What reviews say

L'Affaire est Ketchup is widely celebrated as a unique culinary gem in Quebec City, offering an unforgettable and intimate dining experience that makes guests feel like they are sharing a meal at a friend's home. The restaurant is renowned for its exceptional, thoughtfully prepared cuisine, with standout dishes like the sweetbreads, duck, and various seasonal offerings earning consistent praise for their technical depth and remarkable flavor. The atmosphere is frequently described as warm, lively, and unpretentious, complemented by a friendly and highly knowledgeable team who guide patrons through a daily revolving menu presented in both French and English. While the small, cozy space and communal dining concept require advance reservations and a bit of patience, most visitors find the high-quality food, superb wine pairings, and vibrant, authentic energy to be well worth the wait and an absolute highlight of their travels.

One of the best meals we have had in a long time. Food was delicious. The salmon gravlax w/ gazpacho was amazing. Even better was the service. Great hosts & chefs. We had a blast sitting at the bar. Highly highly recommend!

Absolument incroyable comme experience. L'ambiance est très casual malgré le fait que la nourriture est hors de ce monde. Le service est friendly à un niveau que je ne pensais pas possble (j'ai oublié vos noms, mais je vous ai adoré les boys vous êtiez magnifique à voir).

Je recommande fortement de s'installer au bar pour voir la danse qu'ils font pour cuire les plats (& pour pouvoir jaser avec le staff!). Malgré que je sois venu seul, j'ai eu la chance d'etre accompagné de deux merveilleuses personnes qui ont rendus une soirée qui aurait déjà été incroyable encore meilleur.

Ça vaut le hype, un MUST si vous venez à Québec.

We came here for dinner on July 10/25 not knowing what to expect & by the time we were seated we felt like we were catching up with old friends & getting ready for a home cooked meal in their kitchen. The manager Johnathan was the first to greet us & was very friendly, knowledgeable & entertaining. Unlike other restaurants Johnathan waited for all his guests to arrive before announcing the menu to all the guests in the room, & then we ordered. For starters we chose the sweetbread, buffalo mozzarella & bison appetizers - all were amazing. We then had the duck & the fish dishes & they were also delicious. A fine dining experience with attention to flavours, details & plating, but very down to earth guys with great senses of humour that make everyone feel like a friend. During our stay we have been to several of the restaurants in Old Quebec but this experience was by far our favourite. If you're looking for an authentic local dining experience, make sure you come here. Strongly recommend you make reservations in advance, as this is an intimate dining experience with

Wonderful dining experience near old Quebec. Every dish we had was outstanding, but particularly recommend the duck, the pork cheeks & the lamb sweetbread. When you walk into the restaurant, you immediately feel like your in someone's kitchen & the hosts go out of their way to make sure the guests all feel part of a communal experience since it's a small, cozy dining area.

Super cool little place. Fewer than 10 tables plus three seats at the bar. Amazing food without the pretentious atmosphere.

There are two seatings. 6pm & 8:30pm. Reservations are definitely recommended.

Get a seat at the bar if you can. It's like sitting at a chef's table & you can watch all the drinks & food being prepared.

The menu is constantly changing, based on the season & availability of ingredients.

Thank you Jonathan for the recommendations, taking all our questions & making us feel at home.

Mind blown at the food honestly.

My wife broke a wine glass & I still had an unflinching look of happiness & tranquility on my face - sorry about that guys!

Everything we had was amazing but don't you dare miss out on those sweetbreads.

I hope I never forget how tasty this food was. Cannot recommend enough.
