Je suis retourné apres 14 ans. C'était tout simplement incroyable. A mon humble avis Ils méritent 2 étoiles Michelin. J'ai hâte d'y retourner!

Laurie Raphaël my experience with you was one of the most incredible restaurant experiences of my life. I simply can not thank you all enough for making my birthday dinner an absolutely magical one.

From walking up to your stunning building to a warm welcome at reception, to shaking hands with Chef Raphael & saying hello to the team. To our lead server Michaël providing service beyond excellence. The food was phenomenal, the timing & precision showcased a quality of excellence like no other. Thank you all so much for giving my best friend & I such a beautiful evening for my very 1st Michelin starred experience.

You have set the bar incredibly high & were absolutely the favorite part of my trip to Quebec. I simply can not thank you all enough. You made my birthday & gave me a memory of you I will carry with me always.

Worthy Michelin Star experinece for the tasting menu. Service was impeccable, & being introduced to the chef & kitchen staff when entering the restaurant through the kitchen was unique. Highly recommended.

Service was excellent, a level above the other 1 star Michelin restaurants we tried ( Le Clan, Coteau). Food was excellent. Upon entering the restaurant you are escorted through a brief walk through part of the kitchen. Dining room was very pretty. Music was a little loud at the beginning, & a diner at the table next to us was a loud nonstop talker. Overall the nicest dining experience we had this trip.

As someone who regularly visits New York City & has been fortunate enough to dine at several Michelin-starred restaurants, I can honestly say that Laurie Raphaël has given me the best dining experience I've ever had. That is not an exaggeration-it is the truth.

Every course of the tasting menu was beautifully executed, balanced, & memorable. Nothing felt repetitive or unnecessary. Each plate showcased incredible technique while still allowing the ingredients to shine. By the end of the meal, I found myself saying,'This is the best meal I've ever had.'

What made the evening even more special was the hospitality. When I mentioned to our server that we were visiting from New York & that Laurie Raphaël had surpassed every Michelin-starred restaurant I had experienced there, he seemed genuinely surprised & deeply appreciative. Before we left, he gave us a copy of the tasting menu description & the restaurant's card, telling us to'take it back to New York' with us. It was such a thoughtful gesture & a wonderful way to end an unforgettable evening.

Québec City is already a beautiful destination, but Laurie Raphaël alone is worth the trip. I will absolutely return the next time I'm back.

Great night, great food in Quebec!
The food was good but not sure it's worth a Michelin star. The service is impeccable. The decor is lovely. We were 4 & loved our night. But now wow moment, not impressed. Fair.

We had previously dined at a Michelin restaurant in France & it was amazing - this one, not so much. Exorbitantly expensive for the taste of the wine & food. Lots of staff interaction & attention & the presentation of the many dishes was unique, inventive, pretty but not that tasty. Over-attention to style & using unusual ingredients that didn't deliver the best flavours & tastes. The wine pairings, for $150.00 each, also failed to deliver. The first whites were good but the red wine from Morocco should have stayed in Morocco as well as the Gavi from Italy. & the finishing cocktail took beautiful Chartreuse & mixed it with lime juice & saki - unique but not delicious. A waste of a French gem.

We did enjoy the amuse bouche & the bbq lobster in sauce. & of course the presentation of all the dishes served was amazing but not delicious. A famous chef once told me that great food should taste like the best that the ingredients can be - so an apple pie should taste like the best apple pie possible, as an example. Not like a bunch of additives to mask the flavour & offer up a conglomerate of palate confusions.

We're sorry we went - for almost a $1,000 for two people we could have had approximately three amazing dinners for two at other excellent restaurants.

Masterpiece in Quebec City
My recent dining experience at Laurie Raphaël was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable-attentive, refined, & perfectly paced.
What truly set this visit apart, however, was their exceptional hospitality toward my family. They provided us with a private room, which made our dining experience incredibly comfortable & stress-free, especially with children in tow. It is rare to find such a high level of thoughtfulness in a fine-dining setting.
As for the cuisine, it was simply sublime. The depth of flavor, creativity, & presentation far exceeded the standards of a one-star Michelin experience. Every course was a work of art that delighted the palate.
If you are visiting Quebec City, Laurie Raphaël is an absolute must-visit. It is truly a world-class establishment that balances sophistication with genuine warmth. We cannot wait to return.
Is there anything else you would like to add to this review, Goho?
