Très belle place, belle expérience, mais ! Ce que j'ai commandé : omelette aux champignons… À la base très bonne, mais champignons en conserve :( très décevants au goût.
L'expérience 1 x dans sa vie pour ma part & ils ont un service de valet. Déco & ambiance très québécoises & musique forte !

Véritable cabane à sucre, ce fut une très belle expérience pour en découvrir davantage sur la culture québécoise. L'ambiance était authentique & immersive. Cependant, même si les prix ne sont pas excessifs, certains plats peuvent être un peu chers, surtout pour le dîner.

Restaurant La Bûche was the perfect spot for our first night in Quebec. It was crowded & buzzing in the best way, with a lively, welcoming energy. The décor is campy but charming & adds to the fun, casual vibe. Our waitress was incredibly friendly & helped make the experience even better.

Food highlights were the poutine with meat topping-truly excellent & addictive-the French onion soup, deer tartare, & the make?your?own maple taffy for dessert, which was a fun & memorable finish. The only miss was the meat pie, which I really wanted to love but found a bit too dry & could have used more broth or gravy.

Overall, a lively, comforting, & very Quebecois meal that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Fun atmosphere, awesome food. Portions are huuuge. A bit pricey but worth it for getting to try quebecois food. They're great with nut allergies!

What a great experience. The space is totally unique - a rambling set of rooms, each with a unique atmosphere. Brunch was great - each of us tried the Cabane a Sucre plate. My Quebecois friends raved about cretons & I can see why! All delicious.

We visited La Buche at 8:00 PM on a packed Thursday night, & I'm so glad we booked online in advance, we were seated almost immediately despite the crowd. The energy in the room was high & vibrant, the decor had so many interesting details, making for a truly memorable atmosphere.

We were pleasantly surprised when it was the co-proprietor (Mychael?) personally led us to a beautifully appointed table by the window. Our server was incredibly accommodating & welcoming, which really helped since this was our first time diving into authentic Quebecois cuisine.

The food was a gastronomic & cultural revelation. We shared several dishes, & every single one hit the mark:

* The Classics: The La Tourtière Facon Buche (duck, pork, beef meat pie) & Onion Soup were hearty & traditional.

* The Starters: The Tartare de Cerf (deer tartare) & Croquettes de Pate (meat pie nuggets) offered a great introduction to local flavors.

* The Mains: Both the Salmon Dylan Cabane & the Roti de Cochon (pork - so tender) were expertly prepared.

While the pricing is on the higher side, the quality of the ingredients & the level of service make it a worthwhile splurge. It's a fantastic spot if you want a lively, upscale take on French-Canadian comfort food.

We haven't tried the other choices & we missed dessert so we definitely have a reason to come back!

Obviously a very touristy spot, but I think it's still well worth your time for the very authentic Quebecois ambience, food, & music. We had a great server & we enjoyed the fun & raucous atmosphere. Both the food & drinks were solid & it was one of the better poutines we had between both QC & Montreal. Worth a visit!

Our group of 6 had a great & unique dining experience at La Buche in March 2026. We loved the great selection of traditional hearty Quebecois dishes &'lighter' perhaps more modern dishes. They covered the range for all to have a great meal. I especially enjoyed the custom house Bloody Mary that came garnished with celery, shrimp & bacon! As good as the food was, the service & atmosphere were awesome & made it a true event. If visiting Quebec, you must go here!
