We booked this French restaurant for Christmas Eve, being informed of a set menu via phone call the day of our booking. The soups were served cold, with small (think several tablespoon) portion sizes that were inconsistent across the table. The duck foie gras arrived on cold, burnt toast, & the ravioli-a mere three lukewarm pieces per person-were undercooked & lacked flavor. Dessert was largely uninspired with just a small slice of cake topped with popcorn. For the premium price charged, the menu felt lazy & poorly thought out. The service also left a lot to be desired; despite informing the restaurant during booking that we would be dining with a one-year-old, the waitress rolled her eyes on arrival & provided only an adult chair, leaving us to again request a booster seat. The entire meal felt rushed & concluded in under an hour, providing us with a largely underwhelming experience for the price charged.
Such a hidden gem - just tucked away off the main street & absolutely worth it! This cozy little restaurant recently celebrated 50 years, & it's easy to see why it's stood the test of time. The menu is small, but everything is done perfectly. The service is so warm & unpretentious - we dined in with our toddler & baby & felt completely at ease. For dinner, we loved the French onion soup & fisherman's pie, & our toddler couldn't get enough of his grilled cheese. We came back for brunch & really enjoyed the homemade hot chocolate, croque madame, & classic egg benedict. Highly recommend!
We decided to go to Quebec City for Christmas Eve last minute & this is the only restaurant that has Christmas dinner available. I saw many good reviews so I made the booking. We were surprised to know there was only one menu for Christmas of $80 a person with a cold cauliflower soup (tastes like gasoline so we didn't finish), one tiny fois gras, 3 tortellini - as main dish! & a dessert. We had to order ramen after dinner because that's not enough for half a person & food didn't taste so great. Such a rip off. I believe their regular menu is better & more reasonable, too bad we went there for Christmas Eve dinner.
On my week long vacation here in Quebec City, I have had the pleasure of eating at some really great restaurants, however this was by far the best! The owner & the staff along with his sister who waited on us, made sure we were well taken care of. The food was excellent & the atmosphere was perfectly cozy on a cold winter day. We had a late lunch & will be coming back for brunch on our last day out. This is the sort of place that you will want to come back to time & time again.
We had the Christmas 4 course dinner & it was amazing. I am a little confused by the previous reviews especially regarding the service. They had our food out quick & were constantly refilling our waters. It felt very cozy in the restaurant. Considering it was a 4 course meal they usually come out in smaller portions but it was plenty of food. My favorite part was the soup, it was very flavorful. The dessert part of the 4 course menu was okay but ultimately this was a great experience all around. I think maybe some were not prepared for the Christmas day 4 course meal only option.
FANTASTIC MEAL!! I hardly ever write reviews but this place was amazing!!! It's a hidden gem with excellent food, great staff, & cozy vibe. I had the mushroom risotto with duck confit & it is probably one of the best meals I've ever had!! Do not miss this if you are in Québec City!!!!
