This place has been closed every time I've walked by it and I've told myself for over a year now…read morethat I am going to stop in next time it's open. They are open Thursday/Friday/Saturday only from 4:00PM-9:00PM. It just so happens that I strolled by it on my way to a neighboring establishment. A+ for sticking to and carrying out the Saloon theme. I mean, it is the name of the place. They had incorporated great Halloween decorations at the time of our visit. The owners were very pleasant and greeted us upon entering. They have a wide range of local craft beers and wines and offered us samples in a cute mini mug. They served pretzels alongside our drinks which had a very tasty seasoning. The music selection was great and very fitting. I am glad to have stopped in and now know what to expect next time I come here!

Great Food, But…read more... I stopped into the Hickory Bar and Grill while in the Hermitage area. The Hickory Bar and Grille has been around since 1998, and it is a local restaurant serving American cuisine, steaks, seafood dishes and pub-style foods. I actually went there to try one of their grilled items, but ended up having a Seafood Jambalaya from the featured menu. This was a very good take on Jambalaya as it was packed with fresh seafood, clams, and other related ingredients. I did have one glaring issue with the dish and the service. The Jambalaya had baby clams in it; however, the server did not warn me that the baby clams were in their shells. In that thick jambalaya broth, which I stirred and actually looked at before eating, the baby clams were well hidden. I took a few spoonfuls of the Jamabalaya, and on the third or fourth mouthful, I had a mouthful of clam shells. This was not cool, as I ended up with a small cut on my gums, nothing like the taste of blood while dining. The server did not drop a bowl for the shells on the table, so I did not expect the dish to have shells in it. She also did not mention that the dish had shells when she brought it to the table. I wasn't too happy that I had to pull chunks of clamshells out of my mouth either. This is an example of poor communication. The kitchen staff should have told the waitstaff that the jambalaya had shells in it, and the servers should have asked at the very least, "What's in it ? " before their shift. Another server came by the table and asked how everything was, and when I told them that the dish had shells in it, it did not faze her either; she just said ' oh yeah,' and sort of chuckled and walked away, no apology or action. I may try the Hickory Bar and Grille again one day, but I will go for what I originally went there for, steak or another grilled meat.

Very welcoming, cozy vibe. Menu was eclectic. Lots of great choices for appies and entrees. MaL,nR,IT had a chicken cheesesteak sandwich w a cup of French onion soup. He raved about it. Chunks of chicken, banana peppers, fried onions, and cheese on a sub roll. Naturally, he had to use a knife and fork. I had THE MOST AMAZING cheeseburger I've ever had... better than the old Mannions in Yonkers NY or Squires. 8 ounces of a blend of chuck, brisket, and "I forgot" on a grilled roll, with Swiss and fried onions. If you know me, I usually put ketchup on my ketchup. Not this time. My cb was naked, no ketchup needed. I savored EVERY DELECTABLE BITE!!! Michelle, our very excellent server, also gave us directions back to I-80 from the KOA, so I wouldn't need to rely on MaL,nR,IT in the morning. Extremely reasonable prices, amazing food, great service. I wish it was closer. We both agreed...5 stars

Currently, this restaurant takes reservations only over the telephone, not online. My husband and I ate one lunch here. The seating hostess and waitress served us promptly and politely. The menu listed foods such as wings, crab cakes, salads, sandwiches, bowls, pierogies, tacos, chicken marsala, and salmon and drinks such as wines, cocktails, mocktails, sakes, and beers. Here are my ratings for what we ate: Duck Wontons - 4.5 stars - Wontons contained bacon, duck, onions, garlic, Swiss cheese, and French onion broth. Very flavorful. Deviled Eggs - 4.5 stars - The deviled eggs were filled with avocado, bacon, and tomato slaw. Shoot the Breeze - 4.5 stars - This entree consisted of a 14-ounce ribeye with chimichurri, pickled red onions, potato gnocchi, and garlic alfredo. The ribeye was juicy. The gnocchi were nicely cooked. Chicken and Ribs - 4.5 stars - My husband ate this special of chicken breast, St. Louis ribs, potatoes, and corn on the cob. He said that the grilling gave a better taste and that he enjoyed the Korean BBQ sauce. You're Doing Great - 4.5 stars - This mocktail contained non-alcholic orange aperitivo, lemonade, cherry, cucumber, and soda. The total price for these five menu items plus a soda and tax was $110, plus a tip. After our meal, my husband and I explored the outside. The waitress said that the Yeti father is named Osirus, the mother is Sasha, and they have two children. We also saw a treehouse, teepee, picnic tables, games, and woods.

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION FROM START TO FINISH 10/10!…read more Perfection. Everything about Talbots is absolute perfection. I eat A LOT of food, and one common denominator I see among top-tier restaurants is that the owners and management are a direct reflection of the overall experience, quality, and taste. Talbots is no different. We felt right at home from the moment we walked in. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly, like lifetime friends. Our waitress, Teresa, was fantastic. She passed all the vibe checks and matched our energy immediately, all the signs of a veteran server you want guiding you through one of the best eating experiences of your life. She gave us her recommendations and left us to decide. We knew we were here for the #hashtagyouwont 36oz ribeyes, but we wanted to see what else was recommended since everything looked and sounded amazing. We decided to order a lot of food, almost everything that was recommended. This will be a bit of a long-winded review, but I'm sure the true foodies will appreciate it, so here we go: THE APPETIZERS The Brie: How can brie be so good that it deserves to be talked about first? I have no idea, but it was excellent. The strawberry-jalapeño jam, brie, candied pecans, baby naan, and fruit just worked so well together. An absolute hit. Pork Cheek Tacos: These melted in your mouth and exploded with flavor. They were also a really decent size, we were expecting little bite-sized tacos on a dumpling wrapper, but got two substantial tacos instead which was a pleasant surprise. Naan Bombs: Flat out delicious, and there were enough in the serving for everyone to have a few. Duck Wontons: So unique and flavorful. These were like little empanada explosions of flavor. THE MAIN EVENT: THE 36OZ RIBEYE When I tell you this was a perfect steak, this was a perfect steak. Cooked medium rare, oozing with flavor, and charred to absolute perfection on the outside. That is no easy feat with a cut this size, but somehow Talbot and crew made it seem like a walk in the park. Hidden under the steak, soaking up all the juices, are the house cut fries. I forgot they were even there because of the sheer size of the meat! By the time I discovered them, they were soaked with steak juice, but somehow remained crispy and soggy at the same time. It was brilliant, the fries almost had a poutine like aspect to them. Magnificent, completely unique, and made so much sense. As for the side of corn salad.... absolutely mind blowing. It just looked like corn with some sauce on it, nothing special at all. I am so sorry I underestimated you, Mr. Corn Salad. My God, this stuff was amazing. It didn't make sense to me, but I didn't care, I just kept shoveling it into my mouth. DESSERT We saved room for dessert (of course) and got three: The Chocolate Cake: A plate of pure, chocolaty goodness. Pecan Sweet Potato Pie: Spectacular. Coconut Cream Cheesecake: Wow. I am a sucker for coconut and cream cheese anything, and this checked every single box. THE VERDICT Throughout the night, we watched Talbot go up to each table to check in on everyone, and the chef even came out to talk to us. It was an absolute perfect meal top to bottom, start to finish. You can tell how much this entire establishment cares about what they do, and it is a direct reflection on the food. It's not often I can say a meal is flawless, so I have to give them their flowers in a long well deserved review. Five stars, two thumbs up, and a standing ovation for Talbots Taproom. P.s. Extra kudos for all the cool art and overall atmosphere. There is a ton of stuff to do outside as well but we were there on a chilly night so remained inside. We saw a patio, disc golf, and all sorts of other activities, even a tree house. We can't wait to make the hour trip again and enjoy all they have to offer once summer is in full swing!
