Restaurant housed in the oldest house in Quebec City. This was my third visit to the city, but my first time actually trying a traditional Quebecois restaurant. It was one of the places the staff at the Fairmont had recommended last year, so I finally came for their lunch special.
Quebec comfort food. Nothing mind-blowing or flashy, but exactly what I'd expected from a French grandma's kitchen. It actually reminded me of the dishes my French professor used to make when she hosted Thanksgiving dinners at her house. Familiar flavors, a few quirky condiments, & an overall sense of home-style warmth.
Quebec Meat Pie - Meat pie with ketchup didn't sound very French, but the ketchup turned out to be fruit ketchup. Jammy, tangy, somewhere between salsa & chutney. The diced tomatoes & beets mixed in gave it a nice twist.
Beer Bourguignon - A solid entrée. The beef was a little too lean for my taste, but otherwise comforting.
Maple Syrup Pie - Texturally closer to a soft pecan pie but much sweeter. Maple flavor got lost under all the syrup & sugar, though still enjoyable enough as a classic finisher.

We really enjoyed the ambience & history of this restaurant. The dinner was good highlight was the maple bread pudding. Beef Wellington was okay, French Onion Soup delicious & the Quebec Meat Pie was pretty good. The service was okay. We did not find the price reflected the food. It was pricey for what we got.
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%!
We had heard wonderful experiences of this place so we were disappointed that the food was mediocre, to say the least. Duck confit was cold & the meat pie was so full of cloves that my husband couldn't tell what he was eating. Portions are large & we wasted a lot of food. Creme brulee saved the day. Expensive mistake. Won't recommend this place.
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.
Some will comment that this is more of a tourist attraction than a restaurant full of local families. While that it is probably true given the location, is is also a great place for delicious traditional Québécois fare. The décor is charming with many antiques & our dinner was delicious. While our dinner was great, dessert was a highlight with maple crème bulee & blueberry pie.
I would 100% recommend this place! We tried the red deer, bison, & elk meat, & it was delicious. We also had the traditional dish poutine, which is fries with gravy & cheese.
As a dessert we had a typical pie with maple syrup which was AMAZING
What really stood out was the kindness & attention of the staff at all times.
If you're visiting Quebec, you shouldn't miss it!
