Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Hillcrest

From beginning to the end of our meal, we were extremely satisfied with everything. Scott, our server was the best 👌.

Top notch dining experience from food to service!!!! You can be near live music or request a quiet table - and get one!!! Cant wait to return!!!

This is an excellent choice for pre-theatre parking and dining. The Westin hotel valet service, attendants are courteous and helpful about how things work there: free parking during dinner, $10 covers theatre time, pick up afterward, all seamless The restaurant has a bit of off-the-hotel-lobby feel, but in a good way. Varied menu to satisfy any appetite, delicious food delivered promptly, nice bar, and wine selection. There are police/security very closeby, it feels safe - there are homeless people more toward the theatres (who we brought our leftover pizza to), but even that did not seem dangerous. I would choose this again, for pre-theatre and/or overnight.

The culturally themed dinners at Artifact are excellent. We enjoyed a Polish feast last night that was delicious and included tastes of familiar dishes such as kielbasa, pierogi and potato pie. My favorite course was the upscale take on golabki (cabbage roll) made with a shrimp and smoked trout filling topped with a crème fraiche, horseradish and trout roe sauce. The four course meals are offered monthly and include “sip of the region” drink menu options to pair with the food. We have enjoyed each of the meals we have attended.

Food excellent but had a long wait for service. Staff extremely friendly.
