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.

JJacques was an outstanding find with an amazing atmosphere, superb cocktails & incredible food. The tomahawk steak was perfection & the oysters were fresh & delicious. The superb service by our waiter Nicholas topped off the experience for our group of 6. Highly recommended. The speakeasy entrance off the alley added to the whole experience. Well done!

Best meal of our entire Quebec City trip. jjacques is tucked behind an unmarked door off a quiet alley - we walked right past it before finding the entrance, which only added to the fun once we got inside.

The atmosphere is intimate & moody, almost like a speakeasy - a nice change of pace from the busier spots in Old Québec.

Food was outstanding: fresh, briny oysters, a rich & perfectly balanced lobster risotto, scallops seared to perfection, & a berry dessert that was the perfect light finish.

If you're in Quebec City, don't miss this one - just know to look for the unmarked door in the alley. Worth every bit of the search.

Wish I was able to spend more time here but we came on Valentines day with no reservations so we were able to get in for a few minutes before the scheduled party was due to show. We had oysters & cocktails & both were 10/10

drinks are really good - but the oysters are the best oysters i've ever had in my life. I literally went back to back days just for the oysters. Absolute must

The oysters were amazing & so fresh. We had Silver monk, À la Lousiana, Tokyo drift & bicycle thief which were all amazing. Everything was so worth the price & definitely worth the hype of being the top 10 bars in Canada

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!
