  The interior, especially the restrooms, are pretty dated but the food, service and views are excellent.  My husband says they have the best razor clams he's ever had.  On busy nights, be prepared to wait.  
  
  Only complaint (from 12/31/12):  $7 for a soda!  Even if it does come with unlimited refills, that's robbery!

  Owner is the Chef, food is exceptional.  It's old school, interior is outdated but you wont care once your food arrives.

  Loved Hilltop!  My first visit to Coos Bay ended with a wonderful dinner here.  I concur on the last reviewer regarding the ribeye steak sandwich.  Don't even get me started on the oysters. Delicious.  Great vibe to the place.  I can't way to go again.  Loved it.

  One of the BEST meals that I've ever had on the Oregon coast. Everything from the view, service, cocktails and food is dynamite ! If I could, I would travel the (almost) 5 hours weekly just to get an order of the crab cocktail and  aged rib eye steak!

  One of my favorite restaurants in the area. We always eat in the lounge as we love the casual feel but they just redid the main restaurant and it has some of the best views around. I have a hard time deciding between the Cioppino or the Ribeye steak sandwich. Note: steak sandwich is only on the lounge menu and the cioppino isn't actually on the menu, you just have to ask the server if its available that night.

  We have eaten here off and on for years.  My son from out of town and two others and I had dinner here a couple of nights ago.  Our choices were the salmon, halibut and combination seafood plate.  All were good however the service was extremely slow and this was on a Monday night.  Most of the time the food is good but the service varies from visit to visit.  It seems a little overrated to me but we don't have too many choices in this area

  Went for early bird dinner and wished we had saved the money.
  I think the food was left over from the weekend before.
  Salad had too many pickled items that were very salty.
  Dressing was honey mustard, but not sweet but very tangy and unappealing.
  We had the salmon.  It was hard and dry, and it seemed like it had been rewarmed from an earlier time.  Mashed potatoes was served with a slimy beef gravy that was so very salty and unappealing.  Then the dessert which was a mixture of cool whip and chocolate. YUK !
  Save you money.

  I had such high hopes for this restaurant experience. The reviews touted it as a fine dining establishment and the actual building looked inviting from the outside.
  
  My biggest issue was the smell that greeted me upon entering - musty/urine. I would have turned around and walked out the door had I not been with a workmate. The ambiance and food quality was definitely not worth the $$$

  Likely the best food in the bay area. Get reservations for the sunset view. We had the baked salmon, grilled halibut, seafood soup, clam chowder, and crab coctail ALL were excellent. Also had grilled snapper which was ok, maybe 3 of 5.  We went twice during our two day stay and wished they were open for lunch.

  i'm pretty sure this place
  is fine dining for people
  who have no idea
  what fine dining really is.
  i guess that way they can
  overcharge for some
  very mediocre food.
  the staff were a little
  flustered and/or angry.
  nice view though.
