Les touches personnelles qu'il nous a prodigué tout au long de notre soirée nous ont laissés à la fois heureux & profondément reconnaissants. La longue vie à la Bûchette & surtout à la prochaine.
Could not say better things about this restaurant!! We came for breakfast, but ended up getting there too late (late risers) so we had the poutine & salad & decided to stay for the cocktails!! & OH! The cocktails! Our waiter, Chris, had just reconstructed the cocktail menu & it was impeccable! Highly recommend the La Buvette, perfect balance on a creative cocktail! The poutine is an elevated version of what you can get in Old Quebec City - definitely worth the stop to give it a try. The atmosphere, with its old world stone wall along the back, & lovely fireplace, the modern entryway with the hostess stand doorway, the antler chandeliers, which usually aren't my jam, but surprisingly work in this space, the modern alt/pop-rock playing on the speakers in the dining room, the basement bathroom, it's the perfect marriage of all this quaintness you'd expect & modern taste that is necessary to attract the most discerning clientele. MUST SEE in Quebec City! Hot tip: Request Chris as your waiter! Ask him to give you his recommendations of his faves in the city!
We decided to book La Buchette for our final dinner in Quebec. La Buchette absolutely did not disappoint as a grand finale vacation meal. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy & welcoming, the staff were very friendly, attentive, & conversational. Christopher was assisting us with our meal & was thorough with all of his descriptions of the foods & drinks we ordered. He & the rest of the staff took time to get to know us & make sure that everything we ordered was to our liking. We ordered the lion's mane mushrooms, the duck carpaccio, the bison tomahawk, & flambéed crepes for dessert. The dinner service was paced well & the presentations were beautiful. The mushrooms had an interestingly complex, savory flavor, the bison was cooked perfectly tender, there was no need for a serrated knife. The crepes were an experience in themselves, flambéed table side with maple ice cream on the side. The cocktails were creative & all had a little bit of local flair with the choice of ingredients. I would absolutely recommend La Buchette to anyone looking to have a delicious & elevated dining experience with the local flavors of Quebec. If I lived in the area, I could easily see myself being a regular for a delightful weekend meal.
