Hello everyone. This is the second time I’ve been to this location. My sister in law just loves it here and to be honest it’s pretty good. We did have the chicken fried steak and some brisket, also ordered the ribeye. You come in and order and just look for an empty table, basically seat yourself. Dibs on the corner table in the back. We didn’t wait to long for our food, they call a number that you’re given when you order. Just head over the the food window and get your plates. I was really hungry and I know myself, I tend to just devour everything, but I have to say that the chicken fried steak was really good. It was hot, tender, crust was crispy, crunchy and well seasoned. The gravy was good and did complement the steak, but it wasn’t a milk gravy, not sure if maybe stock based but it was good. We did enjoy the food and after eating we just kind of sat there and talked for a while, just took in the atmosphere. I know I’m not focusing on the brisket and that’s because we came to try the chicken fried steak. But the brisket was good, I would recommend you come in to try various menu items, I haven’t had a few things but the food is good. Come by and bring the kids, friends and family.

We got the sample platter with pork ribs and brisket. The brisket tasted store bought and the ribs had little meat and was very chewy. The service and atmosphere is great but I think they could do better with their food. The only thing I would recommend would be the fries.

Delicious food and very affordable! I got a chicken fried steak for $13 and the size was incredible. The mashed potatoes and the Mac and cheese were my sides and they did not disappoint!! Lastly, their sweet tea mixed with lemonade makes for a very tasty Arnold Palmer!! Definitely recommend!

We love this place… iconic spot for great Texas BBQ. If you know, you know what I’m talking about y’all. It’s one of the oldest and best places to get your grub on. Everything here is great. Laid back Texas vibes. The BBQ is outstanding, and the sides are delicious. They serve one of the best glasses of sweet tea around. So, if you’re hankering for a taste of real TX BBQ, then head on over to Hickory Hollow. You will be glad you did. Thanks, y’all!

To clarify, the actual score I would like to give is 4.3 but there is no such option. We came here during our first trip to Texas to try Texas-must-eat chicken fried steak, which was good. We ordered 4 meat platter, including the chicken fried steak, lean brisket, chopped brisket and sausage, with fried okra and hot tots; I would recommend all except for the sausage, which was not as good as I had expected. Most people we saw at the restaurant were locals and they seemed to be regulars. The ladies who took our order were super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place if you would like to try something that is authentically Texan.

Have loved this place for a couple of decades now. Super nice staff. Great food, whether it’s the BBQ, chicken fried chicken, even the catfish. Best known however for it’s supersized Chicken Fried Steaks. Got a medium tonight so I had some for lunch tomorrow. Super crispy and hot! Sides are great. Fried okra is wonderful but I think the star is the fried zucchini!! Definitely worth your stop!!

Chicken fried take was amazing! We ordered the large one that comes with the gravy (black bowl) and two small sizes of your choice (potato salad and mac & cheese). We couldn’t even try the potato. The large chicken fried stake is HUGE. Really good price.

Nice little western place. I had a lot of Roy Rogers and John Wayne pictures surround. You walk up to the cashier and order your food. They then look call your number and you have to go get your own food. You serve your own drinks and everything. There’s no waitresses or waiters
