We heard about this restaurant on our old Quebec Walking Tour & from a friend. It is a unique restaurant featuring an excellent 3 Course Meal & glass of wine or beer for $64.99 (Canadian $). These are full servings. A lot if delicious food. Their white wine & dark beer were each very good. The Pumpkin & Pea Soups were tasty & especially good on this cool day. Entrees of the Meat Pie & the Pork Tenderloin were each delicious. Finishing with the tantalizing desserts of Maple Bread Pudding & Blueberry Pie was terrific. The upstairs is a nice setting for couples.

I loved the atmosphere of this place, you can tell it's a house-turned-restaurant & it's charming, feels almost like you're eating at grandma's house. The staff were also lovely! That said the food was just ok... The pea soup was very good, but that's where it ended - the meat pie was ok, the meatballs surprisingly came in a cinnamon sauce (very unexpected), the veggies & sides felt like an afterthought, & the creme brulee didn't taste like maple, vanilla or anything other than a regular pudding. If there was a way to taste the unique dishes without getting the full 3 course meal, it would have been fantastic, but unfortunately you can only take appetizers a la carte... Not cheap & not worth it, in my opinion.

Food is great & our waiter was very nice! We had lunch here & it was $39 for drink, appetizer, main, & dessert. Simple great deal! I loved meat pie & maple caramel bread pudding! Our waiter was very kind & explained each dish. The place was like a little old house with cozy feeling. Would love to come back here again if I visit Quebec City in the future!

Great old house decorations as well. Definitely one of the best sports to eat local dishes other than poutine. They have a well curated menu & some special dishes. The house wine paired perfect & the dessert I recommend maple bread pudding

Best food & wine that we have had in Canada. Maitre'd was personable & very accommodating, & our waiter, Sandrine, was helpful, efficient, & a delight. We were very happy to see the extensive wine list. We loved the Bison Bourguignon & the three grilled tenderloins, & very much appreciated the host of veggies that came with them. The maple Crème Brulee was to die for!

Legendary traditional Quebec food that we look forward to every time we visit Quebec! Not a bad bite on the menu. Standouts are Bison bourguignon, lobster bisque & maple bread pudding. Our waiter Sam was the best. Highly recommend!

Dining inside what is considered the oldest house in Quebec was so charming. Our waitress was very friendly & the food was absolutely incredible! For appetizers, my family enjoyed the very cheesy escargot dish & my dad absolutely loved the French onion soup. In terms of entrees, the filet mignon dish was tasty & the meat pie (which I was looking forward to trying in Quebec) was better than I could have ever imagined & I really enjoyed its flaky crust. For desserts, we chose the chocolate pie & the maple crème brûlée, & they were nothing short of spectacular. In fact, the crème brûlée was the best I have ever eaten! Since ordering dishes individually can really add up, I recommend ordering in the form of a formule ($39.99+ for 1 drink + 1 appetizer + 1 entree + 1 dessert), which allows you to try a complete meal for a fraction of the cost of ordering each component individually. Overall, I enjoyed dining at Aux Anciens Canadiens & hope to be back again someday!

This is my favourite restaurant in old Quebec City!! So quaint & the food....delicious homestyle cuisine with very generous portions. You will not walk away hungry!!! Oh & you gotta try the grand-mere's treat & the maple syrup bread pudding. Friendly & welcoming staff who are more than happy to answer any questions about the menu! Set in a historical building just a few steps away from Chateau Frontenac & other hotels! Make your reservation here for a memorable dining experience!!
