Olde Hickory Grille — Restaurant in Manheim Township

My recent visit to Olde Hickory Grille was nothing short of delightful. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The ambiance is perfect for a relaxing meal, whether you're out with friends, family, or enjoying some alone time.

The menu offers a wonderful variety of dishes, each prepared with evident care and high-quality ingredients. Everything was flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The sides were equally impressive, particularly the sweet potato fries which were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, just the way I like them.

What truly stood out to me was the exceptional service. Our server, Hazam, was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience. He was knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations and making sure our needs were met without being intrusive. Hazam’s genuine passion for his work and dedication to making guests feel welcome added a special touch to our visit.

In a world where dining out can sometimes feel rushed and impersonal, Olde Hickory Grille and Hazam provided a refreshing and heartwarming experience. I left with a full stomach and a happy heart, already looking forward to my next visit.

My associate told me they had relatively new owners, though I can't verify that. We arrived at about 12:10PM on a Saturday. We waited 10 to 15 minutes before getting a menu and another 35 minutes after placing an order for a sandwich/fries plus an omelet. The sandwich and fries were both heavily salted, particularly the fries. The omelet was overdone. I had two bites of the sandwich and two fries before stopping. My associate ate about 1/2 of the omelet. I told the waitress how bad the food was. I paid for it at the register, left an undeservedly large tip, and then sought out the owner. I told the owner I thought that might be the worst meal I had in several years, that I was about to go elsewhere to get some food, and that everything was loaded with extra salt. I think the owner was surprised at my statements. I immediately left, not giving the owner an opportunity to address the situation or make it right.

Needless to say, I will not be returning even though I live nearby. If you try them, I strongly suggest you tell them not to add extra salt in large quantities...

We came in for lunch today, October 8 2023. The girl at the front counter did not take names and she did not give any numbers out. She was not keeping track of who was next to be seated. People were coming into the restaurant in large numbers and she was not keeping track of who was ahead of who for seating. She took several groups ahead of us although we had been standing there waiting much longer than those that came in after us. We left the restaurant because we were getting uncomfortable from standing so long. And we were ignored by the hostess except when we greeted her when we arrived. We then called the restaurant to suggest that the girl either take peoples’names or give them a number as they entered the restaurant. A young man answered the phone. He told us that they are busy. We KNEW that and we knew we would wait for a table. But, when she took several people who came in after us, we thought how disorganized this was. So, we tried to suggest a system the young man to be fair to the customers and he became rude on the phone - this was totally...
