I had heard a lot about this place. I was looking forward to the steak tartare, but no sooner did I sit down, I was informed that this was off the menu. The menu is limited & not much else appealed to me, so I had the escargots, which were quite good. The bistro is a cozy nook & the maître d & waitress were very courteous.

This is a gem of a restaurant in Quebec City, just outside the tourist zone. The food was fantastic & the service pitch perfect. Even the sound track was spot-on. We will definitely be back.

The foie gras was incredibly creative & a pleasant surprise. I never would have imagined pairing foie gras with apple, but it worked beautifully. The foie gras was silky smooth & melted in my mouth, while the apple added just the right amount of freshness to cut through the richness.

The beef tartare was seasoned with a blend of ingredients I couldn't identify, creating a unique, well-balanced flavor that was both complex & delicious.

The duck confit risotto was rich with stock, creamy, & packed with savory flavor.

I really loved the soup of the day, Gazpacho. It was delicious. & my friend had the risotto while I had this croissant with shrimp & a delicious side salad. We ordered local Canadian red wine. & for dessert, we split a piece of maple syrup pie. It was so good. Try this restaurant. You'll love it.
