About us

With their rigorous climate marked by a distinct seasonal cycle, northern territories are gifted with unique fauna and flora adapted to their extreme reality: game, fresh water fish, wild fruit, forest mushrooms, lichen… inspired by these unique elements, a rising number of chefs are exploring this once neglected exceptional culinary legacy.

In Quebec, Jean-Luc Boulay and Arnaud Marchand, supported by a passionate team, have been standing up to the challenge of inventing quebec inspired northern cuisine since 2012. Connecting the abundant proximity of boreal forests and the exceptional quality of local products, they salvage amidst french techniques to favour a true encounter of flavours. Local, healthy and inventive, the Northern cuisine from Quebec expresses within each bite the very best of our emerging culinary tradition.

In a prime location in old Quebec City, Chez Boulay lived up to the reviews. We sat at the Bar & were served & engaged by Alex who guided us through our culinary journey. The scallop ceviche & Veal tartare to start they were perfect in taste form & texture. The cheek of the evening was beef & was it amazing. Served on sweet potatoes & a caramelized onion, this melt in your mouth creation was perfect. Thanks again to Alex for adding to our already wonderful evening.

Delicious, reasonably priced for the wonderful quality of the food. One of the best brunch places I have been to. I had the beef with the poutine & it tasted wonderful. The pancakes were amazing & I was able to request a child sized one for dessert which was exactly what I wanted!

The service was professional but friendly. We appreciated the recommendations from our server for selections of food & drinks. There is a great selection of local food (north as the name Bistro Nordique implies) & wine. We had monteregie pear cider comme apéritif, pinot noir from germany, & liqueur d'amelanchier. Our appetizers were amazing (halibut ceviche, ancestral tomatoes) Beef jowl & scallop our main were great follow up to our appetizers. Dessert was the cherry on the top of our meal. It was the Forest, a chocolate ganache with forest ingredients. Great dining experience. Highly recommend.

Great food!! Staff wasn't very welcoming, when asked to sit outside, the man simply told me "We are probably full you can go check for yourself." Although our server was bubbly & informative. I recommend the beef cheek!

The service was fantastic; the server made us feel
at home, answered all of our questions with a smile & did not chase us out when we were the last ones left. Greatly appreciated.
As for the food, my friends who ordered the beef & the halibut were extremely satisfied, but my friend who ordered the gnocchi-like pasta was a little disappointed (too gummy). I ordered the chicken breast. It was a little bland & I would've preferred more veggies on my plate rather than orzo. On the contrary, for $5 extra, people should order the goat cheese-brioche-honey appetizer. Delicious!
I must also admit that what turned me off the second I walked in the door was the overwhelming fishy odour everywhere in the restaurant.

Beef is really tender & the dessert (pastry & creme brûlée) is pretty good, well balanced between sweet & sour.
