The Old Hickory serves food that would be decent at two-thirds the price, in a manner that would be acceptable at TGI Fridays.
We were seated, without menus, at 9:40pm. Once given our menus, we did not receive the wine list until we requested it. Shortly thereafter, our waiter stood over us, waiting for our order, as the kitchen would be closing in five minutes. This was more than ten minutes before closing.
Hurried, we ordered Artisanal cheese that, while acceptable, was not worth $16 for three cheese-slices and two dates. My wife ordered a Mixed Green Salad with Balsalmic-Vinaigrette that was inedibly bad.
I found the Rack of Lamb to be acceptable, but not at $28 with no sides. My wifes Filet Mignon was cooked appropriately. At $34, bare, much better can be had at many other places for much less.
A plus, the side of mushrooms was delicious.
Pros: bread, butter, water
