Visited Hillstone on a Monday night with a reservation and got seated right away. We started with the artichoke dip — really good and super comforting. I had the French dip, which I liked a lot, and my partner got the Hawaiian ribeye, which was even better and what I’d order next time. Drinks were great (Woodford Old Fashioned), though the bar glasses felt a little simple for a nicer restaurant. Service was great. The key lime pie is a must.

An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The meat was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and truly some of the most delicious I’ve ever had. The ambience strikes the perfect balance of elegance and comfort, making it ideal for a special night out. Service was impeccable, attentive without being intrusive. One of the highlights is the outdoor area, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine while taking in the beautiful views by the lake. It’s also a stunning spot for photos, which makes the experience even more memorable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for exceptional food in a beautiful setting.

I LOVE Hillstone!
This is a great date night spot (recommended to make reservations for right before sundown so that you can see the sunset). There is a beautiful, small pier that you can walk outside onto. There’s seating there as well for lounging. There’s also seating by the walkway to the pier, and if I’m not mistaken, I think I’ve seen a firepit before, I’m not sure. But all in all, it is a beautiful restaurant.

The servers are personable and are good at their jobs. The food?!
The food is DELICIOUS. This time, I had more than my usual (knife and fork barbeque ribs that quite literally fall off the bone). My mom and I shared the Jalepeño Queso with tortillas and the Southern Style Brussel Sprouts with lemon aioli and reggiano. The queso isn’t my thing but it was yummy, and the brussel sprouts? I dislike brussel sprouts but I loved these. That lemon aioli was chefs kiss! My mom ordered the crab cakes and she let me try them. I might be getting those the next time!

The drinks are good too. I usually get margaritas, but this time I had the Jackrabbit, which tasted very similar to a paloma but served up.

I recommend Hillstone over and over and over again!

I’ve been coming here for at least two years, and this is my first review. I love the atmosphere, the way the staff treats me (always very friendly and professional). Lately, I’ve been going to the bar, where I’ve made more friends sitting in those chairs than I have in my entire life going to restaurants. The food is always delicious! I love the salmon and all the salads. I also love it when I get there and they bring my favorite water, my wine, and always my espresso, of course! Hilltone, for me, is like a hub for making new friends and great food. This place won’t work for you if you’re always trying new places, complaining about the food at restaurants, raising your hand to call the waiter. This place is definitely for people with above-average taste. I recommend it 100%%.

Great upscale place for romantic, best friends reunion and special occasions. Hard to find a place like this nowadays. The fillet mignon was very delicate and delicious . Mashed potatoes a little cold for my taste but balanced in flavor. The capuccino was not bitter and the Sundae actually surprised me. The ice cream, whipped cream, jalapeno cheese and devil eggs seen to be made with hand-made procedures. Customer attention very good as well. The manager came to our table to ask if we needed anything. Would come back with my future girlfriend to see the sunset

I made reservations online and even called ahead to let the restaurant know I would be bringing my 2-year-old son. I wanted to be considerate and upfront, and I was reassured it would not be an issue. Unfortunately, the way we were treated made it very clear that families with young children are not welcome here.

From the start, my son was simply enjoying his meal. He wasn’t crying, throwing a tantrum, or disrupting the restaurant. Like any happy toddler, he let out little bursts of excitement when he got a bite of food he liked. These were short, joyful reactions, nothing more than what you’d expect from a child his age.

Instead of showing understanding, the manager, Cindy, came to our table twice during our meal and told us to have him lower his voice. Her tone was not professional or kind, it was dismissive and carried an attitude, making it feel like we were being scolded. This wasn’t done in a gentle way, but in a way that made us feel singled out and embarrassed.

I want to stress that we are respectful diners. If our child had been disruptive, we would have handled it ourselves. That wasn’t the situation. He was just a toddler expressing happiness, and for that we were told, twice, to control him. It ruined what should have been a pleasant evening out.

Hospitality is about more than serving food, it’s about making guests feel welcome. Families deserve to enjoy a meal without being treated like a problem. If children aren’t truly welcome, the restaurant should make that clear upfront, rather than humiliating parents during dinner.

The bottom line is that Cindy’s handling of the situation was unprofessional, unnecessary, and disappointing. A manager should set the tone for warmth and care, not make paying guests feel like they don’t belong.

We won’t be returning, and I would warn other families to think twice before dining here. If your child shows any excitement or joy, be prepared to be corrected rather than welcomed. That is not the kind of memory any parent wants from what should be a family outing.

No child should be treated as a nuisance for simply being a child, and no family should walk away from dinner feeling disrespected. Sadly, that is exactly what happened here.

Othniel served us politely and was very kind, as were the other staff. Our dishes (a rib eye and a barbecue pork rib) were well presented, cooked to order, extremely tender and flavorful. The wine was at the perfect temperature (Flowers Pinot Noir). The restaurant is on the lakefront, with a wonderful view from practically every table. The atmosphere is pleasant, quiet, with people conversing moderately and respectful of other tables, which makes the atmosphere even more pleasant. We didn’t see any children there, only teenagers. We reserved a table and didn’t have to wait more than 5 minutes, and I recommend reservations, as waiting can be up to an hour, depending on the day and time. An excellent place for happy hour, whether for beer, wine, whiskey, or mixed drinks. The bar was packed. I highly recommend it. We will be back.

If I could give 4.5/5 I would.

Service 5/5 – exceptional service start to finish

Atmosphere 5/5 – very nice inside and overlooking the lake out back is a nice touch

Margaritas 3/5 – no better than a basic marg at any non upscale restaurant. Heavy sweet and sour mix

Brussels Sprouts App 2.5 /5 – can make the same steamed Brussels at home. Only thing that makes them good at hillstone is their lemon aioli sauce. Sauce 5/5

I got the New York Strip which was 5/5

Wife got the Hawaiian Steak 5/5 – would recommend this to anyone, absolutely delicious and one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. Would 100% get this next time over the NY strip even though the strip was great.

Overall very good, nice restaurant with great service. However, other than having better steaks I’d rather walk across the street to sixty vines for better drinks/appetizers and spend less money

We love coming to Hillstone! Food is always delicious and consistent. (The pork chop is our favorite!) Service is always great. Today we had the pleasure of Hannaley serving us, and she was amazing and super nice! She went above and beyond to make our experience extra special. Hope to be seated with her again next time! 🙂
