I don't think we'll go back again. For the price point, the food leaves you wanting. The service was attentive & excellent & the staff were great, but the food we had was not exceptional. It was good, but not great by any means. Our hosts in Quebec, who we we invited out to dinner, had eaten there before & also noted the decline in quality of the food. We did write to the business, & after not hearing back & having to follow up with a reminder, we received a curt email to let us know they would share our feedback with the kitchen. In short, if you're going to spend this much on a meal, shop around. This place isn't as good as it used to be & may not merit the stars it earned in the past. P.S. The lineups for the two bathrooms go right by some of the tables. Not cool.

Food was good but not great, however prices were reasonable. Service was slow to start, & we waited for some time without menus & then another good amount of time before anyone came to take drink orders. Service picked up speed as the restaurant cleared out towards the end of the night

This was a late dinner on the night we arrived in Quebec. The wife had steak frites & I enjoyed the seabass. Good service & good atmosphere.

This was the tastiest & juiciest duck confit I've ever eaten! The way they perfectly sear the meat makes it evident that they have been cooking up delicious meals since 1984. Highly recommend

Les plats sont délicieux (produits de qualité, & frais), & le service est exceptionnel. Nous sommes venus le midi & il n'y avait pas de menu pour enfants mais ils ont proposé des options pour adapter le menu pour eux & leur repas était délicieux. Le rapport qualité prix est excellent & surtout honnête. Le serveur avait de délicates attentions pour les enfants, mais aussi pour les parents & ce fut très apprécié. Il était de très bon conseil. À recommander sans aucune hésitation, si vous voulez vous éloigner des « attrape-touristes » du vieux Québec ;)

For the price point I was quite disappointed especially with the reviews. You can find similar quality restaurants for a much better price, service & taste. We were there in the evening with a child & service took over 2 hours. Long waits that were never addressed. Our table was always served last. The scallop appetizer was had overcooked small scallops, with greens that were not tasty & a strange pure with no taste. Gaspacho was ok not extra ordinary. The risotto was soupy, undercooked which always ruins risotto & only have the flavour of garlic. Beef tartare was mediocre, salad had no taste with except for the large pieces of Parmesan, the fries were good. The dessert tasting menu for two was the only thing that met expectations & outshined all other foods. In addition, the bathroom with like an over & dirty the two times we visited. Quite disappointed. I am not sure if we just went on a bad night & also got poor service, as all the other tables were served attentively. Price value definitely below par.

Salmon tartare + 양고기 스테이크 + 리조또 시켜서 먹었는데 매뉴 하나 하나가 정말 맛있었습니다. 특히 양고기 (Lamb)가 잡내 하나도 없이 너무 부드러워서 인상적이었습니다. Dish 하나당 약은 적은 편이지만 가격은 꽤 합리적이라 생각합니다. 음식은 하나도 빼놓지 않고 정말 맛있었습니다. 저녁은 인기가 많으니 미리 사이트를 통해 예약을 하고 가시는 것을 추천드립니다. (단, 노쇼 혹은 당일취소 예약시 인당 10달러 내야함). 아예 일찍 5시~5시 반 사이에 가면 주말에도 자리가 있을 겁니다. 서비스도 매우 훌륭합니다.

Not a Karen, but WORST.SERVICE.EVER... Waited over 45 minutes for our main course & finally left without ever eating. This was particularly disappointing as we had actually booked this with the restaurant for a very special occasion for our wedding anniversary. The special occasion was never acknowledged, & the waiter actually had the gall to bring us the bill for our appetizers & wine at this point. Will never be back.
