Best Casual Restaurants in Hillcrest

We were meeting my cousin who I hadn’t seen in a year, she was taking us out for our Anniversary. I had requested a table in the front room, but when we got there the room had a private party. Seeing my disappointment, the hostess asked if I was looking for a quiet table, which we were. She put us in one of the private rooms, in a corner booth meant for six even though we were only three. It was such a cozy and private space, we had plenty of room to spread out but still enjoy quiet conversation. The waitress was exceptional, helping us with our choices, and attentive without being intrusive. The food was excellent, beautifully presented. All in all, as usual, Aqua Terra did not disappoint. We will definitely return!

Food was wonderful- 5 of us shared a selection of hot and cold appetizers, as well as 2 entrees. One, a daily special entree tuna kabob was truly outstanding! Service was attentive and cheerful. Unfortunately we dined during the heat wave and one AC unit was out of order so it was way too hot even inside. However, we will definitely go back to this unassuming yet excellent restaurant.

Everyone that interacted with our party was friendly, professional and helpful.

First time going. The server was very nice and friendly. All the guys that went around with the meats were very nice.

The food is always reliable and Daniel our server was exceptional.
