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.

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!

My husband & I had dinner here & it was absolutely wonderful. The food was delicious. The onion soup - outstanding. The croque monsieur - the best I have ever eaten. Joe the manager was as kind as can be & Elias our waiter was not only friendly but right on top of everything. We heard it was under new management - can't go wrong with eating at Cafe Buade
