A small hidden gem in Quebec City. The place is very small with only 2 tables & a small bar. Two young gents behind the counter take your order, prepare the food, & hand it over to you.

I tried the hot chicken. It was not what I expected, but it was a great dish, not as spicy as I was expecting & not fried.

The burgers were great & very reasonably priced. The poutine is a must-try.

Highly recommend if you're in the area for a quick bite.

A small, cozy restaurant with a nostalgic vibe. The burger was really good & tasty, & I loved that it was grilled right in front of me with fresh ingredients. The goat cheese on top gave it a unique & delicious flavor. Another thing I appreciated, there was no bad smell of burned oil or food at all. Overall, a great experience, & I'll definitely come back to try other items on the menu. Highly recommended.

Delicious hand made'casse-croute' staples like poutine's, burgers, & hand made traditional fries. Poutines are next level, stacked with fresh local cheese curds, gravy, & your choice of toppings. The galvaude is a traditional version topped with roasted chicken breast & green peas. This one was perfect & packed with chicken & peas! Fantastic value, for Delicious scratch made food. Im having the Michigan dog next time!
