We continue to love this place. Everyone gets something they totally enjoy. We love the Village Greek Salad, the Gyro & Chicken Souvlaki as well as the Greek Mac & cheese. The staff are friendly & helpful. The owner is often on site and truly cares about making his customers happy. Basic, casual dining area. Come for the food you won't be disappointed. read more

Went back to Hillside and I need to give this guy 5 . The owner and staff are kind and friendly. It's a neighborhood kind of feel. This place is solid. I got the gyro plate. It came with salad and fries. It was a lot of food. The salad is great just a perfect Greek salad. The fries were hot and crisp. The gyro with extra tzatziki was so amazing. Soft flat bread, fresh veggies, spiced meat, cheese and sauce. The sauce melted into it making it just a delicious bite. I will absolutely be back. read more

Hillside Grill - Gyro plate - Greek Near Me - Northborough, Massachusetts

I was very happy that I stumbled upon hillside grill for lunch. The staff were very friendly and answered all of my questions. Real Greek salad...fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, olives, olive oil, and amazing chunks of feta. It was very refreshing and filling...highly recommended. I had the lamb gyro with a Greek side salad. The lamb was very good, hot fresh and full of flavor. All of the vegetables were fresh and the tzatziki pulled it all together. I would say it was the best gyro I've ever had and would definitely order it again. read more

Delicious food and good service. Clean, comfortable place -- had a great experience overall.

Sooooo delicious!!! We stopped here after a long drive from Kbunk, ME- lucky us to find this spot! We weren't sure when we first pulled in, but we were greeted by the most friendly man (I think the owner) and the smells of tasty foods. Everything we ordered was made fresh and delicious!!! read more

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I believe it is a family-owned business with family members providing the key service areas. The food was exceptionally good. I had the gyro platter and my wife had the spinach roll special that was delicious. We also ordered potato skins to go and they look amazing. I can't wait to eat them later. The restaurant, dining area and bathroom was spotless. I highly recommend the Hillside Grill! read more

Best chicken tenders you will get anywhere! Fresh chicken tenders that they make their own batter for. If you like chicken tenders, this is the absolute best place to get them. Great burgers, gyro platter and many other things too. Great family owned restaurant, very nice people, highly recommend Hillside Grill as a great place to eat in or get takeout. One of our favorite places. read more

What a gem this place is! My son and I were returning to Boston from a road trip to NY, and were looking on YELP for good burger restaurants in the Northborough area. Reviews for Hillside Grill were excellent, so we stopped in for lunch. Instantly the smell of seasoned grilled meat hit us as we came in. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger, which was enormous. It was cooked to perfect medium, with about 6 giant curly strips of crispy bacon on top. It was really fantastic. My son had a huge Buffalo chicken wrap, which he claimed was delicious "af". The fries that came with our meals were those crispy crunchy fries that we both love. We split an order of onion rings which were also perfect. Straight out of the fryer to our plates. Living near Boston this restaurant is a little far for us to be a regular spot, but for upcoming road trips out that way, we will make a strong effort to stop in and try more. There were about a dozen items on the board we were dying to have! This place is a must-stop for fresh, deliciously-cooked food. The staff is wonderful too! read more

Hands down the best Greek salad you will find in the area! I was very excited to try this spot after seeing such great reviews. I was most impressed by the high quality of the ingredients. From the chicken to the lettuce and vegetables in the salad, I knew I was eating quality food that tasted amazing! They sure don't skimp on feta! Very reasonable prices. When I picked up my order, the staff was very friendly. The place itself is very modern and clean. You won't have a hard time finding parking here. I truly don't think I can order a Greek salad from anywhere else local. Will definitely be back to try out more on the menu! read more

Thanks to all the other 5 star Yelp reviews since we almost missed this place. We were on the road traveling for hours and hungry for lunch. We stopped in around 2pm on a Friday and it was empty. The woman and man behind the counter were so friendly. The menu has salads, sandwiches, pasta, burgers and some Greek dishes. Three of us ordered the Greek platter which was $14.99 and included a gyro (lamb or chicken), fries and a Greek salad. Everything came out quickly and was delicious! The fries were nice and crispy and the feta was salty and delicious! Everything on their menu was so reasonably priced too! I'd highly recommend! Wish we lived closer because I'd definitely be back! read more

Traveling through and found this little gem! Service excellent, food tremendous. I got the fish sandwich, perfectly cooked and as good as the sandwiches I get in Maine. Onion rings were the perfect combo. Bonus..if you can get me to be friends with tartar sauce, welp you've done something. So fresh and delicious. My hubby got the gyro platter. One of the best he's ever had. And he's had a few in his day. We put a pin in this place to visit again if we get the chance. But if we don't y'all should go!! Enjoy!! read more

Great food! Delivery is available which is so convenient ! Love the people who own and work there ! read more

Just had a grilled chicken sandwich and it was excellent! I highly recommend the place!

A friend suggested we meet for lunch at Hillside Grill, and the food was delicious. The ambiance is pretty basic but pleasant. The staff was friendly and efficient. Quantity of food was generous. read more

Excellent fresh food I highly recommend Hillside grill. My Gyro platter was a delicious and a great value .

Went back to Hillside grill after a couple years away hoping it was still as good as before. We walked out after waiting at a table for 20+ minutes. The guy said sit at a table and we will find you. The waitress walked by us a few times and never stopped and no one ever came over. Walked out and went somewhere else. Wo t be goi g back again. read more

How do I know this is legit Greek food? When you ask for lemon, they take out a lemon and cut you half of it in wedges. Awesome. This is also a bog hit with the locals as the folks behind the counter seemed to know all the patrons coming in. It was a nice neighborhood feel. I had a Greek gyro platter, others had chicken souvlaki, ziti with marinara and veggie stir fry wrap with side of tzaziki. Everyone was really happy with their meals, and we are all Greek food snobs, so that says a lot. The gyro meat was not dry at all and had a nice flavor (even though it isn't made their, they chose a great supplier). The pita was very well made. Tzaziki was thick and had a nice full flavor and lemon bite. Everyone also scarfed down their fries. This is a great place. You can't go wrong with any dish here. You order at the counter and they will bring our your food and also take away the dishes, but there is no full table service. Remember to tip well. read more

Always a win with Hillside!!! As always, they were fast and friendly, and the food was amazing. I got the fish sandwich w/fries and my lady got the fish and chips. Fries were perfect and that fish batter... omg! Super crispy, not greasy with the bread being 100% spot on toasted and buttered. The workers are always super busy and multitasking on another level while producing awesome food. Can't wait to go back again read more

Hillside Grill - Greek chicken salad - Greek Near Me - Northborough, Massachusetts

So my experience was overall perfect! Which for me now a days feels hard to come by. My call started by asking about a lg buffalo chicken pizza. They were clear in explaining they offer one size thin crust pizza. So my next question was what type of chicken they use on the pizza and to this they said: "Whatever kind you like. We're making this for you." May not have been exactly those words to the T. Regardless, i was pleased and continued on with the buffalo chicken pizza and also asked if there was tomato sauce on the buffalo pizza and they said no, they do it good. They offered for me to have blue cheese on the side, and i said some extra ranch on the side would be great. I expressed that it was my first time trying their establishment and was eager to try their buffalo as i have found to my tastes, a lot of pizza shops don't make a "proper" 'buffalo chicken pizza'. They were glad to hear this was my first time and asked if there was anything else i would like on my pizza. I said, can't go wrong with cheesing it up :) And i also ordered an order of mozzarella sticks as well with marinara sauce i believe. I ordered takeout as it's the corona times. I went in with my kitty mask facial mask and hand sanitized. When i parked, it was an easy parking lot and clean establishment and upon entering the building was politely greeted and asked if i ordered. Then they said my food would be ready in just a few minutes. Let me tell you this... when i walked into their shop... all you can smell is authentic aromatic and tantalizing cheese that you can tell the air has been pleasantly filled with all day. I even had to interrupt the staff to tell them how amazing their restaurant smelled!! I was looking at an article they had on the wall from the newspaper which featured their Greek Mac and Cheese. I pondered the ingredients with the staff and they eagerly described the dish with a passion and i could tell they must love it because i can sense the drool forming on their taste buds describing the bubbling dish. They said a lot of people add broccoli into the mac and cheese and that sounded lovely. I love to supplement my cheese with veggies and pasta! Hahaha, post gastric bypass though; so more cheese less pasta for me! Hahaha, but do love the veggies. Anyways, so i picked up my pizza and mozzarella sticks which i paid for by card when i ordered. When i brought them to my car, i instantly knew, i put them in the back seat. Pizza on the seat and sticks on the floor so nothing would slide off of anything. Then i even took my face mask off the second before i opened my car door and as soon as i got into the car, my car was like a heavenly steamed aroma of the most perfect cheesy chickeny yeasty dinner you'd ever imagine. My drive home was delayed by texting my bf of the amazing smells and telling him to be hungry! I drove home and when i got home we ate it as it should be. We cherished this pizza as it was the perfect slice. Thank you for an amazing meal and i look forward to trying your other dishes as well! Also, i give you guys credits for the easy menu. I love it. All one sizes but not huge or tiny. All simple but you seem open to customizations within reason. You were all so kind and obviously cook your food for passion and not for the perks. I truly appreciate this. I also noticed when i was in their that the staff was so organized and put together. Thank you again for my dinner delights by the pizza slice :) Buffalo chicken pizza Mozzarella sticks Buffalo Chicken Tenders read more

The food here is amazing! We split the chicken finger appetizer and the gyro platter. Wow! So much food and so delicious. Everything was nice and fresh. Salad was crisp and delicious, but I can't recommend the chicken fingers highly enough. They are breaded so light and fluffy and with your choice of sauce... yum! The staff is also great. We were waffling about which sauce for the chicken fingers and he just told us to get both (right answer, for sure!). They made us feel so welcome and I'll definitely come by again when I'm in the area. read more

Might have been the worst pizza i have ever had. Usually any pizza is at least ok... not this. You could grab a boboli from the supermarket it would be 100 times better than what they have going in. Its all i got so cant comment on rest of their stuff, but if you cant do something at least average, rtake it off the menu. read more

Thanks to Yelp for helping me find this place ! Great service and great food. The chicken on the Caesar salad was maybe the best I've ever had. The tuna melt and onion rings were 5 stars also. Great prices, and portions were fantastic as well. Will definitely be back if/when I'm in the area. read more

Stopped here last weekend in between hockey games since it popped up in my Yelp search. Small, quaint little place that doesn't look like much from outside, or inside for that matter. However, we were greeted by the nicest gentleman who let us pick our table and took our order right away. I should say, you order at the counter, but the food is brought out to you. The fries, OMGosh the fries....yum! Love those crispy outside and just right on the inside. We also got the onion rings, good but not like the fries. My daughter got the BLT and it was huge, packed with bacon. I got the veggie wrap, and while it was not terrible, it lacked any flavor. I had some teriyaki in a little cup to dip into but it still didn't do much for it. Overall I was happy with this spot and would make a visit again if I was in the area. read more

I'm a huge fan of Med food and this place didn't disappoint. The Gyro meat sandwich was very good and quite big. The fries and onion rings were also really good. On top of that, the owner was really nice. read more

Great service and great food! Roast beef was excellent!! Would highly recommend! Family really enjoyed the food!

Food was very fresh and portions were generous. The person making our sandwiches came out from behind the counter to double check if we wanted onions, tomatoes or anything else on them. As for ambiance, it could definitely use some...a few pictures or something would be a nice addition. read more

I love this place. Asked the guy behind the counter, I assume Jimmy, for his recommendation and he recommended me the roast beef. It was great. Talked to him a bit. Really cares about what he serves. I'm not from around here. Found this place on a business trip. But every time I'm in the area, I'm coming here! read more

Hillside Grill - Jimmy's home made roast beef - Greek Near Me - Northborough, Massachusetts

Pleasing customer service, up to the mark. We ordered roast beef sandwich with onion rings and chicken souvlaki with fries.. The yummiest roast beef sandwich I ever had. No words, it's the juiciest and well spiced sandwich. I usually don't enjoy rare beef because it smells but this was not smelly and very tasty.. We asked if they could sauté the onions, they did and that was an add on for sure! The chicken souvlaki did not disappoint. It was a little bland for me personally but I think it was a well made sandwich overall. Had grilled chicken, feta, yogurt sauce and raw onions.. good for a gyro! Reading the reviews, I was thinking to myself how can the fries be any better, but they turned out exact amount of crispy.. wish they were a little saltier though.. Great Food Good Presentation Nice Service read more

My son was just there and he got a to good to go.They gave him a small bag of chips and bread with cheese in it. What a joke.

I first came here returning from Boston, it was about 30min before closing. When I asked if it was okay, there was no hesitation they were more than willing to serve me. Asked for what's good, and I sat down with a fried haddock and some onion rings. Haddock is a nice thick fillet. About a half inch, an ideal thickness for a fried fish. Too thin and the inside dries out. Too thick and you can't really cook the inside. The breading is quite thin and adds texture without distracting from the fish itself, tempura-like in that sense. They do lose a star because the fish isn't salted, or (for me) not salted enough. Yes there's flavor from the tarter sauce, lemon, and coleslaw. But each food item should always be able to stand alone, an impossible feat without a bit of salt. The fillet could barely support it's weight when you hold it from the middle, ready to crack as soon as you pick it up; it's perfect. This time around the fillet was done a bit more than I would like. But I wouldn't say it was overcooked, this was still a very enjoyable meal. Onion rings were perfect for me because they actually break properly. I am not a fan of taking one bite and being left with a breading carcass as the rest of the onion is ripped from it's home. Coleslaw was better than average with that ever pivotal celery seed providing a nice zing against the fat of the mayo. Tarter sauce was nothing special to me, simply mayo, relish, and maybe some lemon juice? Yummy at the very least. Overall, love coming back here for that family establishment feel and the food is genuinely good. Give this place a chance, I'm sure you'll enjoy your meal here! read more

Never fails to disappoint. There are no bad choices for lunch. My roast beef sandwich was piled high with tender roast beef. The French Fries were cooked perfectly. Not everyone cooks fries that are crunchy on the outside, but tender on the inside. Many a good sandwich has been done in by less than adequate fries. The fact I got a homemade cookie made my day even better. read more

Lots of food at a good price. The owners are very friendly and conversational.

I must have got a totally different pastrami sandwich, because the meat was dry and the Cole slaw too sweet. The gyro was okay. I can't even remember what our other dish was. Sorry. read more

Wonderful. Simple. Straightforward. Asked what I should have, what was good here, I had never been here before. Got two responses - try the roast beef, or the fish & chips. I went with the roast beef sandwich. Asked them to make it the way they would recommend. Toasted bun, lettuce tomatoes provolone cheese, mayo. Lean and rare roast beef. This sandwich was perfect. My daughter had a kids pepperoni pizza. She loved it. It's rare to see a restaurant maintain a 5 star rating on Yelp with nearly 200 reviews. Now I know why. The warm welcome from the owners was genuine and appreciated, you don't see that enough. Keep it up! I would tell others to come here. Thanks guys for a great lunch! read more

While shopping in the area, I looked up reviews on somewhere close and stumbled upon this gem. From the look of the outside of the building, If I was driving by, I would not have tried this place. It just looks like your typical eatery that makes a whole assortment of items and none of them are near spectacular. THANKFULLY, I found this place by accident on yelp and the reviews are fantastic. How many places have a solid 5 stars? Not many. I came here with my mom and son and were greeted at the door by an older gentleman (possibly an owner?) who stood and talked with me for a few minutes about my 2 month old son. Every single employee was very very nice. That made things even more enjoyable on top of the great food. I got the chicken souvlaki. It was super flavorful and I appreciate that they actually baked the pita it was wrapped in. *brownie points*. My mom got the roast beef sandwich and said she would absolutely get it again. For around $12.50 a person (that includes a can of soda and both dishes came with fries), it is a great deal and totally worth coming back for again and again. Note to self: don't judge a book by its cover. read more

We have lived in Northborough for 3 years and have been unhappy with every steak and cheese sub we have bought. We heard good things about the Hillside Grille and decided to give it a try. WOW this was the best steak and cheese my wife and I have had in years. The steak was cooked to perfection and real steak to not ground mush like some of the other places we tried. This even came with French fries which were great and hot even for delivery or pickup. My step son ordered a turkey club and he was in love with it. We found a gem in Hillside and more frequent visitors and expending our menu options. Keep up the good food Hillside!!!!! read more
