WOnderful, wonderful, wonderful. Everything I look for in a restaurant - personalised efficient but not pushy service, exquisite food without an overly complicated or pretentious menu, excellent wine and a wonderful (I'm in my loungeroom) kind of atmosphere with the added bonus of being a very short walk to a great cinema (The State) and numerous other shops, etc. More

It is nice to eat in restaurants and cafes that want to get it right. Our meal wasn't faultless - but the effort and heart that has been put into this restaurant is much appreciated. Service: Warm, friendly, knowledgeable. In other words: professional. Like. Very much. Wine (& Beer list): For a place of this size, good. Actually really good.... More

Solicit is one of my all time favourites when it comes to dining in Hobart, and it is one of the few that I believe offers value far above and beyond it's price. It's been the scene of many happy meals with friends and family, and is a go-to spot for many of my urban family for nights out. I... More

Solicit is without a doubt one of our favourite restaurants in Hobart. From the warm and friendly greeting at the front door to the cosy dining area within an older converted shop front, Solicit never fails to deliver that something special to your evening. The staff are genuinely friendly and knowledgeable about their menu and drinks selections. Solicit has a... More

Visiting Hobart to go to MONA, we followed Tripadvisor advice and had dinner at Solicit last Saturday evening. It was a cold, rainy night, but we were so happy that we ignored the weather as it was a perfect evening. The meals were delicious, mine a crusted fish and my husbands the pork. There was no pressure to buy bottled... More

Pricey but very nice. I had the tasting platter (as an entree) - where one small portion of five or so dishes is on your plate to taste (very small) and pork fillet served on asian greens. Sauce on the fillet was outstanding and the dish beautifully presented. My husband is lactose intolerant so it wasn't the best place to... More

The sign out the front of the restaurant says, "Casual during the day,interesting at night" and I think this sums up this restaurant. The decor is more of a casual suburban cafe style, while the food at night is fine dining. The service was excellent - attentive and friendly, and the menu was varied. The cheese selection was good, and... More

We dined at Solicit to celebrate a friend's birthday. Dressed in smart casual. Service was from a very friendly male staff member who was very attentive and shared a few jokes with us. It was nice to have some genuine interaction from a "real" person with interest and pride in the product he delivers to people. Servings were tasty with... More

We went there to celebrate my partners birthday. Located in an Elizabeth st shop front with several smaller back rooms with comfortable cushioned seating. As the restaurant is divided up it's not too noisy and gives some privacy. I wasn't a great fan of the herb loaf as I found it very oily, but my partner loved it. We had... More
