The atmosphere & service in the store are very good! The cyber stove on the second floor is very suitable for winter. The waiter is not only beautiful also give you very good meal suggestions. The most important thing is the quality of the food here! You only need to spend half the price of a French restaurant near the castle to enjoy three times the food. The seafood soup here highlights the flavor of the ingredients. The beef stew is tender & delicious & has the aroma of red wine. I would have been happier if the snails were garlic flavored, but the snails were handled well & not at all fishy. The service & quality here deserve a 20% tip!

Six stars service! We had a lovely dinner for Christmas Eve. All the staff is super friendly, the ambience is very cozy & intimate. The food was excellent , the menu had a variety of French dishes & everything we had was amazing. We ordered the veal risotto & the duck confit. To finish a crème brûlée. Highly recommend! Make your reservation with time.

Camille isba great server & helped us choose a wine that complimented both our choice.
Everything was overly rich but that's to expect from a classic french bistro.
Loved the evening & would gladly go back.
Seems to be a go-to for tourists but as locals we did not feel out of place.

Charm abounds here. Cozy (small) beamed rooms with a rustic cottage theme. Excellent service. Excellent food befitting a French coastal town. Yet another lovely Quebec establishment in the Vieux Port.

Great atmosphere, amazing for a cozy dinner date! We had an excellent server who was very friendly, attentive, & helped us with the French to English translations on the menu. I got the beef cheek & was beyond impressed. I was also very happy with the recommended wine! Would come here again when I am back in Quebec City!

Lovely place with warm, welcoming service. My husband ordered the special: all-you-can-eat mussels & it didn't disappoint. Plus, the French fries that accompanied them were amazing—hot & fresh, perfectly salted & crunchy. I had the seafood bisque & it was perfectly seasoned, not too heavy, with plenty of fresh, delicious seafood. Our server was charming & attentive, & the food was fresh & flavorful. I highly recommend!
