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.

We had the stuffed chicken & flat iron steak, both were superb! & the wine was very good as well. Will definitely recommend Chez Boulay to anyone looking for amazing food in Quebec City.

Le restaurant au menu Boréal, niché au coeur d'un quartier historique pittoresque du vieux Québec, est une véritable perle rare. Dès que l'on franchit le seuil de cet établissement, on est transporté dans un univers où chaque détail est soigneusement pensé pour éveiller les sens. La cuisine fine, d'inspiration boréale, est un véritable voyage culinaire. Les plats, alliant tradition & innovation, sont une ode à la nature & aux saveurs du terroir, tout en offrant une expérience gustative raffinée & unique. Chaque bouchée est un véritable enchantement, avec des textures sublimes & des associations de saveurs étonnantes.

Mais ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus mémorable, c'est sans doute le service exceptionnel. Mylène, la serveuse, incarne la perfection en matière d'accueil. Son sourire chaleureux & son professionnalisme créent une atmosphère accueillante & intime, rendant chaque moment passé dans ce restaurant encore plus agréable. Elle connaît parfaitement le menu & n'hésite pas à conseiller des accords mets-vins avec une grande expertise.

L'endroit, avec son charme historique & son ambiance à la fois chic & décontractée, est l'endroit idéal pour un dîner inoubliable. Ce restaurant ne se contente pas de satisfaire vos papilles, il vous fait vivre une véritable expérience sensorielle, & avec le service impeccable de Mylène, il est impossible de ne pas y revenir. Il faut absolument essayer la soupe à l'oignon ainsi que la joue de boeuf même s'il fait +38°C à l'extérieur! Un lieu à recommander sans hésitation!

The pork appetizer was outstanding & changed my life. The entrees, however, did not. I ordered the famed beef cheek & found it to be rather plain & uninspired, kind of like a tough, underseasoned pot roast. The duck entree was probably the best, though still kind of lacking in a way I can't describe. Service was outstanding, as was the atmosphere. We had a great time but it's not a place I'd recommend for the price.
