Lors de mes passages à Québec, je venais visiter ce restaurant & je l'ai recommandé à de nombreuses personnes au fil des trois dernières décennies. Malheureusement, le repas d'hier soir n'était pas à la hauteur. L'emplacement & le décor sont toujours superbes, mais la nourriture ne semble plus aussi authentique ni particulièrement goûteuse.

During my visits to Québec City, I used to come to this restaurant & recommended it to many people over the past three decades. Unfortunately, last night's meal didn't measure up. The location & décor are still wonderful, but the food no longer feels as authentic or particularly flavourful.

A beautiful introduction to some tradition Québécois dishes in the oldest building in Québec City. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed this restaurant in the heart of Old Quebec! The food was absolutely amazing! We tried two soups, split pea & the chef's soup, both delicious! We devoured them immediately, so no pictures, sadly. We shared the grandma's plate with meat pie & a variety of sides, everything was so full of flavor & incredibly delicious! For dessert, we had thr Maple Syrup Pie & the Maple Syrup Bread Pudding, amazingly packed with flavor!
Our server was very attentive, cheerful & ready to fill our water glasses each time he stopped at the table. We felt very spoiled by his friendly attention.
The atmosphere is extremely charming, combining old & modern features & decor. & don't miss the bathrooms! A cute little closet with unique features!
Highly recommended this spot, its the oldest French building in Quebec & offers amazing food & service!

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.

Will not recommend. Highly overrated. The food had no flavor whatsoever. Our tour guide recommended it, but visiting the restaurant was a mistake never to be repeated. Staff was quite rude too. Please go somewhere else while in Quebec. There are other options.
