Many guests appreciate the sophisticated, well-presented dishes, particularly the bannock, various salmon preparations, and the creative use of wild flavors.

Décevant de ne pas avoir l'opportunité de prendre le 5 services sans obligé la table de 8 personnes de prendre le 5 services mais je peut prendre un trois service à la carte alors que d'autre personne peuvent prendre le 4 service. & impossible de prendre un bon à la bouteille alors qu'on nous a servi 5 verres à la table du même vin. Entrée de chaudrée de fruit de mer mais servi à une température tiède & vous comprendrai que je n'ai pas osé me plaindre après ma première déception du 5 services que je ne pouvais pas avoir. Pour le service au client c'est ordinaire pour le prix payé & même mon serveur m'a confié qu'ils rapporte de mécontentement des clients depuis très longtemps & que rien ne change. Au prix que se coute dans se genre de resto je crois que c'est la moindre des chose de satisfaire le client.

Reservation is recommended even when the restaurant does not appear to be busy. Great way to make use of your time in Wendake if you are there for the Musée Huron-Wendat. High end conceptual menus such as this are either hit or miss, but this was a hit. Service was excellent apart from one sommelier with a strange attitude. Food was great & worth the slightly higher price point.

Although the food was very expensive, the experience was worth it since it was beautifully decorated in the inside. The bannock was delicious. The candied salmon was delicious in an unexpected but in a good way since the curing elevates the flavor of the salmon. The deer hearts & the pan-fried arctic were also delicious. The Three Sisters Style Cream soup tasted like broccoli cheese soup & was only okay. The desserts were delicious. Overall, it's worth going at least once while in the Québec City area.

Magnifique restaurant, service négligé & 5 assiettes sur 5 nous ont été servies froide. Pas normal pour un restaurant comme ca

The food was great, we tried the 4 plates menu. The portions were small but we were satisfied with our meal. I loved the ambiance. The whole experience was great except for our waitress, we had to ask for butter 3 times before getting it. She was short on her answers & seems in a hurry to go elsewhere. For a +$300 meal for 3 people, I would have expected better service. The Fish, the Fish was GREAT, I believe this was one of the best fish I have ever eaten.

Merci encore pour cette merveilleuse expérience. Ce n'est pas ma première visite ici, & j'y retourne dès que l'occasion se présente, notamment pour faire découvrir ce lieu à mes proches. Le service est toujours aussi accueillant, & tous les plats sont excellents - je peux en témoigner, car je les ai tous dégustés ! Le cadre est des plus cosy, & une petite balade digestive dans le parc derrière le restaurant ajoute une touche parfaite à chaque visite. Je reviendrai sans hésiter, encore & encore.
