We really enjoyed our experience dining here. We both loved our meals-we each had the table d'hôte. Everything tasted like it was prepared with love, not too salty, full of home cooked flavours. It was a real treat to have a traditional Québécoise meal in a historical building. Nice art. Our server, Sam, & his colleague were friendly, attentive & charming. This was the whole experience you could hope for when visiting a place & wanting to discover & learn through food.

Very cozy & historic building & friendly service with totally ok food. Nothing fancy that will blow your mind, but also not terrible or super bland. The service was good & welcoming from the super cheerful guy (don't know his name) & the atmosphere is very cozy.. like sitting in your very old grandmas living room. We got a salmon dish & chicken, was it amazing? Not really. It was a tad bland & lacked some spice, but it wasn't bad. The price was good since it came with a small appetizer & a drink. Worth checking out if you haven't been there.

Warm & welcoming restaurant very close to Chateau Frontenac in Old Quebec. Traditional cuisine, with staff happy to explain dishes. Meat pie was lovely, & the two desserts were wonderful (Maple Bread Pudding & dessert du moment, which was a cranberry & date cake with butter sauce). The building is old, so be aware that the bathrooms are up narrow stairs, & you do need to watch your head & step!

Amazing experience of a gourmet authentic traditional Canadian food. A must visit place. The historical building is partially renovated, with most of it dating back to 1675.

Fabulous restaurant in Old Quebec. I believe on the outside of the building a marker plate dated it to 1675. Food & service were exceptional. Highly recommended!

They have a gluten free menu & I had the escargot & Les Trois Mignons of cerf, wapiti, & bison, which was delicious. I learned on the walking tour it is the oldest building in Quebec City! Full of charm & warm ambience.
