First, how did I hear about this gem? I was dining at Giovanni's Brooklyn Eats, two nights ago,our table next to us who are fellow foodies were talking about how they are loyal patrons of Giovanni's. I state " I know Giovanni @20 years and am also a loyal patron.. We traded favorites as in best pizza, bakery and diners. She asked me " Hey, have you been to Hilltop Tavern?" I said, "Not yet". She gave it rave reviews and as she spoke, I was already bookmarking in Yelp. Today I decided to take a trip to Prospect Park West and see for myself. Second, I'm also always on the hunt for a great turkey burger and Hilltop offers grass fed turkey burger. Lastly, I have dined at the owner's restaurant, Alchemy, and enjoyed the turkey burger there as well. The interior of Hilltop reminds me of an old fashioned diner that is my kind of place: cozy bar, quiet ambience, menu that offers delicious options that will satisfy any palate. I read that the benches are pews from a church in New Jersey. The exposed brick wall , wooden tables, and gallery style wall art make it so inviting. There is a Lunch menu that offers soup, half sammy, salad and fries served until 4pm. The soup choices today were Potato leek or lentils. There are comfort food choices such as BLT, crispy chicken sandwich,,grilled cheese, omelette and salads ( Butternut squash, yum) Kevin, the owner, served my turkey burger deluxe to me. ( very nice!) The turkey burger is a generous size, served with a delicious side salad dressed and fries. I dived right in and never looked back.. this is a perfectly seasoned juicy, very important as TB can be dry, burger. The fries were plentiful and crispy. I savored every bite. I told Olive, my wonderful server, that finding a great TB is hard and I schlepped from Bay Ridge ( not a long schlep, lol) to dine here. Now, of course, I will be the one who raves about HT as I am drafting this YELP review. The other reason HT is a gem: located near 3rd Street entrance to Prospect Park. All I can say to Georgia and Kevin, three times the charm! They also own Hamilton on Fort Hamilton Parkway. Looking for a fourth location??? You know I'm going to say it: Bay Ridge? Signing off as future loyal Hilltop Tavern patron. Hilltop Tavern 256 Prospect Park West F or G to 15th Street Prospect Park stop, 3 minute walk.

From what I was told the items in this review are currently only served at their pop ups, but check out the menu at the actual restaurant. I am certain that the food there is phenomenal. Ok so first off let me say that this family is awesome. They are all not just cordial but so welcoming. I saw nothing but friendly smiles, and felt great vibes. I had the pleasure of meeting Sage and she gave me the story of the business. Please go out and support small businesses, especially women owned, minority businesses. I will say that the man, who was working with them is the nicest guy in the world. Now on to the food. This hot lobster roll with butter and Thai seafood sauce was on point! I am not a fan of mayo but I am sure that the garlic mayo takes this lobster roll to another level. Normally I only like my lobster roll with melted butter but the Thai seafood sauce gave it this citrusy , slightly tangy flavor that went well with the lobster. And the lobster roll itself is just beautiful. (I tend to eat with my eyes. Lol) I was truly craving a lobster roll and I am so glad that you all were there. I have never had fried basa, but it was prepared to perfection. I really loved the batter, and the fish was not over seasoned. The fish was light, not too flakey, and tasted great with the garlic chili sauce. My only regret is that I took it to go. It would have better to sit and enjoy the basa When I return to NYC I will make Baby's Buns and Buckets my first stop. I really want to try some of their other menu items. I pray that you all will have continued success!

I have been purchasing food from Sterling Crust Restaurant at 747 Nostrand Ave and St. John's Place…read morefor over 20 years. For the past year and a half, the standard of food isn't as good as it used to be. But my mean issue is what you get for your purchase. What caused me to write this review, was a purchased my husband brought home, of which was a fish dinner about two days ago, early July 2025. Upon checking what he brought home, it was a fish, with some burnt onions that wasn't fit for consumption, and some rice and peas with gravy from one of the meat, go figure. Mind you, this cost my husband $19.00. I called Sterling Crust Restaurant to complain about such unacceptable service. An employee, who identified himself by the name, Duane, upon asking. I explained the reason for my call. He immediately had the audacity to get upset and said, "you are the only person who complains, and that you brought back a soup and got an oxtail dinner that cost $22.00," of which he didn't think I should have given, though it was this very "Duane" who was the one who took the extremely spicy jerk pork dinner at a cost of approximately $16-$19 and the soup of which was consisted of bones and broth water at a cost of $9.00 that I returned, a couple of weeks ago in June 2025. The manger was the one who told me in the present of this Duane to choose what I wanted, and I chose the oxtail dinner. I walked into the restaurant last year to return food my husband purchased that wasn't to the standard of the cost. I observed someone screaming at the time I didn't know they were employees, he was screaming at about the standard of the food and loosing customers. At the time I didn't know he was the owner, he spoke to me, and I told him why I was there. Apparently, he changed employees and manager. On two separate occasions, in the past three months, I spoke with the evening manager, over the phone twice prior and three days ago, about such issues. Purchased of Soup, that's consistent of bones and broth water, yet being charged $9. 00, purchased of jerk pork that's overbearingly spicy that wasn't fit for consumption. I used to throw out the food, but decided this must be addressed to the restaurant because cost of approximately $20 for most of the food, but never get what I paid for. You will be served some rice, and whatever meat you choose, that's it. Not only that, you would have to be the one to ask for some salad, of which is substantial a few pieces of chopped up lettuce, a piece of tomato and two pieces of cucumbers, a small amount of cabbage, if they have any left. It's unacceptable to be charged such outrageous prices but get nothing but some rich and the meat you selected. Not My observation of this employee, Duane in person and after speaking with him on the phone, is an absolute arrogant, disrespectful person, of whom I would rather not be in his presence. So we, as I already told my husband that will no longer be purchasing any more food from restaurant, after purchasing food from Sterling Crust Restaurant at 747 Nostrand Ave and St. John's Place, after such a long time. I no longer trust purchasing from them because of their service. These disgruntled employees failed to realize, without the customers, they don't have a job. Moreover, there's a tremendous number of restaurants in New York to purchase food.

My dish was huge. The plate itself was huge. They gave me a ton of basmati rice! I loved the smell of the spices and the bursting flavors. I was only able to eat maybe 1/3 of it but I enjoyed the leftover later. I think this is such good value. The place is not big but has a cozy home feeling to it. I recommend!
