Thirty dollars for a burrito. THIRTY DOLLARS. For a BURRITO. The must be out of their minds. We ate their two times today, the first and the last. The waitress, Brooke was rude and treated us like we were bothering her by eating at the restaurant. We promise to never bother her again. Food was ok for a diner. read more

We have driven by many of times and finally stopped in. Once on a Friday evening and we had a drink at the bar. Our bartender, Alyssa, was friendly, helpful and so very patient with us as we took some time deciding on a drink. The restaurant is very spacious, clean and welcoming. On our most recent visit we had brunch on a Saturday and we were seated in a timely manor and greeted by Oscar. Oscar was busy with several tables to look after, but he still attended to us and made us feel like we were his only table. He was friendly, and helpful with our questions. We ordered the Philly Steak Sandwich and the Turkey Club Sandwich, both were delicious! Our food arrived quickly, tasted fresh and had plenty leftover. Parking is in the back, there are plenty of spaces but could definitely fill up during peak hours I'm sure. We highly recommend a stop here for any meal as the menu is extensive, has something for everyone and brunch is served until 2pm! Enjoy! read more

The service was very slow and at 5pm, it wasn't busy. Waitress didn't know menu. I order Senior meal of Fish and Chips. It came with little piece of battered cod, lots of overdone fries and a quarter cup of coleslaw on a wilted lettuce leaf. Husband's Cobb Salad had lots of lettuce and avocado not mixed with the dressing which he specifically ordered. Very disappointing - all for $60.+ The included one beer and glass of water. read more

Nestled at Foothill and Hill at 1004 is this charmer of a cafe and bar. We opted for blueberry pancake dish and hot chocolate and it was scrumptious! The hot cocoa was served topped with whip cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. The pancakes were three with blueberries mixed right into the batter. Would a been nice to maybe whip cream too the pancakes but we can't have everything...May request that if I order it again. All in all great ambience and quality dishes! read more

First time here. I ordered the Cobb salad. The chicken that came with it was plain boiled chicken. No flavor, cold, not appealing looking at all and bland tasting. I didn't eat it, I saved it to take home to my dog. That is a HUGE disappointment. The menus says mixed greens. But a majority of the salad was ice berg. That's deceiving. I would never of ordered this salad if it said ice burg on the menu. It feels like it's put in as filler. I've also never had a Cobb salad anywhere in my life that came with ice burg lettuce. The amount of bacon, blue cheese, and avocado was plentiful. The tomato's were ok, kind of hard and under ripe. The egg was fine, the dressing was good. For the price I would expect more. The service was ok. Our server brought our drinks and then took our order then never came back for a while to check on us once...he disappeared and eventually a new server came in. A bus boy with a white mask on was passing and my elderly mother politely tried to ask about a drink, the bus boy (older man) rudely and dismissively said it's coming it's coming to her... as he passed looking straight ahead. He clearly didn't give a care and was in a bad mood. She deserved more respect and kindness. The place is cold and weird energy. I wouldn't recommend or come back here. 2 stars because the second server who popped in to check on us and bring our check was nice, and I believe his name was Josue. read more

Not dog friendly. There is a sign that they clearly only allow service dogs. Despite their patio and being nearby hiking trails, they do not allow dogs on their premises unless they are service animals. That is understandable, but don't bother if you're looking for a spot to bring your doggo with you. read more

Not a fan I was excited to try this place hoping it would become a local breakfast place since I live near by butttt unfortunately that wasn't the case. Been here 4 times read more

Came here for brunch for the first time and the pros about this place is it is spacious, there is enough parking, and very kid friendly. The service was also relatively quick. The cons is that it is very expensive. I paid close to $30 for an underwhelming omelet, lol. That omelet had an entire slice of Kraft singles cheese stuck in there (couldn't they have used shredded cheese at least?!). The eggs Benedict were fine. This spot prices their food similar to DTLA brunch spots but their food isn't as good. read more

Extremely disappointed in Hill Street. If you know how to order, the food is expensive, but good. Today I got the Carne Asada Tostada Salad. It is usually a winner (but it is $30.00 with tax and tip if you order it with water). Today the meat was riddled with tendons. It was inedible (only 3 bites or approximately 15 were just meat). The server (who remained dignified and gave good service) admitted that the kitchen 'ran out of asada', which he should have disclosed. He said they put a reglar steak on there. I got him to admit that they could not have served that steak under any circumstances. I asked to see the manager and they were a coward and never came out to meet me. They just lost a regular customer who works right across the street. Obviously they were not the business owner. I'd put up a photo of the 12 plus pieces of gristle meat I pulled out of my mouth, but that is gross. For the record, the waiter did offer to replace my dish, but I hate to waste food and didn't want them to throw out the rest of a perfectly good salad. After the waiter went to the manager (because they would not come out to see me) and they (I don't know their gender) offered to take $4 off, I felt insulted and done. The waiter took another $4 off, which I appreciated, so I paid $20 for an asada salad with virtually no asada. Bad management can sink a business. read more

Had to go here because our usual place was closed due to no electricity. Since I had been disappointed here so many times I went in reluctantly and as usual they disappointed me again. Food is expensive and nothing to get excited about. Service? Almost non existent. Next time I would rather go hungry. read more

Food and service is great. We really enjoyed the ambiance. Pleasant atmosphere with comfy seats

It was our first time at this cafe. We were seated right away and the service was great. However, for the price point, I was underwhelmed with the visual and taste of the dishes we ordered (eggs benedict and egg whites& turkey). read more

Food quality is poor. Restrooms are dirty. I can't see kitchen, kinda scary. My husband and I will not be back.

This place is great. Huge menu. DAVID our excellent waiter brought us to a nice table and gave us the menu. Its several pages and lots of choices. They had senior menu too and their bar is big. Lots of booths and tables and a beautiful view of the Angeles Crest Mountains. My mom got Sesame Chicken dinner with vegetables and fruit. She raved and said it was a 10! I got the carne asada tacos. So many layers of tortillas and so much meat I have enough for two more meals lol. The dodger game is on their big screen tvs in every room. Tons of tables and booths and also outdoor seating. Beautiful view of Angeles Crest mountains. So many choices though of foods and desserts and drinks! read more

This place is ok! Super expensive breakfast for 2 of us. And it's pretty ordinary stuff nothing Fancy or unusual. Probably won't be back here. Service was a bit slow too even though there weren't too many tables occupied. read more

Hill Street Cafe is one of those neighborhood spots that just gets it right. The food is consistently fresh and flavorful, portions are solid, and everything tastes homemade. Service is friendly and efficient without feeling rushed, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a casual lunch. You can tell they care about quality and their customers. Definitely a go-to spot and always worth coming back to. read more

One of my favorite local breakfast nooks. Staff is friendly , everyone remembers you , the restaurant is clean and inviting; and most importantly the food is great. It's located 4 minutes from where I live , near by shopping centers and shops for shopping after your meal. Everything is wonderful about this place. Some of our favorites are the huevos rancheros , chilaquiles, the Denver omelette, and the waffles. My kids, husband and I all love it here. It's a family favorite You can't go wrong. If you've never been, definitely give it a shot ,you won't be disappointed. read more

At the intersection of the 2 and Foothill, Hill Street Cafe has been serving locals and travelers alike for over 30 years. If you're heading either direction down the 210, hop off at the Angeles Crest Highway exit and you can pull right into their parking lot to grab a bite. We were in for breakfast, no reservation, on a Monday morning, and we were seated right away, and brought coffee immediately. That was a great start, as we were hungry and ready to start our day! The menu has a lot of great selections, so it took a while to figure out what we wanted... and we probably wouldn't have taken so long to decide if we'd known how long the wait would be... For standard breakfast fare (thinks like pancakes, eggs, toast, bacon, and fresh fruit) I'm used to short waits... but I understand that sometimes it takes a while to cook up breakfast, especially later in the morning after the early rush is done. However we waited almost half an hour for what was a pretty straightforward order... and that drops things a couple of stars. It's a place known for breakfast, you shouldn't have to wait 30+ minutes for something as simple as eggs and bacon. We had to ask for our initial coffee refills, but the staff was attentive after that and kept the cups nice and hot. I think the decor has been updated since those who made posts about a "90's vibe" because the place was modern and clean. The staff was very friendly, and I feel a bit sorry for them since the food was coming out so slowly... can't blame the front of house for the kitchen's issues. We'll likely be back again, but not if we're in a hurry. It is awfully convenient if you are headed to walk the gardens at Descanso! read more

My favorite breakfast!! I don't know what it is, I get eggs, toast, and potatoes. Just a basic breakfast you can get anywhere. But there's something special about it, maybe it's the ultra crsipiness of the potatoes who knows. But I love it. Love going out there and having a seat on the patio on a warm day. Great view of the mountains! read more

Second visit, same disappointment. I'm usually willing to give places another chance, but I'm sad to say this spot didn't meet my expectations again. I was craving pancakes, but what I got fell short. The real letdown was the fake maple syrup and margarine had to ask for butter. What am I living in the 80's? Feels like they're trying to cut corners and save money, but it's driving customers away. Not recommended for pancake lovers. read more

Had breakfast with my wife today. We shared the California omelet and a half order of French toast. The omelet was pretty nicely made, without any runny egg parts. That was good. I enjoyed the French toast...nice thick slices of bread. The highlight was our waiter Ramon. He was super! He split our order for us. Very thoughtful of him. The food was okay, but Ramon's service won me over to come back next time. Nice ambiance with plenty of parking. read more

You'd think by now I would be used to paying $12 for oatmeal or $31 for eggs Benedict, but every time I see the bill I become more and more enraged. Better lighting and fancier booths do not excuse blatant price gouging. High-end food might be a reason, but this is just diner fare masked in a cheesy entrance. Oh, and you might want to spend some time cleaning the cobwebs from the lighting. read more

Atmosphere and food very adequate. I had half Reuben and cup of cream of spinach soup and side salad. Sandwich satisfying with extra 1000 island dressing. Wife had a citrus enhanced salad, also tasty. I don't give 5 stars, because my friends Alfredo sauce was burned. He sent it back, but wasn't comped, even after what seemed a long wait. Menu is extensive. Location is central, dining area spacious and lighting easy. It was a hot day outside and yet the A/C was controlled and comfortable. read more

GREAT PLACE FOR BREAKFAST IN LA CANADA ==================================== Met my friend for breakfast and we both loved our meals. My friend had one of the fitness breakfasts with scrambled egg whites and ground turkey and she loved that. I ordered the California omelette with avocado, bacon and tomatoes. I asked for egg whites with no cheese. I skipped the toast too. My dish was around $20 and my friend's was as well. It's definitely not cheap, but it's good. The coffee is good and they have a full bar if you feel like something else. read more

Hill Street Café hits the spot for breakfast in La Cañada. Pro tip--go early to beat the crowd. The eggs Benedict were fire. Silky hollandaise, thick-cut ham (not the usual Canadian bacon), and perfectly poached eggs. The potatoes? Crispy, soft, and so good with the sauce. Friendly staff, great vibes. Solid way to start the day. read more

Back again after several months. In need of a quick dinner. As I was perusing the menu what popped out immediately were the prices. Yes I know since the end of Covid prices increased substantially. However, I had a turkey dinner. ln my opinion I thought the small portions didn't equate to the food quality. Thus, way too expensive. The service is adequate. Unfortunately, decided not to return. In the past, I didn't hesitate to dine there. I realize I'm going in the minority, but to each their own. read more

Wow amazing food and worth it! We got a sandwich and did not realize how large the portions were, which is awesome. It came with a side and a salad. Kind workers and on a Sunday afternoon it was a very relaxed environment. Lots of options to choose from on the menu too. read more
