Nom nom nom nom. They have a shrimp pasta carbonara which my friend ordered and holy smokes is that huge and delicious looking. She says that and the chicken parm are amazing and her go to when she doesnt get ribs. I will definitely be back Hickory House. Thanks for a great meal and a great evening.

I marked this place down here, so in the future l like to tried it, and....today is the day!…read more They just opened at noon, I walked in like 12:05. I'm the only one there, but everything is ready. I like that. The place is really nice, all their tables are very big, since I'm the only one there, they seated me but damn....thats a table of 4, even tho the table is big enough for 6, so you can imagine I'm by myself, I'm like a little Mickey Mouse in Grand Canyon National Park. lol If you haven't been to Grand Canyon, you should go. Wait...the minute!!! Focus here... Anyway, even tho I'm the only one at the restaurant, the server still very nice, and pay more attention to me, you know how sometimes servers don't pay much attention since is only one table, not here. All you can eat like $19 and change, order it on the menu, and within 2 mins, they will bring your food to your table I always love hot pot, check out some of the photos, delicious. Yum! I drive by here at night before, this place get super busy, but lunch time don't seem much, I guess weekend a little more busier Overall, 5 out of 5

Vibes: adorable panda greets you as soon as you walk in. There are many tables that can accomodate…read more4-6 people at a time for hot pot, K BBQ, or both. There are "flames" at the tops of the walls separating the booths that give the place a warm and welcoming yet cool and trendy vibe (safe to touch - it's just fog and lighting tricks). Child-friendly as well. Service: attentive server who was checking on us frequently. He did seem like he was running around quite a bit, but he was hardworking and friendly. Food: There are AYCE hot pot and Korean BBQ options available here. They have a pretty large menu to choose from, including scallops, mussels, a variety of meats and veggies. Their spring rolls were a tasty appetizer to add to our feast. The buffet section also had a tasty crab salad, kimchi, and a variety of desserts to choose from. There was an ice cream cooler with vanilla, strawberry, or chocolate hershey's ice cream to enjoy. One unique aspect was the sauce station - you can still DIY your sauces, but jf your creative side needs a little inspiration, they have recipes to make your own sauce. The house special shacha sauce recipe was my favorite.

We opted to try the pulled pork as a sandwich, the max 'n cheese, coleslaw, and cornbread, along with the sweet whiskey sauce, which was described as their traditional option. Everything was quite delicious! The pork was incredibly tender, the max 'n cheese definitely had an extra zip from the herbs and spices, the cornbread was nice and moist, and the sweet whiskey sauce had a little kick. Service was friendly and efficient. We will definitely be keeping this adorable joint in mind for the future!

My husband and I went in during restaurant week. They had the best menu I saw for $60/person…read morebecause we do not eat pork. We were not disappointed! The food was great, but even better was the impeccable service. Our server, Frank, went above and beyond and made us feel like we were the only couple there (in a busy restaurant week Saturday)! The amount of special care he took during our time there to explain the different dishes and wish us for our anniversary, I cannot relate any other service being this level. Now, for the food: 1st course: shrimp cocktail and lobster bisque I preferred the shrimp cocktail because the bisque was a bit on the sweeter side for me with the corn. Frank even provided some horseradish on the side for the shrimp, which were huge. 2nd course: steak on a bowl and salmon Both proteins cooked to perfection (steak medium rare and salmon medium) and both were based on top of perfectly paired sauces. It was a great meal without feeling overstuffed. 3rd course: creme brulee and frozen mud pie Both were good, but the frozen mud pie was colossal. We did not even finish 1/4 of it at the restaurant. Took it to go and it was just as great out of the freezer the next day. It could serve 4 people easily. Bonus: Frank made sure to make our night out even more special by providing a whole extra dessert on the house in honor of our anniversary. My son likes chocolate cake, so we got that to go. This was very unexpected as we were there for restaurant week, which already had dessert included. Even with how busy it was due to restaurant week, the pacing of the meal was perfect, our waters were full, and we were checked on multiple times. We will definitely be back here and definitely seek out Frank for his exceptional service!

The food has potential.... I think it would've been pretty good had we not gone an hour before…read morethey closed. Half of the Jerk chicken was burnt, tough and dried. The ribs were dried and lacked the seasoning that supposed to be on them. The Mac n cheese was dry with clumps of salt in some areas. My child loves Mac n cheese and she did not like it from here. The baked beans were ok, but had the driest pieces of bark/meat in them. The only food that came out the way it should've were the smoked wings, those were really good. In conclusion, do not go towards the end of the day because you may receive their lowest quality of food. This was not a good impression for someone visiting for the first time. $72 pretty much wasted and I asked if it was too late to order and the guy said no. If you can't serve quality food at the end of the day, they should've been forthcoming about it.
