FOURK

"We went to Fourk for dinner Saturday night. We didn't have a reservation but we're able to get a table right away at 5pm. We had appetizers of the Ahi and avocado and crab cakes. Next we had the cranberry salad and Cajun salmon soup. For the main course I had the seafood melange. Service was excellent the dishes we're original and well thought out however they were a bit under seasoned. All in all an excellent meal and we will go back."

"A true Hickory staple. The food gets better year after year. Such a great team of people to take excellent care of you too! I just miss Sunday brunch and Fourk lunch dates!"

"This was our third visit, and it was even better than last time! The Ahi Tuna and Avocado was the absolute best bite I have ever eaten! The service is exceptional, and the food is truly out of this world!"

"I visited this particular restaurant this past Saturday in Hickory and was left pretty much floored by everything. A brief back story. I was meeting a friend of mine from Asheville, and Hickory was approximately the halfway point between Asheville and Charlotte. She just Googled the best restaurants in Hickory, and FOURK came in at #1. So we decided to meet there for a really nice dinner, and both of us were extremely impressed with the choice. Situated right on the corner, its exterior was quite deceiving, in reference to its size. They have outdoor seating available as well. We were seated in a very comfortable booth and began the evening with housemade cocktails. I had the Summer Breeze, which is their version of a Mojito for reference, and she ordered the Cranberry Kiss, similar to a Cape Codder, but their own version of it. Great presentation, and taste. We shared the Lobster Dip as well, another excellent choice. There really were bits of lobster included. It had a distinctive, sweet, and spicy flavor that I thoroughly enjoyed. For the main courses, I had the Ribeye, and she ordered the Seared Scallop entrée. The Ribeye was grilled to perfection, accompanied by small smoked potatoes, chefs vegetable mix, and their own cheesy horseradish sauce, which complimented the Ribeye perfectly. The Seared Scallops were seared to perfection. They were served over lemon Basil rice with tri-color cauliflower and finished with a blackberry balsamic reduction. Phenomenal presentation and a fantastic treat for your taste buds. We ended up sharing, so I was able to enjoy this particular version of Surf-n-Turf. The dessert we ended up ordering was not even listed on the menu( a shoutout to T.J., our waiter, for his excellent service and recommendations). It was called Berry Panacotta. Similar to Creme Brule and Custard, yet not quite. It was served with fresh strawberries, blackberries, and fresh mint. This place was packed the entire time that we were there, and yet the ambiance was such that we were able to speak in normal/hushed tones. Even after a packed night, the restrooms were still pretty much immaculate. The owner, James, I believe, stopped by our table as we were finishing our coffee and dessert. A fine restaurateur and a most gracious host. My compliments to the entire staff, both in the front and back of the house and the owner. Everyone batted 1000, all the way around. Make sure that you make reservations, as they are only open from 5 to 10 pm on Saturdays. A special treat, not to be missed.

"Very delicious! Recommend anyone and everyone to come here! Waiter was extremely nice and was very informative on the menu that they had. You have to try the lobster dip and the tacos! Definitely will be coming back!"
