En visite a Québec, l'endroit nous avez été conseillé & les notes google semblaient indiqué un beau lieu. Mais outre le charme du bâtiment d'époque, le lieu est un attrape touristique qui propose une cuisine,pas immangeable, mais vraiment médiocre. Le prix du menu Entrée, plat & dessert + boisson reste très correct, mais attention à ne pas sortir des éléments inclus... $15 la petite assiette de frittes hors menu, c'est quand même un peu du vol...

Une institution en perdition? Beware. $15 for a side of fries. You've been warned.

A fine choice for a dinner out! Menu has a great variety & everything tasted fine. Make a reservation & dine in small groups - seating is extremely limited & walk-ins often wait a long time, even on weekdays. Get the maple crème brûlée!

The restaurant was cozy, charming, & warm. The house itself was lovely & oozed Christmas vibes. We were seated in a quiet area which was a former bedroom of the historical house. The staff were friendly & inviting. We appreciated the coat check at the door as we went during the snowy season, however, it wasn't supervised. The food was overpriced & didn't meet our expectations in terms of flavour or taste. We ordered the game meat pie & Quebec meat pie (I was expecting a tortiere, which it wasn't). The food was simply bland homestyle food. Not worth $40-$45/plate.
