Enter an exotic place where you seat next to mysterious beasts. Enjoy the sheer, raw pleasure that you will appreciate over and over again.
Le Clan offers a highly regarded culinary journey characterized by its dedication to local terroir and creative, well-presented dishes. Many guests praise the exceptional service, knowledgeable staff, and professional atmosphere, often highlighting the impressive wine and non-alcoholic pairings. While the tasting menus and small plates are frequently celebrated for their quality and innovation, some visitors have noted inconsistencies in pacing, portions, or service attentiveness. Overall, the restaurant is widely considered a memorable destination for those looking to experience high-quality regional cuisine in an elegant setting.
An unforgettable dining experience at Le Clan. We chose the tasting menu with wine pairing, & from start to finish it was absolutely fantastic. Each course was beautifully presented, thoughtfully composed, & bursting with flavor, perfectly complemented by the wine selections.
It's easy to understand why Le Clan holds a Michelin star. The precision, creativity, & balance in every dish reflect a chef & team who work seamlessly together. The service was polished yet warm, making the entire evening feel refined without being pretentious.
This was more than just dinner, it was a true culinary journey. Le Clan delivers an exceptional experience that lives up to its reputation, & I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for world-class dining.
The food was good, & the overall dining experience was enjoyable.
That said, the beverage pairing options were very poorly communicated. The distinction between'with alcohol' &'without alcohol' pairing is misleading.
When dining with others who selected the wine pairing, choosing the'without alcohol' option for the six-course menu automatically results in being automatically charged for a mocktail pairing, a detail that is neither listed nor explained on the menu.
The mocktail pairing costs $59, only $30 less than the full wine pairing, which was an unpleasant surprise for someone who reasonably expected to pay the advertised $119 menu price.
This could easily be avoided by clearly listing'mocktail pairing' as a separate option rather than treating it as the default alternative to alcohol (highly misleading).
I also reached out directly to share this feedback & received no response, which was disappointing for a restaurant of this caliber, hence the two-star rating.
This was probably the best meal I've ever had. The 6 course tasting plus wine pairing was perfect. The quality of the food, the beautiful presentation & the passionate & attentive service made this a beautiful evening.
Dinner at Le Clan was one of our highlights during our week in Quebec City. The interior is cosy, & the tastefully decorated room breathes class & calm. Acoustics were good despite the fact that all tables in our room were occupied. The service was that of what you can expect in a gastronomic restaurant; pertinent, personal & with great attention to details.
We went for the 6 course & I chose the wine pairing & my partner went for the mocktail pairing which were both a lovely exploration, original & well-balanced.
The food was exquisite, each dish crafted with such care, with locally sourced ingredients of the highest quality. We love the fact that the chef works with small producers & works with seasonal & super fresh ingredients. Each dish was a piece of art in itself, a candy for the eye & feast on the palate. If you want a gastronomic experience in Quebec you can really go eyes closed here!!
Wonderful experience for six-course dining, would give 4.5 stars. Smoked sturgeon was a star, veal had one piece seasoned & cooked perfectly & one piece a little bland/tough. Wine pairing was very good. Unique way to experience local quisine & ingredients.
The food was wonderful & the wine pairings were superb & we would have been happy with just that, but the warm & enthusiastic service made the whole experience truly special. Thank you to the whole team at Le Clan for a beautiful & memorable evening!
We were highly excited to try this restaurant since our previous trip to Quebec City last May. Last night we felt lucky to be able to be served without a reservation ( we just arrived from Maine). We
Selected the 6 course tasting menu with wine pairings. The food itself was beautifully crafted & very tasty! The artic chard was my favorite of all. The service was extremely fragmented & unorganized. Our original server (Julian) was enthusiastic & welcoming. He left before the first course was served & thereafter, we had different staff bring out the food. Wine pairings were not served timely together with the courses. Often waiting 10 minutes or more before the corresponding course was served. There was long waiting time between course. Other guests received little more attention & seemingly were given same server throughout their dining experience! The sommelier was supposed to be our server. She presented some of the wine pairings but not the food. She served three other tables in the same room with detail explanations of wine & food.
We had high expectations but left disappointed with the service!
