NORTHBOROUGH, Mass. — With its license in hand, Northborough's Hillside Grill is open and ready for business.
The new restaurant, at 73 W. Main St. next to Boost Fitness and across from Dunkin' Donuts, was approved Monday night by the Northborough Board of Selectmen for sit-down service.
According to Dimitri Voyiantzis, whose son, John, is the owner, the restaurant will seat 30-40 people. "We have a small operation," he said.
On Wednesday, John Voyiantzis said the restaurant would serve "everything homemade." Menu items include soups, salads and pasta dishes — most notably pasticcio, a Greek macaroni and cheese — as well as grilled meats, sandwiches and gourmet pizzas.
"We want it to be for families," John Voyiantzis said.
In fact, Dimitri Voyiantzis told selectmen that while they might pursue a beer and wine license if one becomes available, they will not seek to sell hard liquor. "We're not in business to make money off of that," he said.
The Hillside Grill is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.

Just got home from a couple days in Northborough but wanted to take the time to say what an amazing lunch we had at the Hillside Grille today . We are not familiar with Northborough....our daughter mentioned this restaurant saying it just opened and she hadn't had a chance to go yet. We took her advice and took 3 of our grandchildren to lunch there. We were greeted by John...who was extremely personable and addressed each of us while ordering ....asking us exactly how we'd like everything . They have a really nice selection and we did get a variety from pizza and burgers to haddock and a roast beef sandwich ....all homemade including the bread ! Johns' dad Dimitri came in while we were waiting and was as personable as John. We had 3 kids with us...6...8..and 11....and they kept saying it's the best they've ever had . I could go on and on about this restaurant...but I'll just say ...Food gets a score of 10 ..out of 10...and customer service the same and very clean. Told my daughter of our visit and I'm sure they will be going often....and when we come to visit ....the first restaurant we will be eating at when we come to visit . Good Luck with your new restaurant John and Dimitri...you're off to a great start ..hope to see you soon .....:)
Homemade food!! I'll bet it sure smells good in there...can't wait to try it out this weekend
