Offering delicious American cuisine this restaurant is a much try. We tried ample items on the menu and they all were delicious. The ribs were fall off the bone. The burger was tender and juicy and the apps were great as well. Above the food though, the service is top notch. My martini has been sitting for a while so our waitress bought over a chilled glass to replace my warm one. Couldn't recommend more. read more

I was recently taken to Hillstone for administrative professional's day. Growing up in the area, I've always known Hillstone to be always top notch. I will advise to make a reservation as it gets super busy during lunchtime. This restaurant seems to be quite a hit for business meetings/corporate celebrations. We learned our lesson the previous visit. There is a small area for parking but nine times out of ten I am valeting as it fills up fast. We were seated promptly, and the staff was very attentive. My manager and I started off with the grilled artichokes. These are seasonal so, catch them while you can! Super flavorful and perfect light starter. I decided to go with Ding's Crispy Chicken Sandwich. Wow did this sandwich blow me away. Everything just came together so nicely. This sandwich features a buttermilk-fried chicken breast, Swiss cheese, mayo, tomato, and a kale slaw. On the menu, it had mentioned spicy, but to my surprise, it was just more of a light kick a bit of sweet and savory mix. Actually might have been the "cherry on top" for me to complete this sandwich. I chose to get fries as my side they are shoestring, not my favorite but you can also pick a couple other sides as well. Might give those a try next time. Overall, wonderful experience as always. Definitely a favorite go to when my manager is in town. read more

I stopped in after the Winter Park Arts Festival, happened to snag a seat at the bar, highly recommend a reservation if you're planning on dinning here, it's always busy. I ordered a traditional salad with chicken and an apple Cobbler. Their salads are really good with the honey mustard or buttermilk dressing, the chicken though wasn't that good, no flavor. The cobbler is delicious, they don't always have it available on the menu so grab it when they do! Service was great and met a nice couple at the bar. read more

Hillstone Restaurant - Half eaten Apple cobbler - New American Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

First time trying Hillstone and the atmosphere alone is worth the visit. The restaurant sits right on the lake in Winter Park and the view really sets the tone for the whole experience. It has that perfect mix of upscale but still relaxed, making it a great spot for a date night or dinner with friends. The food was solid and well prepared. Everything tasted fresh and you can tell they focus on quality ingredients and consistency, which I can definitely appreciate. Service was okay not bad. Our server handled everything we needed, but the experience felt a little more transactional than warm or engaging. Overall, the beautiful setting and reliable food make Hillstone a place I'd come back to, especially for the lake views. read more

This is not the review I wanted to be writing for one of my favorite restaurants in Orlando, but this visit did not stand up to our many positive past experiences and I sincerely hope it was a one off. My husband and I were dining on Monday the day after valentines, so they were slammed and understandably the service was much slower than usual. We ordered spinach artichoke dip and rosemary focaccia to start, both of which were superb as always. For dinner my husband ordered the burger and fries and I ordered the filet medium. By the time they came we had been there nearly and hour and a quarter, despite not having drinks and ordering starters as soon as we sat. The waiter dropped them off and then went to take orders at a large and needy table behind us. As I am nursing I cut through my filet to check the temp and was shocked to find it decidedly rare, not medium. I sat waiting for our waiter to come back but he was occupied taking orders and did not glance our way. After about 10 minutes, as I was famished, we waved over another waitress passing by and she agreed to take the steak back. She took my plate and said they would bring me an all new one. We also asked if my husband's fries could be replaced as they arrived completely cold and dry. It was quite awhile before my filet returned, and I was brought back the same meat on a new plate. That is fine but I was a bit surprise as the way she worded it when she took it made it sound like she'd be bringing a fresh one. Due to being recooked it was a bit burnt on the exterior and dry on the interior but I was happy to have it back and began to eat it. A couple bites in I noticed a short hair on my fork. This is embarrassing to admit but I was hungry so I removed it and kept eating. The next bite also had a hair, so I cut again and sure enough the third bite had another one! My hair is extremely long and my husbands is extremely short, the hairs were definitely not our own. At that point it didn't feel sanitary to eat and we asked to speak to a manager. He offered to bring us a new filet, an extra starter of focaccia in lieu of replacement sides, and to not charge us for the filet. I appreciated the effort but to my shock the filet again came out quite rare. He watched me cut it and at my hesitation asked if I would prefer it medium well instead of medium. Honestly that might be what bothered me most about the night - him implying that it WAS medium when it was definitely rare. I said it was okay as at that point we had been there for two hours and we needed to get home to our babysitter, so I decided to just reheat it at home. Overall, while we appreciate that they were extremely busy, it was not the level of cleanliness, service, or taste that we have come to expect from hillstone. We probably won't return for a while and when we do we hope things will have settled back to prior stellar experiences. read more

If I could give this place more stars, I would. I was waiting for a special occasion to visit this restaurant. My partner and I were looking for somewhere special to celebrate our 10th anniversary and several people told us this place was a wonderful spot to celebrate an anniversary. Of course it was pouring when we pulled in, but they have valet parking and the valet got me out of the car then let me take his umbrella into the restaurant. We had a reservation and were seated right away. The seater told us our server would be with us shortly but took our drink orders. I ordered the crisp martini and it was so delightful. When our server arrived, she suggested the spinach and artichoke dip. I was very impressed. It came with sour cream and salsa which threw me off, but I actually really enjoyed having other things to dip the chips in. While we were enjoying our appetizer, the weather improved and the sun was starting to set. Because this was our first visit, we asked the server if we could leave the table to go outside and take a photo, which is allowed. We were outside for maybe 10 minutes. When we returned to our table, the server came over with a frozen martini glass and transferred my drink into. Wow! I have never had something like this happen before. Literally so impressed. For dinner, I ordered the pan-asian noodle salad with barbecue pork. The portion was huge! It took me three days to eat at all. So good! I'm not a huge pork person, but I liked it with all the flavors in the salad. Since this was our first visit, we wanted dessert, but we were so full. We got their key lime pie to go. Unlike any other pie I've had! The crust was like crushed up graham crackers and the flavor was anazing! read more

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! read more

Hillstone Restaurant - Bar - New American Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

Hillstone Restaurant located in the Winter Park is a gorgeous little Mid-Century Modern restaurant located directly on a lake. If you are lucky enough to be seated in a window seat you'll get sweeping views of the water (imagine how gorgeous this is at golden hour and sunset) We were there to celebrate our 6th micro wedding anniversary and initially requested a table on the patio but the winter storm had other plans. They did accommodate us by making sure we did get a window seat which was really sweet of them. Staff: Staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and checked in us just often enough but not *too much*. I nursed my martini a bit and when our server noticed my glass had thawed she brought a new chilled glass and switched them out. No prompting at all. The vibe: This is a Mid-Century Modern inspired steakhouse. It's moody. It's masculine. Items sexy in a sort of 21 century Mad Men kind of way. Perfect for a date night & would make an excellent first date if that's the vibe you are going for. But it is dark so he warmed. And for the fashion lovers-don't wait to take our outfit selfie there. We did this and it ended up being far too dark. It was quite loud as there are very few soft surfaces so be prepared. The Order: "Crisp Martini" (9/10): the house martini. Gin based. They add lime instead of orange & a bit of St. Germane and it was delicious. I will be trying to recreate this one at home "Hillstone Negroni" (5/10): my go to. Any time there is a special Negroni I like to try it. This could have been better. While the presentation was lovely, it wasn't mixed well and about half way through the flavors broke down. Once stirred it got better but I should t need to do that & don't know that I would order this again as a result. "Cheeseburger" (7/10): my husband initially ordered a steak but change his mind last min when he just got a craving for a burger. He ordered as is-no changes. He had no complaints other than it was comically tall and had to be squished to be eaten (see photo) making the juice run out all over the bottom bun. He said he would order again French Dip" (6/10): A go-to order of mine. I love a French dip. This was sadly a little underwhelming. It wasn't bad, but you couldn't taste the cheese at all & I kept checking to see if it was even there at all. The meet & dressing were well flavored though and the bread held up to the dressing which is not always the case. If I ordered this again I would asked for extra cheese. Good portion though. I ordered with a side of fries and they were very good. "Key Lime Pie" (10/10) : Another favorite of mine. This was excellent. I prefer my key lime pie to be very tangy with a lot of lime flavor & Custer based rather than whipped. That's how I make Mike and that exactly how they do theirs. It was delicious. The crust was thick and had a rich nutty flavor. It did not crumble. There wasn't *too much* whipped cream. This was perfection. We almost ordered another. I was a little disappointed that there was no recognition of us celebrating our anniversary. I go in for that kind of thing. Obviously they are by no means obligated to do anything and some people may prefer that but I like a little notice of it as there is so little occasion to celebrate anything these days. Not even a so much as a "happy anniversary". I'll give them credit that we had to change our reservation same day so that note may have gotten lost which I think is reasonable assumption. We will absolutely be back. I want to book durring sunset and on the patio as planned. I think it would be an excellent spot for a first date if you want to impress them, or a date night. read more

Best experience and service! This charming restaurant truly delivers an unforgettable dining experience from start to finish. Start your evening with a cocktail or a glass of wine while taking in the sunset on the dock. Their martinis are some of the best I've ever had, and they go above and beyond to make sure every sip stays perfectly chilled with a fresh glass each time. The food was incredible. The salmon, Caesar salad and steak that were all absolute standouts, and I'm already planning to come back for more. Our waitress was so attentive, friendly, and genuinely cared that we had everything we needed. The service was outstanding, and every detail felt thoughtful and intentional. Everything you could want in a restaurant. Great food, amazing service, and a warm, welcoming vibe. Can't recommend it enough! read more

This spot was the perfect place to celebrate an anniversary. The service was amazing, and the ambiance was very nice. We had a table right against the window, and we were able to watch a beautiful sunset as we dined. We started with the Spinach Artichoke Dip, which was incredible. It was very creamy with a great cheese pull and big chunks of artichokes. I also loved that it comes with salsa and sour cream, so you can play around with different combos. They brought us out more chips when we ran out, which was great. I ordered the Jackrabbit to drink, which was refreshing and delicious. I ended up ordering another one since I liked it so much. I do wish they had an espresso martini on the menu. The Veggie Burger was great, but the patty did fall apart as I ate it. I have come to expect that with pretty much every veggie burger though, so it's not a big deal. The fries were very skinny and were yummy when topped with the house-made fry seasoning they gave me. This place is very pricey, but I think it's totally worth it for special occasions. The service and the ambiance was just so good! read more

We visited Hillstone on a Sunday around 6:20pm. We had a reservation, but we were early so we sat at the bar in the meantime to enjoy some drinks. We were showed to our table a little before our reservation time, and then we ordered promptly. The service here was excellent start to finish. I was super impressed with the entire crew here. The inside of the restaurant is also beautiful, with its open back wall and lake view. We started with the brussel sprouts which were cooked very nicely and topped with a citrus aioli. This was a simple and well balanced dish, but I think it would make a better side than starter. For mains, I got a special which was an ahi tuna ponzu, and my companion got the arctic char. The tuna ponzu was fantastic, but it was served with a raw tomato with some basil on top which just felt off with the flavor palette. The arctic char was tasty, but the bottom was over blackened. It was extremely bitter with the bottom, so that was mostly left on the plate. It was served with some fresh parsley on the side, which probably would've been a little more useful if it had been chopped. Both mains were served with what can only be called a mountainous side of coleslaw. The coleslaw was good, but there was just so much of it that to eat all of it would mean not tasting anything else on the plate just due to the amount of coleslaw. It felt like the items on the plate were not very intentional (including the garnishes I mentioned earlier). For dessert, we got the apple cobbler which was delicious. It could've used maybe a little more vanilla ice cream, but it was amazing. I'd definitely order that again. I'd be open to trying hillstone again, especially since I've heard great things about the steaks there. I was still impressed with the ahi tuna that I had, but I can say for certain that next time I'll be asking what the accompaniments are and seeing if I can sub out the coleslaw. read more

Visually appealing, but fell short where it mattered. The ambiance was beautiful--very intimate and thoughtfully done. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to it. I had the ribs and my husband ordered the snapper, and neither of us were impressed. The pricing is more in line with fine dining, but the quality felt closer to diner-level. Honestly, everything we ordered tasted better at Metro Diner, at about a third of the price. read more

Hillstone Restaurant - Cute - New American Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

We arrived to a lovely ambiance despite how crowded it was on a Wednesday. The service was excellent as well. Appetizers were deviled eggs and jalapeño queso. Deviled eggs were a twist on traditional, a little on the sweet side and the filling did not actually take up the cavity of the egg. I see the direction they were going, however this was a miss. Queso was more stiff than I was expected and the palate landed smoother with this one. It offered balance and texture without pretentiousness. Entree I had a center cut 7oz that was cooked and seared perfectly. On a more critical note it could have had a more prominent pepper crusting. The protein was accompanied by potatoes calcannon and broccoli. The potatoes were a good attempt, but a miss for me. Teetering on borderline bland. The broccoli was entirely underwhelming and old. Clearly should have been thrown out as it had turned. My partner ordered an ahi tuna special with coleslaw and her meal and found a balance between the protein and the coleslaw that was complimentary to the palate. Desserts I ordered their interpretation of Apple Cobbler with walnuts. Not the best effort I have seen, but passable with a generous offering of walnuts. All in all the service was outstanding as well as the ambiance. The menu can use a little work. I always appreciate a small menu as the expectation is that what it is that you offer is excellence over quantity. I do not feel that the mark was entirely hit. Look forward to trying again on a slower night for more attention on the plate.. 6.8/10 read more

Loved the decor in the restaurant and being able to watch the sun set from our dinner table was very romantic. The staff were super nice and even took pictures of my bf and I when asked while we waited for our table to be ready. The margarita I got was delicious. For my food I got the Ding's crispy chicken sandwich, which very filling. The slaw added a great crunch to the sandwich. The only thing was each piece kept falling apart when I tried to each it. However, I'd definitely get this meal again as it was very tasty. The ice cream with hot pourable chocolate was good and standard. I can't wait to go back and try more items from their menu! read more

We had another five star experience at Hillstone for lunch. Our reservation was at 1 PM (always make a reservation) and we were seated promptly. There were only a couple of tables open (bar was also full) at the time and the place was absolutely humming. My wife had the filet mignon and I had the fried snapper. My snapper was a generous portion and was cooked perfectly and quite tasty along with their unique and tasty version of tartar sauce (better). I substituted fries for the seasonal vegetable. The filet mignon was one of the best my wife has had in quite some time (as good as Eddie V's) and cooked perfectly at medium rare. The broccoli was also cooked perfectly and quite tasty. Sarah B. was our server and she was spot on perfect, friendly, and great cadence of service. Hillstone is such a classy environment resulting in this A+ experience. read more

We came by for a quick weekday lunch date and while the food was good I'm not sure it's for me. Firstly, this place is beautifully maintained. I love the view of the water in the back and the overall classic decor. They also have an open kitchen so you can see the chefs cooking the food. Every server greeted us with a smile and was willing to help with anything we needed. The food came out quicker than I expected for this kind of restaurant but I was very happy since it was lunch time. Our roast beef was cooked perfectly in the French dip sandwich but the au jus was lacking flavor. I will say that my salad was tossed with just the right amount of dressing. Overall, I enjoyed my experience but if I came back for lunch it would likely only be for a business meeting. This is a very serious (and dare I say stuffy) restaurant where men have to take off their hats. We weren't offended but in my opinion that's a bit dated. They were also lacking diversity so based on the vibes this place isn't quite right for me. I will have to stop in for dinner to see if the vibe is different but wanted to share for those who like to be in a more relaxed environment. read more

Everything we ate from the focaccia(not pictured) to the brownie we would order again.

Hillstone absolutely delivered an incredible dining experience. It is perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. They were able to accommodate our larger party with a reservation. The food was beyond delicious. I have to give a special shoutout to the Emerald Kale and Chicken Salad, it was honestly one of the best salads I've ever had. The kale was crisp and fresh, perfectly balanced with great textures and great flavor. The drink menu had a great variety, and the appetizers were just as impressive. Every dish we tried was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. Service was attentive without being overbearing, they always made sure our water cups were filled. This was my second time at Hillstone, I try to make it a point to bring friends and family who visit from out of town here because it's always such a pleasant experience.

This restaurant did not disappoint. First time here and it was very busy. But the service was impeccable and we were not waiting at all. Appetizer of salmon dip was delicious, crab cakes were very rich (too rich that I couldn't finish it). The only question I had was the dress code. My husband and I dressed up but we saw others in shorts? Seemed to conflict with what's on the website in terms of dress code.

My family and I visited Hillstone for lunch, and it was a great experience overall. We had reservations, which I definitely recommend--check-in was smooth, and we were seated within minutes. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and she did a great job of walking us through the specials. The food was excellent across the board--everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. I have to give a special shoutout to the key lime pie--and this is coming from someone who doesn't even like key lime pie. It was absolutely phenomenal! If there's one area where Hillstone could step things up, it's the cocktails. For a restaurant that leans upscale, I expected a bit more in terms of quality and presentation. The wine selection was solid, but the cocktails didn't quite measure up. One major improvement they could make is investing in craft ice, especially for drinks like an Old Fashioned. It's a small detail, but one that makes a big difference. All in all, we had a lovely lunch and would definitely return--just maybe skip the cocktails next time. read more

I recently visited Hillstone Restaurant Group, and while the location offers an incredible view and the service was excellent, the overall experience fell short of what I expect from a fine-dining restaurant -- especially for the price. The cocktails were honestly disappointing. A Moscow Mule was served in what felt like a cheap Dollar General-style glass, and the Old Fashioned came in the same type of basic glassware. On top of that, both drinks had regular machine ice. There was absolutely nothing "fancy" about the presentation -- except the bill. For a restaurant positioning itself as upscale, cocktail presentation matters, and this missed the mark completely. The food was okay, but nothing memorable or worth the premium pricing. Beautiful view and great service, yes -- but weak cocktails and average food made this experience underwhelming overall. (mostly for the view and staff) read more

This is a staple here in Winter Park. It is on Lake Killarney and has a beautiful view of the lake from anywhere inside the restaurant. Just gorgeous. We come here often and extremely surprised I've never left a review. This is hands down the best filet we've ever had. It is always perfect! The crab cakes were a new off menu item and they were delicious. They were packed with real crab meat and little filler. Just wonderful! The Cole slaw they were served with was also delicious. When we come we sit at the bar because that is the best service in the entire place. Zach was a great bartender and Katie is always on point. The signature dishes that we have come to love have changed as of late. The mashed potatoes now have green onions and other greens. Hopefully they'll change as they continue to evolve their menu. If you've never been, this is a nice place to have a date and enjoy a filet. Hands down amazing. read more

My friend recommended this place so we decided to give it a try. Made a reservation online on their website. They have a huge parking lot and also have valet available. It's right next to the Trader Joe's shopping center. We were seated promptly as soon as we arrived and everyone was dressed nice. We got a beautiful view of the late. Our waitress was very sweet and nice. Chelsea. I got a aperol spritz and it was refreshing and delicious. We started off with the smoked salmon appetizer, and wow it was delicious. A must order! For the main I got the ribs which came with two sides so I got the fries and the kale salad. Ribs were fall off the bones, had food flavors and fries were good and salad was amazing! My hubby got the fried chicken sandwich and damn! This was a sandwich. Whatever they put in there with that bread! Best chicken sandwich! For dessert we got the ice cream sundae, the perfect end. They make their own fudge, the candied pecans was out of the world! The service at this place is just fantastic, water glass is never empty and everyone helps out. I highly recommend this place!

The ambiance here is very calming and intimate. The lights are dimmed inside, and there is usually jazz music playing in the background. **Parking:** You can choose to valet or park in the parking lot for free. If it's busy, you may need to valet. However, we never have an issue finding parking. **Reservations:** Reservations are not accepted here. I don't mind this, as it's always been worth the wait. The food and environment make it worthwhile. Usually, there is about a 1-hour wait during busy times or on weekends; it could be a bit longer, so it's best to come earlier. On New Year's Eve, they do take reservations, which is lovely. I've been the past two years, and it's always a treat to have dinner here before ringing in the new year. The food is incredibly tasty! I have tried almost the entire menu, and everything is crafted well. My go-to dish is the Hawaiian ribeye! It's savory and sweet, melting in your mouth (I order it medium well). I pair it with creamed corn and colcannon potatoes (mashed potatoes)--a must-try.

This place still never disappoints. Hard to order something here and not be good. I'm a meat lover and I'm still in love with their emerald kale salad and chicken. Can you take it to go.. no. Will the police if you try..maybe...Karen. Can you take some out as leftovers...yes, but hard chance you'll not eat it it in one seating. Is it worth the hype?...no, it beats the hype and then some. Wife and I came for lunch and both ordered the salad and didn't say one word to each other. It was so good and looked so delicious the patron next to us at the bar asked and ordered the same thing. In fact, he took a bite and said, "Are you kidding me?!?!" To wash it down I had their bloody Mary which is a no frills straight to point bloody Mary which I love them for and still think is best in Orlando. To start our lunch we had deviled eggs which is the perfect pairing to the salad. Overall, place still one of the best in Orlando. Make the reservation! read more
