"My family members are long-time fans (60 years) of the original Hick 'ry Pit restaurant! From the moment we 're cheerfully greeted as we walk through the door until we leave full and happy, it 's a wonderful experience every time!The Hick 'ry Pit is a BBQ-Lovers paradise! The meat is always cooked to perfection in the smoker oven, and specialties like St. Louis ribs, original pork ribs, chicken and pulled pork are loved by all. All the side dishes are yummy, but my favorite is the coleslaw with the honey/horseradish dressing. I can never get enough of the fresh salad and crispy french fries either. And that 's not all...the menu is quite expansive with plenty of yummy sandwiches, burgers, breakfast combinations and so much more. And, let 's not forget about dessert! The pies all taste home-made and are simply scrumptious. Over the years, we often showed up with a few family members or friends to grab a bite! We always knew the food was going to be delicious. We ate outside on the patio when the weather was pleasant...or chose the air-conditioned interior on hot summer days. It was always a comfortable and relaxing way to spend a lazy weekend morning or post-work dinner. Last week, we did something a little different, we asked the Hick 'ry Pit to host a 50+ person event. I have never been more impressed. General Manager, Teyaum, and owner Gita went above and beyond to make sure that the layout accommodated our large group, and that everything was beautifully decorated. They were helpful and professional in the planning phase, and made many excellent suggestions to optimize our guest experience. On the day of our party, the place looked beautiful, and food was served to our hungry guests within 10 minutes of our arrival. Trays of meats and side dishes were brought to each four-person table, and everyone was able to dig in right away. Guests told us it was the best party they 'd attended in a long time! Thank you to Gita and her fabulous team. The food, ambience and service delivery was certainly beyond our wildest expectations. Thank you for making the Hick 'ry Pit a place we come back to over and over again. You guys are the best! Susanne Brown"
