About

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.

Nous avons passé une soirée fort agréable. Les procédures d'entrée se sont bien déroulées & l'organisation des tables était très appropriée. Nous avons reçu un excellent service en plus de se régaler de l'entrée au dessert! Comme première sortie au resto en zone orange, nous sommes comblés. Merci à toute l'équipe.

peu de couleur dans l'assiette principale donc moins appétissant, mon conjoint avait faim à la fin du repas. Dessert exquis & entrée savoureuse. Précisez le lieu de la collecte svo

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!

Déçue. Musique trop forte, atmosphère de taverne. J'ai bien mangé, sans plus. Le dessert de mon ami était quelconque. Je m'attendais à mieux. Désolée.

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.
