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.
Our dinner at ARVI, on a snowy Friday night in Quebec, was truly world-class. Our table was situated between the two front work stations, where we could watch our dishes being prepared with meticulous precision infused with passion. Starting with the beyond fresh oysters, accompanied by two inventive cocktails reflecting ARVI's commitment to local sustainable ingredients, we spent nearly three hours enjoying dishes that were as incredible to taste as they were to look at. This is a restaurant that reflects the sort of commitment to quality that you see in the finest temples of gastronomy, but you get to enjoy it in an intimate setting, where every chef is also your server & host. We cannot recommend ARVI enough to anybody reading this review. We know that we will be back the next time we are anywhere close to Quebec.
Fun, lively atmosphere with engaging & knowledgeable staff. Delicious & well-executed dishes & we loved the creative pairings. One of the best meals we've had in a long time!

What an amazing experience! The chefs are the waiters & waiters are the chefs with kitchen right in the middle of the restaurant; Every dish was exactingly constructed before our eyes! Then the waiter/chefs brought the dishes to the table & explained in detail the food & the local sources. Some things I have never tasted before including the amazing dessert made with Haskap Berries! I don't know if any other restaurant will ever live up to this experience!
This was a phenomenal tasting menu with very creative dishes & flavor combinations. The morel mushroom dish was outstanding & the dessert was an unexpected surprise of mushroom, couscous & fresh herb that I want again! Truly an amazing experience, thank you!
Came here on a rainy Thursday night with my son while visiting Quebec City. Sat at the table right next to the kitchen. So close, we had a front row seat. It was clear how each team member loved their job & took great pride. We had the 5 course price fixe & ordered a few glasses of wine, The food was quite unique, all sourced locally & absolutely delicious. The team explains each dishes ingredients & preparation which adds to the experience. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're visiting QC.
Five stars on friendly & dedicated staff, but 2 stars on the food itself. We applaud the creative daring that went into the unusual dishes, but unfortunately, all but one or two of them completely missed the mark on the most basic requirement of good cuisine: the food must taste delicious & make you want more. The restaurant has a great energy. Keep working at it.
The dining experience at Arvi was excellent. My wife & I had the regular & vegetarian menus between us. All of the dishes were well balanced & showcased great local ingredients. The foie gras & lamb with mussel dishes were stand outs. The service was friendly & pacing of dishes was good considering that the staff cooked & served. Wonderful to have sat next to the prep table & got to interact with the cooks.
It was hard to pick a favourite dish out of the 5 courses (& foie gras add-on) - I was certainly delighted with the duck, but did not expect that the corn would be such a highlight in that dish as well! Every dish had something a little unexpected that left my taste buds excited. Even though the food was undoubtedly the stars of the show, each wine that went with the dishes was also superb. & we were taken care of by the excellent staff, who took the time before each dish to explain the concept & ingredients to make sure we got the most out of tasting them. A fabulous evening!
Dishes are not only creative & beautiful, but also delicious. We are not French speakers. Staffs are super friendly to help on winr pairing & answered our questions. One of the must try restaurant in Quebec City.
