Located off the main road in a residential area. Great food & service. A hidden gem. Reasonable prices compared to restaurants located in the prime tourist areas. YMMV.

It's an unassuming little gem situated on a side street in old Quebec City. Great food, excellent service & reasonable pricing! A winning formula! We had escargot & octopus, salmon, crème brûlée … all so good! Check it out when you visit next!

What a cozy & inviting experience. This place feels like a hidden gem. (At least to us.). It was off the beaten path. We went for a late breakfast & ended up sampling a divine lunch that included duck & fisherman's pie. The attention & care along with the service made this a place we will definitely return to when we are return to Quebec City.

Such a hidden gem - just tucked away off the main street & absolutely worth it! This cozy little restaurant recently celebrated 50 years, & it's easy to see why it's stood the test of time. The menu is small, but everything is done perfectly. The service is so warm & unpretentious - we dined in with our toddler & baby & felt completely at ease. For dinner, we loved the French onion soup & fisherman's pie, & our toddler couldn't get enough of his grilled cheese. We came back for brunch & really enjoyed the homemade hot chocolate, croque madame, & classic egg benedict. Highly recommend!
