Hearth and Hill Opens Sugar House Location
Hearth and Hill – the award-winning American eatery by local restaurateur Brooks Kirchheimer and his Hill Top Hospitality restaurant group which includes SLC’s Urban Hill – has opened a new location in Sugar House. The original Hearth and Hill is located in Park City’s Kimball Junction.
“My co-owner Dad and I designed the original Hearth and Hill in Park City in anticipation of ultimately expanding to Sugar House, for which our accessibly priced, ‘gathering spot’ vibe is ideal,” said Brooks Kirchheimer, Co-Founder of Hill Top Hospitality. “We’re thrilled to finally join this wonderful community and its burgeoning culinary scene!”
Created by Semple Brown Design, interior architects of fine-dining Urban Hill, Hearth and Hill’s contemporary ambiance seats 190 inside and 60 outside, in configurations suited for everyone from single diners to large groups. Open daily for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, the restaurant features an open kitchen, horseshoe-shaped bar, private dining room and two patios. Tall windows and ceilings lend a spacious feel that, coupled with hardwood floors, white oak millwork, custom lighting and a beautiful mix of tiles, stone, brass and other Utah-informed materials, fosters the sophisticated but comfortable environment that has become a Hill Top Hospitality hallmark.
Chef de Cuisine Josh Bernabe and his team have curated menus for Hearth and Hill that range from Fried Brussels Sprouts, Elote Queso Dip, and Scallion Pork Gyoza, to Vegetable Curry, Joyce Farms Duck Breast, Hunter’s Bolognese, and much more.
