Some places, and some meals leave a lasting impression. Quite simply - the food is always…read moreexceptional. However, additional details create a loving connection - it's off-Broadway central location, the copper-paneled ceiling that mimics warm conversations in varied spaces (cocktail, chef's counter, expandable tables for groups, and outdoor), fresh, locally-sourced ingredients with service to match. It's the place where I had my first glass of Turley Zinfandel (education alongside), and the place I will always return for my favorite Wagyu Beef Stroganoff (a comfort from home, but upscale). This one delivered with large, firm, expertly seasoned portobello & forest mushrooms over wide, freshly handmade pappardelle pasta that soaks up rich beef stock (a touch of black pepper) blended with crème fraîche. A generous portion of wagyu is tender and rich. PRO TIP: Mix then let it sit & marinade a minute - flavor pays in dividends. For dessert, a Valhrona Chocolate Pudding topped with whip cream and Maldon flake salt - exquisite, but expensive. The texture is comforting and delicious - olive oil adds a lingering finish with slight fruit.

Host name is Carleigh…read more We had a reservation for 8:00 PM and arrived around 7:50 PM. When we checked in, the host, Carleigh, immediately told us it would be a 20-30 minute wait. I informed her that we had a reservation under my name, John, but she simply looked at her list, seemed annoyed, and told us to wait anyway. While we were waiting, we watched several parties of two arrive after us with reservations at 8:10, 8:15, and even 8:20, and they were seated before us. After waiting about 20 minutes, I went back to ask how much longer it would be. I was told it would be another 20 minutes. I reminded Carleigh that we had a reservation, and her response was, "Oh, you did?" She then asked for my full name and phone number, looked up the reservation, apologized, and immediately escorted us to a table that appeared to have been ready the entire time. This was extremely frustrating and disappointing. Reservations are made so guests don't have to wait behind people who arrive later. It felt like our reservation had been completely ignored until I spoke up a second time. Whether this was poor organization or a lack of attention, the level of service at the front desk was unacceptable. We came looking forward to a nice family dinner, but the experience started with unnecessary frustration and left a very poor first impression. I sincerely hope additional training is provided so this doesn't happen to other guests.

Arrived a few minutes before lunch was ending but told our server we'd like to enjoy the dinner options. Sashimi is a dinner item, nigiri for lunch. The restaurant is spacious with plenty of seating around the buffet. Our server was very attentive and provided us with sightseeing opportunities for our last day.

A Sushi Buffet with Surprises -- Fresh Rolls, Friendly Vibes & a Plate-Finding Adventure…read more We finally made it to Takumi Sushi & Buffet, and if you're into sushi buffets (guilty!), this spot has some standout features that make it worth the visit. The best part? You can order custom sushi rolls made fresh--no waiting around for dried-out rice rolls here. We tried the Sunrise Roll, which was bright and citrusy with a lemony kick, and the Tequila Roll, which packed some serious heat. I tapped out after one spicy piece (spice and I are not friends), but my other half loved it and polished off the rest without hesitation. The buffet line is a solid spread too: sashimi, nigiri, a seafood section with peeled shrimp, mussels, and rock crab, plus a bunch of hot dishes to round things out. Pro tip: The plates and bowls are underneath the buffet counters. It took me a moment to find them, but my shorter half was already ahead of the game--of course. They've got a dumpling station that's worth lingering over, and the pork belly buns were so good I may have gone back for seconds (and thirds). And if you're a prawn fan? They've got them every which way: chilled, grilled, fried--take your pick. The soups are self-serve and include miso, seafood, and egg drop--classic, comforting, and great for warming up between plates. Special shoutout to Nico, our friendly and helpful server who explained how everything works since it was our first time. Always appreciate service with a smile. We left full, happy, and with a couple of come-back cards for $3 off lunch and $5 off dinner--nice little bonus! While it may not be our go-to for sushi-only cravings, it's definitely one of the better buffets in town, and we'll absolutely be back.

We took our food to Millcreek Commons to have dinner and chat. The food was good. It could have definitely used some green peppers, onions, and mushrooms. Othet than that, I was happy with my decision. The fries were good too. The other options looked delicious! I will definitely have to go back and try the other options; and for a round or two of pool!

Such a fun restaurant and vibe for special occasions!!! They even made a special menu with our names!!! We started off with a Sauvignon Blanc for me and a Zero Prosecco for my husband. We also shared the Heirloom Tomato Tartine for an appetizer. Absolutely delicious!! For our main meals my husband got the H and H Burger with a veggie patty and side salad. I went with the Iceberg Wedge, minus the onions. Again, delicious!! Hiro brought us a special anniversary dessert, a chocolate mousse with a sparkler on top!!! Wonderful way to end the meal!! We will definitely come back!! I really like how attentive they are to dietary restrictions and how they kept checking on us to make sure we liked our food and if we needed anything else. Hiro never disappeared!!

The décor is warm, modern, and sophisticated, with a contemporary yet cozy feel that makes it a very inviting place to relax and enjoy an evening. Unfortunately, this visit was a bit disappointing from a culinary standpoint. My ahi tuna did not seem as fresh as I would have expected, and the burger was less than impressive. It was slightly overcooked, and the patty was quite thin, lacking the quality and flavor that the beautiful setting promises. On the positive side, the service was attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly throughout our meal. Heart & Hill has all the ingredients to be a standout destination. A stronger focus on the quality of the meat and a more substantial burger would go a long way toward matching the excellent atmosphere they have created.
