The only thing we were upset about was they were out of the gnocchi. This was a beautiful place off the busy streets & was the best meal we have had in multiple visits to Quebec City.

Brilliant food & service - ambiance only hindered by it being a quiet night, not the restaurant's fault :)

A cosy little restaurant with an interesting menu. The seared fois gras was outstanding & so well presented that I had to take a photo. For our main meals, my husband had the beef cheek & I had the octopus. Both had amazing flavours, & the crème brûlée rounded off a perfect dinner. For 3 courses plus a bottle of red wine cost around $350, including the tip, but it was worth it. Friendly service too.
