It's always a beautiful place to have dinner. The staff could not possibly be any nicer than they are. The bar is lovely. The cocktails are beautiful. The escargot appetizer was not great. Even if you appreciated the unusual way that they make it, the bread was very dry and stale And I told the server. The scallop fettuccine was delicious. However, the scallops were quite a bit heavy on the salt side. Other than that, everything else was wonderful and they always have the best desserts.
We went to Vintage House to celebrate our anniversary. The ambiance was very nice. We had the sweetheart seat which was lovely. Unfortunately the noise level took away from our conversation. The meals were realtively small but tasty although not stellar. Our server was attentive. Overall we enjoyed the Vintage House but it was not all we hoped it would be for the price we paid. I would go back but be aware of the noise and meal choices.
My husband & I visited VH to celebrate a very special 17th Wedding Anniversary. We ordered a bottle of wine an appetizer, two full meals. Our appetizer, wine and salads came out as expected. Then a time went on and still no sign of food. Finally our server came out and said there was a mix up in the kitchen. At this point I'm okay with it, but my husband is growing upset because we had waited this long already and we had other plans for the evening that I did not realize. I was just hopeful the food could be out anytime. An hour and a half goes by and we decided to request the check. We paid for our wine they did not charge us for the appetizer. I was in tears because I wanted it to be special. Our whole night was wasted with high hopes of a fine dining experience. The manager noticed we decided to leave and came out with a bag of our dinners as carry out and did not charge us and apologized and gave us a coupon for next time. When we got back to our hotel we noticed our meals were super tiny and it made us thankful we didn't have to spend $200 on this. All in all the restaurant made it right, but we still wished we had a better experience on our anniversary. This Broke my heart.
Vintage House never disappoints. From their cocktails to their desserts everything is delicious. And the staff is super professional but still friendly. We'll be back
The ambiance, food, cocktails, and service was fantastic. Josh was really great, his recommendations were fantastic and service impeccable. Even though we were the last patrons because we had a late reservation, we never felt rushed and were even given a tour of this beautiful old house after dinner. Will absolutely go back and will be ordering the Betty White cocktail again!!!
The food was amazing and the staff was even better! Love how our waitress Makenzie noticed it was my brother's birthday and brought him free desert that was also delicious!
Great place for a date night. Our meal was good and the server was good. Drink orders took a while and the cocktails were the best but overall nice restaurant. We will be back.
We should have listened to the people that told us that the service at The Vintage House was lacking. The last time we were at the VIntage House was New Year's Eve of this year. The service was bad and the food was not much better. We have been loyal to the Vintage House for many years, but last night's dinner may have been the last!! I really can't say dinner, because after two hours, we had not been served our dinner. We had a 6:00 reservation. We arrived at 5:50. The restaurant was not busy. We were the third table seated. We placed a drink order which we received in a timely manner. We ordered appetisers, part of which arrived somewhat later. We also ordered rolls which were delivered, once again by the manager, after reminding the waiter that they had been ordered. Salads came about fifteen minutes later, one of which was not correct. After the salads arrived, it was as if we had been totally forgotten. At the one hour and 50 minute point. we called the waiter over to tell him that we wanted the check. Never having gotten our food, we paid the check for what we had been served and left. At this point, I really do not know if we will ever go back. We have been long standing customers of Vintage House, but last night may have been the final time!!
Dining at Vintage House is always a highly enjoyable experience! The servers are personable and professional, the food outstanding. I am always open to a new cocktail and the elder old fashioned with Empress gin was a winner!
Perfect spot for our anniversary dinner: Lovely classic cocktails, beautiful plating for each excellent course, and attentive, knowledgable service. Easy to see why, several decades later, Vintage House is STILL a must-go landmark restaurant in Hickory.

We visited Vintage House to celebrate our friends 40th birthday. I must say they were absolutely amazing throughout the whole entire process. Someone was available for me to drop off a cake prior to our dining reservation, we were greeted warmly when we arrived, and the staff was helped in taking pictures of our group together. The food and presentation was just perfect. Would definitely return again when I'm in the area. Thank you for an amazing evening celebrating our friends birthday!!!
Celebrated our anniversary there. Everything was excellent. Staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and to celebrate our special occasion. Food was excellent. This is the same restaurant I proposed to my wife and we will continue to celebrate our anniversary there.
Great service all around, impressive place... will continue to be a place we go to for special occasions.
They somehow managed to be a classy fine dining establishment without being pretensious. Food presentation was as expected in a high dollar restaurant but portions were large enough to actually satisfy. A+all around
Food and service were good. I ordered an Old Fashioned with tequila instead of bourbon. They upcharged me double. Said their only reposado tequila was Herraduro. A nice tequila but not double the price. Manager never came to explain. Just a $25 cocktail that I didn't expect! Unacceptable! Never again!!
