Aux Anciens Canadiens est largement reconnu pour son atmosphère historique et charmante ainsi que pour son dévouement envers la cuisine traditionnelle québécoise, de nombreux visiteurs louant le cadre authentique au sein de l'un des plus vieux bâtiments de la ville. Les convives soulignent fréquemment le service attentionné et amical, particulièrement lors de la dégustation des menus du midi populaires, et beaucoup considèrent la tarte au sirop d'érable et les divers plats de viande comme des incontournables. Bien que la grande majorité des clients décrivent une expérience mémorable et délicieuse, certains critiques notent que la qualité des plats peut être inégale, quelques convives trouvant certains repas trop chers ou en deçà de la réputation historique de l'établissement.
Outstanding service, very friendly & accommodating, a real pleasure to be their guest. The three of us had the Table d'hote with different selections for appetizers & entrees, & it was phenomenal. Soup of the day was mushroom soup, probably the best I've ever tasted! The onion soup was equally delectable. I had the Quebec meat pie & meatball ragout, very tasty & the fruit ketchup was a nice complement. My wife had the chicken cordon bleu while our daughter had the duck poutine, all three dishes were amazing. A lovely evening out for us, such great hospitality & an experience to remember. Merci!
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!
Cute place, closed in & crowded with history. Great deals for the tourist looking for a full meal. We kept things simple with cocktails & soup. The split pea soup was great, the onion soup had a great broth but was a bit too much in the way of bread. The cocktails were a big fail. Stick to wine or water here.

So, we had heard so much about this restaurant as being a tradition Canadian food restaurant. The people were nice, friendly & accommodating but the food. The presentation was good but...... The chicken cordon bleu was so dry, even the sauce it was served with couldn't moisten it. The meatballs tasted like cardboard mixed with mystery meat. The meat pie was bland. Underwhelming meal. On the upside, the pea soup was good & so was dessert but how can you go wrong with maple syrup, cake & sugar.
Decor is super cute & lovely but food was not too impressive, but a good place to try "Quebec cuisine." Tried escargot, duck salad, French onion soup, maple syrup cake, chocolate pie, grandmas special(?) & more
Historic restaurant right near downtown historic Quebec. Got the lunch set menu for 40$. Came with beer or wine, an appetizer, a main plate, & a dessert. Many many options & some that have up charges so if you get those items you will come out above the 40$. I got beer, pea soup (to try the traditional soup), grandma's treat (meat pie, fruit ketchup, meatball ragout, & some veggies), & the maple pie. All were great & is a great deal for lunch menu. Did not leave hungry.
Awesome authentic French food!!! The $39.95 deal includes a glass of wine/beer, an appetizer, main dish, & dessert. Very affordable for a lot of food. The meat pie & beef bourguignon were excellent. The escargot & pea soup were also exceptional. The crème brûlée & blueberry pie were delicious & quite large portions. We recommend this place to anyone looking to try authentic French food for a great price.
If you are looking for a dinner that can give you a wide taste of local foods, this is a wonderful choice. We were looking for a place to eat at 4 after missing lunch. The restaurant we were considering was closed until 5, so we continued down the road & found that Aux Anciens Canadiens was not only open but still had the lunch prix fixe prices. It is possible the dinners are larger, but the lunch was more than enough for us. We shared our meals with each other & were able to try pea soup, smoked bison fondue, meat pie, meat ball ragout, & deer, bison & elk tenderloin with a lovely blueberry sauce. For dessert, we had maple syrup pie & maple bread pudding. Everything was very good & we felt like we had the perfect culinary review of classic Quebecoise foods. We could have chosen the poutine, but we were concerned that we were not going to make it to dessert & since the woman behind us was telling her friend that this place had the best maple syrup pie, we didn't want to risk it.
This restaurant is a must on your visit to Quebec City. What an excellent dining experience. This place is on all the recommended eating lists for a reason. We didn't have a single bad bite the entire dinner. The set menu has so much choice & is very reasonably priced for all that you get. Service was also amazing. We started with red wine which I actually enjoyed & I'm not a wine person at all, followed by apps, my partner ordered the beans, I had the escargot. Fresh, warm buns were brought out quickly each time we asked. Our soups were pea & french onion, both delicious. For our mains, I tried beef Wellington & he got the special of the night which was the turkey dinner. My beef Wellington had some kinda appley sauce that I wasn't sure about at first but everything paired so nicely together. It very much tasted like home cooking but in the best way. Very homey, full of comfort. For dessert we tried the bread pudding & maple creme brûlée. Some of the best creme brûlée ever! I will return on my next visit to the city. Can't say enough good things.
Super souper! Ambiance & décor très cozy, calme & authentique avec un super service. Produits de qualité & un beau choix de plats bien préparés & typiques de la cuisine québécoise sur la carte!
