Aux Anciens Canadiens

5.0

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.

Exceptional food, but terrible atmosphere & judgmental service
?The food was absolutely incredible, even extraordinary! If you want to try local game meats like bison & deer, I highly recommend it. However, despite the amazing food, the physical conditions of the restaurant & the attitude at the end of our meal completely ruined the experience.
?On a day when it was 31°C outside, we chose to sit indoors expecting AC. However, the upper floor had no working air conditioning at all, making it extremely hot & humid. On top of that, there is only one restroom available, causing long lines.
?At the end of the night, we paid a bill of $200+. When it came to tipping, we left an amount based on our preference, keeping in mind that service fees are already part of the business model & extra tipping is fundamentally a voluntary gesture of appreciation. Our waitress clearly did not like the amount & judgmentally asked if there was a problem. When we said everything was fine, she snatched the payment, left without saying thank you or a single polite word, & completely ignored our table for the rest of the time.
?Being judged over a tip is unacceptable. Go for the food, but be prepared for a rude awakening at checkout if you don't leave an aggressively high tip.

Oldest house in Quebec. You'll feel like you time travelled with the decor, low ceilings (watch your head!), & food like your ancestors cooked. Felt like home eating cooking with veg that wasn't over seasoned, simple dishes like bison meat bourginignon (sp?) & maple pie (59 -year-old recipe. The service was outstanding. Go upstairs for a museum of tools & devices hundreds of years old. Again, watch your head.

I had the meat pie with deer, bison, elk, & beef, & my girlfriend had the hunter chicken. Both dishes were dry, overcooked, & clearly reheated. Everything came out lukewarm & the vegetables tasted like they were previously frozen. For the price they charge, it was very disappointing & not worth it. The menu prices are very high even if the food was executed perfectly much higher then the neighboring restaurants.

Abbiamo prenotato in questo ristorante convinti di gustare cucina canadese con un buon rapporto qualità prezzo. Abbiamo mangiato dei buoni piatti (bisonte, anatra, maiale), altri sono piaciuti di meno (poutine), sulla valutazione finale ha inciso il conto, che ci sembra eccessivo per un locale rustico con una cucina anch'essa molto rustica.

Vous recherchez un très bon restaurant à Québec ?
Vous êtes à la bonne adresse !!
Une cuisine raffinée qui propose les spécialités Québécoises & de très bonnes pièces de viande (Cerf, Wapiti, Bison…)
De surcroît, l'un des seuls restaurant qui sait faire une vraie Poutine avec le fameux fromage qui fait skouik-skouik sous la dent ! ☺?
Je recommande à 200%!

Had a superb traditional Quebec dinner at this popular restaurant housed within a building which originated in the 1670's. The beef & bison pie dishes were delicious. Service was friendly & professional. A highly enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommended.
