They seem pretty decent or small sized with a sizeable staff and a really small menu but service and delivery lacks. Lunch menu has two options - prix fixe for $52 which seems overpriced and lackluster and a tapas (more ne pas) menu with $5 plates. We had vegetarian and pescatarian restrictions and could only order some items - we got their foccacia (which is a tiny bread slice with some tomatoes), vegetable(S) of the day and they said it'll have a bunch of veggies but we got 5 slices of beet, smoked fish vol-au-vent which is ridiculously small and not hot and is listed as a hot plate, a soup of the day that never arrived and upon asking several times the server told us he said soon and could ask the time because he doesn't know?!, an almost thumb sized bite of cake which also took forever to arrive Drinks are fine i guess, the bar staff is a bit better at explaining and timeliness. Overall, not a good experience.

The cheese curds were really bouncy and chewy, and they made a squishy sound. Apparently, that's how you know it's fresh! There's ample seating outside the shop to enjoy the pleasant view and weather, and I really enjoyed eating here. I would definitely recommend it!

La maisonnette et la terrasse sont si mignonnes et pittoresques, un endroit merveilleux pour prendre une collation. J'ai été rejoint par un beau coq - un peu effronté mais poli... J'ai partagé un peu de mon palmier avec lui et il a semblé apprécier. Je ne pense pas que ce soit son premier. Après mon expresso, je suis retourné et j'ai trouvé de merveilleux souvenirs, notamment des t-shirts, des sweats à capuche, des vestes et il y avait tellement d'articles pour la maison que je voulais mais que je savais qu'ils ne rentreraient pas dans ma valise. Pourtant, j'ai aussi acheté un magnifique livre pour enfants "Dorianne et Edgar sauvent Noel à l'île d'Orléans" de l'auteure locale Martine Patoine et c'est ravissant. Je n'avais pas réalisé que la copie m'avait posé un problème et, par chance, j'étais garée juste à côté de l'auteur et son mari et son adorable chien m'en ont donné une toute nouvelle parfaite de leur voiture. La chance! Une boutique délicieuse, une tarte aux pommes et un café merveilleux et plein de bonnes choses à l'intérieur! ***** I heard from a few people that the apple pie here was wonderful, so after lunch I stopped in for an apple pie with caramel sauce and espresso. The playhouse and patio are so cute and quaint, a wonderful place to grab a snack. I was joined by a handsome rooster - a little cheeky but polite... I shared some of my palmier with him and he seemed to appreciate it. I don't think this was his first. After my espresso I went back and found some wonderful souvenirs including t-shirts, hoodies, jackets and there were so many home items that I wanted but knew they wouldn't fit in my suitcase. However, I also bought a wonderful children's book "Dorianne and Edgar save Noel on the Island of Orleans" by local author Martine Patoine and it is delightful. I didn't realize I had a problem with the copy and luckily I was parked right next to the author and her husband and adorable dog gave me a perfect brand new one from their car . How lucky!

The owner, at some point in time, had a pet bear he owned and lived on premise with his large family. The history of the inn and pictures of the bear are still on the wall and in the atmosphere. Today, it's an intimate restaurant with good food and good service as well as a charming inn. We have been going there for the last few years and neither the food nor the service disappoints. I will have to say that prices are on the higher end, but so is the food. It's not easy to find good food in the area that doesn't classify as ´fast food'. Also most of the food in the area is poutine, pizza, burgers and chicken. It's nice to experience more unique options and the tasting menu is a must try. Some evening like Christmas and new year require reservations. Good lunch or dinner place. We never stayed in the inn but it looks charming as well. Ski mountain and st Anne Cathedral aren't far away. They are also famous for their Sunday brunch. That requires reservations as well. I know it's a thing but I have never tried it.

We cannot complain about that. Our server was friendly and very charming. The meal was beautifully paced. The restaurant itself is very noisy. The food itself was disappointing. On the recommendation of our server we started with the carrot doughnut. The doughnut itself was lost under a mountain of ricotta. I would not have known that it was carrot, except that she had told us. We ordered two other starters : I ordered the foie gras pate and my boyfriend ordered the fried oysters. The pate was served on a small layer of sunflower butter, which was unnecessary. The pate itself was surprisingly flavorless. Homemade bread and blueberry jam served alongside was quite good. The fried oysters were completely drowned in buffalo sauce, another green sauce and "blue cheese foam". I would not have even known they were oysters. They were served underneath some cucumbers and peppers and lettuce. For our main course, we shared the blood pudding, which, despite the crazy number of ingredients actually was delicious. It was the best thing we ate. It was served with homemade bacon, a roasted artichoke heart, and some mussels croquettes. Seriously a lot going on. For dessert we ordered the spiced orchard dacquoise. Another complex, and I thought overly complicated dish, that my boyfriend felt worked well. It was presented nicely, and I remembered to get a picture of it. All in all, it seemed like there's just way too much going on in each dish and no particular flavor stands out. Two of the dishes, the fried oysters and the carrot doughnut were just sloppy and smothered. The boudin and the dessert were both beautifully plated, and the flavors worked better as well. The foie gras appetizer was unfortunately bland, and the main ingredient did not shine. Maybe it was an off night? Maybe we didn't order the best things? Evidently, they're doing something right because they've been going for 50 years, but we just didn't see that.

They really know how to celebrate food and have put great thought into their food combinations, elevating good quality ingredients into a fine dining experience. Le Hobbit is a cozy spot with a corner view of the city's dining/shopping street with great 2 seater tables to enjoy the private ambiance as well as some longer tables for groups of 4, 6, 8 to gather. Reservations is highly recommended/required. The atmosphere is very cozy with wood themes and very private. We had: - house lemonade - the foie gras seed butter and blueberry jam app; this is served on a broiche with a large amount of foie gras and homemade roasted sunflower seed butter; this was a very flavorful and filling starter for two - Poulet de Cornouailles - cornish roasted hen (the whole bird, small); was very delicate, served on mashed turnips, topped with an artistic grilled turnip and other veggies to cover the protein, it was a great experience to taste each component of the dish and have it come together well - veal flank steak with sauce on carrot puree and bitter vegetables - dessert (which changes frequently) was an artistic experience, a spiced cake with sauce, a uniquely (not my favorite) ice cream with candied bitter citrus peel served on top of toasted granola/sweetened biscuits The serving staff was super knowledgeable and presented each course and dish when served with further explanations on the ingredients, process, as well as how to best experience the dish. Most of the staff are also LOTR fans, so there is a nice opportunity to geek out together and see the inspiration for some of the dishes. Very much recommended for a nice evening out in Quebec City.
