This is a tourist trap. The food is very average & expensive for what it is. Probably just a place for the view but not for the food. The server was not friendly. There are far better places in the city than this one.

Nice location but super mediocre food & incredibly slow service. More than one hour to get out food on a Wednesday.

The food here was excellent & worth the price & they have a really good bar menu. The service was not the best & it was pretty obvious that some of the staff were racist & pretentious. We still had a great time but I wouldn't go back. The view of the river & the seafood menu is absolutely a reason to visit!

Wir haben es nur von außen gesehen, ziemlich besonders. Man sollte es sich anschauen.

This was a lovely café/ dining place on the St. Lawrence. Recommended by a friend while we stopped in Quebec City for the night before heading to Percé. Would definitely recommend a visit or more. The cocktails were great. The mocktails were also delicious. Stepped out to take some pictures of the huge ship's traversing up & down the St. Lawrence. All in all, great atmosphere, service & food!

Très bon repas entre amis. Le Boutin noir est excellent, le meilleur jamais manger. Guédille au homard très bonne ainsi que le fish & chip. Que dire du service de Rose T.
