Fabulous dinner in an intimate setting. Menu was small & curated. Service was stellar; ingredients were fresh. Both traditional French dishes & innovative flavors were on the menu. So glad we found this gem as it is worlds apart from typical tourist fare.

We stayed at an AirBnB down the street & found this fantastic cafe! We ended up eating there 3 days in a row. I was traveling with my mom & my 2 kids (aged 13 & 10). All of us were big fans of different things! The service was wonderful! The owner is there from time to time but all of his staff are beyond welcoming. The atmosphere is perfect with open windows & exposed brick walls & stained glass- it's cozy. Highly recommend to anyone visiting or just looking for a hidden gem in their city.

What a delightful find & our top choice for dining during our weekend in Old Quebec! We had the pleasure of visiting twice, once for dinner & once for brunch, & sampled a total of 9 different items, all of which were delicious. Our favorites included the onion soup, squash soup, Caesar salad, & the remarkable key lime pie. Speaking of the key lime pie, it’s a hidden gem not featured on the menu & not available every day, but it’s a real treat, resembling crème brûlée with the perfect balance of sweetness.

Adding to the charm, the restaurant is nestled in an antique setting that provides a peaceful escape from the bustling main streets, avoiding the noise & crowds. The staff, while friendly, appeared to be a bit short-handed at times, resulting in occasional delays in service. Nevertheless, it was a great dining experience that we would highly recommend.

The Arctic Char & the Seafood Risotto were delicious as was the Crème Brûlée with sea buckthorns to balance the sweetness. Our server was personable, attentive, & helpful. A real gem.

This is a cozy gem of a place, half a block away from the busier streets. We were unlucky enough to be there on an evening when a chef had called in sick, so the main dishes on the menu were not available. Welcome to the world of small restaurants--& hence only four stars rather than five, since we didn't get back during our short stay & couldn't really sample the whole menu. But the onion soup was delicious, & the salad & open face sandwich we had were fine. The service was first rate & very friendly. We'd love to try them again sometime.
