Hickory House - Gahanna

The pickle fries were amazing, and both the steak and chicken were cooked to perfection. They were so good that we returned for dinner two nights in a row!

Hickory House is always a reliable choice whenever I'm in the area. They offer delicious drinks and fantastic food! Its great location in Junction made it convenient for my hotel stay, so I ended up dining there all three nights I was in town.

We had just arrived in town when we spotted your restaurant, so we hurried over before closing time. While we waited for our order, we enjoyed a drink. Oh boy, my fish sandwich was absolutely delicious, and the fries were cooked to perfection. The service was friendly, and I’ll definitely come back to try something different from the menu!

Well, if I had to choose between this one and the one in Reynoldsburg, I'm going with Reynoldsburg. Everything, from the hostess to the taste of the food is worth two, less stars. The full order of onion straws here, matched Reynoldsburg's halforder quantity. While still as delicious we were just expecting much more. I ordered the same meal as to compare. With theexception of the salad dressing. This time choosing the house dressing. I found the house dressing to be bland. I wish I wouldhave stuck with the blue cheese. Somehow, my steak ended up on my friends plate. Easily fixed and then it was just right. Ilike a nice medium rare steak! She likes hers medium well, so you can imagine my initial disappointment when slicing into that.I found the ribs here to also be dry and not as flavorful. I do love the Hickory house but my recommendation is to eat at theone in Reynoldsburg, obviously.

Got here 1100am, pretty empty. Table needed cleaned. We started with half orders of the chips and onion straws. The chips I really liked, the straws not so much. Very thin, oily, just not a lot of onion flavor. I had the house salad with a change ofcreamy blue cheese dressing, not the house and the soup of the day chicken poblano. The soup was okay, felt needed more kick,but the salad was very good. Hubby had the ribs with fries. Fries were fresh, hot and thick cut. He felt the ribs, thoughtender, would not stand on their own without the sauce. Service was good. I personally enjoyed the music, mostly 70s 80s easylistening. I would probably rate 3.5 if available.
