Atmosphere is lovely & rustic, service is friendly & attentive. The food was decent, but should be better for the price mark.

Historyczne miejsce i restauracja z tradycjami i klasa. Jedno z nielicznych miejsc, gdzie mozna znalezc tradycyjne quebecanskie potrawy w bardzo dobrej, prawie domowej interpretacji. Bylysmy pod wielkim wrazeniem. Polecamy.

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!

Would give 6 stars if I could! Service was excellent even when the dining area was nearly completely full. Cozy atmosphere with plenty of tables. I ordered the wild game meat pie (tonight's was red deer, bison & elk). Generous portion! So flavorful, tender, & moist (yes, I know this word is "yucky" to some but it's the best I can think of to describe the meat filling) complimented perfectly by the fruit ketchup. The pie crust was flaky & buttery & expertly proportioned so as to not take over the filling without leaving you wanting for more. The veggie selection was delicious as well. I also ordered a non-alcoholic Bloody Mary that was very tasty. Julien was the server. He was attentive but not intrusive to all of the tables he was serving. Helpful & friendly!

Good food, good service. Unique nice atmosphere. $39,99 meals, drink, appetizer, entrée dessert . Did see & hear servers explain certain items raise the bill $4, $8 etc. Never ordered items with higher cost, nothing ever mentioned, bill over $ 60.

Le lieu est charmant & propose plusieurs plats typiques. Je trouve néanmoins que la qualité des plats n'est pas à la hauteur par rapport au prix payé

Beautiful atmosphere! Home cooking, delicious & hearty. The pork with three mustard sauce was very tender & flavorful. It came with perfectly cooked vegetables & potatoes. The Cordon Blue was delicious & also served with vegetables & wild rice. The Pea soup & salad with beets were great appetizers.
