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.

Service impeccable, plats succulents. Nous avons particulièrement aimé la panacotta au raifort & le toast de champignons/coeurs de canards en entrées, & tous les plats choisis en plats principaux, que ce soit le flétan, la caille, la joue de boeuf ou le pétoncle. Merci pour cette belle soirée!

Excellent service: sympathique & chaleureux. Excellente soupe à l'oignon , les pétoncles ainsi que la joue de boeuf représentait un petit défi pour le choix du vin qui nous a été conseillé avec brio.
Bref, une belle soirée dans un bistro qui a du goût!

Toujours épique comme expérience ! La joue de boeuf, un incontournable! Saveur, service, expérience culinaire... tout est 5 étoiles. Chez nous, lorsque l'on désire se gâter ou que nous avons quelque chose à fêter, c'est désormais chez Boulay que nous allons!

Excellent restaurant: foie gras, soupe choux-fleurs, assiette de la mer extra, petit bémol sur la joue de boeuf qui avait une texture bizarre mais à refaire sans hésiter!

Très belle ambiance, serveur très sympathique, excellente description des plats proposés. Cependant, j'ai été deçue de la cuisson de la joue de boeuf, selon moi, la cuisson était insiffisante. Le couteau était nécessaire pour couper la viande, ce qui n'avait pas été le cas lors de ma dernière visite.

Excellent service, chaleureux & rigolo de notre serveur Florent. Même s'il s'occupait de plusieurs tables, on sentait que chacune d'elles était sa priorité. La joue & la bavette de bison étaient exquises!
