This little jewel was a surprise. We have never had better hot wings. Amazing taste and size. Perfect!! The wedge salad was so large and fresh tasting. The picture shows a half as we split it. The shrimp and scallops were paired with linguine and a white sauce. There were many shrimp and three scallops. Perfect sear and the taste of each. Crème brûlée was the perfect end. read more

I've driven by this place so many times and was so pleasantly surprised with the interior and the food- we will definitely be coming back! Had the full wedge- exactly perfect with the thin onions, just the right amount of dressing, tomatoes and bacon! The chicken arugula panini hit the spot. We started with Crab fritters and stuffed mushrooms- both fantastic. Forgot to take a pic! read more

Would not recommend going on a busy time. There was a wait just to see how long the wait was. Sat many people before our big group that suggested we split up if it was an issue. An hour and half wait and then they told us when the big party leaves, we would we be seated. Bad part was they hadn't even got their food after sitting there for a half hour. Embarrassing because it was my suggestion to my family to go there. Not impressed. Maybe when there is one or two people but they can't handle big parties read more

First time at this restaurant. The food was great and the service was reasonably decent considering they were fairly busy. Good atmosphere all around, so I would definitely go back and recommend to others. read more

I have lived in woodstock for over a year and finally gave this place a shot. I am disappointed i didnt come sooner. I got the maryland crab cakes on steak and it melted in my mouth with a perfecto crunch from the fried crab cake. Each plate was touched with love, art and fresh ingredients. A+ 1000% we will be back. I so should taken a photo read more

After shopping all day it was time for a nice lil lunch near Hickory Flat Krogers. upon entry we were a bit confused about theme of the place, is it a sports bar? is it a upscale dining restaurant? is it a diner? Nonetheless we took a chance. Overall i though the place was nice, it was well intended for the Hickory Flat audience, but still mystified about the menu. Offerings of upscale items such as Scallops and higher end cuts of meats was a nice touch, we wanted something simpler. A cheeseburger mind you. LOL The server was a great gal who was very on her business and prompt with her delivery. If i was in the area again i would like to come back and tackle the bar... read more

Solid food and great to have choice of more quality food in the area. Wife had Steak salad - it was excellent.. Solid burgers and Paninis. Sometimes there is live music. Great service and speedy too. Really enjoyed it. read more

Our server, Belle, was very friendly and attentive and as a tip, Sunday nights are bit slower here. So it's a classy spot where you don't have to fight for reservations for a nice meal. We began with the Parmesan shrimp appetizer with large plump shrimp (tail on) and toasted crostini. We weren't terribly hungry, so we both had salads: my wife had the pecan encrusted chicken while I had the classic Caesar. Mine was fresh testing with everything chopped nicely and I didn't have to wrestle with any giant pieces of lettuce. The restaurant also has a patio with umbrella tables, although it was too chilly on our visit for al fresco dining. read more

I was in one of those moods where everything was the same old thing. So I was looking for something new to try and came across the newly opened Hickory Flat Kitchen. A very modern and open theme with a nice layout. I thought for being so new to open there would be some glitches but not the case. All went well and smooth. Seating, ordering, service, entrees, dessert and checkout very good. Deciding on the Garlic Parmesan Shrimp for an appetizer was an awesome choice. 6 jumbo shrimp sautéed and served in a garlic parmesan sauce was delicious and filling. And the Grilled Chicken Breast came with 2, 5oz chargrilled chicken breasts with seasonal veggies, caramelized onions for 20 dollars. I thought a very good value for the amount of food you get. Finishing off a delicious and very enjoyable experience was the Baked Walnut Fudge Brownie with raspberry coulis topped with French vanilla ice cream. Very very good. Just not sure why a brownie and a scoop of ice cream took so long to come out. But it was definitely worth it. A very excellent experience for a restaurant thats only been open 3 weeks. HFK is on their way to having a booming business. read more

Amazing, food was AMAZING!!! AMAAAZING. Salmon melted in my mouth, (i got it medium cooked), the steak was so tender and juicy, and the creme brûlée was soso creamy!! For the service, the waiter was so nice and explained a lot of things with good detail. The ambiance was very nice and dim, and the music playlist they had was really great actually! Mostly 2000's pop. I 100% recommend this, but if you did want to come here, just know when you pull up the windows might be a bit dark, but they are always like that and it doesn't mean it's closed (what we thought). read more

We had an excellent group dinner this evening with a group of 14 in their private room. Our server was outstanding, she was attentive and managed our group well, nothing needed. Our food was flavorful with ample portions. Excellent restaurant highly recommended read more

Food is so very, very good! This is my second time there I had to have the southern burger again because it is fantastic with the fried green tomato in it! My husband had the southern fried chicken with gravy and green beans he almost licked the plate . It was so good. The mashed potatoes are really delicious. Gouda grits are amazing. The fish tacos are very fresh and good. The fries are awesome. I wish the restaurant were closer to where we live, because we're gonna be making the trip often.! It's a lovely restaurant, too. The service was good. It's nicely decorated. read more

The food was fresh, generous portions, and delicious & the service was friendly, fast, and great! Worth the drive from anywhere in metro atlanta . read more

Really good food, excellent bar service and comfortable environment. Very thankful to have another higher end, sit down restaurant without having to drive to Canton. Taylor at the bar made the visit fun and made great drinks for us. The shrimp and grits dish is one of the best I have had. And I highly recommend. Portions were huge. Stuffed mushrooms were excellent ,as well. Cesar salad was so big she couldn't finish it. Highly recommend and will be back very soon. We appreciate having this so close! read more

We had a group of 12 dining on a Wednesday evening. Service was good, sandwiches were good but onion rings were terrible, all batter and no onion! First time I've ever not finished my rings as I really love them! I was also disappointed that they do not honor veterans with any discount! I risked my life in Vietnam and that's not even worth a 10% discount? Shameful! read more

Burger charred on outside and 1/2lb patty was a 1/4 not 1/2 Chicken salad croissant- croissant was stale and dry, chicken salad recipe had wandered very far from the frosty frog recipe. Fries were good Waiter started strong and then never returned until time to clear plates , no drink refill. read more

Each and every time the food is fantastic! The chef is creative and we've never gone wrong with a special or anything on the menu! Service has been great! Miriam and Bethany have taken great care of us each time we come in! Quaint looking from the outside, warm and cozy on the inside. Has a private room and plenty of seating for small and large parties as well as a full bar. Don't sleep on HFK, this will be a place where there is always a wait once the word spreads. read more

We have been to this restaurant numerous times. The food has been delicious every time. Tonight we had the southern burger and fries and got a side of the Gouda cheese grits. Every bit amazing. I don't think anyone has better Gouda grits. I didn't give 5 stars because I believe they could do a better job at attentiveness. There were only three tables occupied and when we entered no one greeted. After standing for several minutes we walked closer to the bar for someone to notice us. Similar experience in the past. read more

The Food was tasty. The hospitality and service were excellent. Location was an issue - it's in the heart of HF which is busy depending on the time of day. read more

Hickory Flat Kitchen - HOUSE MADE CHICKEN SALAD ON LEAF SALAD I chose the house made pecan vinaigrette! Perfection! - Seafood Near Me - Canton, Georgia

We are enjoyed our first meal there today. My husband was recently diagnosed with heart issues and has to be stringent with his salt intake. Not only was everything we ordered delicious but the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The stuffed mushrooms, garlic Parmesan shrimp, sea scallops with broccolini were perfect. We definitely will be repeat customers and will tell family and friends about this gem restaurant. Mary McNeeley read more

Hickory Flat Kitchen - Seafood Near Me - Canton, Georgia

Friday night date night with delicious food and calm atmosphere. Nearly every table and booth was filled, but the seating space allows for thoughtful conversation at each table. The all-star staff was congenial and attentive. We enjoyed a fresh salad adorned w shrimp, and a salmon BLT that we would order again and again:) read more

Generous four-stars but really hoping they live up to it soon. Nicely renovated with nice ambiance (nothing special or memorable though) and plenty of light. Disappointed that each booth didn't seem very private at all. The aisles were pretty tight, so tables across were pretty close. The bar area looked like a decent attempt but with the door to the kitchen right there, I can imagine it wouldn't be great on a busy evening. The music wasn't obtrusive and barely noticeable. The hostess seemed very unsure and struggled to figure out where to seat two of us also with the need for a high chair since the center booths are all raised. We just awkwardly stood there waiting as she started to clean a table for us then came back only to seat another couple behind us before finishing cleaning the table and finally seating us. She was not particularly friendly and I'm not sure she even smiled ever at us let alone greeted us when we arrived. The server was nice but I'm not sure she ever smiled either. Pretty attentive refilling waters. Never suggested add-ons or offered us appetizers or desserts. Food took quite a while for lunch service but we were ok with the wait. Our server apologized. The bistro steak salad was pretty good but way too much dressing hidden in there (I should have asked for dressing on the side) and my steak that was supposed to be medium but was quite red and raw in the middle and not seared on the outside which would have added more flavor. It was still decent and a big portion but also wish it came with croutons or a roll. My friend's chicken panini was good but looked skimpy and lackluster. She said it was dry and lacked sauce but still was pretty spicy. She said her fries were very good. It's the prices that were a shocker when first seeing the menu. The ambiance and food didn't warrant the prices. And certainly not the service. Another reviewer said there was a 4% surcharge for credit card processing but I was busy with my friend and a fussy baby by that point and didn't notice it on my bill. It certainly isn't on the menu. I really want it to succeed and will try it again, just I will bring cash and plenty of it. read more

Waaayyy overpriced for what you get. Got 5 stuffed mushrooms for $16 $35 for stuffed flounder and it was the smallest piece of Flounder I have ever seen. Very small portion and zero taste in their food read more

Always good food and service. The ambiance is nice. Nice happy hour too. Experienced no issues.

Food is great. Good service and you can't beat happy hour deals. Must try the onion rings and Shrimp garlic parm.

I think Hickory Flat kitchen had a great idea to put an upscale restaurant in this area. However, they really don't quite Measure app. They also get any notoriety simply because of the location that they are in and the success of the business they took over it, which was the Frosty Frog. It says they have tons of reviews but those tons of reviews are from the Frosty Frog not from Hickory Flat kitchen. I think they are very misleading. Our appetizers were cold, and the Seabass I ordered was nothing like what I expected only to find out that it is an Italian Seabass, but again not anything that I was expecting. I would say they have fair food, way over priced and then they tack on a fee to your final bill if you use a credit card. That's really tacky. As a business owner I don't pass on those fees to my clients. It's just part of doing business. If I'm willing to, except those credit cards which makes it easier for the clients to pay for services, then I should be willing to except the fees, according to the contract that I enter in by using them. it may even be illegal for them to pass on that fee to their guests. Either way. I'm not impressed. So sad,as we really do need an upscale,five-star, restaurant in this area. This certainly is not it! read more

What used to be the frosty frog sandwich shop and creamery (I believe) has been turned into an upscale dining experience to rival our other local favorite "farm to table" experiences. While maintaining the locally famous chicken salad salad and cheese spread from its predecessor, the team has elevated not only the food offered, but also the cocktails. The bar area offers a welcoming sports watching/socializing atmosphere while the dining room offers booth seating giving an atmosphere of intimacy for those wanting an evening away. Outside you have an open patio for those that enjoy fall and the great outdoors with speakers for ambience. Umbrellas cover the wrought iron patio tables for sun or elemental exposure. The bartender and owner were incredibly friendly and informative as to the menu for food and drink along with good conversation. A must try if you're a canton local. Support small business and eat well! read more

I waited a bit to try this place, because I heard from the start that they had some things to iron out. Upon finally trying it last night, I will say that the service was very good and the food was good as well. It's really noisy. And it's kind of weird being in there the first time since it changed hands from the Frosty Frog. I there's just something about the acoustics and a hollowness that makes the loudness a bit off-putting for me. What I definitely did not like are the prices. My dish was good but the food really does not justify the menu prices. The cheese spread, which is the same exact recipe from the frog, is $12 and comes with about eight pieces of crostini. We asked for some additional crostinis because it wasn't quite enough and they charged ANOTHER $1.50 just for a few slices of tiny bread. I think the move to nickel and dime with prices already at a premium is a really poor decision on their part. A friend asked about subbing the spinach in her dish with some brussel sprouts. Well, they don't offer those as a standalone side item and were not able or willing to accommodate the request so if she really wanted that substitution, she would've had to have ordered the actual entire appetizer for $14. That just doesn't seem very customer focused or accommodating to me. Again, particularly for the prices they expect to command. I'm glad they seem to have worked out their service and food quality issues but I really don't see myself returning here given the poor price to value ratio. The meal was just fine but this is not a fine dining experience and for that money, I'll go to 7 Acre or Union Hill Grill instead. read more

Service was very prompt. Had a berger here for lunch it was awesome. There are tv's in the resturant for all you sport viewing. If your a REDSINK's fan your in for a surprise. Lots of room for large parties. This is on my list when I in the area. read more

Server was great very nice and attentive, cozy on the inside, food wasn't really good the burger we got was rare when we asked for medium, the chicken panini, the chicken was over cooked, the backed Mac and cheese was amazing fries were great, the omelet was good stuffed full but the food was just not worth the price definitely not somewhere I'll hope to go again. read more

The service was deplorable. We were there for an hour waiting for our meal. Had to ask for refills of the water and only got "topped off" once. The food was mediocre at best. I had the Sea Bass and it was cooked with the skin on. I'm probably in the minority here but I would expect that when ordering sea bass, it would have been a filet. It was a lot of work to get to the actual fish. The other 2 people ordered a chicken salad sandwich (which he said was nothing special) and my other friend ordered the Caesar salad with shrimp. He said it was good. Keep in mind that when you go there it is REALLY LOUD. I finally gave up on having a conversation with either one of my friends. This was my second visit there. My wife and I went Saturday night and my filet was excellent while the chicken dish she ordered was OK. For the prices I expect a better quality of food and much better service. read more

Ate dinner here last night and are so excited to have a new restaurant in our area! We went with the understanding that there might be new opening wrinkles. Took about 45 minutes to get our drinks, a good 90 minutes to get our dinner and after trying to order three different wines that were on the menu only to be told they didn't have them, we settled on the only bottle them had. I had really hoped the manager would come introduce himself to our table but he never did. That's hospitality 101. We stayed a total of 3 hours which was ok with us because we were socializing. The cocktails were delish as well as the food. Not sure if the meal was worth the value but it was hot and tasty! Suggestions: 1. upgrade your wine list and make sure you have it on hand 2. Lose the Softsoap in the restrooms. Grab some lavender scented soaps in a lovely bottle. Simple but effective in raising the bar. Prices are upscale. The rest of your restaurant should follow suit. High quality paper towels were a nice touch. 3. Have management Introduce themselves to every patron. I will definitely be back. Thank you for opening in our community! read more
