Wonderful experience. The view was of course incredible. My server was amazing; très gentil & patient avec moi donc j'apprends le français & j'ai besoin de practiquer. I was worried that the food wouldn't hold up to the view & that it might be a tourist trap but the food was wonderful. I had the shrimp salad, halibut entree & the crème broulee with a few glasses of Prosecco. All was prepared perfectly. I went early at 5pm as that was all that was available but that was perfect for this time of year as the sun set at 6:15 & I got to see full daylight view, sunset, & darkness with the city lit up. My bill was $100 total & I hadn't held back with my ordering. Very reasonable for the wonderful quality. You must visit when in Quebec

Overall, it was a wonderful experience in a beautiful setting. We had a window seat & full view of the city. Our server was very friendly & couldn't have been more helpful. The atmosphere was lovely & we were fortunate to be there on a gloriously sunny day. The menu was excellent, lots of variety to suit every taste. It was a delightful way to enjoy brunch & spend a relaxing Saturday afternoon. We wouldn't hesitate to return!

We had a wonderful time! The restaurant is easy to find, it's very modern & clean & the views are just outstanding! We were also very lucky with the weather, & the sunset was beautiful
The food was excellent. We ordered the special entrée (mousse aux champignons), the fish of the day & the halibut, which were all delicious. The crème brûlée was also very good 👍
Our waitress (we don't know her name, but she was dark haired & pregnant) was 5 stars. So nice, polite & professional. She spoke French & English & we noticed that she was very friendly with everyone. Many thanks to her for helping us enjoy a wonderful meal & beautiful evening 🙏
