We went into town to go to a different restaurant, and happily ended up here! The atmosphere and service were wonderful, and just what we were looking for on a snowy date night. The bourbon drinks were delicious and our salmon and burger very good. Esp with the homemade chimichurri sauce. Good music in the background and just a nice spot for a nice meal.

Seafood items (like crab cakes) were delicious. Hollandaise sauce on the Benedicts had too much mustard for our taste. Ambiance was incredible with many tastefully decorated Christmas trees and high ceilings. A lovely experience in Sandy Hook.

We love HillTop! Our family recently attended the Santa brunch. The children had an amazing time, the food was excellent, and the hospitality was second to none. We appreciate family businesses. This family does it right!

This restaurant is truly a hidden gem!! My husband and I went here for the first time last night for our anniversary and we were blown away!! We were welcomed by friendly staff and a beautifully decorated dining room. I got the “spicy Santa” margarita which was a delicious spin off a cosmopolitan but with tequila. They have hand’s down the best calamari I have ever had!! The food was exceptional. I highly recommend coming here and experiencing all that they have to offer.

The dining room was decorated with large artificial Christmas trees, giving the room a cheerful ambience. It was downhill from there. Several people waited on the table, on which six places were set. We were a group of four. None of the waitstaff removed the two extra place settings, leaving the table cluttered with extra plates and utensils. The person who took the orders and supervised the delivery of the main courses totally forgot that we all had ordered salads and only brought them after the main courses had been served. Two of us ordered the salmon. It was very disappointing. Thin, overcooked pieces that tasted old. But the worst thing was that the placement of the two ravioli dishes was reversed, serving the lobster ravioli to a member of our party who has an allergy to it.
To summarize, it is recommended NOT to dine at Hilltop.

Hilltop Kitchen is a wonderful family-run business. Every member of the family is kind-hearted and hardworking, and it truly shows in the warm atmosphere and excellent service. Their food is consistently delicious, whether you're stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I especially love the chicken masala and their gluten-free pizza: the crust is the best I’ve ever had. The interior is beautifully decorated, and during warm weather, sitting on their patio is both relaxing and lovely.
I’m especially grateful to Alisha, who is incredibly patient and goes above and beyond to take special care of my 95-year-old Dad, a frequent diner there. They even catered my father’s 95th celebration; the food was not only beautifully presented but also absolutely delicious.
Definitely check them out, you’ll most likely become regulars, just like my family has.

We came for brunch with a family of four and each dish was visually appealing and even more importantly delicious! I highly recommend the avocado toast and mimosa. The atmosphere was so warm and perfect and the staff was absolutely fantastic. Great place for a date too.

Went to brunch today with my wife and 2 foodie kids. We all enjoyed our meals and I have to say every interaction I had with the family that owns this restaurant was delightful at the restaurant and also the deli they own on the other side of newtown. In this day and age when good services and smile are so far and in between. I have to this family goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and welcome! Thank you
