So I looked through the reviews of Hobarts.... most were good, some were not so good but we needed…read moreto give it its day in court...... Hobarts did not disappoint. Starting with the cocktails they nailed it. I have had martinis at countless restaurants (perhaps I am a lush) and their vodka martini was perfect - I mean like I make them at home. Then came the appetizer that my mother in law ordered.... cheese fritters- they were breaded mac and cheese bombs with a honey mustard dipping sauce that was to die for- no word of a lie. Next was the main.... I had a 10 oz. ribeye that wasn't 10 ounces.... it was more like 15 ounces- it was huge but it was cooked perfectly medium rare and perfectly seasoned - this wasn't just good, this was Montreal good... amazing food all around. But I think the service was the kicker.... our servers took the time to talk to us, explain the menu, ask people what they liked and were simply wonderful... I wish all restaurants had staff like this. Bottom line - if you're in this part of Ontario, go to Hobarts..... you will be blown away.

Well the appitizers were very disappointing . We ordered escargot in mushroom caps and a loaf bread. Yes.. we ordered bread. It's not part of the $80.00 dinner for two. At $9.00 it was less than spectacular . The mushrooms were old and tasteless. White on the bottom as if they had been sitting in a liquid far too long . The salad also an extra was tiny leaving us thinking that they may have run out of lettuce . Small brown tips on the romaine was a dead give away. The atmosphere and service was excellent . We will go back and give it another shot. Let's hope it's better .

Obviously you would think that…read morean establishment with high stakes and high rollers would have a decent selection of fine food and fine booze! This had all of that fine food fine booze but also great service! The only setback I had with my experience was the $46 additional lobster tail I ordered that was around the same size as one of the scallops on my scallop entrée.... If you're going to charge $46 for a lobster tail it should be fairly significant. Other than that, I highly recommend this location, this is a review on the food but even though the rooms are a little dated they're very large and comforting! Not a bad way to spend a weekend!

I ordered a dry vodka martini (with a twist) with grey goose, it came sweet and with Smirnoff. A second try got me the grey goose but sadly it was again sweet and I didn't have the heart to send my drink back a second time fearing it might return with a human body fluid in it. The plastic straw was a nice touch too. I started with a Caesar, no croutons, it was a salad....that came with croutons. Followed by the Poke and Carpaccio. The Poke was bad, it tasted like it was 2 days old, places on a piece of nori that was soaked in 'tuna juice'. I sent it away. The carpaccio was salted into oblivion, no olive oil, no green to cut the richness, 4 crackers....just overall bad. The wine list reads like a gas station liquor store. No bubbly by the glass. No light reds. I guess I'll just have these two previously frozen rolls instead of edible food or drink. Overall I'm disappointed and I guess I should have known better, however, when in Rome. Won't be back

Shishito peppers had a nice bite, mushrooms were a tad salty. - Swinton Burger: It was ok, pretty standard burger. Patty had a nice pink tonight, though was a bit overcooked on the outside. Good amount of chunky fries. - Sticky Toffee Pudding: The definition of indulgence, as the pudding is drowning in a lake of sauce. - Sunshine Express: Refreshing cocktail. Absolute standout service that's welcoming and helpful. Kitchen is a bit slow, though likely due to the amount of guests they get. Prices are on the higher end. Vibe is elevated casual. Overall an enjoyable night out.

Staff were really nice and they made a great recommendation with adding the carrots as a side. If i had to recommend a unique side it would be the carrots! It was so flavourful- we were all amazed by them. We had to order a steak and they really can cook these well. You can see where they fire them up on the grill. We ordered everything to share - Steak, pasta( i can't remember which one), carrots, fries, chop house potatoes, lamb chops and sticky toffee pudding. Everything we ordered and ate was absolutely delicious and I would definitely be back to enjoy another meal here! The vibe is cool in there, a good option if you're looking for a fancier dinner in the area.

The Caesar Salad with a Twist was great, the air-dried prosciutto was super thin and crispy, with cornbread croutons and fried capers, definitely a nice "twist." The fish taco was good too. The Open Face Prime Rib was a bit disappointing. The beef was dry and had a strange smell. It's not that the beef itself was bad, just that it didn't seem to have been cleaned or prepared properly.
