  My first visit to Tangled Hickory was amazing.  The wait staff was excellent and very friendly.  The bartender was very knowledgeable about the various wines.  The service was quick.  The food was delicious (I had the tortilla soup and a sandwich).  For dessert, the cheesecake and truffles were perfect.  The prices were reasonable as well.  Finally, the atmosphere...this place is so cozy and comfortable, it feels like you are hanging out at a friend's place.  The live music was wonderful and really set the mood.  I highly recommend this place!!  I will definitely be going back!

  Second time going to Tangled Hickory. They have expanded their dinner menu and we have been impressed both times with the friendly, socially adept (albeit young) wait staff. Started with the spinach and artichoke dip with pita bread toast. Yum yum!! Had a perfectly spiced pork rib and strawberry-rhubarb wine with a slice of organic strawberry. Very nice! A lovely, young lady was playing piano music through our dinner. The food and decor reminded me of an intimate New York restaurant serving high quality, local/organic food. They have beautiful paintings and comfortable sitting areas to hang out and savor a couple of glasses of wine. Very nice atmosphere and a welcome departure from so many ordinary restaurant/bar settings. We spent only slightly more than we would have at the Driftless.

  We had dinner on a Friday night and was excited to try their Friday Thai Fusion menu. Upon arrival my husband and I ordered a glass of wine. It took 10 minutes to receive the wine. The restaurant was not busy. Our waitress was not very good, but not for lack of trying. I received the wrong entree. while the rest of the people in my party where eating I was waiting for what I ordered. My husband ordered the Thai beef served over jasmin rice. The rice was completely overcooked and mush. the beef was dry and the entire dish lacked flavor. Once I received my order of the pork ribs I was pleasantly surprised, besides being slightly overcooked it was good and had good flavor.  Food was overpriced. If it would have been consistently good I wouldn't mind paying what we did. However, that was not our experience.
  
  Rating on service alone. Terrible. I would return only for wine and maybe appetizers.

  We passed through Viroqua with intent of stopping for food and weren't aware of Tangled Hickory. What a wonderful and relaxing wine bar! Service was excellent, prices were fair, actually on the low side when considering quality. The two of us had sandwiches and, what else, wine.  We bought a bottle with our food, the wine was $16.00 which in a restaurant is very low and of course a great deal! Don't be intimidated by the haute cuisine atmosphere, casual is fine...relax, sip and dine! Bella!
