Group of 4, 2 said 5/5 for food (breakfast poutine & ratatouille), one said 2/5(fish n chips) & my pea soup was 4/5. Staff friendly, service excellent (water refilled quickly, dirty dishes cleared quickly, no pressure to leave). Cool breeze & in shade on a hot day. Was a gem to find in old Quebec. It was busy so gave us an indication it was a great place. Lived up to it.
After reading reviews, I decided for the best onion soup you may ever have: an abundant amount of goodness. The lunch menu has an upgrade option with soup & coffee. So, the meat pie was the king of this castle. The simple side of vegetables was elegant, had a family-kind of cooking, like if a grandma is making sure you eat delicious greens happily. The staff, did I just meet them? Such a friendly crew!! & their regulars were instant friends, & make sure you are a neighbor. I went for lunch, off peak hours on a lazy afternoon. I know it gets busy, so plan your visit.
Really great breakfast. Busy on the weekends (ex. Line up for 15-20 mins)
Worth the wait.
No longer a hidden gem because so busy, but everything is amazing in this place.

After reading the glowing reviews about this restaurant, we stopped by for breakfast during our trip to Quebec City.
I was wildly excited about their eggs Benedict, but I couldn't have been more disappointed. Everything was completely flavorless. No seasoning, no lemon, & the hash brown potatoes were barely cooked.
On top of that, the service was disappointingly slow. At busy restaurants, I would normally give a wide berth. But in this case, you could see the servers just standing around talking. There was no sense of urgency. This is one breakfast spot I will not return to. Highly recommend looking for something else.
The food was really good, just not'great' but I will definitely return to try other menu items. The staff were friendly & the service was very good. I must have arrived at a good time because it wasn't very busy (also less people in the area in winter, I guess).
I'll be back for sure next time I'm in Québec.
They are busy & popular for a reason. Food is really, really good. I was in Québec city for 2 days & went twice. The service is impeccable even with a full place. Highly recommend!!
We had the l'assiette brunch & la cochonne for breakfast. Both were great but the cochonne was even better. I reccomend giving it a try. It's really a breakfast poutine, but its well balanced & not too filling for breakfast as you think it may be. Coffee comes with free refills. Service was very good considering it was quite busy when we were there.
