I truly adore this restaurant! It's a fantastic location situated in the old train station, and the patio is simply unbeatable. If you're thinking about ordering a side dish, make sure to try the beans – you won't regret it. Their spicy sausage, made in-house, is also a must-try.

I had been wanting to try this place since they opened and it did not disappoint! The cocktails were really good I got a festive one with tequila and pomegranate , and we tried the ribs, brisket, burnt ends , spicy sausage, street corn, cornbread pudding so good we ordered another serving , pineapple slaw, and hallelujah potatoes. The burnt ends are phenomenal and I was obsessed with the cornbread pudding. Hickory Park has some competition for sure on the BBQ side!! Cornbred is very unique and we had wonderful service as well! We will be back next time we visit Ames!
