SandBar Marina & Grill

9 of us decided to go here for dinner since it was close to home and because it was beautiful outside..we sat outside. 2 other tables ( couple people) 3 or 4 tables inside. Not busy at all. Our server was nice. We all ordered drinks which probably took 10 minutes to get. Should never had took that long..then we ordered..we waited waited waited for our food..almost an hour for our food, there was No reason why it should of took that long. It wasnt even busy!!! Had to go in and ask where our food is.Ticket time should of been 12 15 minutes. Even saw a couple come in and was seated outside and never was greeted or waited on, they got up and walked out.Not sure what the problem is there but I suggest they get their act together or they will be looking for trouble.There doing something wrong, they should be busy but then on the other hand if the service and the ticket time of the food is poor I understand why no one will go there.Our server was very nice but it took her over 15 minutes to get our checks..the way she wrote down our order then tryed to to place them per couple wasnt working..we were all standing waiting for our tabs. Being a server all my life and watching her write our orders down I new she was going to have a problem .I dont believe I would ever go back again. Food was just ok

We went here on a quiet Vantentines day afternoon. The place is in a nice, quiet location and the building and deck are very nice. The food was great and all of the wait staff was very friendly. I will stress, the food was excellent! I had a great fish fry and we also had some crab cakes which were top notch. We were able to be in and out in about an hour or less and the experience was great. They were setting up for a romantic Valentine's day evening and even had a live violinist preparing for a performance. I will be going back here in the future for the food and live entertainment. I would 100% recommend this place if in the Lake Hickory area.

Delia was the greatest server ever and the food was pretty good. There was also some live music which was pretty good uh Brandon Davidson I think. Highly recommend

Good selection of good and drinks. On the lake so great views. Nice outdoor seating. Live music is a plus. Service can be iffy. Been there several times. Staff is pleasant but always new servers so I don't fault them too much.

Came with my family, very accommodating and kid friendly. The general manager is very hands on, which I think is great since he is very friendly and has a great personality. The ambiance and setting are amazing - covered out door seating overlooking the lake. The portions are very large and the food was excellent! Catfish strips were outstanding - my wife said it was some of the best fish she's had at a restaurant. Their fries are addictive - not like any fries we've had at restaurants before, and the kids Loved the Mac and cheese! The Brussel sprout appetizer was very big and very well executed! Wings and burger were also great! Overall it was a great experience and we look forward to coming back!
