Thought we would try this restaurant for our final night in Quebec but it wasn't great. My seafood starter was good but my wife's Quebec meat pie didn't taste nice at all. Ah well.
Next was the red wine. Undrinkable. I had to send it back but there was no wine replacement as we were having the fixed menu so I had to have a beer. Ah well.
I had the duck confit salad which, though colourful, was nothing special. My wife's pork dish was nothing special either. When it came to dessert I noticed they served it with that aerosol cream which I don't like so I asked if I could have my dessert with ice cream. No I couldn't. They have ice cream on the menu so I couldn't understand why not. My maple syrup tart was fine but my wife's dessert was heavy. Ah well.
So, when the bill came at $190 I wasn't minded to give a tip. The waitress made a public display about the fact that I hand't left a tip & I pointed out that if I had received good service, she would have got the tip. However, she argued that she did give good service & should therefore have a tip & got quite angry about it.
Not surprisingly, we wouldn't go back.

Nao gostei muito da torta de carne. Nao tinha muito sabor ou tempero. Entretanto a sobremesa estava maravilhosa, uma das melhores que já comi. Uma torta Maple syrup maravilhosa e valeu cada centavo. O atendimento também fois nota 10. Nao é barato, mas vale a pena.

Came here with my mom for an early dinner. What a fantastic gem this restaurant is! The service is very friendly, the food is authentic French-Canadian prepared from scratch, & the atmosphere is cozy; dine in a repurposed Old Quebec family house with wood-burning fireplace & low ceiling. It's definitely a romantic spot for a date too.

Thank you so much for the unforgettable meal! We will be back!

Un excellent repas & un service exceptionnel, le tout pour un prix plutôt abordable (le midi) au vu de la qualité des produits.

We had a wonderful meal & we were very pleasantly surprised to see some vegan options (beyond just the salad)! The pea soup is also vegan which is a must-try!

Beautiful exterior, oldest building & very attractive from the outside but tourist trap inside. Service was good & prices are very deceiving. We were there for dinner, quite empty. Cushions & colours needed updating although it's meant to look from the last era.. 1860s? Prices for dinner set start at C$69.95 but almost everything you choose has a surcharge. My beef wellington had a $8-9 surcharge, my husband's seafood platter had a $26 surcharge, even the crème brûlée had a $4 surcharge. So the dinner ended up to be about C$120 each. Had to ask for bread which was not automatically served, but came warm & nice. Drafty seat by the window. Service was good but wouldn't recommend it if I was honest.
