Review Summary

L'Affaire Est Ketchup offers a unique and intimate dining experience that many patrons liken to enjoying a high-quality meal in a close friend's home. The restaurant features a revolving, seasonal menu that is announced to the entire dining room at once, fostering a communal and engaging atmosphere. While the venue is celebrated for its masterful, unpretentious culinary approach and exceptional dishes like sweetbreads, duck, and various seafood options, some visitors find the pace of the meal to be quite slow and the small, rustic space occasionally uncomfortable. Despite a few mixed reviews regarding portion sizes and the temperature of the room, the majority of diners praise the passionate staff, the theatrical presentation of the food, and the overall authenticity of the experience, often describing it as one of the best meals they have had in Quebec City.

The experience was so surprising, my partner suggested we go to this place for dinner during our trip to Quebec & I didn't know much about it going in. To say I was impressed was an understatement. The food was delicious & so well thought out. The wait staff were friendly & personable. We will definitely be returning on our next trip if we can secure a reservation. Thank you!

Pour le prix l'environnement est pas bon ... pas de air conditionné pour une soirée de 29 degré c'est chaud . & on attend assez longtemps pour les service . Les canards & escalopes sont très bon; fois gras cognac est bon aussi avec le canard , mais le calamar que j'ai commandé est pas très frais, je me demande si c'est mal décongelé ; & l'assaisonnement trop salé, j'avais eu du mal à le finir , calamar & crevette ( pour le prix de 39 pour ce plat c'est assez cher ) Si on ne fais pas bien le contrôle de qualité adéquatement je recommande pas car c'est quand même très cher pour deux personnes (230 pour deux , avec tip) & l'environnement ne fait pas rêver . Mais les serveurs sont très chaleureux .
