The Hobbit is a unique restaurant for a lot of reasons. First of all, this restaurant offers a seven-course prix fixe menu every Wednesday through Sunday beginning at 7 p.m. The experience begins with a trip to the impressive wine cellar, where you can pick out the wine you are going to enjoy with your meal. After that, you head to your table for a light meat or fish and a salad. Then instead of going straight ahead with the meal, you get 15 minutes where you can walk on the patio or speak with the chefs. Finally comes the main event with the entree, dessert and after-dinner drinks. Reservations and proper attire are required for this dinner. Visit The Hobbit's website for more details.
