“A hidden gem. It is not a sit in restaurant but the food is excellent. I love their desserts. My personal favorite is their livermush sandwich with slaw, onions and mustard. I dare you to try it. How do you all make the livermush so crispy. I can't do that at home without burning it.”

“My mother in law and her boyfriend brought my husband and I here right after we got married 😂 so, I may be biased because now it holds a special place in my heart. But, the food was good and the service was fast. I really had no complaints. They have a kids menu so my daughter was able to get her normal chicken and fries. Kid-friendliness: Kid menu was available with all the favs”

“I ate there yesterday 9/7/22. I ordered the 18oz ribeye which I had to bring half home because I ate too much appetizer. Best steak EVER I've had eating out. Kudos to the chef, you made my day. 10 stars.”

“Everything was fine - second time dining here since it was purchased by new owners. Food was same quality or maybe a bit better. Two small issues - 1) the booth we were seated at was a bit warm for 2 in our party - very still air. 2) Flat percentage tipping recommendations on the payment terminal screen includes sales tax. Just a heads up for those who only tip on food & drink.”

“My husband and I are “foodies” and we absolutely LOVE the Vintage House in Hickory. We would rank this restaurant as one of the top in NC. Every appetizer, entree, and dessert are delicious and beautifully plated. The atmosphere is upscale without being stuffy. Prices are in line with the food and service received. All staff are excellent, and we particularly appreciate the warm welcome we always receive from Jack. We are very thankful to have such an excellent restaurant in our hometown!”

We are all human and make mistakes, but Im a firm believer it’s how you handle the mistakes thats leave the impression on a customer. Please support our local businesses, especially Cafe Gouda!”

“We love Hardee’s, but we were very disappointed on our last visit, we ordered 10 piece chicken tenders, we got home and we had very small pieces. We called the store and the employee stated that they decided to fry up some end pieces. Very disappointed, not enough to serve the 2 of us, thank you .”

“I love Whataburger but this location is struggling with the hype. The bun was dry and hard. The staff is having a hard time keeping up with the demand. Dinning room was dirty and soda machine was tasting flat. I hope it gets better because I’ve seen the quality of some Texas locations tank.”

“I decided to stop in to grab a cold brew during a grocery run on Saturday 5/17/25 around 12:30 in the afternoon. Per normal, the Target Starbucks line was rather long, but I was luckily shopping kid free that day and in no rush to scurry back home, so I waited patiently (all the mamas understand). I would guesstimate I waited between 10-15 minutes and the entire time only one person was working, a very tall, dark haired man. I wish I had gotten his name because I would love to give him the biggest shout out! The whole time I was in line I watched him seamlessly take multiple orders and make their drinks all in a line like a bar tender. He never messed up, never faltered, and pumped out coffee to the masses like a pro. You know how us white girls can get about our sugar flavored drinks, and he met every single one of us in line with a big smile and welcomed greeting. He held polite conversations as he worked and even made sure each person got their correct order handed directly to them, instead of just slamming them on the counter for you to find. I'm not sure where you found them gem of a gentleman, but during the time I was there, he made each and every person feel like their order was important and even the grumpiest Karen seemed to leave in a better mood (that may have also been because they finally got their caffeine fix for the day). He made sure when taking your order you didn't miss anything, and would double check to make sure you have everything you want when he handed off the goods. He'd even offer to fix your drink if you have any issues. I know it's stressful being the only one working (I'm hoping there was a coworker on break and Starbucks didn't just fail this man by having him work alone on a Saturday), and I hope he knows how amazing he is to take a deep breath, grit his teeth, and keep on pushing through as if nothing was the matter. I don't even know if my cold brew tasted good or not because the only flavor I could taste was pride. Whoever his mama is, should be proud.”

“We live next to a Taco Bell by a certain baseball stadium in town. We purposely drive to this one that’s 15 minutes further because the night crew is very fast, never had a mistake with an order, and including the drive back, it would still be faster than the one closest to us. Y’all rule 🥲”

“i went there and their drink machine was messed up. i reported it trying to help and the cashier said others had reported the drinks being messed up also. an older lady that I assume was the manager comes out with the rudest most unprofessional attitude. she literally took a cup and announced "carbonation" then dumped it out then did this over and over for the whole machine instead of just tasting the problem. manager or not rude, lazy employee. not going back to pack $16+ dollars just to have an employee make a scene at the drink machine they wanna charge $3 for. keep your rotten attitudes and overpriced crap I feel bad for the young people working there if that's how things go in front of customers”
