Première expérience pour nous. WOW! Tout était excellent, le service comme la nourriture. Soupe à l'oignon sublime en entrée & joue de boeuf savoureuse ainsi qu'une casserole de la mer généreuse en plats de résistance. Nous y retournerons c'est certain'

We were to be in Quebec City just two nights & had done our research & decided we wanted authentic French cuisine & picked St-Malo after reading the great reviews. As the only available table inside was right at the back near the kitchen & bar., we took a little table in front where we enjoyed watching the world go by.

The staff bent over backwards to make us happy. I'm a scotch drinker & the chef offered me a shot of his very own personal 12 year old single malt scotch whisky. It was delicious. This was a great start to an excellent dinner. My wife loves onion soup & was not disappointed, calling it the best she'd had (& I make a pretty fine onion soup!). She followed that with Mussels Marina, which she said were perfect. I had the octopus salad to start which was delicious. Their on-line menu offers a Cassoulet which I was looking forward to as I can't find a good one in Toronto, but I learned that this was only offered in the winter (I wish they would update their on-line menu to current offerings). The server suggested the beed cheek & I enjoyed. Many of the wines on their wine list are not currently available since covid but the server brought us a couple of other tasters to try that were not on the wine list & we settled on a delicious California Cabernet Sauvignon.

My wife & I have eaten in many fine dining restaurants over the decades but now we prefer friendly little bistros with good authentic food & this is what you get at Bistro St-Malo. Excellent food & service that won't break your wallet.

Bonne bouffe, bel ambiance & très bon service. Des plats variés & qu'on ne se fait pas souvent à la maison donc qui donne un plus. On adore essayé du nouveau. Le boudin, le ris de veau, le poisson du jour que dire de la soupe à l'oignon. S'était parfait!
