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.

Review Summary

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.

Had the chance to go to Jjacques last Saturday. The cocktails were out of this world. We tasted the glazed carrots & foie gras, they were delicious. Impeccable service in a nice moody speakeasy. Highly recommended

Unfortunately I did not get to eat here because they were booked. However the guy at the door was amazing. My family & I had a busy day & did not know what time we would be available for dinner so we did not make a reservation. We had a very difficult time finding a place but jJacques came highly recommended. The place has the vibe like a secret speakeasy a concrete wall with a metal door that has the name printed very small, you have to knock to get in. The guy explained that they were full but he called several places he recommended around town to find something great for us. The nicest person we met on our whole trip. I hope we find time in the future to dine here.

I just ate the best carpaccio I've ever had in my life. Every bite was filled with so much flavor. The atmosphere of this place is top notch. We love looking for speakeasy places around the world & this one exceeded expectations. The service right from Sam at the front door to our waiter to the head chef, Alex - they all made the experience. Drinks were delish & everything we ate on the menu was perfection. Highly recommend a stop here!

A speakeasy with an entrance in an alley way that opens up into a whole different world. Some may say it's dark, & some may think it's romantic, but whatever it is, it's definitely a vibe.

Concept original, entrée détournée dans la rue pour découvrir une salle de restauration intime, du type speakeasy. Personnel très accueillants & professionnel. Pour un apéritif à base de cocktail, huîtres... la place était parfaite. Nous y retournerons pour découvrir les plats cette fois-ci!

A fun speakeasy highlighting seafood & quaffable cocktails. We ordered 2 starters, a seafood tower & it was more than enough food. Nicolas was our server & he was exceptional. He even went out of his way to recommend wines when we asked. I can't wait to come back!
