About

Behind a closed door and opaque curtains, you enter the dreamlike universe of jjacques, a space disconnected from time where the bar and kitchen unite to offer a unique experience. For one evening, let yourself be carried away by the energy that pervades it, enveloped by colors, textures, and materials, and savor the present moment. Come and enjoy an intimate and sensory pleasure-filled moment.

Is jjacques a restaurant, an oyster bar, or a cocktail bar? It's up to you to decide.

The cuisine is centered around sharing, focused on seafood and comprised of small dishes, but not neglecting fine cuts of meat and seasonal products. To fully experience it, take the time to savor one of our enticing seafood towers.

The cocktail menu, themed around travel, offers you around twenty original cocktails, both with and without alcohol, as well as many elegantly executed classics. The wine cellar hosts both classic fine wines and little treasures in nature. The bar shelves are home to the finest available spirits.

Named in Canada's 100 Best as one of the top 50 bars in the country since 2022 and holding the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence, jjacques promises you an extraordinary evening. Reservations are highly recommended.

JJacques offers a unique and memorable speakeasy experience in Quebec City, celebrated for its warm, intimate atmosphere and exceptional hidden entrance. Visitors frequently praise the expertly crafted cocktail menu and an impressive selection of spirits, which stand out as highlights of the establishment. The food consistently earns high marks, particularly the fresh, high-quality oysters and creative seafood dishes, all delivered by attentive and bilingual staff who are dedicated to providing professional service. While it is a popular spot that can become busy, the overall quality, stylish decor, and meticulous attention to detail make it a highly recommended destination for both locals and travelers seeking a special dining experience.

Service très courtois, rapide, efficace & agréable. Portions extrêmement trop petites pour le prix : pour un plat entre 30$ & 40$, je m'attends à avoir plus de 5 bouchées. À 2 personnes, ça nous a coûté 300$ & nous avions encore faim après le repas, ce qui est inacceptable à mon avis. Il y avait trop de bruit dans le restaurant tellement qu'on ne s'entendait pas parler alors que nous avions une banquette quand même éloignée des autres personnes : il y avait un groupe de 4 filles derrière nous qui criaient sans arrêt & personne ne leur a demandé de baisser le volume, ce qui aurait été plus que nécessaire honnêtement. La nourriture était toutefois excellente & les cocktails étaient délicieux, quoique trop peu remplis encore une fois. Je comprends qu'il s'agit d'un restaurant haut de gamme pour découvrir différents plats de qualité supérieure & non se bourrer en quantité, mais nous avons trouvé que l'équilibre qualité-quantité-prix laissait à désirer. Nous ne recommanderons pas ce restaurant pour cette raison...

We sat in the banquette section which was very comfortable & intimate. From ringing the doorbell to get in to the end of the evening, this was an incredible experience. We decided to leave the cocktail(s) choosing to our waiter. He chose well! We weren't rushed at all. We made our way through a number of small plates over the course of about 2.5 hours. We had salmon bites, BLT oysters, raw oysters, burrata (amazing), carpaccio, pasta, broccoli, & both desserts. We were in foodie heaven & highly recommend Jjacques.

Une très belle expérience, un bel accueil, une belle ambiance, un personnel gentil & respectueux. Un repas extraordinaire, un vrai délice, nous avons dégusté chaque bouchée avec délectation. Des cocktails bien équilibrés & de bonne suggestion pour le vin. Je referais l'expérience n'importe quand. Il est certain que j'y retournerai. Une belle expérience à tous les points de vue.

Wonderful evening! The food was amazing-oysters, beef carpaccio, whole fish & pasta. Every dish was perfect! Cocktails are a must too. Excellent, friendly service. A bit difficult to find, but that's to be expected for a speakeasy! Look for the address & name at the top of the door. Highly recommend!
