On a strong recommendation, we had a magnificent dining experience! Their concept is homey yet highly elevated. All of the offerings were absolutely mouth-watering & it was difficult to choose simply because all of them were delicious! We opted this evening for veal sweetbreads, croquette of blood pudding & bone marrow or appetizers. For the main course we had duck, seafood & pork cheek . We rounded out the meal with cheesecake. All were masterfully & deliciously compared. Rich & full of flavor! Overall just a fabulous experience with great memories! The staff are all very friendly & attentive & helpful to explain the many items & help you make those tough decisions! We look forward to coming back again next time we are in town! Highly recommended!
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.

Highly recommend this unique dining experience! The staff were friendly & very well educated, I really appreciated their knowledge of the wine list, they recommended the perfect pairing for my meal. The meal itself was amazing, high quality ingredients & perfectly executed (I had the duck). This was one of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had.
Dinnerware delicious. Our group tried the lamb, duck, beef & liver dishes & the sweetbreads, mozzarella & duck apps. Our server was from Lyon France & was super nice. All was delicious.
This restaurant offers a unique dining experience that creates a fun & family like environment. There are two dining sessions & customers are seated simultaneously to prepare for the round of service. You start with some drinks & then the menu is explained in detail in both English & French to all customers. The food is solid, especially the apps (buffalo mozz & sweetbreads were phenomenal) but there were some issues for the temperature of the proteins on the mains. We ordered duck & swordfish, which should be cooked between a medium rare to medium, but both our dishes were on the rare side of rare. Very undercooked with made the fish tough to eat as the connective tissues have not broken down. We expected a nice fish steak & instead got a more sashimi style strips that were almost inedible. The flavors on the duck dish were fantastic, but again…duck should not be served rare as there are some tough parts to chew through. dessert was awesome & drinks were ok overall. The restaurant could use better ventilation as the entire building fills with smoke once they start cooking. Very nice guys though & cool atmosphere.
We visited for our anniversary last week & were blown away by this place. The simplicity of the kitchen, casual decor, & incredible service really amplified the experience. The food was absolutely flawless. We loved every minute. We had the blood pudding, the foie gras, the seafood plate, & the duck poitrine. I have never had such tender octopus. It was so beautiful & we cannot wait to return.
The dining experience at L'Affaire est Ketchup was truly exceptional. From the moment we were seated, it was clear that the evening would be memorable. With a selection of 5 appetizers & 5 entrées, choosing was a delightful challenge. The Fois Gras & Salmon were outstanding, & the Steak & Duck elevated the meal to new heights. I highly recommend this restaurant & suggest sitting at the bar for an up-close view of the kitchen's artistry.
I loved it. It was like we were family. The service was just outstanding. The food was amazing. Our table ordered all the apps. The best being the sweetbreads, the bone marrow, & the cheese. But they were all excellent. Our group had most of the entrees, but I only tried the risotto, which was good & the duck which was amazing. Just one of the best nights out in a long time. So great.
