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.

We went as a family of 4 to La Grolla to dine their fondue & raclette. Needless to say it was amazing! The food was incredible & we loved that the portions were pretty generous. Not only was the food extremely delicious but also the cozy & intimate ambience refined the expierence. Finally, the service was excellent & the servers were really kind. I highly recommend this place to anyone who will be staying in Québec!!

Nous sommes allés manger au restaurant La Grolla avec mon conjoint & nous avons été extrêmement déçus.
Nous avons commandé une fondue au fromage : je n'ai jamais vu une fondue avec aussi peu de fromage dans le caquelon. Il n'y en avait même pas assez pour une seule personne.
Nous sommes pourtant de vrais connaisseurs & avons déjà mangé des fondues dans plusieurs restaurants, mais celle-ci est de loin la pire que nous ayons mangée. Après à peine quatre morceaux de pain chacun, il n'y avait déjà plus de fromage.
Nous avons signalé le problème à un serveur, qui nous a lui-même confirmé que beaucoup de clients se plaignaient de la quantité insuffisante de fromage & qu'il était d'accord avec nous.
& pour couronner le tout, nous avons payé 95 $ pour deux personnes, soit huit morceaux de pain avec un fond de fromage. C'est tout simplement une honte.
Malgré notre remarque & l'accord du serveur, aucune ristourne, aucun geste commercial ne nous a été accordé au moment de l'addition.
Une expérience décevante du début à la fin. Honteux jusqu'au bout.

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.

Par où commencer… En fait, je vais commencer par la conclusion : soirée parfaite.
Nous y sommes allés en amoureux pour un bon souper du temps des fêtes, & tout était absolument magnifique. Une délicieuse fondue au fromage accompagnée d'une excellente bouteille de vin, dans une ambiance chaleureuse & romantique.

Le service était tout simplement exceptionnel : attentionné, professionnel & sincèrement accueillant. Chaque détail était soigné, ce qui a rendu notre expérience mémorable.

Une chose est certaine : nous y retournerons sans hésiter. Une adresse incontournable dans le Vieux-Québec!

Le restaurant est charmant & intime. La nourriture est savoureuse. Les portions de viande pour la fondue chinoise ainsi que les accompagnements sont généreuses. Notre service de la part d'Ariane était impeccable . C'est une adresse que je conserverai pour mes prochaines escapades à Québec !

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 !

A very cozy spot for friends & family. I got a fondue chinoise with an extra side of prawns, the broth was good with a strong aroma. Beef & prawns were so so.
