So I arrived about 10 minutes late and that was a big no no! I missed trying some of the new menu items (insert sad face).
I was able to try one of the flat breads (the steak one), the calamari, the fried grouper, the brussel sprout salad and the ahi tuna. Missed out trying the chicken flatbread and the low country broil. I'm not a big fan of seafood but they did very well with preparing all of the seafood dishes I was able to try. I would say that the fried grouper and the calamari were my favs. I love sauce so if the sauce really compliments the dish I'm all in. Be warned cause I was warned that the little red balls in the calamari dish are spicy peppers. I didn't try them but was warned they are spicy!!! The brussel sprout salad was very much a texture type of dish for me. The brussel sprouts are very well chopped but they still have a very hard texture. The salad dressing was a little lite. If I order it I would def get extra dressing.
We we're also able to try some wine and beer. I don't like beer so I skipped those but and was able to sample a few different wines they have available. I tried a Chardonnay, Merlot and a Cabernet Sauvignon. The wines were all good.
The servers were all very nice and helpful. The atmosphere was very chill and I saw all types of groups there. After work groups, friends, families and couples. This was my first time ever at a Hickory Tavern and I like the vibe.
