Deuxième visite. Nous y sommes venus en famille avec deux enfants pour le brunch. Tout était excellent! Le service très attentionné. Nous avons adoré notre expérience & nous recommandons fortement à quiconque souhaite découvrir une adresse digne des plus grandes tables de la capitale. Prix raisonnable & excellent rapport qualité-prix.

A true gem! This was our third year in a row we've returned (coming all the way from Montreal). Everything is wonderful. The service is outstanding & make you feel at home. The food is creative, innovative, but approachable. I recommend the blind tasting - such an adventure!

On nous avait recommandé l'endroit, mais nos attentes ont été surpassées. Tous les plats étaient fins, des amalgames complexes mais très harmonieux, un vrai délice. Le service assuré par Jade était avenant, chaleureux & fort sympathique. & les lieux sont remplis d'histoire. Une très belle découverte que nous recommandons sans équivoque. Merci, on reviendra.
Catherine & Jean-Francois.

Lovely meal experience at Chez Rioux & Pettigrew. We chose the chef's tasting menu which included 4 diverse, delicious courses, & a wine pairing. The staff was knowledgable, enthusiastic, & bilingual in French & English, which really helped as they explained each course. Pricing felt quite reasonable as well. We loved the ambiance & the way they honoured the heritage of the building/restaurant. Would not hesitate to recommend or return.

My wife & I often spend a few weekends each year in Québec City, & on this trip we decided to try Chez Rioux based on several recommendations. Since it's Michelin?recommended, we were excited to experience what it had to offer.

We were seated at 5:50 PM & ordered the 4-course tasting menu with wine pairing as suggested by our server as we were first time guests. The whole experience lasted 3 hours. During that time, we watched multiple tables of 4-6 diners who arrived later finish their meals & leave.

Unfortunately, while each dish was good & paired well with the wines they chose, for a bill of over $450 for two people none stood out as particularly memorable or worth returning for, & we both felt the à la carte options looked more appealing than what we received. We left feeling underwhelmed & still hungry.

The atmosphere is cozy & charming, Unfortunately, the service didn't match the ambiance. We waited more than 20-30 minutes or more between each course. Although our servers were friendly, their explanations were difficult to follow.

Overall, while Chez Rioux may appeal to diners who enjoy this particular style of tasting menu, we didn't feel the experience justified the cost. Aside from the décor, the evening was disappointing, especially at this price point.

Nous avons adoré notre soirée! Nous avons pris le menu découverte & nous sommes tombés sous le charme. Les accords mets-vins étaient exquis & le service était excellent. J'ai plusieurs allergies (noix, sésame, arachides) & l'équipe m'a mis en confiance en me proposant des plats délicieux & comparables aux plats réguliers.
Je recommande!

Une soirée magnifique hier! Je donnerais une pluie d'étoiles à toute l'équipe. Dès notre arrivée, l'accueil est tellement chaleureux. Benjamin, notre serveur, était exemplaire, passionné & attentionné. L'ambiance est parfaite aussi bien pour les couples que les groupes. Nous avons choisi le menu dégustation 4 services avec accord mets & vins, quelle expérience fantastique. Je suis toujours un peu craintive à choisir cette formule mais j'étais conquise dès le premier service. Nous avons savouré le ceviche de crevettes, une version asiatique de tartare de saumon, le plat de cerf & le dessert ganache chocolat-chantilly-meringue. Chaque plat se traduisait par des explosions de saveurs. Présentation élégante & raffinée. Le mariage avec les vins était parfait. Nous avons absolument tout apprécié de notre visite. Nous recommandons vivement. Nous avons déjà hâte d'y retourner!

This is a very unique dining experience in an absolutely beautiful, warm & cozy environment. We were welcomed by cheerful staff & seated at our requested bar seats. The bartender made excellent recommendations to both my husband & me based on our preferred pre dinner drinks , a local rye for my husband & a popular cocktail, the Vesper, with a personal touch for me!!! Both were hits! We opted for the surprise menu ( two starters, a main course & pleaser). Accommodations were made for allergies & we loved the creativity of each dish & the power packed flavor !!! We left feeling satiated but not stuffed & recommend this place to all who enjoy & adventurous dining experience. Bravo!!!

L'ambiance & le menu étaient spectaculaires! Par contre, l'un des serveurs manquait un peu de finesse & nous nous sommes sentis pressés de finir notre soirée. Je recommende mais faudra affiner le service.
