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.

Quelle superbe expérience! La bouffe & l'atmosphère étaient parfaites. Très charmant restaurant, bien situé avec la vue sur la ville. Nous nous attendions à des portions un peu plus grosses, mais les fondues étaient tellement riches & savoureuses que cela n'avait que peu d'importance au final. Un grand merci à notre serveuse Arianne qui nous a fait passer un très beau moment dont nous nous souviendrons longtemps.

We were looking for an eating adventure while visiting Quebec. After going to a Quebecois & a French restaurant, we thought we'd go further in our explorations. This was a great choice!

Just outside the walled city is this casual cozy restaurant. Our server, Oliver, spoke impeccable English & was attentive & patient with our questions. There were a lot of options on the menu!

We ordered both beef & cheese fondues & enjoyed both. When we ran out of bread before cheese, Oliver refilled the bread. As the cheese got low, he turned down the heat on our pot to ensure it didn't burn, & then scraped off & tempered the cheese that was starting to harden in the bottom. We ate every bite!

This was a fun fun evening with good food & service!

Le serveur Olivier est courtois, chaleureux & convivial. Service hors pair ! Merci 🙏
Délicieuse fondue au fromage, bel assortiment dans l'assiette de charcuterie. Nous avons eu une soirée formidable.
La carte des vins pourraient être bonifiée.

The service was wonderful...Arienne was patient, pleasant, & provided a ton of information for our first try at a fondue restaurant. She obviously enjoys her work!

The food was excellent, & special requests were granted with ease.

Nous avons pris la fondue Grulla & nous avons bien aimé. Excellent service avec Ariane. Nous avons également pris deux assietes de légumes car nous étions quatre & personne n'a pris d'oignons crus alors on suggère de remplacer ceux-ci par des chou-fleurs ou plus de brocoli.
