“My wife and I love The Fourk. We visit Hickory often. I'm originally from NY, on our first visit our Waiter was Dave. Great guy and awesome conversations. We missed him this last visit, however, Tasha was also a fantastic Waitress. We loved The Burrata, and my lady was delighted with The Jumbo Scallops. I just can't stray away from your Fourk Chop. I'll try something else next time.“

“We went here for a late lunch. I'm the only one in my family who needs a gf menu, no one else has any restrictions. We ALL loved our meals and desserts. Highly recommend. Food was good and the young lady working the counter was super friendly. Wish we lived closer and could visit more often.“

“Had Reuben. Served without thousand island dressing. It was dry even though it had sourkraut . The server said this is a signature dish. Really... where is the meat? Can you spare some. They raised prices but you get less meat no dressing. NO QUALITY. WONT BE BACK“

“Just enjoyed my favorite Windy City Grill sandwich: the BELT! Just a BLT with egg and mayo on toasted bread. Go check them out! They have been serving great fast food, cooked to order, in Hickory since 1973.“

“I have been coming here for years especially on Thursdays and Fridays!! I will just say I have never had a bad experience while eating here!! The food is good but wanted to brag a little on the waitress Lindsay that seems to always be there when I eat. She is always busy either serving tables or answering that phone but always checks on everyone!!! Is always super nice when she is able to have a 2 min conversation. When she isn’t there I seem to have issues with getting drinks or my order is wrong but that won’t deter me from coming back!!“

“We happened upon fresh chef and decided to stop and try it. The service was amazing, atmosphere is great, food was AMAZING we had gumbo and shrimp with grits which is something that’s usually hit or miss most places, but they nailed it and we will definitely be back. Shout out to Elaine who was so friendly!!!!“

“They know how to make some food!!!!’ Literally some of the best. I’ll definitely go back!! Recommend for sure! 👍🏾“

“This Culvers was extremely impressive. We stopped by for lunch on our way to Asheville. When I say they were busy, that may be an understatement. Line out the door, drive thru lined up, parking lot FULL. Being that we had received a Culver's gift card for christmas, we decided to go ahead and stay. The staff was extremely friendly. We waited about 10 minutes in line to order considering the amount of people. Then only had to wait about 15 minutes for our hot and fresh food to be at our table. I have experienced longer wait times at other Culver's in an environment that was not a fraction of the amount of busy they were. The food was absolutely phenomenal. I want to give props to the crew working. They were on it! Everything was clean, even the drink station! As stated before, very impressed with how this location is ran. Like a smooth sailing ship. Great job guys!“

“Manager, Kelsey(I sure hope I got her name, correct) extremely customer oriented, and she’s professional, yet array of sunshine!\n\nFood it’s always great\n\nWe’ve eaten there many times and have yet to be disappointed\n\nMichael has been our server on several occasions and he is a five star employee for sure!!\n\nHe makes the visit even more enjoyable!“

“Our fine dining experience at Willow Creek Inn was absolutely phenomenal. We were celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary, and Chef Mansour Zand made it one of the most memorable evenings we’ve ever had. It feels like stepping into the chef’s own private dining room — an intimate, personal experience set in a beautiful cottage tucked away in the woods. The property itself is stunning, adding to the charm and magic of the evening. We highly recommend trusting Chef Zand completely and allowing him to guide the night. Simply relax, enjoy, and let him create an unforgettable experience.“

“I had been wanting to eat at a real country kitchen food, had been in some but haven’t found one that I satisfied.
Today, I found one: this Granny’s Country Kitchen in Claremont, NC
The ambiance was casual, family oriented, and food was very yummy, service by a young, pretty and efficient Cami, the reasonable prices made an amazing lunch!
I told my husband that I wished this restaurant was in our neighborhood.
Highly recommend to those who travel to this part, it’s a must stop for lunch or dinner, besides a great meal, we support the local as well.“

“Everything is fresh!!! Made fresh after you order!!“

“AMAZING steaks!! The flavor on them was unmatched. It really impressed my wife and that's hard to do with a steak. My wife said that she's found a new favorite steakhouse. The waitress was extremely nice and knew the menu inside and out. The atmosphere was outstanding! We will definitely be back to try some of the other menu items. I in highly recommend coming here for a date night or just to go out for a nice steak. 10/10 would go back!!“

“Thomas Hammond, manager , great service, GREAT food. Best in North Carolina“

“drove an hour for the fettuccine Alfredo ...best I've ever had“

“The owner Augustine and his entire staff are incredible. They're professional and efficient. Love the seafood, lightly breaded. Good ambiance and restrooms are clean.
I love that they give you your drink to go too. All waitresses/waiters are nice. And the menu is easy to navigate with reasonable prices. I will come here for as long as he owns the restaurant! I love the calamari, it's full pieces not just rings. Everything is good on the menu. Neat how they have a drive thru also!“

“We had a great meal here, was my daughters birthday. Our waiter, Drew, was awesome! He was friendly, funny, even did a few magic tricks for the birthday girl. He made her day special!“

“I am so happy that my indecisive self decided to give this place a try. I have not been impressed with most of the establishments in the area. My wife and I usually travel to Asheville for good food. On a Sunday there weren’t a lot of options. We decided to give backstreets a try. It’s been years since I ate here and didn’t remember. She got Cajun chicken pasta and I got possibly the best Rueben I’ve had in years. I’d say the pasta is better than Cheesecake Factory. The only negative thing was the judgy couple sitting beside us. However, they cannot control who comes through their doors. The service was excellent and I’m so happy I found a place I am happy with locally.“

“Great service great food We will be back“

“Great food, I try to eat at Sharon's atleast once a week. Just wish they were open later than 2:00“

“Had a lunch meeting with Caleb Hart over at CertaPro Painters of Hickory/ Catawba Valley/ High Country on the 3rd here at Crescent Moon Cafe. I ordered the Greek Chicken wrap, yo - your boy was very pleased. I asked the waiter what side to get he said potato salad. Lights out. Get in, good food, good service, and on your way. 5 stars. Exactly what I didn't know I wanted.“

“I'm from the north and I was told you have to go to a waffle House. So I did. I wasn't disappointed. The service was really nice and the food was good at a good price. I see why it's so popular. I had a old school diner feel to it. Which was nice.“

“Had to find a brewery for our day trip out to Hickory and happy we chose Olde Hickory. I loved the aesthetic of the carved out bar in the brewery. Parking was right around the corner - you could definitely miss it if you weren’t looking for it. Not a ton of parking, but it’s a pretty small bar area. I love that they had several TVs up and were playing college football and basketball. That’s a way to my heart. Everyone was very friendly. I had a flight and my wife had the Christmas Ale. I think of the four beers of my flight, I really liked one, liked two others, and didn’t love the last but beer is subjective to the taste buds of the drinker.

I’m glad we went and next time we are in town we will try to stop in again to try some more beers.“

“Our experience was awesome. Elijah our server was great. Honestly one of the best servers we have had it a long time. Our food was perfect and the staff all seemed to be helping each other. Great place to eat if your ever in Hickory NC.“

“Everyone was very friendly and welcoming including the staff :) Great place to wind down after a long day to just relax and have some fun. Will definitely have to come back in the future!“

“Love eating at Don's Grill the food is good the staff is amazing they always check you to see if you need anything if you have never eaten i recommend anyone to try there food so good keep up the good work Don's Grill.“
