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.

Excellente nourriture & service impeccable. J'ai de nombreuses intolérances alimentaires & les chefs me préparent toujours des mets savoureux qui ne me rendent jamais malade.

Bon restaurant mais très mauvaise planification. On a droit a 2H15 de présence au resto mais avec l'attente à la porte, les consignes COVID, les consignes du resto ,etc , il reste environ 90 minutes. & on ne le vous rappelles pas.
Donc, ne faites pas comme nous. Sauter l'apéro & les entrées, commandez tout de go le plat principal si jamais vous voulez un dessert ou un café.
Ce devait être notre meilleur repas à Québec mais ça a été le pire du à la précipitation de fin de repas.
Pour un repas de 300 $ à deux, ce ne sera pas a qualité qui le rendra mémorable.

Every time we come to Chez Boulay we are consistently surprised. The restaurant is always so clean & bustling with happy customers. The vibe is classy yet fun & the food never disappoints! The host & our server were both so kind & accommodating to our lack of French language & provided us with assistance on their app as well as providing us with English menu's. We love this restaurant & highly recommend it to all!

Service incroyable, attentionné & rapide! L'ambiance était également au rendez-vous!

Quant aux plats, quelques déceptions. Nous avions entendu parlé en bien du restaurant, mais nous avons trouvé les plats bons, mais sans plus.
