We love so much about the Hills!!!! We are offering a little constructive criticism only because it helps! My husband got the fired chicken sandwich which he had once before and loved. This time the bun was burnt and the chicken was tough - not at all like the first one he had. Again, great place and we will come back but consistency is key!

Ordered 2 whitefish and 1 perch dinner. Fish was perfect. Portion size great. Baked potato was great size and cooked perfectly. Lobster bisque soup was good, as well as side salad, hush puppies, and asparagus. Service was timely, friendly, and accommodating. Food came out of kitchen in an appropriate amount of time. Definitely will return.

We had 3 orders of macaroni and cheese with pulled pork and all 3 of us enjoyed it very much. Nice people and waitress.

Absolutely fantastic place! The food here walks a beautiful line between fresh and familiar. We came for brunch around noon, but the rest of their menu looks pretty good too. We got chicken and biscuits as well as the stuffed French toast. The batter for the chicken was perfect (seasoned well, crispy, and used fresh oil) and the texture of the biscuits was also great, serving with the pickles as an excellent contrast to the chicken. The whipped cream and berries were the perfect pairing for the French toast and weren't too sweet! Our waitress was also really friendly. This place is a hidden gem! Check it out!

Great restaurant with awesome food! They had many food options to choose from and a great lake feel atmosphere. Their Fish Fry Fridays are busy, but the fish is delicious. You can see the Frish Fry Friday's menu with the picture I attached. The service was a little slow but as expected when they are super busy. They have awesome cheese bread (I added bacon) and Ruben sandwiches also. I do miss some of the food options that The Patriot had, like the loaded tater tots, but I think this place will add to their menu as they get more established. Overall a great restaurant that I would recommend trying!
