Diner-style eating with a wide menu ranging from burgers to sandwiches to salads and several different entrees. Fried clams and oysters appear to be a specialty of the house. Walking in to the vestibule is a cooler displaying some of their specials - the chef salad plate must be a foot wide and appears to contain more "stuff" than lettuce.
As delicious as that looked, I wasn't in a salad mood today. I went with a corned beef sandwich, which claimed to have a half pound of meat in it on grilled rye bread. It turned out to be less than that and had unadvertised (swiss?) cheese, but was still very tasty. I skipped the fries and had their potato salad, which was creamy and spicy and had some nice large chunks of potato. Unfortunately, they were out of spicy brown mustard and I had to settle for dijon.
My coworker went with the chicken cordon bleu sandwich. Three thick slices of ham and cheese on top of a chicken breast that was larger than the bun. He had the fries and I was glad I skipped them because they were just the standard plain crinkle cut fries and weren't worth the calories.
Both sandwiches also came with a small bowl of cole slaw (didn't taste home-made) and a slim pickle spear. The service was good and our server refilled our drinks a couple of times. The restaurant was a little on the chilly side - possibly overcompensating for the 80 degree heat wave outside.
While we were waiting for the waitress to take our check, we spotted another server bringing out a club sandwich that was a tall stack of meat and cheese and veggies on toast, of course cut into quarters. It looked excellent and if I am back in the neighborhood and visit Hill Top, I'll have that.
Excellent food and one of the few restaurants in the area that is neither Mexican (had that for lunch yesterday) or a chain like Jack-in-the-Box or Bojangles. I'd recommend skipping the standard fare and enjoy Hill Top.
