Old Hickory Bar B-Q

Old Hickory BBQCaveat this is Old Hickory BBQ and not Hickory. We greatly enjoyed Hickory BBQ on Brown, and one week later it is to Old Hickory for a meal.Yelp reviews are important to us, and should be important to management. Reviews are all over the place: "They always mess up my order and are not friendly at all. Food is so - so tables are rarely cleaned off from previous customers" and "Best barbecue ribs in Dayton. Their sauce is amazing! Will definitely be back."We found very enthusiastic wait staff with counter service; no beer or wine sales. Seems to service local take-out area, and Old Hickory BBQ does a great Wednesday dinner with a $12.00 meal. Ambience is take-out counter service. Ribs have little meat in bone and little taste. Ribs are overpowered with sauce.The small dining area is that of a fast food restaurant.Old Hickory BBQ ribs were not the best in Dayton, and we recommend Hickory BBQ on Brown Street.Thus far, Zink's in Centerville, OH is the clear winner in BBQ.

This was my first time eating at this restaurant. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and steak fries for delivery. I got the BBQ sauce on the side, because I'm fairly picky with my BBQ sauce. I did end up liking the sauce, but I only used it on my sandwich because the chicken was so dry. I also got crinkle-cut fries and not steak fries. Definitely lacking some attention to detail here.

I will never come back. They have a guy named Timmy that is clearly a man pretending to be a woman. Long nails and braids. Scared the sh!t out of me when he set down the bill to sign. Told management and they said he can dress how he wants. I'm disgusted and I lost my appetite. Will not support a business that promotes fraud. I don't feel safe here. AND THEY CHARGE FOR WATER!!! Boneless ribs were dry.

Old school restaurant, basket of bread and butter on the table, waitresses are cool ladies. To me the chicken dinner is excellent, liked the ribs also. Try it out if this place is on your radar

I had a very good chicken dinner. I had my bf call in an order for me, and I got a chicken breast, baked potato, and house salad. The chicken was moist and delicious, no complaints! I highly recommend stopping in and getting some good food.

Ok.. So we visited this place a couple years ago..we play Pokemon at the Air Force Base..One day we were starving when we were done pokemoning and we saw Old hickory... Decided to give it a try...Hands down the best roasted chicken I have ever had... We were stopping there every Sunday after playing our game... Of course I gained 10 lb.. but it was amazing!It's a small place it doesn't have a whole lot of seating... But everyone is super friendly... The food is amazing.. you have absolutely nothing to lose by trying their broasted chicken! Yum! Clucking great food!

We get takeout here a few times a year. Slab of ribs for husband and a half bbq chicken for me. Love the bbq sauce. And the house dressing is old school. Yum! Service is great, very nice people.

They always mess up my order and are not friendly at all. Food is so so tables are rarely cleaned off from previous customers

Amazing flavor, great value. Only one complaint. I wish they'd pull the membrane off their ribs. They're too tough. Don't take my word for it, check it out for yourself. Great place, only ever done carryout.

Tried for the first time tonight, I used every muscle in my arms to pull apart my rib bones, house salad was just some Kroger salad mix in a cup. Green beans were straight from the can not a drop of seasoning on anything!! 0/10 recommendThe younger girl that waited on us was so sweet and working her butt off, felt bad for her.
