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.

Highly recommended for seafood lovers. The Platter seafood is good for two & the lobster risotto is a must. The service was excellent & food was phenomenal.

Everything from the food, service & atmosphere was very enjoyable! The food was absolutely delicious & served very fresh. I highly recommend their cocktails, one of the most diverse & beautifully crafted cocktail lists I've ever seen. You'll see what I mean when you go. It will keep me coming back all the way from another province. Thank you! Merci beaucoup.

Highly recommend this special place.

Quelle maîtrise des cuissons ! Pour ma femme qui tente l'agneau dans chaque restaurant & moi les fruits de mer, la versatilité de l'équipe en cuisine se ressentait dans chacun des plats.

& que dire des recommandations des vins pour accompagner !

Chez Jjacques vraiment ils font rimer appétence avec compétence.

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.

Restaurant exceptionnel dans l'ensemble. On comprend rapidement pourquoi il est si bien coté : service professionnel, ambiance maîtrisée & plats très bien exécutés.
Cependant, une erreur importante est survenue durant le repas : les acras de morue servis étaient froids au centre. Dans un établissement de ce niveau, ce type de détail ne devrait tout simplement pas arriver, surtout sur un classique comme celui-là.
Le plat a été retiré de la facture, ce qui est apprécié. Cela dit, considérant la réputation & le positionnement du restaurant, je m'attendais à une prise en charge un peu plus proactive pour compenser l'expérience.
Ça reste une très bonne adresse & je recommande, mais avec ce niveau d'excellence affiché, chaque détail compte.

Absolutely amazing service. My partner & I were visiting the city for our anniversary, fortunately a local recommended this speakeasy. Wonderful staff serving in French & English, & great selection of drinks to celebrate with. We will definitely be back in the future.
