The family owners of Hearth and Hill restaurant, Park City’s popular “gathering spot” in the Kimball Junction neighborhood, are embarking on a major expansion, building on the eatery’s successful first three years and the area’s appetite for locally sourced, regional cuisine.  Coming in 2022 will be a nearby catering kitchen with a grab and go retail counter named Hill’s Kitchen, as well as two restaurants in Salt Lake City: Urban Hill, a high-end concept in the rejuvenated Post District west of downtown, and a second Hearth and Hill in the Sugar House neighborhood east of downtown.

The growth reflects the owners’ excitement about the region’s flourishing restaurant scene.  “Utah has all the ingredients to be a foodie’s wonderland:” says Brooks Kirchheimer, prominent Park City restaurateur and owner with his parents, Sherry and David, “abundant local produce, meat, seafood and specialty purveyors; talented chefs and mixologists; an adventuresome and worldly mix of residents and visitors; and a setting that encourages working up an appetite!  We’re eager to be among those making ‘life elevated’ describe our area’s food scene.”
