    Suppose to be Contact info for Hobbit written by Manager Leo at Pensacola St Location, after I asked for Complaint info.
    Angelique L.

    DONE with this place and lack of service. Waited over 35 mins for food, finally got served food that was COLD. Angel was our waitress, super nice, attentive. Apparently kitchen issues, informed Leo, Manger, he was useless. Asked for Complaint contact, Leo wrote what looks like Cee U Next Tuesday, on ticket, he claims he didn't mean it that way, when i confronted him, seems he was trying to disguise his message, i emailed the owner on 12/30, its now 1/6/23, to date no professionalism or courtesy of a respone. Im done. These businesses in Tallahassee need to learn the meaning of SERVICE and Hospitality. I can spend my money elsewhere. Attached is the handwritten note from Manager Leo Previous review (5 Months Ago) Can be hit or miss. 1st visit was good, a little rocky, but Taylor our waitress made it Great, she addressed mistakes and made it much better. 2nd visit was a bomb, waitress was super nice, just needs more training on what to do and NOT to do when you make mistakes. Her attentive service made up for a lot.

    The atmosphere of the Hobbit American Grill is like a classy dive bar. It's dimly lit with your typical neon glow. Very obviously a popular spot amongst Seminole fans, the whole bar is furnished with FSU swag. The menu is extensive with something for everyone. From salads, to sandwiches, to their impressive burger menu, they have it all! I ordered the Froto Burger which was an excellent choice. The burger tasted great and was cooked perfectly. The meat was obviously of high quality. The fries lacked slightly in flavor but were otherwise quite tasty. I would definitely eat here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a laid back sports bar feel.

    Decent crowd for Monday night trivia.

    The original Hobbit location has been around for decades if I'm not mistaken. They play by their own rules, which may sometimes have you question their business practices. But in the end, they make a consistently good product. Tonight's service was on point. Our server, _________ (insert male name here) was personable, attentive and a seasoned pro. I ordered 15 wings, Garnet & Gold style. They were cooked well and were not over-sauced. I licked my fingers until the very last bite. My friend's burger and fries were very good - according to him. The slight hiccup was halfway through the meal. I asked if I could get some "celery or carrots" with my wings. The server replied with "blue cheese or ranch?" and I replied, "blue cheese, thanks." An order of celery and carrots came out a few minutes later and I immediately had the inclination I was going to be charged for them. When my check was handed to me, I noticed a charge of $3.25 for the "veggie plate" even though I wasn't aware of the up charge. If you know me, you know I'm no stickler. But c'mon, no celery and carrots with an order of wings? I ordered 15 for crying out loud! I think that's a little cheap on the business side of things. The server was super apologetic, and even offered to [paraphrasing] "sneak an extra blue cheese for you from the kitchen." It's just very tacky to think of a business being so dang frugal. Were my wings good? Yes. Was my service good? Yes. Was my experience worth $21.46 including a 23% tip? No way. Of course this isn't going to stop me from coming back. Hobbit is a Pensacola Street institution. A place for college students and sports fans to gather together. However, air on the side of caution that what you see is what you get. And in this instance, that's not exactly the best thing.

    Coconut Margarita

    Our favorite bartender Kirstin makes the best Coconut Margaritas! Stop in and try one!

    I asked for light sauce and this is what I received, DISGUSTING. (I took the wings out of the box)

    I had wanted to try Leon's at Lake Ella and just hadn't been able to get there on the right day. We…read morewere so fortunate that we decided to take a chance on a Saturday just one short hour before closing time. The weather was beautiful and we snagged a lovely lakeside table. Our lunch was beyond expectations! The She Crab and Tomato bisques were savory, filling, and hearty enough to eat as a standalone. Paired with the sandwiches, they satisfied our tummy with enough leftover for dinner too. The Fried Green Tomato sandwich was a perfect blend of savory and sweet with the tomato jam kissing the Rosemary Focaccia and the Boursin cheese added a nice bite. The Grilled Cheese sandwich brought us back to our childhood but better, with an adult flavor profile for refined palates. Shhh don't tell Mom. The level of care, expertise, and love that goes into each of these dishes, shines through each and every bite. We had the pleasure of enjoying Chef Leon's food at a local charity event. We were fortunate to snag a very coveted lunch spot. The restaurant is going through some changes and is currently not serving lunch BUT Chef Leon is offering soup orders on a regular basis. My goodness! I can just put all of my pots and pans away and order directly from him. I look forward to what Chef Leon has planned for us next. Be sure to follow him on Facebook to stay up to date on his plans and to get alerted to his next date for soup orders. I AM CERTAIN THAT WHATSVER Chef Leon has planned, it will be worth the wait.

    Closed. Hope he reopens in Tally…read more Use to be a good spot on lake Ella to eat. Sad to see this chef owned/operated eatery close.
