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.

Ambiance plus que chaleureuse & amicale. Un resto comme à la maison, sans aucune prétention!!!
Concept unique & original, bouffe gastronomique dans un décor atypique « de vieil appartement ». Un contraste savoureux 😊!!

What an amazing experience! We sat at the bar & got to watch all the cooking & chopping. We had deer tartare & octopus for appetizers & scallops & chef's entree for main courses. We were too stuffed for dessert but opted for a sazerac instead. Highly recommend, totally worth the $!
