About

La Calebasse restaurant was born of the desire to share African flavors with everyone, without borders or exclusion. The only African restaurant in Quebec City, the owners of La Calebasse are convinced that Africa, the cradle of humanity, has a wealth of gastronomic riches to share.

Food can help us see others in a different light, taking us into the intimacy of a little-known culture...

The restaurant offers an original cuisine and a different culinary art to discover. Combining tradition and innovation, the owners of La Calebasse have put all their energy into bringing together a passionate and attentive team. They are banking on the following strengths:

- Occupy a niche in a context where demand for exotic cuisine is growing, by encouraging Quebecers to open up to new flavors and spices;
- Give immigrant families access to exotic products and dishes specific to their culture, and provide a space for socialization;
- Offer quality cuisine and diversified services to attract a broad clientele;
- Offer evening events: African storytelling, conferences, African music, etc.

Come and experience privileged moments away from everyday stress, while enjoying a gustatory journey to the heart of Africa. That's the spirit of Calebasse: a different philosophy of life and a Zen-like experience.

Je ne connaissais pas le restaurant "La Calebasse". À un souper anniversaire d'un ami, l'accueil était chaleureux, la nourriture excellente & les plats copieux. Les saveurs de plats sont vraiment à connaître. Je vais y retourner & y inviter des amis(es). La formule où il était possible de choisir son menu d'avance est efficace. Moi qui souhaitait découvrir des saveurs d'Afrique, j'ai été emporté. Dans l'intimité ou entre amis(es), je recommande cet endroit à tous. Ne manquez pas ça.

Le service à la clientèle dans ce restaurant est vraiment nulle. T'appelles pour commander & t'arrives , tu dois encore attendre pour que ta commande soit prête.

Très bon petit restaurant Africain tenu par une Ivoirienne. J'y ai mangé un Yassa excellent.
