The duck risotto was one of the best meals I've had in my life. Service was great, no notes.

À deux pas des lieux touristiques, on a (l'espace d'un repas) l'impression d'être un voisin du quartier. Merci pour ce beau moment !

This place looked great & didn't disappoint. So much more than your fine dining restaurants this place offers a real atmosphere with well & skilfully cooked food that you rarely come across, all servers seemed genuinely happy to be there & there seemed a great camaraderie. Top recommendation for your stay in fascinating Quebec

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.

Wonderful little hole in the wall place about a block away from the tourist area . We walked by & it smelled delicious . We were not disappointed. Homemade cream of tomato soup & goat cheese salad with crusty focaccia bread hit the spot .

I had a wonderful experience at this cozy little spot. The ambiance is warm & inviting, with a charming mix of old-world character & relaxed comfort. The food was absolutely delicious - everything was fresh, flavorful, & clearly made with care. The service was friendly & attentive without being overbearing. It's the kind of place you could spend hours in, sipping coffee or enjoying a quiet meal. Highly recommended if you're looking for something authentic & welcoming in the area.

This place is off the main street of eateries but when we walked by the smell was of the food was so enticing we needed up after walking all over the city going back & it was well worth it. Homemade soup of the day was a tomato cream & it was delicious & hot we split the goat cheese salad between two of us & it was more than enough. Lovely setting feels like you are in a bistro in Paris & great service. Don't go to the tourists places when you can get a real authentic meal at Chez Temporal
