We’re known for more than quality boutiques and specialty stores. You could come every night of the week and enjoy something different.

Perfect Dishes for Date Night

The Shops At Hilltop features many bars and restaurants that enhance the vibrant nightlife in Virginia Beach. When you want to impress your significant other with a cozy dinner for two or a fun night out in a lively atmosphere, your only concern is choosing from our many options:

Baker’s Crust is a name folks in Virginia Beach have known for almost fifteen years, one that evokes images of freshly baked bread for their signature sandwiches (all of which are great with their tomato cheese soup). These days you can also enjoy savory Neopolitan pizzas, street tacos or hamburgers with a local craft beer. Save room to split a dessert crepe filled with flambeed bananas or strawberries with whipped cream.

At Cobalt Grille you’ll enjoy an intimate environment for lunch or dinner with an ever-changing menu to suit the season. Sip a Cobalt Cosmo while you feast on specialties like maple duck breast, rack of lamb, or seafood risotto. If your appetite’s not that big, you can make a meal of Cobalt’s many mouth-watering appetizers and salads (they had us at the calamari).

For a unique experience with friends or family, an office outing or other special occasion, the Melting Pot is a great place to savor good food and create memories. If you’ve never tried fondue before or can wield a fondue fork like a pro, the waitstaff can guide you through a multi-course meal that includes a variety of breads and artisan meats for cheese fondue, meat and seafood for the main course, and a delicious liquid chocolate finisher.

Around the World in One Sitting

You won’t find as many worldly delights in one place like the many ethnic eateries at The Shops At Hilltop. Let your palate experience the finest in international cuisine, right here in Virginia Beach.

When you come to Baladi Mediterranean Cafe for lunch or dinner the aroma of Middle Eastern spices tempt your appetite. Baladi offers everything from mild to spicy dishes like kebab or shawermah with your choice of chicken, beef, or lamb, and flavorful vegetarian dishes with homemade falafel and baba gannooj. Did we mention three kinds of baklava?

Craving sushi? Come to Blue Fin Japanese Restaurant and choose from the ever popular California and crab rolls or walk on the wide with a selection of specialty nigiri and rolls unique to our favorite Japanese restaurant. For those in your party not ready to try raw fish, Blue Fin features a menu of different Udon noodle dishes and teriyaki, and Korean favorites.

If you’re jonesing for Indian cuisine, Nawab is a favorite in Virginia Beach. Their lunch buffet features the most popular dishes of the sub-continent like curried chicken and tikka masala with vegetable samosas. At dinner you can enjoy an expanded menu of tandoori and biryani dishes with chicken, lamb, beef and seafood or vegetarian-style. Have plenty of naan bread to put out the fire if you opt for the hot spices.

Most of our restaurants offer gluten-free and vegan options, too, if your diet dictates, so don’t be afraid to ask for what’s available. Dining in Hilltop is a great way to celebrate a night out with friends, family, or your favorite somebody any time of the year.
