We couldn’t have chosen a better place to dine for a reunion family dinner. The ambiance was spectacular, the food was delectable. What made this meal even more special was Brenda’s intuitive service, kindness and smile while waiting on our table. It’s people like her...and her warmth that make dining experiences worthwhile. Thank you The Hickory Restaurant & Lounge.More

Although it is a very close distance from work and house, it has been difficult to visit The Hickory. Main reason is that having a Lounge it is always packed in the evening. That said we decided to go there on a week day for...lunch. Good choice as it stands! No many customers around so service was quite quick and we really enjoyed the food. Price-wise it's on the upper side but the quality was very good. Highly recommended.More

The food was so bitter, the service was poor...we were attended to by a waiter called Abdul who was so rude and impolite, and he happened to interchange our orders. He gave us what we hadn't ordered for and he refused to change the orders....Poor service all the wayMore

Nice setting and ambiance, good variety of choices in the menu. There are also monthly specials. Food was very good and the portions are generous. Good value for money for an upscale restaurant. Service was attentive and efficient. We will go again.

The environment is very good and the music also. The service was very bad. Our lunch delayed one and a half hour after our order. The side dish( french fries, croquettes) came 15 minutes later. Some customers who came after us were served before us....The restaurant was not crowded to excuse the delay. We asked for bread twice and it never came. The taste of the food was ok.More
