Wow.... very impressive. No wonder it's on 1001 places to go before you die. Little pricey but so good & so much historical ambience! The maple creme Brule was awesome indeed.

The Three tenderloin dish was absolutely delicious. Starting from the deer to the bison & then the elk meat you can taste the differences in the meat. All three were delicious 😋. Unfortunately there was no draft beer available but only local beer out of cans...

Authentic restaurant for sure, the food was traditional & different we enjoyed it a lot, beef bourguignon & chicken cordon blue. We got maple bread pudding, but it was too sweet.

Historic restaurant right near downtown historic Quebec. Got the lunch set menu for 40$. Came with beer or wine, an appetizer, a main plate, & a dessert. Many many options & some that have up charges so if you get those items you will come out above the 40$. I got beer, pea soup (to try the traditional soup), grandma's treat (meat pie, fruit ketchup, meatball ragout, & some veggies), & the maple pie. All were great & is a great deal for lunch menu. Did not leave hungry.
