Great French cuisine restaurant in Old Quebec city. We highly recommend the mussels, duck confit, foie Gras, & onion soup.

Amazing experience! Our favorite meal in Quebec City & during our whole trip in Canada! The French onion soup, mussels, & duck were some of the best we have ever had! The server was also incredibly nice. A meal we will never forget! Definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time.

Certaines soirées nous marquent… & celle passée au Bistro Saint-Malo en fera assurément partie.

Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis avec une chaleur & une authenticité rares. Philippe, véritable âme du restaurant, transmet sa passion dans chacun de ses plats. Sa cuisine est raffinée, généreuse & exécutée avec un souci du détail qui force l'admiration. À ses côtés, Emy est le coeur du Bistrot : sa bienveillance & son accueil créent une atmosphère où l'on se sent instantanément chez soi.

Un immense merci également à notre serveur, Daveon, qui a été aux petits soins tout au long de la soirée. Attentif, professionnel, sympathique & toujours présent au bon moment, il a grandement contribué à rendre cette expérience exceptionnelle.

Au-delà d'un repas absolument fabuleux, nous repartons avec des souvenirs précieux, le sourire aux lèvres & le sentiment d'avoir vécu bien plus qu'un simple souper. Nous avons partagé des moments mémorables & fait de magnifiques rencontres qui resteront gravées dans nos mémoires.

Merci à toute l'équipe du Bistro Saint-Malo de faire vivre ce genre d'endroit où la gastronomie, l'humanité & le plaisir de recevoir se rencontrent avec autant de justesse. Nous reviendrons, c'est une certitude.

Most everyone in my party got the steak frites, I got onion soup & beef cheek. Both were very good, but I think the onion soup is the standout

Nice spot, good service & interesting vibes. Food was good but maybe the menu & flavors aren't that appealing to our pallette & a bit pricey for what it is. French onion soup was a highlight

Excellent souper de Noël (La boîte Saint-Malo) : ragoût, dinde & pâté accompagné de petits légumes & betteraves roses, hummmmmmm! On a dégusté le tout en février (l'influenza a changé nos plans cette année, mais c'est pas grave). On recommande fortement, le chef est sympathique en plus !

Service & atmosphere was good, but food could be better done. Duck confit was dry & slightly overcooked, French onion soup tasted more like beef broth with added onions, lacked depth & richness. Beef cheek poutine was good.

Very luckily we walked in & BSM found us a table upstairs. Florence was exceptional in helping us make some fine choices from the menu. Delightful! Following a French 75 & Negroni, we ate Onion Soup, Beef Cheeks & the Seafood Bisque accompanied by Florence's'spot-on' wine recommendation. As a final treat we took the Tarte Tatin, amazing! What a find! Thank you Florence!
