Waited 40 minutes on a Saturday for our food. Staff was okay, not particularly friendly. Food was mediocre at best. Won't be back.

Very homey. The people are friendly. My ribeye was cooked perfectly. It had the right amount of char and smoke with a buttery texture that melted in my mouth. I'm a steak snob and that was the best steak I've had. Even from Fleming's. The Lima beans had no flavor or even salt. But the fries and toast were fresh and good. My husband had the catfish. The pieces were huge and seasoned very well. Worth the 45 minute trip. Will be returning.

My parents and I came here for dinner on a Friday night. The place was packed, which made me think the food must be *amazing*, right? Wrong. First off, the atmosphere reminded me of a combination between the flea market and cracker barrel, and to top it off their wifi network was down, I'm guessing so that people can't write bad reviews while they'rethere. Tacky plastic plants and dusty old decor greeted us as we took our seats. We waited an hour for our food, which I was hoping meant that it was going to be fresh and delicious, but sadly that was not the case. Their food would be better suited for a retirement home or school cafeteria. I ordered the rib plate with fried okra and cole slaw, which for a place called The Hickory Chip should be a solid choice. Nothing tasted like it was seasoned at all. I'm pretty sure their dry rub was just salt and pepper. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, I'll give them that, but most of the meat was so chewy and dry it reminded me of pork jerky. Only about half of the meat was actually edible. I had to drown it in barbecue sauce (which was actually quite good, but sadly wasn't used while they were actually smoking the ribs or else they'd actually be tender and flavorful). The fried okra was cold, bland, and mushy. And the cole slaw? The cole slaw was an insult to generations upon generations of southern women everywhere. I don't know why, but they *pureed* the it. It, too, was bland, had the consistency of baby food, and wasn't even cold. I called it cole slop. I literally could drink it through a straw. I'm pretty sure the tears i shed were the most flavorful thing about it. The meal was served with a toasty, buttery slice of texas toast, which truly was the best thing about the entire meal. The place has potential, I'll give it that, but you can tell nobody there puts pride in their work. Do better, guys. There's no reason a place like that should serve such underwhelming food in such a tacky atmosphere. I feel like I got Hickory jipped.

Went with some friends. My food was well, but two out of the four had cold plates. The waitress was quick to pick up on the disappointment of my friends, and brought new plates. Unfortunately, the tater tots were horrible both times (overcooked and drenched in oil)

We were a party of four with catfish and hamburger steak dinners everything was cooked to order, hot and delicious. An abundant amount that we were able to bring home leftovers. Service was great as well, definitely will be back soon and will give great recommendations.
