Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Mission Hills

The restaurant is beautiful! Our waiter was great! Dinner was delicious. There were 6 of us and we each ordered something different. Peter was gracious enough to pose for a picture!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience. We were seated next to a family with extremely unruly children. We asked to move, and we were moved immediately. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and our experience was wonderful. The views are pretty incredible, too.

We started with their Paint and Sip session from 12 to 2 PM, which was an absolute blast. The ambiance was creative and relaxing, and the staff ensured we had everything we needed to unleash our inner artists. It was such a fun and unique way to bond with my mom and Gabby—lots of laughs, a little paint flipping, and beautiful keepsakes to take home! After exploring the lively Universal CityWalk, we came back at 5 PM for dinner, and Five on the Hill absolutely wowed us. The chef’s gift, a stunning Oaxacan-inspired chile relleno with butternut squash purée, crème fraîche, and pomegranate arils, was a masterpiece—rich, flavorful, and beautifully presented. My mom adored the Elf’s Pumpkin Pot Pie, a heartwarming dish with tender chicken and flaky puff pastry served in a petite pumpkin—it was pure comfort on a plate. And let’s not forget the lobster tacos—delicate, flavorful, and a perfect way to indulge! From the creative vibes at the Paint and Sip to the unforgettable culinary experience, Five on the Hill made our Universal City adventure truly remarkable. Can’t wait to return! 🌟

Jason provided top-notch excellent service. The food was delicious and we enjoyed every morsel. What a fantastic evening. We will definitely be back.

We were unfamiliar with Firefly but, based on a good rating from YELP! we decided to try it. There were 5 of us for dinner and the food was outstanding. We opted for the 3 course fixed price menu and each dish was excellent. The waiters were friendly and attentive. The portions were generous enough so that we left satisfied but not stuffed. We'll definitely be back.
