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.

Very enjoyable! Menu is presented to the whole restaurant simultaneously verbally. They are able to translate for you if required. Very nice social vibe as if you're at a friends house but equally intimate for you & your group :)

Pour les amateurs de ris de veau, il faut y goûter, un des meilleurs que j'ai mangé. Nous y avons été cet été & il peut y faire très chaud mais le service & l'ambiance nous fait oublier ce petit bémol. Service des plus convivial.

La cuisine était délicieuse & le service exceptionnel. C'est la deuxième fois que j'y vais & j'ai été entièrement satisfait! Je donne 4 étoiles sur 5 car il y avait énormément de fumé hier. Je me suis senti étourdi à un certain moment & j'ai mal à la gorge aujourd'hui... J'ai vu que le personnel a ouvert les portes pour tenter de remédier à la situation & ils faisaient vraiment leur possible... mais c'était vraiment inconfortable comme situation! Je comprend le concept d'une petite cuisine mais il faut investir dans une meilleur ventillation ou réparer l'équipement à ce stade ci de fumé!
