Delicious & great service! We got complimentary tea the second we walked in! Highly recommend the cervette dish, came with warm bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

So delicious! Kind staff who made sure we understood the menu & took the time to explain things. Got the Shish Taok special combo- well seasoned perfectly crunchy potato wedges, a drink of choice, & a tasty, fresh chicken pita all for $13. It was fairly empty but not surprising for a Tuesday, which allowed us to take our time & talk comfortably. HIGHLY recommend especially for anyone who needs a break from the poutine & burgers in the surrounding area.

Beautiful restaurant with a charming Arabic atmosphere. The prices are reasonable & the food is very tasty! I suspect the kitchen forgot to add oil/vinegar/lemon to the Tunisian salad, would highly recommend for the full flavor!

We noticed this unassuming restaurant on our way back to our hotel. We are from NYC & we love to try different cuisines. We are pleasantly surprised how delicious the food is & how friendly the Lady who served us. We felt at home the moment we walked in & the food tasted like it's homemade. We regret to discover this gem on our last day in Old Quebec but had we found it a little earlier on our trip we would have frequented this place. We ordered the Shish Taouk (sp), Chicken couscous, Beef Pita & the soup & did not disappoint. All of it tasted authentic & savory. The fresh mint tea was perfect & refreshing even it was served hot. I feel bad that these kind of places do not get appreciated as much because there's not much of a foot traffic. I recommend this place for those who are looking for a great food & the price is not too bad at the same time. Highly recommended. ❤?❤?❤?

By far the best meal we had in Quebec City! So much so that we ate here 4 times in a 6 day trip! The staff/owners were kind & the atmosphere was beautiful. If you're in Quebec City I HIGHLY recommend visiting Carthage Express.
