My husband and I are locals and like to support the local restaurants. I ordered the salmon as I have diet restrictions and it was NOT good at all. BUT WAIT.....keep reading please. After taking a few bites and discussing with my husband how I didnt like it, due to the hardness of it,. I wasnt going to say anything because I just felt bad they are starting out, BUT, I didnt have to because not moments later the chef approached our table and apologized for serving it. He said he was going to make me something else!! He was not pleased with it himself and said his legs still made it over to my table to serve the meal, but his heart felt differently. Those were his words! However-he felt so displeased with it he was honest enough to make it right and insisted on a new meal. He actually made a meal for me NOT on the menu and it was AMAZING, prawns with their spice over onions and peppers. Delicious. He said he takes pride in his food and felt terrible he served it to me. My husbands meal was very good!!! My whole point here is havent you ever done something and thought twice about what you did. Did you make it right? My daughter was with us, (her pizza was great) and what a great lesson we were able to discuss with our daughter. I would definitely go back! I suggested he should put on the menu what he made for me! These are the kind of people we need serving our neighborhood. Hope you give them a try! Cheers!

My wife and I are local and have eaten here several times now. We wanted to give their menu a range of tries before writing our review. We have now tried several of our traditionally favorite Indian dishes as well as a couple of their pizzas. Now were ready to leave a review. :) And I must say, its been difficult to wait, and after our last visit I just couldnt wait any longer. The Indian fare is as good as any we have had anywhere, with wonderfully flavorful and beautifully presented vegetarian and meat based dishes. While we do enjoy other local Indian restaurants it is WONDERFUL to have one 2 minutes from our home. Last night I tried the small (12") veggie pizza and it was outstanding. The chef is very attentive to his tables and the help has been very friendly and prompt. I think we are so lucky to have so many fine eating establishments here in our small neighborhood, and Hilltop is an excellent addition. We will be back again and again.

If you did not know, know this, I am an Indian food snob. My favorite Indian restaurant has been Akbar in Pasadena California for years. That was until Stuart discovered Hill Top Indian Restaurant and Pizza in Browns Point (TACOMA). Do not let the fact that this restaurant serves Indian food and pizza fool you. It is some of the best Indian food I have ever had. I mean this place is special. Stuey has been trying to get me here for over a month and I kept thinking to myself really? Indian food and pizza? No I dont think so. Boy was I wrong. There isnt a thing left on my plate. To top it off, The staff are friendly and the chef visited us at our table. The prices are reasonable and everything was fresh, fresh, fresh!! Run dont walk!

My son wanted to try Indian food so we drove from S. Tacoma. Pretty drive. We tried the Indian Diner Sampler for $20 and thoroughly enjoyed everything, especially the lamb curry. I usually choose a 3 in heat and did tonight. I would have done better with a 2. Next time I will know. My son usually picks a 5 as he did tonight. He would have done better with a 4. All tasted like you went to someones home and experienced the very best home cooking. A lot of care taken with every dish. You get 7 samples in all, just the right amount from soup starter to salad to dessert. Great taste of India to try.

Super friendly staff and food was good. I spent $50 for two people so a little on the expensive side. We went with Indian cuisine and the lamb was very good. The pizza looked interesting and I will try it next time. Tandoori chicken nan was unimpressive and regular nan didnt have that smoky tandoori oven flavor ,but was still good ,although it was more reminiscent of good pizza dough. I would guess they are using a pizza oven instead of a tandoori oven (Ill ask and update).

We had an amazing experience here with our two girls! The pizza is the best weve had in the area. The Chicken Vindaloo and Paneer in butter sauce were delicious. The Chef, Tej, took my girls to the kitchen and let them make their own pizza and they were beside themselves. My two picky eaters cant wait to go back! If youve been wondering about this place, just try it. They are wonderfully friendly and amazing cooks. We are going to make it a weekly visit, Im sure.

Ive been here twice now and it is by far some of the best, most flavorful Indian food Ive ever had. So happy this place is close to home! Ive tried the Lamb Boti, Butter Chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Coconut Curry. All of them were delicious. Their menu is huge with lots of different options. The owner and chef is very nice and the service has been great both times. Please give this place a try, you wont be disappointed.

Food was delicious. Butter lamb was so satisfying. My only complaint is there was no music playing and it made for a very quiet dinner with other guests barely talking as well. And we heard kitchen staff yelling/screaming at each other throughout the meal. Well definitely come back for the food, but hopefully theyll put on some background music to drown out the screaming kitchen staff.

I always wait until my 2nd visit to leave a review. 5 stars for food taste and quality. Aloo Tiki, Chole Bhature, and Butter Chicken are all top notch. Paneer Pakora is the best I have ever had, absolutely fresh and light... as per food quantity I give 4 stars... Quantity is a bit less for the price, a bit larger servings are in order. Will be back again! Big fun menu to explore!!

I ordered to go. They said 20 minutes for pickup. I waited 30. Came in, still had to wait 10 minutes. Got my food. Everyone was nice. Went home and had no rice, onlu and only 1 piece of nan. It tasted really good, the pakora was yummy, only got 4 small pieces of chicken in my tikka masala...tasted good but i feel like i got ripped off...

Very good. Super fast service. Went in for lunch and had the Chicken Tiki Marsala. Its a ton of amazing food. Great naan and flavorful rice. Also tried the lamb SeekhKabob really good, not dry but not greasy, the slides werent my favorite but thats just my feelings about turmeric.
