Cassis Monna & Filles functions as a dedicated hub for artisanal blackcurrant cultivation and production on the island. The facility showcases a sophisticated integration of a bistro and a curated market space highlighting the versatility of locally harvested berries. Visitors encounter an array of signature products including blackcurrant wines, spirits, and savory accompaniments designed for direct consumption. The onsite bistro emphasizes seasonal ingredients prepared to complement the distinct profile of their flagship estate produce. Expansive views of the river landscape provide a scenic backdrop for the dining experience while rows of vibrant berry bushes define the immediate surroundings. This operation maintains a rigorous commitment to agricultural tradition while facilitating direct access to its diverse inventory of fruit-based goods for those seeking authentic regional flavors in a functional, purpose-built environment.
Cassis Monna & Filles is widely regarded as a must-visit destination on Île d'Orléans, celebrated primarily for its stunning riverside views, relaxing atmosphere, and signature blackcurrant-based products. Many visitors highly praise the unique blackcurrant and vanilla soft-serve ice cream, as well as the variety of wines, liqueurs, and gourmet items available in the boutique. While the experience is often described as heavenly and a highlight of the region, reviews regarding the restaurant are mixed; some guests thoroughly enjoy the duck poutine and local cuisine, while others suggest the food quality and service consistency could be improved. Despite some concerns regarding wait times or menu variety, the vast outdoor seating area and the opportunity for guided tastings make it a favored spot for travelers to unwind and enjoy the scenery.
We had such a wonderful visit here & highly recommend stopping by if you're visiting Île d'Orléans! Everything made with black currants was delicious, & the black currant ice cream is an absolute must-try-it was amazing with the vanilla soft serve. We also had lunch & thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I really appreciated that there were several vegetarian options, & everything tasted fresh & homemade. The salad with the black currant vinaigrette was especially delicious. Before leaving, we couldn't resist taking home a bottle of crème de cassis & the black currant vinaigrette. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish, & this is definitely a place you shouldn't miss when exploring Île d'Orléans!
Visited this place coming from the Montmorency Falls experience. The location is great with beautiful viwes of the river. The service was pretty good as well from all the young people working there- kudos to that. The food quality wasn't, sorry to say. The duck poutine was overtaken by the gravy- the taste of the blackcurrant everywhere ruined the food-salads, sandwiches . Yes the desserts were good, the only place I did enjoy the fruit that is their main item in the island- but pls dont overdo it 🙏. Yes would come back but they need to work on the food quality.
Delicious lunch of bbq pork tacos & salad, with black currant ice cream for dessert. Black currants are prevalent throughout the menu & accompanying shop. The service was exemplary & the setting is a beautiful view of the island to river scenery. I would choose to return here again & again if we lived in Quebec.

The food is ok. Nothing extraordinary but the service is really good. The limonade with cassis barely taste the fruit. Kind of disappointed about that. The cheese sandwich taste good, but the salad meh. The ribs & the focaccia sandwich also good but once again nothing memorable about it. The view of the place is really nice, the service incredible & the vibe of the place really nice
Cassis Mona is a must in Quebec City. The sunset view over Île d'Orléans, the blackcurrant ice cream, the brie salad-everything is beautiful, everything is absolutely delicious.
Amazing service with a smile & detailed attention, asking a few times along the way if the meal was good & if we needed anything!
Probably the best poutine that my husband has ever had. Great sandwiches, very filling & flavorful, served with only a huge salad as I asked.
A perfect meal.
Lovely atmosphere, pet-friendly, which was great for our little fluff traveling with us.
The food was pretty good. However, it took more than 50 minutes to get our meal which is not bad if we were to order something extremely complicated, but I ordered a salad & my daughter ordered a grilled cheese sandwich. Others who came in after us, were served, had eaten & then left before our meals were served. I was not very happy with that.
Quel bel endroit, surtout le resto! Bel accueil dans ce joli resto où on a dégusté la renommée Sangria avec leur vin & liqueur de cassis, un délice!! Les repas étaient savoureux & délicieux & ils contiennent tous un soupçon de cassis que ce soit dans la sauce à poutine, la vinaigrette de la salade ou la saucisse du délicieux hot dog! La nourriture est excellente. Il y a également une crémière au rdc. Une grande boutique avec une grande variété de produits de cassis est ouverte au bas du bâtiment & on peut déguster des échantillons de presque tous les produits tels les gelées, sauce piquante, cassis recouverts de chocolat+
Amazing location with beautiful views. The food was delicious, I highly recommend the warm goat cheese salad & the cassis sangria. Don't forget to visit the little shop & roof top terasse.
