The best place we ate on our trip, & it wasn't close. The salmon & the risotto with duck confit were both some of the most fantastic dishes I've had in recent memory.

First time visiting Quebec City & this was the best meal that we've had on our trip. The Shrimp Roll was fantastic & my wife loved the Mushroom Risotto. I would definitely come here again during our next visit.

Very friendly service, a cozy & casual atmosphere, & delicious dishes with an original mix of ingredients. However, I was disappointed to see a discrepancy in the final price of the duck risotto. On the menu, it was listed as $29 plus $15 (total $44), but I was charged $45 on the bill. Even if the difference is just $1, the prices charged should always match what is displayed on the menu. Transparency & accuracy in billing are very important for customer trust.

We chose this place after the first two places we tried were booked. THANK GOODNESS! We shared the Escargot Au Gratin. It was great. My wife had the shrimp & lobster roll. I had the mushroom risotto. We loved all of it. The atmosphere was cozy. The service was excellent. Can't say enough good things

Gorgeous little cafe/restaurant in a quiet side street in the old part of the city. I had their mushroom risotto & it was flavourful & delicious. I would return to try more on their menu.
