A truly amazing breakfast experience!

My boyfriend & I loved the vintage atmosphere, every little detail of the restaurant matched, even the music played, as well as the server!

The food was also to die for. We ordered the cassolette déjeuner & the crêpes aux fruits des champs, which were both devoured pretty quickly.

Service was also extremely efficient. We got our food within a few minutes of ordering!

If you're looking for a vintage breakfast/diner place to go, this is an excellent recommendation.

We found this restaurant intriguing as it has a classic atmosphere. Breakfast was tasty. The first time we went on the weekend the wait staff were pleasant & friendly. The washroom needs a token.

This is the best restaurant in downtown Quebec City with some of the best food I've ever had. If you want to try authentic pizza & pasta, this is an absolute must-visit. The breakfast was outstanding - I enjoyed three meals here (breakfast, lunch, & dinner), & every single one was exceptional. The staff were warm, attentive, & truly made the experience memorable. This place definitely deserves a five-star review. A must-visit whenever you're in Quebec City!
