We've been coming here for over 5 years & they never disappoint. In the summer their terrace is wonderful & in the fall & winter the restaurant has a nice cozy bistro feel.

Service is always attentive but not intrusive. Bistro fare'à son meilleur' & the wine & beverage list is nicely organised on a tablet.

A must when visiting Québec City.

Woooooooow! Order the duck confit. They've been perfecting it for 40 years. The squash puree was over the top, the duck was tender, flavorful & delicious. Also ordered the sweet bread - tender, absolutely unique with the chimichurri flavor . Definitely a place worthy of Michelin Stars. Service was very attentive & professional. Thanks for a fantastic experience!

This adorable restaurant is in the lower town part of old Quebec. The ambiance is lovely & it's very upscale; with amazing food, wine & service. I would definitely recommend getting their appetizer special, where you get to try 3 appetizers for a fixed price. We enjoyed the charcuterie (which counted as 2 appetizers) & the beef tartare very much. For dinner, the duck was second to none. It was so tender & flavorful. The rib eye for 2 was fantastic also. Our server was helpful & attentive. It was about $380 Canadian dollars for 3 people (with tip), including a bottle of wine.

This French restaurant is a true gem! The ambiance is cozy & elegant, perfect for a relaxed evening. The dishes are beautifully crafted with authentic flavors that transport you straight to France. The service was warm & attentive, making the entire experience delightful. Highly recommend for anyone craving a taste of French cuisine! Plus I had the most beautiful woman eating dinner with me

We had a lovely experience at L'Échaudé. Our meal was well-prepared & delicious. When we complimented the barman on one of his creations he came to our table with the recipe. The staff were all attentive engaged & delightful. Highly recommend. Bon appétit!

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.

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.

A lovely bistro on a quiet street away from the tourist hotspots. All three appetizers that my family ordered (the veal tongue on potato salad, the gazpacho, & the green bean & zucchini cream soup) were incredibly delicious. The green bean & zucchini soup is the best soup that I have eaten to date! The entrees were just as tasty (the quail, the flank steak, & the duck confit) & I loved the sauce that came with the quail. Our waitress was very kind & attentive. If you visit & the weather is nice, enjoy your meal on the patio!

Wow! My husband & I ate dinner here one night. The server was so nice & attentive. We had the warm goat cheese appetizer & it was great. I had the wagyu steak & it was incredible. My husband had the duck leg confit & loved it. For dessert I had the Tonka bean creme brulee & it's the best creme brulee I've ever had. 10/10 & highly recommend.
