Hob Nob Restaurant

Honestly my friend and I were really hyped to come here, she had been here years ago and it was my first time. The wait wasn’t a problem and the host was really nice and probably would have been an excellent server if we were in her section. Ours on the other hand wasn’t terrible but obviously didn’t care about us at all. She clearly forgot our drinks at the bar when we finally got them 15ish min later they were warm and completely flat. Like if I opened a bottle of champagne the night before and tried to use it for a mimosa the next day. My food wasn’t bad at all, (except the partially frozen strawberries) it just wasn’t hot and the avocado was that shade of brown from sitting under a heat lamp for too long, disappointing but probably would have been good if I got it fresh. My friend’s food was sooooo bad though. The cheese was rock hard on the edges and the burger was burnt, dry and straight up nasty. Fries tasted old. The server never asked how anything was and just dropped a check when we still had half of our meal left. We took it as a sign and left. I really, really wanted to like this place and the one really nice thing I have to say is I often get sick from cross contamination with gluten and I did not get sick here at all. Disappointing overall.

The Hob Nob is absolutely delicious! I have celiac disease, and was so happy to come across gluten-free Hollandaise sauce (made in-house) and an all-around delicious gluten-free breakfast! I got a classic Benny and had it topped on a bed of shredded hashbrowns. The staff was so kind, the atmosphere was cozy and cute, and our server (I believe his name was Cesar) was incredibly funny & sweet. Next time I am in Tacoma, I will definitely be back!
