Chez Temporel is a quaint little biatro with excellent service & dishes. While the variety is small, great care & attention goes into each dish. Reservations are highly recommended as we saw several people turned away due to all tables being reserved in advance. My wife is Celiac & the staff took great care to explain the gluten free options on the menu.
The owner also runs a small hostel next door & was on site all evening ensuring a well run establishment.
Definitely a repeat experience

Our favorite meal in Quebec - & we went to several
of the highest rated upscale restaurants. The Duck Confit salad was delicious, as were the Beef Bourguignon & Venison dishes. Prices were reasonable as well. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing meal here. The skirt steak was cooked to perfection & the daily soup was full of flavour. Every spoonful was a treat. Highly recommend going. Very good service & cozy atmosphere.
