Quel petit restaurant sympathique! Belle découverte. Atmosphère détendue, nourriture excellente & service impeccable.Peut-être le seul petit bémol est la musique un peu trop forte à mon goût .Je le recommande fortement.

Flavour city! This place is a must check out in Quebec city! Everything we got was packed with umami flavour; insanely delicious! 🤤 We booked a reservation for 6pm on Friday & the place filled up quite quickly so it is advisable to book a reservation to make sure you get a seat. There were some walk ins though & they were able to dine but always good to be safe!

To start we got a French onion soup 🧅🧀 & an order of escargots 🧀🐌. The French onion soup was cheesy & delicious, lots of chopped cooked onions & a ton of cheese! The escargots were buttery smooth & cooked perfectly with a layer of cheese to top the entire dish! 🧀🐌 Delicious starters to your meal if you are interested to try

For the mains, the first order we got an order of the Beef Cheek with vegetables cooked in duck fat 🐄🦆🥕🥔! This main is incredible it is packed with umami, savory saltiness & sweetness from the carrots. The beef cheeks were so incredibly soft you could eat everything with a spoon! I would 100% recommend getting this dish to try you will not be disappointed! We loved the flavour so much we asked if we could take the leftover sauce to go so that we could eat it with dipped bread! 🍞🥖

The second order we got was the Rabbit Rissoto 🐰, this dish was very tender & cooked perfectly. The rabbit leg was tender & moist on the inside & the risotto was cooked perfectly. Cooked with some zucchini & herbs so that you can get some greens! If you are feeling some Rissoto this is the dish for you! On a side note I do find that rabbit tastes like chicken 🐔🐰for those of you who haven't had rabbit before

The last main we got was the Cassoulet which is a Duck Confit & sausage stew, cooked for 10 hours 🦆! So delicious, as people probably know duck confit is a very popular dish with the French & this one was again very delicious. The duck was moist & tender like all the other dishes everything was cooked with beans in the stew. The flavours meshed together extremely well giving you an all around perfect flavour profile 🦆

For dessert we got the tarte tartin which is like a baked apple turnover drizzled with maple syrup & a scoop of vanilla ice cream 🍎🍦! Very delicious & a great way to end the meal! Luckily we parked about 15 minutes away so that helped us digest everything!

All in all, great customer service, amazingly cooked food & a very vibrant atmosphere for dinner! Great place for a date or even a small family meal. They offer seating outside aswell & there is an upper level with additional seating
