Great wings = Great fun
However, third time in the last five that our food was cold. Would make sense if at least one item was very hot but all is cold. Not a service issue because different servers - whoever is expediting kind of sucks. Also, hot dog buns are always broken - not the easiest for little kids to eat. Easy to see though if you care about how the food is going out.

Been another two years. Prices increased. Over $100 for lunch. Food still not hot coming out and always forget something. Like the wings but not that much to go back for the money. Real shame because s Tally staple.

The wings were crispy and hot, however the garlic parm wing and medium buffalo sauces were surprisingly lacking in flavor. Typical sports bar atmosphere with a large dining room. Our service was really slow but our server was super nice and funny. Would eat here again to try a couple different items.

Best location in town by far. Brandon was our server and we had a great time. Been here tons of times but first time having Brandon as our server and I'll make sure I ask for him again. Food was fantastic as usual. Compliments to the chef!!

Im a eater. Thursday is the time to go. 99 cent wings. I get garnet and gold which is a Carolina Gold and med buffalo sauce. They could a 12 Oz option for dipping sauce. Ranch is AMAZING!!! Corn nuggets are my appetizer along with veggie basket and I usually take most of the veggies and ranch home.

The Hobbit has been a staple in Tallahassee for many many years. When I was in school at Florida State during the 90s we were at The Hobbit all the time. If you're a chicken wing aficionado can you connect go wrong at The Hobbit. My favorite for many years has been the garnet and gold wings. You can get them at any spice level you want and they are simply delicious.

I unfortunately had a terrible first visit here last weekend. Our orders which were pretty much just wings, took over an hour to be brought out. Everything was so salty it was almost bitter. The waitress was great, but the kitchen is terrible. Definitely not worth the 20-something dollars we spent per person.

I truly hope that this reaches upper management and the owners. Last Thursday my wife and I were in Tallahassee for a very important doctor's appointment and were drove up all the way from Citrus County a little north of Crystal River, just over 3 hours. Appointment went fantastic but we were wiped from having to get up at 3 a.m. to be there by 7:45.
After the appointment we had a little time to kill and we don't get to visit often so we decided to do a little bit of shopping but couldn't find ANY FSU apparel other than the highly expensive garnet and gold store. I just wanted to buy a local shirt from the mecca if you can understand that from a fan's standpoint but after 3 hours and several different empty stores I was feeling defeated honestly.
Now that the picture has been painted for our mindsets walking in, this is where the 5 *stars* comes in to play. My wife and I are very tired, fairly hungry and just ready to be home honestly but we're not those types of people to take it out on others.
We walked in, washed our hands and picked a table. Shortly after our incredible waiter came over and introduced himself, his name was Dustin ( hands down this guy is an asset and has a calling for what he does ) he asked how we were and I was honest with him and told him almost exactly what I typed from the beginning of our morning.
I asked him if they sold shirts from their restaurant kind of expecting a NO but understanding that all the same as it might be a uniform thing. He took down all my information and submitted it to the manager on duty, her name was Akilah I believe and she was fantastic. She went & checked and I'm a very large man with a hard to find shirt size but some how she had it and a brand new design that even our waiter had not seen yet. Out of all my FSU shirts from being a fan since the late 80's this is at the top.
I was going to apologize to for writing such a long review and I truly hope you've stayed this long to finish it because we honestly live in an often miserable world that people will write a novel on what went wrong but rarely for what went right. Today is different because a week ago was different. The food was perfect, the staff was perfect and Dustin especially along with Akilah changed my whole day around and the ride home that I was dreading was actually pleasant.
We will return as much as we can, Hobbit American Grill (east) is our home restaurant in Tallahassee. We can't thank y'all enough for the hospitality and I'm ready for another shirt!
Sincerely, Mike & Cherrie Sowell 2025
GO NOLES!

Waited two hours for our food, fries were beyond over salted and wings were dry as possible. You could’ve told me the wings came from a gas station and I would’ve believed you.

Recently visited for lunch on a Friday and it took an hour and a half for food after placing the order. The service was bad. The quality and taste of the food has gone downhill. Overall this was a disappointing experience and I can't say I'll be back anytime soon.
