Reviews for Hills Place BAR & LOUNGE in Brooklyn, NY
I'll be fair and give this place 3 stars. I'm half nigerian and food here is good. Taste like it's from home. But every thing... else is a joke. Horrible service!! Walked in was greeted but wasn't told where to sit down, so we sat ourselves down. Never wasgiven a menu had to look around for the menus and never was offered even a beverage...like wth. Took them almost 17 minutesbefore she took our order. Had to ask a local there about the service bc she was the only one there. Apparently on weekdays theyare slow and short staff, and weekends are packed, most people just call and order by phone and pick up. But cmon. Pick to be adine in and order or just close shop and be an order only place. They gave my friends local tap water which was nasty. Had to gooutside and get bottled water. Just a horrible experience. Second time coming to NY since 2013 and this is what I get. Whew. Anddon't get me started on that $105 bill. I hope they do better. Stright up embarrassing... Read more
If I had written this review after my first order, I would have erroneously given a 5 star review. The swift time of delivery,... the taste, the packaging etc were so exceptional. I was blown away in comparison to a competitor BUT then I placed another orderanother time (as I was impressed with the initial order) and this time, I ordered even more soups and all but it was a FAIL. Thewhole food delivered to me gave me this "left over food vibe" which I really didn't appreciate. The very first order, the Egusisoup was looking so great and for the first time, I didn't stool after eating Egusi soup prepared by another but the secondtime, it was all like a clump of residue Egusi and I was so disappointed. The taste wasn't as great as the first. (See photosfor comparison) Also the Ogbono was not slimy and the taste? I'm in no way impressed. I really had high hopes about this placeinitially but the second order gave me a rethink. I still intend to visit in person and probably know if the failed order wasjust a once in a lifetime event. When I do visit and I'm impressed, I will be updating. Something I must commend is the GreatSPEED at food preparation. Keep that up!!! Read more

Tried out this location last week. I was there for their Taco Tuesday, best decision I made that week! The food was amazing... tried out thé tacos and burger with a friend, the cocktails were also bomb! The staff are super friendly and responsive too!Would highly recommend!! Read more
Tried this place one night and had to come back again the very next night because the food was so good. The ogousi as well as... the spinach with fish is to die for. Will be stopping here to satisfy my itch for west African food whenever I’m in the city.My friend had the drinks and was not a fan and the goat meat was a little tough but I would give a million stars for the fish,ogousi, spinach, pounded yam, and okra. The customer service was also very good. Read more
First time eating African food...and thank God I came here!! The waitress was so friendly and knowledgeable of the dishes. She... did a great job recommending me what to eat for the first time. I had spinach and goat soup with fufu. She was interested in meenjoying my meal that she recommended me eating using my hands. She brought me a bowl with water to wash them, instructed me HOWand what to eat and in the order.The drinks I had were really good too. I am beyond happy with my first African meal. Next timeI will try jolof rice. Read more
