About

Back in the day, when Savoyard shepherds wanted to warm up, they poured a little coffee and a lot of alcohol into a wooden shoe, hence the name “grolle”. Later, these shepherds made wooden containers that included several holes specifically designed for this recipe. There are now several sizes of grolles depending on the number of guests (from 2 holes to 8 holes). The grolle, also known as the “cup of friendship”, usually gets passed from hand to hand and should not come back on the table until it is finished.

This was absolutely fantastic. We had the Quebec cheese fondue for 2, Bacchus surf & turf, & raclette between 3 people & it was perfect. Definitely make time for this on your visit!

Been here multiple times & it is lovely each time. This is the place to stop & eat a lovely supper with your date/GF/Wife... Watch out, 1 cheese fondue is suffice for 4 people if you are having other items.

This fondue place was amazing. We got the Trio option which is cheese, broth or oil, & chocolate or maple course. It was all very good & with portions we could not finish. Our waiter was very kind about our knowing very little French. They make no fuss about it, they just switch from table to table, which is pretty impressive. They were very attentive & nice!

We really enjoyed the Quebec cheese with bread cubes. The mini potato we added we cooked perfectly! The chocolate fondue was also good.

Although a little far from the downtown Quebec City core, the experience was worth the distance. The location is unpretentious as are the wait staff - who are the children of the owner. We went here because we wanted a Swiss fondue experience - & we got it. We had 2 meals - one a Gruyere cheese fondue with bread chunks & the other, thinly sliced beef for cooking in a beef broth. Both were served with 4 different dipping sauces. Delicious. We would go again if back in town.

Absolutely amazing experience. Its a cozy & cute restaurant. We had the raclette with charcuterie & cheese fondue. The server was helpful & patient as this was my first experience of this type. The dishes were delicious & it was a fabulous experience. Perfect having a nice bottle of wine with this dining experience. It's a must do experience here.

UPDATE: photos from our last visit

Fondue dinner is our annual anniversary tradition …. & what better place to check out than a fondue restaurant right in the heart of Quebec City !

The restaurant is quaint; the decor is very cute & the staff are so friendly.

We started off with the french onion soup - a soup which I had never had before. It made me wonder why I took this many years to try it ! Fantastic !

We then made our way to the second course of cheese fondue. We chose the Quebec cheeses & we were glad we did. Amazing ! Of course the best part is at the end;'la religieuse' it's the salty goodness of the cheese that has crisped up at the bottom of the pot.

The main course was fondue bourginone (pretty sure I spelled that wrong!) which was very different than the fondue chinoise we are accustomed to. This particular fondue is cooked in oil & paired with tenderloin. Their dipping sauces are homemade. We were so very pleased with the bourginone option !

Lastly was dessert; chocolate fondue with a variety of fruits & marshmallows. You can't go wrong with dipping anything in chocolate but it was not'out of this world' or anything - but - a great way to end the meal.

If you're in Quebec City definitely go check this place out ! Unlike most fondue restaurants you will not end up smelling like the place upon leaving !
