Bel accueil, on y passe un bon moment avec des spécialités locales bien préparées, sauf peut-être la crème brûlée 😉.

Bon restaurant La nourriture n'est pas exceptionnel mais correct. Vous y trouverez des bons plats plutôt classique. L'ambiance & le service sont très correct. Restaurant plutôt « touristique » & « traditionnel »

Enjoyed a hearty meal in this cosy restaurant recommended by friends who are frequent visitors to QC (& this establishment). A stone's throw away from Chateau Frontenac, this restaurant is worth a trek down for "Grandma's treat" & the delicious maple syrup pie!

Wanted a true Quebec food experience & they delivered. They also have an incredible lunch prix fixe menu that lasts until 5:00 pm. Includes wine or beer with meal & is authentic. The waiter & waitress were charming & full of life.

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.
