Review Summary

La Nouvelle France receives mixed feedback, with many visitors praising the beautiful atmosphere, the ideal location near the Château Frontenac, and the pet friendly policy. The French onion soup is a frequent highlight, often described as delicious and comforting, while other patrons enjoy the diverse menu options, including gluten free and vegetarian choices. However, opinions on food quality and value are inconsistent, as some guests find the meals overpriced or underwhelming compared to expectations. While many reviews emphasize the warm, accommodating service provided by the staff, a few customers have expressed discomfort regarding the pressure placed on them concerning gratuities during the payment process.

Pouring rain & found this gem of Quebec. They welcomed us with wet dogs in tow. We got a spot under a large umbrella & had amazing home made soup whilst our dogs got a beef meal themselves. What a treat. Clearly the waiter was the owner & his mother was easy to spot smiling at our happily fed dogs. We stopped previously at many places looking for vegetarian poutine & finally found it here. Thank you so much for making our day in old city Quebec so memorable. Cheers!!

The traditional meat pie was very good! Onion soup was NOT good. First time it was very oversalted, they replaced it, & it was still very average. Friendly staff & great location though.

Cozy little bistro. They specialize in the outdoor seating; even in winter, with fire pits & hot beverages. The French Onion Soup was the best we had all week, huge portion. The staff were friendle & helpful.

Mon restaurant préféré du vieux Québec ! La nourriture est extraordinaire (en particulier la tourtière & la soupe à l'oignon !!!), le personnel est d'une gentillesse incroyable. J'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner!

A friend & I ate here tonight & it was amazing. We made the mistake of over ordering elsewhere so decided to share a 3 course meal & add some extras. The cauliflower soup of the day & the escargots were delicious, the Quebec pie was very tasty & the maple syrup pie, albeit very sweet, was off the scale good!!! Very friendly host & staff 😍🥰😄
