À l’époque, lorsque les bergers savoyards voulaient se réchauffer, ils versaient un peu de café et beaucoup d’alcool dans un sabot de bois, d’où le nom de « grolle ». Plus tard, ils ont fabriqué des récipients en bois avec plusieurs trous spécifiquement conçus pour cette recette. Il existe aujourd’hui plusieurs tailles de grolles en fonction du nombre de convives (de 2 à 8 trous). La grolle, appelée aussi « coupe de l’amitié », se passe de main en main et ne doit pas revenir sur la table avant qu’elle ne soit finie.
La Grolla propose une expérience culinaire suisse authentique et chaleureuse au cœur de la ville de Québec, qui séduit régulièrement ses visiteurs par son atmosphère rustique et conviviale. Le menu offre une grande variété de fondues, incluant les options fromage, bouillon et chocolat, lesquelles sont souvent décrites comme délicieuses, généreuses et parfaites à partager entre amis ou en famille. Bien que les expériences puissent varier, l'opinion générale souligne un accueil attentionné, avec une équipe fréquemment louée pour son professionnalisme et ses recommandations avisées. Qu'il s'agisse d'une soirée romantique ou d'un repas de célébration, la clientèle apprécie le décor charmant et la qualité des plats, faisant de cet établissement une destination mémorable et incontournable.
We had an incredible experience at La Grolla! We ordered the fondue trio-cheese, traditional, & chocolate-with an extra portion of shrimp, & it was more than enough for two adults & two kids. Every bite was delicious, & the variety made the meal really fun & satisfying for everyone. The highlight, though, was the service. Our waitress, Oliver, was outstanding-friendly, attentive, & made us feel so welcome. Highly recommend La Grolla for a cozy, delicious, & memorable fondue night!
Great staff. But compared to other fondue places, not even close to worth the price for the quantity & quality. We had the cheese, broth, & chocolate trio for two with a french onion soup.
It feels like a lovely Swiss chalet inside very cozy . Great atmosphere felt like I was walking into someone's home kitchen fabulous. Reanne made us feel at home!!! She was great! The best fondue I've ever had. The cheese had amazing flavor ! The filet quality was tender & it was seasoned with sesame seeds, when toasted in the broth, it came alive with flavor. Highly recommend.

We were in Switzerland last & eat fondue at two different cities. This place has better cheese & beef broth than any place in Switzerland. We highly recommend this place!
The staff here are absolutely amazing & very attentive. The restaurant was super clean. We ordered the traditional Chinese fondue for two . The first course was a lovely cheese fondue with a variety of breads. The second course was thinly sliced beef that we cooked in the most amazing broth & the dessert was a platter of seasonal & favourite fruits with a lovely chocolate fondue sauce , aside from being more food than we could possibly eat each course was absolutely amazing. We would highly recommend making the time for a nice leisure dinner at La Grolla.
Wonderful food! I had the cheese fondue with tomato & garlic with a side of bread & a sack of potatoes. Delicious to say the least! Ambience was warm & cozy.
Service was great but had to wait for almost 10 minutes before I could speak to anyone to get myself seated despite having a reservation.
Wow!!! Some of the best cheese & chocolate fondue I've had! Some really good options, but we opted for the classic dishes- recommended by our server (also the owner). A little tucked away up the hill, but absolutely worth the climb!
It is amazing, the cheese fondue is great! & so is the chocolate fondue as a sweet treat in the end. Soo good. Definitely worth a visit. You have to reserve early enough though, they are booked out fast.
My husband & I are visiting Quebec City & enjoyed a delicious & romantic dinner here. Our waitress was very kind & gave great recommendations. We loved both the thin beef with Bacchus broth fondue & the cheese fondue with shallots (Jurassienne). The maple dessert fondue blew us out of the water. We'll remember this meal fondly for the rest of our lives!
If I could give La Grolla 6 stars I would! Highly recommend the 3 course fondue option with cheese, broth & chocolate! Adriane is amazing - the service was spectacular & fun! Go go go!
