Hickory Hut BBQ

Clean, masks required, friendly staff, awesome ribs, brisket & spice sausage, and nice park behind them for furry ones

Incredible is the only word needed to describe the food. Well worth getting off the beaten path for some of the best BBQ I have ever had and I even lived in Texas.

Stopped here on the way home from Nebraska....the reviews are true. This place is fantastic! Go the Hickory Hut BBQ in Salinas, you won't be disappointed. Great food at a great price. The people are real friendly too. Will definitely make this a normal stop as we drive between Texas and Nebraska.

Great restaurant's starts with Great service! All the employees were personable and helpful! Everyone working respected the social distancing rules and wore masks. Carissa was amazing! She knew the menu well and gave great recommendations! Best of all The food is delicious! Cant wait to go back

This place was really good. I had never heard of it before and decided to give it a try because well I'm on a road trip and that's what you do try new places and things. The restaurant is really visually interesting with almost every inch of their walls covered with photos or some type of art. I had the Burnt Ends sandwich basket and it was good. The sauce was sweeter than I'm used to but it was really good and that's the beauty of trying new places you get to discover that you like certain things. As we were leaving three female police officers showed up in different vehicles so they must have met up intentionally for dinner and since cops know the good places to eat I guess I really did pick a good spot to eat. As the three of them were walking in I made a joke that they all looked very arresting and they actually laughed. Coming from a large city where the cops are all stern faced it's was nice to experience police officers who are not afraid to let their human sides shine through. I even bought t-shirt so I could remember the place.
One last thing, if the restaurant management reads this, the men's bathroom was clean like really clean and when you are on a long road trip you have no idea how important it is to have clean place to take a nature break. Thank you to your employees for making the Hickory Hut a tasty and comfortable place to eat.
