| - I have only been to Hillside Spot for dinner, so my review is just for that, and I fully recommend it. Three stars is a good rating, and that's what Hillside Spot is, consistently good.
The interior design reminds me of Liberty Market, which is a good thing, I find it inviting and friendly, it feels comfortable, though there is nothing particularly special about it.
As for the food, like the interior, it kind of reminds me of Liberty Market, which again is good. The gallo guacamole is made to order and has a nice sweetness to it and I like it topped with the cotija cheese, the croque monsieur is like a guilty pleasure, it is a rich and very tasty sandwich with beschamel sauce and a fried egg on top. My favorite dish however is the baked chicken cacciatore. Please order it. I don't even want to write about it, I'll get all flustered. Hillside also has a good beer selection.
I used "good" a lot in this review because that's the best way to explain it. I certainly think everyone should try it out, I think you'll like it, but don't expect anything grand, go expecting a good meal, and know you're supporting a local business, always a terrific thing to do.
