Review Summary

Charbon Steakhouse is widely recognized as a premier destination in Quebec City, frequently praised for its high-quality cuts of meat, including the filet mignon and Boston steak, which are often described as perfectly cooked and flavorful. Many guests highlight the elegant atmosphere within the historic train station setting and appreciate the warm, professional, and attentive service provided by the staff. While a majority of patrons report an exceptional dining experience and highly recommend the venue for special occasions, there are occasional inconsistencies regarding cooking temperatures, long wait times during busy periods, and mixed opinions on the value of certain side dishes.

Really enjoyed our evening in Charbon. Food & service were very good.
One star off because they do not have their own toilets, you have to leave the restaurant & use the ones in the station. A bit weird for a supposed high end steakhouse.

I don't often go to steakhouses or go all out in one at all but my partner & I decided to book this steakhouse in advanced as we've read & seen all the reviews about

We went on a Wednesday night & it was not busy at all I don't think booking was necessary for that time

As for the steaks, all their cuts are in such quality & cuts were thick we were left full even before dessert menu came around

As with any steak houses or fine dining joints; expect to spend at least 40-50 on the steak alone but rest assured the quality & cut of the steak justifies the price

The steakhouse experience was the one I had most looked forward to, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a major disappointment. We were surprised & frustrated to learn that they refused to accept AMEX, & to make matters worse, their payment terminal also rejected my debit card. I had to leave & go to the ATM to withdraw cash to make the payment. If a business chooses to be rigid about payment methods & doesn't accommodate overseas cards, the least they can do is inform customers at the time of booking. Had I known in advance, I would have gladly chosen another restaurant.
