Hilltop House Restaurant & Catering

Went to the hilltop for the brunch buffet. Some items were better than others. Overall the food was good. The prime rib was delicious. Crab legs were a bit salty for my taste, but I saw several folks enjoying them. The eggs Benedict were ok. Only because they sat too long, however the egg was running and delicious. The English muffin was the bad part of the dish.

Too hard and chewy. The staff was polite and attentive. The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. The price for the buffet was about 25 which is reasonable for the quality of options they offer.

Was greeted by an unattended door waited for about five minutes to be greeted by a Blase hostess. Was seated and didn't get greeted by the waiter till about 10 Minutes in and wasn't told how the brunch buffet works. I was completely UNDERWHELMED by the selection food was bland and poorly organized. For the price I paid and the 20%added gratuity I feel I deserve a refund and a apology!

This place doesn't know fresh nor how to properly conduct a brunch buffet the atmosphere was staler than the English muffins for the eggs Benedict. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worse enemy!

Absolute upscale deliciousness. Took my daughter for Sunday Brunch because my husband and i tried for lunch yesterday but unfortunately they don't have lunch hours. They asked if we had reservations, didn't know we needed one, but they were able accommodate us thankfully. Wasn't expecting the gorgeous setup buffet they had. All of it was perfectly cooked. The staff was attentive as well. Great price as well. Definitely will return for supper and breakfast again to this elegant setting restaurant.

Lovely lunch in the garden room. Quiche, wonderful soup and fruit for $11. I mention the price because some consider Hilltop House too expensive. You get a lot of great food for the money with attentive service and lovely atmosphere! Also fried green tomatoes and crab cake appetizer, which we split was wonderful! Will be back.

The food was wonderful! Especially loved the omelet and Mac n cheese! The servers were marvelous and very attentive. I will definitely return!

Fantastic Sunday Brunch! We enjoyed a delicious Palm Sunday lunch. Excellent full buffet with prime rib, shrimp, salads and all the southern fixing! Delicious! Wonderful hosts too! Friendly staff and owners are attentive to every detail. Yum we highly recommend!

I can't currently give an adequate review because the menu I ate from was a limited menu. For atmosphere and ambiance its top notch. My first visit will definitely not be my last. I am attributing the poor quality of food to the fact that I was with a large group for a Christmas party and it was late. However given it was still prays for the cold could've attempted to make the orders correct, the steak was cold and not cooked as requested. Now their cheesecake is to die for. It is beyond delicious. I will be returning to see how other foods taste.

Sunday Brunch buffet.overall is terrible; it's quantity over quality! I've been to some really great Sunday brunches but this isn't one of them. Many items taste sooo dry, over cooked, reheated and/or freezer burned. The fried chicken was so tough and dry it was inedible.obviously wasn't eve close to fresh. Tried the eggs Benedict, the yolk was as hard as a boiled egg, on top or the English muffin was hard/burnt American type cheese.inedible. Yuck! Boiled peel & eat shrimp was mushy from being cooked so far in advance and stored in the cooler for who knows how long. Biscuits were hard and dry even after gravy tasted old & not fresh.

I looked at my spouse and said "what do you think.she replied, "Awful" as I looked at her plate and she had eaten only one bite of each item on it. I guess the attraction here is the "all you can eat" mentality & that more is better. and for many folks that's OK.go back and fill your plate 5 or 5 times. For my $38.95 plus 20% automatically added to the check for gratuity I'd rather have a small portion of tasty fresh food.

Of course I would tip the staff but I don't think 20% should be automatically added to the check as a forced policy. This was my 3rd time there and it was definitely the last. Looks good from far but far from good! No more buffets for me. On a positive note, the staff was very hospitable and accommodating especially with a full house of people!

Came here for dinner on Saturday night. Very quiet. It's a very cute place and I liked the atmosphere. However, the food was only ok, and definitely overpriced. I ordered Chicken Marsala and it was hmmm.ok. Wasn't bad but I can't give any "OMG it is so good!" type of comments to this dish.

Had lunch today at Hilltop! We arrived close to the end of the lunch buffet and still found every tray full and a great selection. Each item we tried was delicious! Shrimp and grits were outstanding! The dessert was unbelievable. A delicious strawberry cake and also chocolate cake both were excellent. It was a great experience and although we live in Raleigh we plan to come back to enjoy it again as well as come for Sunday brunch.
