Review Summary

Ciel! Bistro-bar is widely celebrated as an essential destination in Quebec City, primarily for its unique revolving floor that offers breathtaking, panoramic views of the city, the river, and the mountains. While some guests found certain dishes average or portions small, the vast majority praise the high-quality, creative cuisine and the professional, attentive, and friendly service that often adds special touches for celebrations. Although occasional reports of long wait times or temperature inconsistencies arise, most visitors find the overall experience, atmosphere, and spectacular vantage point well worth the price, making it a highly recommended spot for memorable gatherings and special occasions.

This was a fantastic experience through & through- from the server, to the food, to the view. However, I'd like to talk mainly about the food.

To start, I ordered the soup dujour, which was a potato-cream. It was warming & perfectly creamy, with just a hint of spice. My boyfriend & I shared the cerviche, which was full of very refreshing flavours. For the main course, I got the lamb, while my boyfriend got the Spanish octopus. The lamb was cooked perfectly! There's was no game-y or unwanted lamb flavours, just succulent juicy meat in a delicious sauce. The octopus was bursting with flavour as well! For dessert, I got the creme brulee-- it was a cornucopia of flavours! I couldn't even figure out what I was tasting at first, but I think I figured it out; they must put coconut milk or something as their secret ingredient.

Anyway, I would highly recommend this restaurant for your next date night. A fantastic restaurant in the heart of Old Quebec City!

Superbe expérience pour le brunch. J'ai pris la brioche perdue & mon conjoint le sandwich oh ciel. De bonnes portions & que dire de la bouché dessert. J'en aurais pris une boîte !
