Never will go again!

by kristinlia at Citysearch

I went to the Hobbit based on the reviews and wanted a placet that would be interesting to a 6 year old. However, the food was so bad it was unedible. The nacho's were huge and not bad but the burgers were terrrible. Don't go here with high expectations.

  • Pros: Hidden location
  • Cons: The awful food

Not good for babies

by EllieBell at Citysearch

This is not a family friendly restaurant! I had gone here before and liked the food even the the place was rundown and dirty and a bit dark. I brought the baby this time (9months). I arrived a bit before my party and was seated with rude looks from the wait staff and the host. When the waiter placed the drink on the table I asked him if he could move it further away so the baby would not get it (my hands were full). He raised his eyebrows at me-moved it a fraction of an inch-and then said, rudely, "Anything else I can do for you?". When the time came to order the baby grabbed my menu and stuck it in his mouth-ripping it out would have meant loud screaming so I asked if we would keep it-the waiter glared at me and I said, unless you are running low-he said, no-it is just GROSS and then walked away! I was planning on wiping the menu down before I gave it back! Clearly this is not a baby or family friendly place.

pass

by frequentdiner100 at Citysearch

Food is average to mediocre. The menu hasn't changed in a while and it needs to. My salad had limp, warm lettuce. Soup was purported to be vegetable but was almost all muchrooms and was way to salty. Service was mediocre. Parking lot is a moonscape and needs to be resurfaced, really.

  • Pros: nice location
  • Cons: see review

DIRTY

by BaristaLJ at Citysearch

This place is full of six legged creepy crawlies, my husband loves their burgers because he doesn't like spicy things, I think this place is too bland. They need to get their parking lot fixed, they need new chairs, they need to take care of the rodent issue, seating is cramped, and their bathrooms are gross! The ladies room stalls have shower curtains for doors...

  • Cons: everything

bad experience

by yikes2 at Citysearch

Everything was all right until we were seated. We waited 10 min. just to get the water, 20 minutes after we ordered our food to get our nacho, and then another 30 more minutes to get the enteree. Our waiter never even came by to check on us or to let us know how's the food coming along, considering the long wait. When we finally got to see him with our food, we told him it took very long, and he had an attitude, saying "what do you want me to do? Saturday nights are very busy." He didn't even apologize. With all the time we had waiting for our food, we were counting how long it took them to serve the table next to ours. 3 minutes for their drinks, 8 minutes to get their quesadilla. I think it was just our server, but we're never going there again!

  • Pros: interesting
  • Cons: very slow service, attitude
