I stumbled upon this restaurant while walking behind the hotel and ended up having brunch there—it was so good that I made a reservation for dinner too. The food was delicious and fresh, and the plating was great, and friendly staffs! The dinner menu portions are a bit small, so needed to order many dishes. Overall, I think brunch is the better option. Plus, if you dine in a get a coffee, you get one time refill for free.

My partner and I found this restaurant while on a walk and I’m so glad we did! We stopped in on a Monday afternoon and they were serving their brunch and lunch menus.  It was relatively quiet with a few tables filled with folks on business lunches or casual hang outs.

We sat down right away and I asked if they had iced tea, to which our incredible server replied, “no, but I can make one!” and then proceeded to make the most delicious and refreshing beverage!  Everything we had was absolutely fantastic and it ended up being one of our favorite meals in the city. The Çilbir had the most fresh and delicious garlic yogurt with chickpeas roasted to perfection. The poached eggs and yogurt made it easy to scoop up the chickpeas for a full and delicious bite. I’ll be dreaming about this for a long time.  Somehow this was only $13 CAD as well!

The tartiflette was also amazing. I wanted to drink the sauce right out of the bowl. The bacon was thick and flavorful. The homemade focaccia was…perfect. Loved the butter.

The deviled eggs were so incredibly tasty. The fried chicken skin on top was the perfect addition for texture and well-seasoned.

HIGHLY recommend coming here. We can’t wait to come back!

Very good service, we went for Valentine's Day. They had a special tasting menu for that day. Skipping the tasting menu, we order "a la carte". We had 2 appetizers, Brie cheese with "tartinade de figues", which was very good, and the Duck Tartare. That second plate wasn't very good, it lacked flavor.
For the main course we ate Boudin (blood sausage) and "Encornet braisé", which is a mix of Calamari with Snails and foie gras. The boudin was good and the encornet was very flavorful. That last one was a taste I really can't compare to anything, but very good.
I recommend this place, the whole team is very knowledgeable about the dishes and the service is impeccable.

Le Hobbit was a lovely restaurant but my wife and I found our three dishes to be quite bland. The portions were so small that we ended up at a nearby crepe shop just to have a full stomach.
For the price paid, I would’ve liked to have left with a better experience.
