I booked La Buche after seeing positive reviews online. I went with my boyfriend for dinner as our first dinner / night out in Quebec City. I thought it was a perfect place to start the vacation as it was kitschy, fun, & lively. The food was decent - we shared the pea soup as an appetizer (5/5), I got the Shepard's pie (3/5), & my boyfriend got the club sandwich (5/5). The service was just okay, which I found surprising as most reviews I had read raved about the service; I mean, our waitress was perfectly fine, she just wasn't GREAT, nor made it an "experience." I would go back again, & I'd recommend others to go, but the recommendation would mostly be based on the vibes of the restaurant, music, & kitschy Canadian feels you get when dining there.

Delightful staff, delicious food. Smoked trout & rabbit wings were delicious. Pate a Chinois (shepherd's pie) was outstanding. You have to try maple taffy. Bison steak was prepared perfectly. Did I mention maple taffy? Reservation is highly recommended.

We ate at La Buche during a 3-day trip to Quebec City from Calgary, Alberta. The restaurant location is within easy walking distance of anyone staying in the old city. The decor & vibe is outdoorsey casual. The food & service were both fantastic! I had the bison game special of the day. My wife had the French onion soup & the Quebec shepherd's pie. The appetizer & both entrees were cooked to perfection & tasted fantastic. I topped off the evening with a famous Quebec Sugar Pie a la mode. Talk about yummy!!! Team members checked on us numerous times throughout our dining experience. Prices were reasonable for a nice restaurant in the somewhat inflated prices of old town Quebec City. Based on our experience we give La Buche 6 out of 5 (that's right) & would definitely recommend this restaurant to others. Reservations are highly recommended as there was a line of would-be patrons waiting to get in when we left around 7:00pm. Bon apettite sur La Buche!

Everything about this restaurant is Excellent & unique. The Service is excellent, the interior décor is appropriate, unique & well kept. The seating options are perfect providing outdoor, Pub style seating as well as very comfortable dining room seating. I can't say enough about how Fabulous the PÂTÉ CHINOIS (Shepherd's Pie) is. I don't know if I've ever had a dish with so many varied & wonderful flavors. Outstanding! &, you have never tasted Ketchup until you have had La Buche's Homemade Ketchup-WOW!
