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.

We were walking thru Old Town Quebec late evening yesterday looking for a place for the four of us to have dinner. We were not looking for fancy high end dining that comes in at $100 per person. We just wanted good food & service after a very long day of site seeing.

We came across Cafe Buade, looked at the menu on the wall outside & all agreed it looked great! We walked in & asked if it was too late to be seated for dinner (we were uncertain of the hours & would never walk in for dinner if a restaurant was closing in a half hour or so). They told us we were fine & they'd be happy to seat us.

We were blown away throughout our dining experience! My apologies for no pictures, but among the four of us we ordered Escargot, a Garden Salad, two different Pasta Dishes, Pea Soup, a Cheeseburger, Crème Brûlée, Cheesecake & Queen Elizabeth Cake along with drinks & coffees at the end with dessert. Each & every dish was absolutely delicious! The pasta sauce on my dish was amazing. In fact we liked the food here so much we're going back for lunch tomorrow during our final pass through old town.

I would be remiss if I didn't include the high level of service we received from the waitress, Stephanie. She was extremely attentive while not being'too much'. She was pleasant, welcoming & funny & gave zero indication of the time getting late when we ordered dessert. The delivery of our courses was spot on & she truly helped make the perfect end to a great day.

If you think this review is too good to be authentic you are way off base. We dine out at a lot of different places in our travels & I have written many reviews both good & not so good. Though human nature has it that we are quicker to write a bad review than a good one, I have always believed if a restaurant truly stands out they deserve the recognition for it. Cafe Buade stands out. Go there & you'll find out for yourself.

What an excellent meal! We stopped by for dinner late, around 8, because of their beer & poutine deal. They seated us right away. We ordered the beer & poutine (only $15!) & also a garden salad & burger. Everything was excellent! The poutine was very fresh & flavorful. The cheese curds squeaked, as they should. The salad, too, was very fresh & had these amazing marinated tomatoes on top. The burger was perfectly cooked & juicy. The prices were the most reasonable that we encountered in Quebec, & the service was friendly & attentive.

Absolutely delicious food & 5 star service. Nicest staff & the chef even came out to check on us & how we liked the food. An total hidden gem in old Quebec city & a must. Ordered the duck wings, escargo (snails) & both were a hi. The cheeses they use are for those who appreciate deep flavors
