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.

Je recommande à tout le monde proche de Québec.

Took my fiancée to JJacques for her birthday weekend in Quebec City, & it was fantastic! The whole experience is pretty cool, starting with buzzing at a discrete grey door to get in - kind of felt like a speakeasy. Inside, it's got a great, bustling atmosphere.

We sat at the bar, which was awesome because we got to see all the food, especially those impressive seafood towers, being prepped. We had some of their specialty cocktails - super tasty. Then we went for the triple seafood tower, & man, it was all incredible! Taylor loved the mussels & the lobster with garlic butter. I was all about the scallops & sea bream.

Seriously, JJacques was a highlight. Great food, cool unique spot, & a really fun night. Definitely recommend it if you're in Quebec City!

Really cool spot in Québec City. Perfect place to grab some great drinks in a chill speakeasy vibe. It's cozy, the decor is beautiful, & the cocktails are creative & super tasty. I had oysters too - they were excellent. Just a solid vibe all around. Highly recommend.

What a memorable night. Our waiter Nicolas was a superstar. Engaging, informative, friendly & the entire team was seamless with their service. The mixologist was A-mazing. Best cocktails we've had in a while. Tokyo Drift, El Diablo & Snowbird were our favourites. The warm oysters & cod fritters for starters were delicious, followed by entrees of Risotto & Scallops, & whole fish fry - done to perfection. Topped off the evening with a Lemon tarlette. Everything was beautifully plated/presented. The bar & banquette area were bustling with conversation & music whereas the high tables in the back are quieter for more intimate conversation. Great experience & we'll definitely go again.
