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.

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.

This place is absolutely ace & was our favorite place we dined during our stay in Quebec City. The cocktails were delicious & varied, the food was wonderful (every course), & the service was excellent. In addition to recommending menu items, Nicolas/Nicholas was amazing & really went out of his way to recommend things to see & do, including things that weren't on our original list. Even sketched out a little map for us. We will be back when we return. Thank you for a memorable visit.

Sans aucun doute, une des meilleures sorties à Québec. Nous avons été servis par un professionnel à 23h15 un vendredi soir, il avait étudié à l'ITHQ.L'approche en entier fut parfaite. D'excellent cocktail avec un ajustement personnalisé suivi d'une précision allant même jusqu'au positionnement des ustensiles d'une manière churgicale.

Très belle première expérience! Il faut prévoir le budget cependant...
Nous avons été accueillies chaleureusement & servies avec beaucoup d'attention tout au long du repas. L'ambiance est cosy & unique.
Entrée de maigret de canard excellente & assiette de fruits de mer très savoureuse. Les cocktails sont très goûteux & il y en a une vaste gamme.

Nothing but amazing things to say about this speakeasy! The oysters are a MUST (their spicy sauce with mango is unreal), the cocktails cater to everyone's taste, their service is over par. Nicholas is so friendly, professional & helpful - made us feel right at home. Would recommend in a heartbeat & will be back very soon!

Wow, we had cocktails & dinner here last night & everything was fantastic.
Selection of cocktails was impressive- many different styles & complex. We sat at the bar & it was a really fun experience to watch them get made.
Food wise, highly recommend the butterfish tataki & foie gras torchon. We also ordered oysters (delicious!), mushroom tortellini & poached pear for dessert. All were excellent.
Service was 10/10 from start to finish- servers were lovely & attentive.

Would highly recommend & suggest reservations as it got busy really fast!

Don't miss this place!!! hidden gem in a very touristy city. We missed the entrance twice but luckily we called & the host came outside & waved us down! Speakeasy vibes at the entrance, coat check & great aesthetic inside. Elevated but hip. Some of the best cocktails. Service was great & the food was fresh & flavorful. Vibes were high & a great playlist
