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!

The restaurant was recently bought & re-opened. We went for dinner & ordered -
Mediterranean pizza, Grilled Chicken Lemon dish, Chicken Pesto pizza & some soups as appetizers.
Everything we ate was good. Loved the ambience, vibe & the hospitality at the restaurant.
We did not have a reservation but the manager, Joe was very kind & accomodated in just a few minutes. The server, Anahi was very lovely & prompt.
We give a 4.5/5 to the reataurant.
We will come back for sure.

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.

Nouvelle administration & vraiment pas déçue. J'ai pour habitude d'y manger les pâtes aux fruits de mer. Résultat, beaucoup plus de fruits de mer qu'il n'y en avait pas auparavant, ce qui a rendu mon mets plus goûteux encore.
Des serveurs & serveuses dédiés à leurs clients (le mien, Gabriel il s'appelle, ne le perdez pas, il aime & travaille très bien son métier)

De plus, j'apprécie énormément cette arrivée de serviettes en tissu. Une touche d'élégance & d'efficacité dans un matériel plus que bienvenu pour les clients. Bravo!

C'est certain que je vais y retourner souvent & faire la recommandation à mon entourage.
