    two glasses of wine and a bottle of wine
    Kandyce V.

    We were a party of 4 and were provided this place from our hotel concierge. I was a little nervous was there were not a lot of people there. But it's a Wednesday night. The place looks like a fine dining steakhouse and is part of the train station. Our waitress was very nice and friendly. She recommended a beautiful bottle of a French red blend wine. We started with an onion soup, which was divine. someone had the Caesar salad and others chose a shrimp cocktail.then I had the prime rib, hubby had the filet mignon. All of the steaks were cooked perfectly. The prices are a little steep but the quality is great.

    Grand restaurant, plutôt chaleureux comme j'adore. J'ai pris un Mojito, sûrement le pire, 2 feuilles de menthe, et on ne sentait pas le rhum. Que la boisson gazeuse dommage... En repas le Filet mignon, et purée ! Très bon! Viande super tendre. Je reviendrai surement si je viens à Quebec.

    Very nice and well done. They were friendly from start to finish. Excellent warm bread to start, followed by a calamari appetizer and 2 charcoal fired steaks .

    I came to this place at the recommendation of my Airbnb host when I was in Quebec visiting last March. At first I was very impressed with the restaurant. The atmosphere is super funky and trendy, the wait staff are all very friendly and attentive, and the seating and plating arrangements are perfect. This place is not super trendy nor super classy, However this is not a place that you're going to be wearing sweatpants to dinner. Food: The food was amazing! This is why I came here. I wanted to take myself out for a fancy dinner before I went back to the states. Everything about the food was superb, the service at the bar was awesome. The drinks were fantastic. The only thing that took away from my experience were the group of four or five American gentleman who were openly ogling every single woman in the bar. They were seated to my right, and I could hear every single thing that they said, including their assessment of me. "She needs to lose about 30 pounds but I'd ___ her." It was enough to make my stomach turn. I immediately felt the need to cut my night short. Service: I pulled aside the bartender and told him what was going on because they were literally talking rudely about every single woman in the bar including one of the female bartenders as well and he said "yeah that's why she's working on the other side of the bar." This is the type of situation where you cannot just let people like this take over your bar. What should've happened was this bartender should've gone to the manager and told them that these men were being disruptive. But that did not happen. So, I chose to leave. Fortunately the bartender took pity on me and gave me free dessert, which was a very very good cheesecake. Did it make up for the crass men who ruined my experience? NO. Will I come back here and give it another shot? Absolutely.

    Tomato salad with pita chips (better order something else)
    Des T.

    I've come here several times and it's only for one reason; their steaks!!! I have never had a bad experience with the cooking of their steaks, the sizes or even their service. They're always on point! I usually order the 8oz fillet mignon and after every visit I swear that next time i'm ordering the smallest size. If you're getting appies, plan to be satisfied, and full by the time your main meal arrives. The only reason I'm taking away a star is because i was extremely disappointed by the appetizer I ordered last time, the tomato salad with pita bread wedges. The tomatoes were soggy and seemed like they were prepared too far in advance (probably mixed the dressing early in the afternoon in anticipation for faster service). The pita wedges were SO stale! And they were deep fried! Yikes! I find that their patio/terrasse is badly/barely decorated and considering the strong decor of the interior plus the location of the restaurant, they could have definitely invested a bit more on the outside. Other than those two points, I'm a fan and will definitely keep coming back!

    This was the salty, made with canned clams, New England style chowder. Meh

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.

Absolutely adorable restaurant outside and inside. You feel like you're in a rabbit burrow. The decor is carefully thought out and charming. The pulled rabbit poutine was great with a mustard sauce instead of the brown gravy you usually get with poutine. The small appetizer poutine was already the perfect size to share along with our smoked duck winter salad and onion soup. Onion soup was made with ale and was covered in cheese. The only thing was that I wished the soup had more broth than cheese. But the onions were tender and cooked down thoroughly. The cheese pull you get is foot long! The broth had a depth of flavor that is not replicated elsewhere. I had the honey pie years ago and remembered that it was sweet, but very good. We didn't have room for dessert, but the maple amaretto creme brulee sounded amazing. All in all, a great meal everytime.

We were seated on the patio and our very sweet server was right out to take our drink order. Since we are eating Poutine all over Canada in search of our favorite. We so enjoyed sitting on the patio, it was a beautiful day, we were people watching and enjoying the umbrellas place up the alley. Our poutine was delivered to the table and I can honestly say it was our favorite. The fries were crunch and creamy on the inside. The gravy was rich and had a deep flavor and the cheese curds had lightly melted. Every bite was perfect. The eatery and bar are tucked into a stone house that dates back to 1668, if only the walls could talk. The bar and restaurant feature local Quebec cuisine and is a gem.
