Great food! Grilled shrimp is my favorite. My Hubbie always goes for the filet. Awesome burgers, fried fish is really good, and the salads are great. If you like blue cheese dressing, their's is the best I've had.

Almost two years in Reynoldsburg and we JUST made it over to Hickory House. And what an experience it was. I feel like we have never stopped in because the outside looks so unassuming. The place is actually pretty massive and literally looks like a log cabin all throughout. There is a large wrap around parking lot so no need to have any parking anxiety. We arrived on a Saturday around 5:30PM and had no trouble getting a table. By the time we were leaving things picked up. Our waitress was a hoot. She was quite the sales person. Explained everything, super informative and very personable. With it being our first time she offered us some free bones to try. It was a lovely gesture and honestly ended up convincing us to get ribs. Everything we ate was good. I think of the meats I tried (chicken / pulled pork / ribs) the ribs were the best. The meat fell off the bone seamlessly. Super tasty. I think I only wish their BBQ sauce was a bit thicker. Pulled pork could have used LESS sauce in my opinion. Mashed potatoes were great, house made salad dressings were good, and you can literally never go wrong with bread for the table. We had a positive experience and would return again!

Went here with friends for dinner. There are two Hickory Houses in town. They are about 5-10 minutes away from each other. They appear on the same website... however, they are completely different and run by different people. What we noticed was at both the inside décor is similar. Woodsy. Cabin-ish feeling. The reynoldsburg one (this one) has a bunch of smaller rooms. More cozy than the gahanna one which has a one large room with a vaulted ceiling. The ribs at this location are just as tender, but the sauce definitely seems different and my ribs here were not as tender as Gahanna. I also ordered green beans here at Reynoldsburg... those are different too. Here they are more like the frozen short green beans and not seasoned the same. In Gahanna they are the long thin grean beans and seasoned steak house style. The servers at each location were nice but at the reynoldsburg one they are definitely quicker and slightly more friendly. That is a huge plus. That said: I prefer the ribs/beans at the gahanna location. The chicken parm here is quite amazing. Its probably one of the best Ive ever had. The mac n cheese here is better than the other location, too. Either location you choose... you get good food at a reasonable price. I like it.

I stopped a person coming out and asked what's good. He recommends ribs.. so ribs it was! I was greeted friendly. Football was on so into the bar area I went! I settled on the "get every thing BBQ platter". I comes with ribs, pulled pork sandwich (no bun for me) and chicken breast. A salad and side. Everything was fresh and very good but the ribs were fantastic! The sauce!! It should be illegal! (I'll take a vat of it!)
