Our dinner at Café Buade was absolutely memorable - the food was top notch from start to finish. The French onion soup was rich & deeply flavorful, easily one of the best we've ever had. The beef was incredibly tender & juicy, melting in the mouth with every bite. My salmon was cooked perfectly & seasoned just right. To finish, the apple pie paired beautifully with vanilla ice cream, a well-balanced & comforting dessert. On top of the outstanding food, the service was amazing - attentive, friendly, & made our first night in Québec truly special.

We went for our Christmas dinner & thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! All the staff were very friendly & the food was magnificent! For an appetizer, we had the tomato soup & the French onion soup; both were very tasty. We had the beef bourguignon & it melted in our mouths! Would definitely return!

After you have checked out various menus along the streets of Old Quebec, & can't decide. Make your way to Cafe Baude. You will not be disappointed. We ate there twice while visiting. The grilled ham & cheese & onion soup, where exceptional. The chicken club sandwich was cooked to perfectio. The French toast satisfied my morning crave for a balanced sweetness. My gal enjoyed the country omelet. All washed down with a delicious cup of coffee. All served by a very pleasant staff. Don't miss this piece of food paradise.
