ARVI bouscule les conventions pour revenir à l’essence de l’expérience humaine en restauration. S’y exprime une cuisine libre, forte en caractère, portée par la même équipe, des fourneaux jusqu’aux clients. Les produits de saisons s’y déclinent en deux menus dont les plats sont confectionnés sous vos yeux, dans un esprit de proximité et de convivialité aussi réjouissant qu’inhabituel.
ARVI propose une expérience culinaire exceptionnelle et immersive à Québec, marquée par un concept original de cuisine ouverte où l'équipe en cuisine assure également le service en salle. Les convives soulignent la grande qualité des menus dégustation créatifs qui mettent en valeur les produits du terroir québécois, avec une mention spéciale pour le foie gras signature et les accords vins particulièrement appréciés. L'atmosphère chaleureuse, intime et conviviale est portée par une équipe passionnée, professionnelle et attentionnée. Considéré par beaucoup comme une destination gastronomique de premier plan, le restaurant est vivement recommandé pour ceux qui recherchent un moment mémorable alliant raffinement et authenticité.
One of the best meals I had in Quebec. Every course was delicious, beautifully executed, & full of character. The open kitchen made the experience even more enjoyable, & the team was incredibly friendly & professional. As a chef, I truly appreciated the attention to detail & the respect for local ingredients. Thank you for an unforgettable evening!
Excellent meal. We did the vegetarian tasting. Absolutely loved every course & wine. The servers/ chefs were super friendly & explained each course thoughtfully! We loved loved loved our meal & will def be back next trip. Excellent all around
My visit to Arvi left me with mixed feelings. With the restaurant often associated with a Michelin-level dining experience, my expectations were naturally quite high.
Unfortunately, the evening started with a noticeable delay. Our reservation was at 7:00 PM, yet the first appetizer arrived only at 8:00 PM. Waiting an entire hour for the first bite felt unusually long for a restaurant positioning itself at this level of fine dining.
As for the cuisine, while there were moments of creativity, only about three dishes truly stood out as being at the level one would expect from a Michelin-caliber kitchen. One of these was a pleasant surprise from the chef, which was indeed memorable & thoughtfully executed.
The wine pairing, however, felt less precise than expected. The selections did not always complement the dishes in a harmonious way, & the overall pairing seemed somewhat unfocused.
There were certainly highlights during the evening, but when dining at a restaurant of this reputation, one hopes for a seamless experience - where timing, precision, & harmony between food & wine come together effortlessly. Unfortunately, that balance was not fully achieved during this visit.
Ok this was a very nice experience.
We were a party of 4 peeps & we had a blast!!
First of all, when I arrived i got confused because there was another restaurant next to it, then I kinda look to the glass & I saw random printed letters & it reads'A R V I', so i kinda like it is not a flashy place.
The service is great, they don't have serveurs so it's the same kitchen staff who's bringing the dishes & wine. They were all very nice & informative about anything we got to ask so'shout out' to them & the chef.
We have a 5 course dinner paired with wine & everything was delicious, it was a really nice trip with some unfamiliar flavors or ingredients, which we were so happy to take & discover.
100% recommended
5 course menu paired with wine plus services was around $200 pp
We stayed around 3hours & a half.
Ps. Look for'Domaine Arvi' on maps, this is the winery from the chef & they do have visits & food also, check it out!
Nous avons pris le menu dégustation avec l'accord de vins ce qui fut un excellent choix . Bien sûr je vous recommande de prendre le pain au foie gras en extra qui se révèle être un coup de coeur cochon mémorable!
Des plats confectionnés avec des ingrédients locaux qui nous font découvrir des producteurs d'ici. Une belle harmonie créé par le chef Julien Masia. Ce fut également un beau spectacle de voir toute l'équipe faire le service tout en cuisinant tout au long de la soirée.
We had a fantastic meal at ARVI. High quality food made from local & in season ingredients & excellent wine pairings. It's also quite the show in an open kitchen with every chef sharing all responbilities, both FOH & BOH.
