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.
Formidable, de l'accueil à l'assiette qui met en valeur les produits & aliments du Québec (également avec l'accord vin, que je recommande). À noter qu'il y a également un menu 5 services végétarien qui met l'eau à la bouche. J'adore le concept: chaque membre de l'équipe maîtrise à la fois le travail minutieux d'élaboration des plats (dans la cuisine ouverte, accessible en tout temps à l'oeil) & le service attentif aux tables. On change donc fréquemment d'interlocuteur ou d'interlocutrice, toutes des personnes agréables, & surtout passionnées. Tout se fait sans esbrouffe dans les échanges, avec aisance & calme, on s'adresse au convive presque sur le ton de la confidence. On y retourne!
Wonderful from start to finish, with dishes that truly highlight Québec's ingredients (& a wine pairing I definitely recommend). I love the concept: every team member handles both the precise work in the open kitchen & the attentive service at the tables. You interact with several staff members, all pleasant & genuinely passionate. Everything is done with calm, ease, & no showiness-spoken to the guest almost in a confidential tone. Let's go back!
Absolutely incredible dining experience in Quebec City. The service was amazing from start to finish - the staff were attentive, knowledgeable, & genuinely welcoming. Everyone was calm, friendly, & more than willing to answer questions or help with anything we needed, which made the entire evening feel relaxed & special.
The food was some of the best I've ever had. Every dish was meticulously crafted & beautifully plated, with an incredible level of care & attention to detail. You can really tell how much thought goes into both the flavors & presentation.
The wine pairing was equally impressive, featuring thoughtfully curated wines that appeared to focus on natural production methods, seemingly avoiding unnecessary additives & chemicals in both the grape growing & winemaking process. Each pairing complemented the dishes perfectly & elevated the experience even further.
This is an absolute must-visit when in Quebec City. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an exceptional culinary experience

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.
Absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish. From the warm welcome at the door to the very last bite, everything was on point. The flavours are creative, thoughtful, & incredibly well-balanced. Every dish felt like it had a purpose. Wine pairing was spot-on-each glass brought out something new in the food without overpowering it. Service was impeccable: friendly, attentive, & genuinely knowledgeable. Arvi nails it on every level. A must if you're in Québec City.
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.
Went here for a fun experience & left absolutely glowing. You're greeted so warmly coming in, with every chef working as a server as well creating this really cool harmony within the restaurant. I saw them make everything in front of us & each dish was explained throughly. Highly recommend a wine pairing since their wine choices are super unique. My biggest thing I'll take from this restaurant is how open & warm all the chefs were. Fantastic people & fantastic cuisine, if you're looking for a fun & full sensory experience, I highly recommend!!
Excellent service, I appreciated how all the servers were able to accommodate us by presenting each dish & wine pairing in English - the team was kind & passionate about what they do! The experience of watching them create dishes in front of you is great as well with casual music & a trendy/upbeat atmosphere - fine dining without the pretentious or stuffy environment - well done! Food was great! A few dishes we loved, a couple were not quite to our taste - but were well executed & may be to others taste. As a place with a rotating/seasonal menu, I would certainly not hesitate to come back & try more dishes!
