Difficult place to find but a treasure when you do. Service & food was impeccable. The best oysters we have eaten.

Oct 17, 2023

My wife & I had an incredible evening here. Neither of us had been to a speakeasy style restaurant & bar & JJacques was a great introduction to this style of dining experience. Sam took very good care of us - I enjoyed a dozen oysters (the chef's special daily sauce is truly incredible) while my wife had the shrimp cocktail. My wife's lime daiquery was amazing & my "mile high club" was a close second. The blini were also very good. We also had the cavatelli & the scallops were very good. We ended with a decent kouign-amann. Perhaps our best dinner in Quebec but we did have a lot of beer good meals so it's a tough call...

Talk about a hidden gem! This was probably our best meal in Quebec City. It's in an alleyway where you ring a doorbell & are welcomed into a speakeasy atmosphere. They have an extensive cocktail menu. The food is meant to be shared. They have a bunch of raw bar options. My husband really enjoyed the oysters. I would recommend the scallops & cavatelli. The service was impeccable. Sam took very good care of us. It's not at all pretentious. I would definitely recommend it for a unique evening out.

We had an incredible meal at Jjacques! The food was delicious - we had the oysters, shrimp cocktail, lobster, & cavatelli. The vibe was great as well with really good music playing & a more casual, laid back atmosphere despite it being a nice restaurant. Our waitress, Valerie, was great as well as she was so attentive to our needs & paces out our food & wine perfectly. We will be back!

Loved this speakeasy restaurant. Don't let the entrance fool you.....lovely space inside. Specialty cocktails were great! We sat at the bar & watched the lovely concoctions being made.
Food was excellent. Favorites were the BLT oysters & the mushroom toast. Service was very attentive.
