Lovely old building with an authentic northern Canadian feeling. Luckily we had made reservations, as the line up to get in was very long. Great French Canadian music. The food was tasty & a wide variety of meats & dishes were available. We had the chef's special (venison shank with fettuccine & scallops) & the Shepherd's pie. Both were delicious. For dessert we tried the poor man's cake with ice cream. This was not to our liking, but many people recommended it so it was just a personal choice. I would definitely recommend you try this place as it us an unique experience.

Great good & staff. Laurianne, our waitress, was just perfect. We live in Qc City & can only but recommend this "local" restaurant located in a touristy area.

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.

Our visit to La Bouche was one of the highlights of our trip to Quebec.

The food was beyond amazing. The jambon is now on my list as one of the best dishes I have ever had in my life - & that is a looooong life. This dish can easily serve two.

Everyone in our party loved the restaurant. The chefs did an amazing job providing a dinner for one member who is vegan.

The atmosphere was fun. Our waitress was unfailingly polite & accepting of our high-school-level French skills.

I wish I knew how to thank my tour guide who, the day before our visit, mentioned La Bouche & recommended it to those of us on the tour. I would never have known to make reservations without him.

Think about opening a branch in St. Louis, Missouri - we actually share a French heritage. You would be the only Quebecois restaurant in town. - That is probably the only way I could experience that jambon once again. It is sad to realize I never will.

Merci, merci, merci.

We had Breakfast included when we booked a stay at Hotel Le Clos Saint Louis. The breakfast experience far exceeded our expectations as did the service. It is a very unique dining experiences to discover for one's self. I'd Bacon is appropriate during your dining, strongly recommended. This may seem a strange thing to recommend, but visit the bathroom downstairs. One more thing, loved the music.

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.
