    Everyone was great!

    The Hilltop was beautiful! You definitely get what you pay for. Leanne was easy to work with and very responsive. 10/10

    Professional and beautiful

    We had our 35th anniversary vow renewal at the Hilltop Restaurant. The staff were all helpful and pleasant. The venue was absolutely beautiful and Stacey was a priceless jewel. She was open to everything we wanted, gave great suggestions and made our special day everything we could imagine or hope for.

    The Hilltop Club's reply:

    Good afternoon Cathy and David,
    Thank you so very much for these wonderful words and great compliments. I will be sure to pass this on to our staff. It was a blessing to be part of your very special 35th Anniversary Vow Renewal. I wish you both the very best over the next 35 years! Take great care of each other and please stay in touch.
    With Lots of Love,
    Stacey Martorano

    Wedding bliss!

    Stacy and the staff at the Hilltop made our wedding day very special and we highly recommend to check them out. She made sure every detail was perfect and the restaurant itself is exquisite and beautiful. I was amazed by how everything can't together and just how I imagined. Looking forward to visiting the restaurant soon.

    The Hilltop Club's reply:

    Hi Tracie,

    Fantastic service and venue!

    The venue was beautiful! We rented the Grand Ballroom for our August 22nd wedding. Stacey was awesome and helpful. She was also our wedding officiant. The Hilltop staff were amazing and so nice! I highly recommend booking your wedding here. They will take care of everything and you won’t be disappointed!

    The Hilltop Club's reply:

    Perfect Hidden Gem

    beautiful. This Victorian style mansion was the perfect setting for my private exchange of vows. There's also two beautiful gardens. My wedding was held in the larger of the two. My guest were equally impressed as well. But NOTHING compared to the professionalism and graciousness of Ms. Stacey! She was friendly and helpful from the start. She was so personable that I felt like I've known her forever. This is the perfect place for ANY event!

    The Hilltop Club's reply:

    Thank you so very much for these wonderful and very kind words! I am so happy your experience here was everything you had hoped for. Your ceremony was absolutely beautiful! It was a great pleasure meeting you and your husband as well as your families. I loved helping you plan your wedding...it was perfect. I wish you both happiness in all your days ahead and look forward to seeing you again!

    Warm Wishes,

    Our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. Chad and Staci were so amazing, supportive, professional and went the extra mile to make sure our special day was a success. All of our guests were pleasantly surprised by the venue, the cozy atmosphere and the amazing food. The Hilltop is one of the best kept secrets in Orange Park, I honestly can't say enough about how beautiful the property is!!

    My wedding was here and it turned out absolutely perfect. The owner is very involved, and will go out of his way to ensure everything is perfect. The ceremony area was perfect, the reception was wonderful, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere inviting. Absolutely worth every penny.

    It’s an old Victorian style mansion/Plantation home. It oozes character and history. Leanne and Stacey handled so many things and the venue is gorgeous. We had originally wanted to be married on May 5th for a Cinco de Mayo theme, but Leanne at the Hilltop offered us ½ off if we chose May 7th as they are normally closed on Sunday. We happily accepted! The price, which is accurate , includes venue, color coordinated table and chair decorations, table flowers, cake service, and food. We opted for a lunch buffet style food service and it was delicious. They were prompt with communication and very helpful with helping us plan things out. The venue price was thousands less than every other place we looked at and offered so much more. It was a real life (and wallet) saver.

    Definitely recommend The Hilltop!

    Everything! Was! Perfect!
    the location is reasonably priced and stunning. An amazing bargain. The food and space were lovely and left nothing to be desired. We went in early to bring our effects and get ready and were greeted as if by family. Every detail was considered, I could not have asked for more.

    Chad and Stacey were amazing and very patient during the process. My husband and I were planning our wedding from out of town so they professionally dealt with not only us but both sets of parents. They really went above and beyond for us! The food was amazing and our guests had nothing but good things to say. We were in the patterson room and there were other events going on that day but we couldn't even tell! They do a great job making sure to separate events so that you don't ever feel like you're sharing your day with another couple or party. The staff for our event was also AMAZING! Everyone was so friendly and nice and they even helped make my husband and I plates since we were busy running around. Overall, I loved this venue and I would definitely go back there for dinner!

    I had my parents 30th wedding anniversary dinner at the Hiltop and was very pleased. The food was excellent, the service was great, and the atmosphere was just right for the occasion. I met with Stacey during my initial appointment and she took her time to go over every detail and delivered with everything the day of the event. Stacey thanks for taking the time to ensure my parents day was just right! The owner Chad took the time to make sure I had everything I needed and ensured that every detail was just right. Chad treats you as if you're family, not a client and that's what keeps me coming back to the Hiltop along with the great food. This was not my first event at the Hiltop and is definitely not my last. I highly recommend the Hiltop Restaurant to anyone in the mood for wonderful dining with excellent service.

    The Hilltop is a wonderful venue! The staff are amazing. The owners are very flexible, understanding, and patient. When we had a run in with our wedding coordinator, Chad, Stacey, and Rob stepped right in to help the wedding to become a successful event. On the day of the wedding, the staff was attentive and timely to make sure the wedding had a smooth flow. The food was wonderful. The presentation and the taste was great. We still receive compliments about the wedding.We love this venue and would come back to have our anniversary party here. Thank you Hilltop staff!!!!!

    If you are looking for a beautiful, romantic, affordable, wedding venue with delicious food and romantic atmosphere....we found all that and more here at The Hilltop. My husband and I fell in love with the Southern/Victorian charm of the Hilltop. We had our ceremony in the Garden , which is beautiful with the lush green garden ..the staircase leading from the grand ballroom made for a romantic entrance as I walked down the stairs for my father to escort me to the man of my dreams.Our reception was in the beautiful grand ballroom which has huge windows overlooking the garden. We had the Magnolia Menu , everyone commented how excellent the food was, as well as the serving staff. Stacey was such a huge help with all aspects of our wedding...from helpful suggestions, rehearsal, working with us on children plate for my nephew who was our ring bearer. I must have emailed Stacey 20 times with a million questions and she was always prompt in responding with a sweet and helpful manner. Our wedding was absolutely a dream come true, and I would recommend The Hilltop and their staff ( Especially Stacey Martorano) to anyone looking for a venue for their special day!!!!

    The Hilltop provides all of your wedding needs at a great price. The venue is absolutely beautiful! Stacey Martorano went above and beyond to provide all that we needed for a beautiful day. Outdoor ceremony was perfect, inside reception was beautiful and well decorated. Linens, centerpiece flowers (!) provided by Chad and beautiful tableware are provided. Many tables for all purposes are available. The food was fabulous. Thanks to the entire staff for memories that will last a lifetime!

    Chad, Robbie and Stacy were the best people to work with. They were understanding of our budget, made sure we stayed within the lines. They didn't try and push the unnecessary onto us, they just wanted to make us happy in whichever way they could. They were organized in the planning method, easy to make payments to and always available by phone for us. We had heard that their food was delicious and they didn't let us down. Our family and friends are still talking about how good the food was. The dance flor was plenty big for our party people to break it down. The scenery of The Hilltop is nothing short of beautiful as well. So far my pictures are gorgeous!

    I would highly recommend The Hilltop Club to anyone looking for a beautiful, vintage, elegant themed wedding.

    Chad, Stacey, Robbie and the staff at the Hilltop were absolutely great towards us and we are so happy that we chose The Hilltop for our venue. They treated us like family since the first time we met them and they were always there to answer questions. We even changed our menu after our food tasting because we had was the BEST Roast Beef and Pork loin we ever had at a restaurant. The entire staff was great the day of and even served our guests water before the ceremony to handle the humidity outside. Stacey was on top of the vendors and made sure they didn't miss any special dances or toasts. We are so happy we found the Hilltop and wouldn't go anywhere else if we had to do it all over again.
