About

The great story of a small bistro... Like a treasure buried in the heart of Faubourg St-Jean, a really well-kept secret ... the story of The Hobbit. This small, unpretentious bistro, is a reflection of the character of Tolkien, it carries with it the greatness of a story whose echo is still heard today at the cafe. Over time, it became the place where culinary delights come together in an ambiance worthy of a warm and cozy home. But beware, behind that familiar face, between the stones of this old house lurk ghosts that give The Hobbit that "je ne sais quoi" and make it a place apart from all others.

I had dinner here last night with some friends & we were absolutely blown away by the amazing food & fantastic service. Our waiter was so knowledgeable about the menu & the wine list & really made our night so enjoyable. I had the braised buffalo cheek risotto with wild mushrooms & Brussels sprouts & it was full of flavour & perfectly cooked. Would definitely recommend!

Nous recommandons vivement ce trésor de petit resto!
Lors de notre visite de 2 jours à Quebec pour voir les grands voiliers, nous avons vécu un moment mémorable pour un banal mercredi de semaine, mais qui était pour nous, moi & mon mari, un 37e anniversaire de mariage.
Le repas était excellent: joue de boeuf & pieuvre fumée en entrées, tartare de saumon & côtelettes d'agneau comme plats principaux. Tout était succulent & tendre à souhait! De plus, le serveur nous a merveilleusement bien conseillé pour le vin 🍷!
Bravo à tous les Intervenants qui ont fait un succès de cette belle soirée & merci encore pour toutes vos belles attentions!

The food was delicious.but the service was so so. Waiter spilled water & didn't wipe it just said sorry & left. Same happened when the waiter brought beer. We were waiting for appetizers for 40 mins. I would recommend to bring at least bread when people waiting more than 15 mins. & we had to ask for bread. Later they would change the bread but not butter:-) all of us were pretty happy with food so that's why we left 15% tip, not 20%. Just a recommendation: please make sure next time that party of 5 won't be a newspaper author:-) I believe this is an upscale restaurant! Thank you!

Visited Le Hobbit with my wife November 25th.
We were well received a the door & promptly seated next to the front window on a nice snowy night.
My wife loved the onion soup while I enjoyed the Trout tartare. Both dishes were fantastic.
Our main courses were Crab Risotto while I had the Lamb Chops. The Risotto was cooked perfectly. The Lamb was a nice pink in the middle with the right amount of spice to make the that much more enjoyable.
I would recommend this to anyone. It's just a short walk outside the old city wall.
