Unfortunately, the food was over cooked & bland. Service was good. The establishment plays up the charm of this old building but can't deliver on the food.

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.

A boutique yet roomy restaurant. Actually located in the oldest building in town 😄. Don't miss the lunch special combos if you would like to try some authentic French cuisine.

Super overpriced, subpar quality food. There are many amazing restaurants in Quebec City, but this is not one of them. While there is novelty to the age of the building, it's just not enough to justify the prices here.
If you like an overpriced tourist trap, congratulations, you found one

Charming building with a great location. The food was a disappointment. Overpriced & just average. The salmon came with canned vegetables & Grandma's Plate was not good at all. Definitely feels like a tourist trap.

I was here for the poutine. It was fine.

I guess this place is a bit of a classic in terms of places to go in the city. The building is certainly memorable. I wasn't sure what I wanted & went with the duck poutine. It was fine, as mentioned above. In the end, it's hard to make poutine bad. The duck on it was more or less flavorless, which is why I would give this a 4.

Spinach soup was good & the maple bread pudding was very good.

A tad pricey but I think you pay for the institution. While this place may have seen better days in the kitchen, it's worth going to once in your life.

Beautiful exterior, oldest building & very attractive from the outside but tourist trap inside. Service was good & prices are very deceiving. We were there for dinner, quite empty. Cushions & colours needed updating although it's meant to look from the last era.. 1860s? Prices for dinner set start at C$69.95 but almost everything you choose has a surcharge. My beef wellington had a $8-9 surcharge, my husband's seafood platter had a $26 surcharge, even the crème brûlée had a $4 surcharge. So the dinner ended up to be about C$120 each. Had to ask for bread which was not automatically served, but came warm & nice. Drafty seat by the window. Service was good but wouldn't recommend it if I was honest.

If you are looking for traditional québécois food in a historic building - this is the place. Food is excellent & the staff are happy to have you there !
