Highly recommend their 24 hour beef bourguignon. Incredibly tender, the meat breaks apart easily & juicy. Definitely a must try!

Also had a tasty apple pie & pea soup. But, the beef stole the show!

By far the best tomato soup I ever had. Highly recommended with the grilled cheese sandwich. This is a good, wholesome food restaurant. Well portioned meals. Prices are very good. Joe & our server were very polite & welcoming. Great restaurant atmosphere too. If you want a fancy dining experience, go elsewhere. If you want good food, attentive staff, in a warm atmosphere, & at a fair price, this is your place.

My husband & I went in to Cafe Buade for our first Croque monsieur/madams while in Quebec City. They were amazing! & beside the food being great, the wait staff was outstanding. We were served by Joe & Caroline, who were so nice & even helped me a little with my rusty French. & Caroline had me laughing out loud! We ended up having a great time at lunch! I would highly recommend this restaurant!

Visited the restaurant for lunch on August 23rd with friends from California. Location is great - next ro Notre Dam Church in historic OLD Quebec. It's centrally located in the city walking distance from Fairmount Chateau Frontenac.
The service & food were excellent. Our waitress ANAHI was very professional & courteous. She advised us about the menu items what to choose based on our taste. The food included salad pasta & pizza. It was freshly made & cooked to perfection. Highly recommended for the ambience & good value for money. Dessert was Creme Bule to top off.
