Hickory Lane American Bistro

A great bistro that has both indoor and sidewalk seating in a friendly area that's great for a drink after work with your friends or a relaxed meal with your better half. The menu is relatively modest in size but is carefully crafted and well executed, although the burger is a "can I have another napkin?" type experience that's a bit messy; I noticed another patron eating theirs with a knife and fork. The mac and cheese with pork appetizer was a great start to the meal.

Our waiter Francis was very friendly and on top of things. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, you may to to circle the block a few times to find something but you eventually will but it's worth it.

Excellent steak frites. Great waiter.

Our meal was awesome! The cheese grits were to die for and my eggs Benedict was sublime. Nice laid back atmosphere too.

I went here for brunch and it was great! The place is small and often busy so it can get packed. However, it's a little less known than cafe lift and la maude so no lines out the door.

Happy eating!

This is one of my favorites go to places to eat.
The atmosphere is quiet and in kiting for couples as well as a full family. I have eaten here for breakfast, lunch and dinner and each meal I ordered was well prepared, delicious, and healthy! This dinner entre consisted of mashed cauliflower instead of potatoes w/pan seared crusted salmon and lightly glazed brussel sprouts topped with bacon.
