I really enjoyed the food, & the wine was reasonably priced compared to other places in the area. The food was a tad bit expensive for what you get, but that seems to be representative of the area. The waiter was a real advocate for the dishes & he was not wrong. The rest of the staff were super friendly & welcoming. The restaurant was cool & homey. Got a good table on the second floor overlooking the street & it was awesome.

J'pense que c'était le meilleur repas que j'ai mangé au Canada, & le serveur était parfait!

dinner here was a strange, wonderful experience. the atmosphere, in a truly old building with haphazard decor, is eclectic & homely. the service was friendly, kind, & full of humour from start to finish. we really liked jacob, who took good care of us. the food was thoughtful & felt nourishing to the body & soul. we defaulted to the most quebec-y options & loved every course, from the pea soup to the meat pie to the maple syrup pie. it felt like eating chez mamie. full of good food, we couldn't help but encourage some fellow tourists on the sidewalk to go in & eat immediately! it was easily the most expensive meal we had all weekend, but we had zero regrets.

Una delle esperienze più belle fatte a Québec City.

Aux Anciens Canadiens è un ristorante che riesce a conquistarti ancora prima di iniziare a mangiare. Il locale è storico, magnificamente conservato e curato in ogni dettaglio: entrando si ha davvero la sensazione di fare un salto indietro nel tempo e di cenare in un autentico pezzo di storia del Québec. Un'atmosfera particolare, calda e decisamente diversa dai classici ristoranti turistici.

Il menù è da wow, soprattutto per chi vuole provare qualcosa di tipico e diverso dal solito. La qualità della carne è davvero eccellente, ma il piatto che ci ha conquistato è stato il trio di bisonte, alce e cervo: tre carni particolari, ognuna con caratteristiche e sapori differenti, preparate molto bene e perfette per scoprire qualcosa della cucina locale. Sicuramente uno dei piatti che ricorderò di questa esperienza.

Servizio di primissima qualità: personale professionale, cortese, presente e preparato, perfettamente in linea con il livello del ristorante.

Molto fornita anche la carta dei vini, con un'ampia scelta che permette di trovare facilmente il giusto abbinamento con le diverse proposte di carne.

Nel complesso davvero poco da criticare: location storica affascinante, atmosfera fantastica, menù ricco e particolare, materie prime di qualità e servizio eccellente.

Se si visita Québec City e si vuole vivere non soltanto una cena, ma un'esperienza che trasmetta anche un po' della storia e della tradizione del Québec, Aux Anciens Canadiens merita assolutamente una visita.

Dinner in the oldest building in North America. It was wonderful. My son thoroughly enjoyed his Beef Wellington. My Daughter had the three fillets. Others had the Bison stew, Seafood platter & the grilled salmon plates. The rice with the seafood is wild rice. The beef stew comes on a plate with a small pastry like the beef wellington crust under it.

Lors de mes passages à Québec, je venais visiter ce restaurant & je l'ai recommandé à de nombreuses personnes au fil des trois dernières décennies. Malheureusement, le repas d'hier soir n'était pas à la hauteur. L'emplacement & le décor sont toujours superbes, mais la nourriture ne semble plus aussi authentique ni particulièrement goûteuse.

During my visits to Québec City, I used to come to this restaurant & recommended it to many people over the past three decades. Unfortunately, last night's meal didn't measure up. The location & décor are still wonderful, but the food no longer feels as authentic or particularly flavourful.
