My husband and I came to The Hobbit for my birthday, and it was such a special experience! The food was great- every course felt thoughtfully crafted and beautifully presented. The whole evening was truly unique. But what made it even better was our bartender and server, Alexander. He was so knowledgeable about the wine pairings, and his kindness and attention to detail really stood out. You can tell he genuinely cares about making the night memorable.

I took my girlfriend here for her birthday. We had a wonderful time celebrating.  The staff was amazing. We had a very nice time speaking to our waiter, Andrew.  The environment was amazing. The food was impeccable, and the conversations that we had with each other in this environment, held a special moment for us. Overall, you recommend The Hobbit for a very special occasion, and a memorable moment to share in conversations with our friends. we will return and enjoy other moments in the special place .

The experience was simply amazing and unforgettable something that I've been looking for, and I couldn't find anywhere else. I've already made another reservation for December. Alex was extremely knowledgeable with every course and made our evening that much more special. Make a reservation as soon as possible!

Everything was TRULY exquisite. This is definitely a place for those who have open minds with their palettes. The Somalier pairing was definitely an adventure that I would take again. I will DEFINITELY return during another season for another experience.

From start to finish, the dining experience is something special and unique. The restaurant is a beautiful historic home in Orange. The cocktail hour takes place in the wine cellar. The meticulously crafted cocktails are delicious. We were surprised with a small snack to enjoy while there. Once the dinner service started, we were brought to an intimate room to enjoy the feast. Each course is well executed. The wine pairings were perfectly executed.

Really great food. You cannot beat this experience. Every last bite was perfect. This place will be my yearly anniversary dinner spot.

Dining experience was amazing. Every dish from the pre-fix menu was delicious. I especially loved how the filet tasted. It was cooked to perfection and was very melt in your mouth tender.

Restaurant is a good place to go for special occasions. However, when paying that price, attention to detail is 100% important. Little things like our name misspelled on our name card or wrong wine pairing made me chuckle. I've been blessed in my life to have attended some of the best tasting menu restaurants in the country, and this place was good, but not best. It did offer a unique dining experience as you got to walk around during intermission, meet the chef, tour the kitchen, etc. The building has a lot of historical context to the region of Orange, CA, so that is neat. I loved how all the servers knew their menu and what they were serving, including little details about where things are from or produced. My steak was cooked to perfection. Don't get me wrong, it was a good experience, but I think little tweaks could make take this place to the next level.

The Hobbit is an experience! It is an entire evening of amazing food, beautiful wines, and excellent ambiance. I highly recommend that everyone visits at least once, but be warned-- you will be hooked and will want to go again!

Andrea

The service was amazing and it is a unique experience. All staff was attentive and went beyond in making the dinner enjoyable. Do the wine pairing. The sommelier is very knowledgeable and made a great experience for my dad's birthday. My dad is also particular on how he likes his proteins cooked and it was great they executed perfectly on his particular request.

Ambiance and service was phenomenal. Definitely a place for a date night or special occasion. For me the food was okay. The main course (filet mignon) was cooked very well but felt like it was over salted. Even the broccoli was as well :( The three bites were also okay. Wish it had a little less cream cheese as I felt it over powered everything.

We celebrated our anniversary at The Hobbit Restaurant and felt truly special from start to finish. The staff was amazing — attentive, kind, and made the whole evening feel personal. The food was superb, with each course better than the last. It was more than just dinner — it was a memorable experience we'll never forget.
