    The salad bar was really small. It used to bigger and actually could be called a salad bar. It’s pretty sad right now. Just the basics. If I knew it was that small I probably wouldn’t paid the extra cost.

    Management is TOP TIER! Party of 8, had an issue with our waiter (no need to put him on blast but good grief was he unprofessional and rude), we spoke to the manager who apologized AND switched our waiter immediately - she was SO professional and gave us exceptional service. We come here for special occasions and the customer recovery was very much appreciated. Thank you Orange Hill for acknowledging our issue and providing an immediate turn around. One thing to note, the expelled waiter returned to our table and made us uncomfortable by mentioning he had the table “taken from him”…we didn’t need to here from him and not sure why he felt the need to make that statement as we were already made aware, hence why we spoke with Management. Anywho, we will continue to return - delicious food and beautiful restaurant!

    If you’re a fan of LOTR or The Hobbit, don’t expect rounds doors, Longbottom leaf or a bottle of 1296 Old Winyards. What you can expect is one of the most spectacular dining experiences around. My wife and I dine out rather often, maybe too often, and we don’t do fast food or chain restaurants. So we’ve had some pretty memorable dining experiences, but The Hobbit has arisen from their quiet fields to shake the towers and counsels of the Great. We’ll certainly be back. P.S. Frodo lives!

    My husband and I took our (grown) granddaughters to this restaurant last night. It was the first time that any of us had been there, and we were WOWED! Our server, Jason, was amazing! He was helpful without being overbearing and humorous, and very accommodating! The food was excellent...and I'm not a seafood kind of girl, to be honest. I had the scallops and they were perfect...Everyone at our table was 100% happy with their meal...AND the pricing was amazing. I thought that the bill was going to be way higher! We will all definitely be returning!
