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.

Beautiful views of Quebec City. Friendly & attentive helpful staff. Duck was recommended & 5 stars, many other items 5 stars. Vegetarian Roasted Cauliflower dish 3 stars. Not very flavorful & not hot. We expected more flavor & sear. The dish has potential but needs work. Canadian cheese platter was amazing. Bread was hot, crispy & tasty. The cauliflower soup was to die for & the artic char delicious!

What can I say but WOW! Everything about our anniversary supper was fantastic. Great staff, really excellent service & amazing food. Really just a beautiful experience. I had the roasted arctic char as an entree & my main was the halibut...sooooo delicious. Hubby had chef choice of entree which was a pork & main was a beautiful steak with lemon tarragon sauce. Delicious! & they surprised us with a sparkler dessert for our anniversary. I highly recommend this beautiful place to spend a wonderful evening. Thanks for a memorable evening.

Getting in if you haven't been before can be a little difficult to understand. It's located in the first hotel from the left at the very top floor via elevator. Found parking on the street, but I can see how it'd be difficult to find on this busy street. Few cars are constantly in/out & staying idle in front of the entrance of the hotel. Somewhat of a limited menu, but the chicken dish was good & the drinks were strong. Nice view of the city, though the windows can be a little dirty. Overall, would recommend if visiting in the city on a date night just for the view alone.

J'ai vraiment ADORÉ mon expérience à ce restaurant, & ma nièce de 11 ans avec qui j'étais aussi! Nous y sommes même allées 2 fois dans la même journée, car nous avions été conquises au diner! Donc nous y sommes retournés pour souper! Ceci dit, nous avons préféré le menu du midi que du soir. & pour la vue, ce sont deux ambiances totalement différentes de jour & de soir! C'était très plaisant d'expérimenter les deux! Je recommande vraiment ce restaurant!

I had the most memorable birthday dinner at Ciel Bistro Bar in Quebec, a unique restaurant that offers a stunning 360-degree rotary view. The ambiance was truly exceptional, providing a breathtaking panorama of the city lights that added a magical touch to the evening. I was joined by my family & best friend, making the occasion even more special. The food was incredible, with each dish prepared to perfection. For dessert, we indulged in beautifully presented treats that were as delicious as they looked. The combination of great company, delectable cuisine, & the mesmerizing view made this birthday one I'll never forget. Ciel Bistro Bar exceeded all my expectations, & I highly recommend it for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy a fantastic dining experience #night #quebeccity #dinner #birthday #foodlover #foodvideography #happybirthday #oldquebec #quebec #travel #videography #quebeccity

Service impeccable, vue magnifique, nourriture bonne, mais un peu coûteuse, c'est un budget. Je recommande

J'ai vraiment passé un agréable souper. Du début à la fin le personnel a été aux petits soins. Non seulement la vue est bien sur splendide, mais j'ai été agréablement surprise par la qualité des plats. Je recommande pour passer un moment inoubliable.
