Joli restaurant, bien situé. Guedille au homard horrible, homard froid, pain dur, merci de ne pas me l'avoir fait payer. Fondue de camembert bon 8/10. Duo de pétoncles & crevettes 8/10 très bon.

Expérience extraordinaire, excellent service, bouffes diversifiées & excellentes. Vue imprenable sur le fleuve, Lévis, l'île d'Orléans & bien sûr les bateaux.

Quite like many places in the area, it's overpriced & underproportioned. We mainly went for the view, we were expecting the meal to be mediocre. Still, I was disappointed that my 28$ duck meal was 75% salad. My partner's brunch meal was also severely overpriced for how small the portions were. Who serves that kind of brunch for 25$? The baguette option he chose wasn't even a baguette. It was a small ciabatta. You can find better portions & better food quality for less, that's for sure. I will definitely not be coming back :) Update after their response: 28$ for 75% salad is still excessive, even if my pricing was incorrect. Seriously, look at my plate. Would you pay 28$ for that? My duck thigh is about the same size as the ciabatta lol. The brunch was still mediocre.

Food is not amazing. Coffee made freshly was really good (flat white) but the coffee they had from the pot was awful. The views are nice. Duck confit salad was tasty but Cafe du Monde breakfast wasnt

Excellent menu, les plats étaient délicieux. Notre serveuse était très compétente & d'une grande gentillesse mais de toute évidence débordée. Ça a un peu affecté notre expérience.

Repas excellent, très belle ambiance & vue magnifique sur le fleure & sur Levis. Je recommande l'entree de saumon fumée & le foie de veau. Experience très sympatique, environ 75$ incluant entree & dessert partagé avec 1 verre d'alcool.
