Par où commencer? (English will follow) Notre expérience au restaurant gastronomique Le Clan de Québec a été absolument extraordinaire. Nous avons choisi le menu 6 services, qui s'est en réalité transformé en un somptueux festin de 8 services, grâce aux délicieuses mises en bouche. Chaque plat était magnifiquement conçu & s'accompagnait d'un accord mets & vins du Clan, composé de vins de terroir nichés, spécialement choisis pour sublimer chaque bouchée. Le service a été impeccable du début à la fin. Le personnel a su s'adapter aux préférences de chacun de nous, rendant l'expérience encore plus personnelle & mémorable. L'attention portée aux détails & l'effort pour offrir une expérience unique se sont fait sentir à chaque instant. Parmi les plats dégustés, l'assiette "souvenir de Salluit" a été le point culminant de la soirée. C'est probablement la meilleure assiette que j'ai jamais mangée. Elle était non seulement un délice pour les papilles, mais aussi un voyage émotionnel. Pour quelqu'un qui a grandi près de la mer, cette assiette évoque des souvenirs d'enfance à travers ses parfums marins & ses saveurs authentiques. Nous avons également eu la chance de déguster le plus petit concombre du monde, une curiosité qui témoigne de l'attention minutieuse portée à chaque ingrédient. Chaque plat était un chef-d'oeuvre à part entière, mais une mention spéciale doit être faite pour la pintade, qui était absolument divine, ainsi que pour l'inoubliable assiette de Salluit. En résumé, Le Clan est plus qu'un simple restaurant, c'est une véritable expérience gastronomique. Si vous cherchez à vivre un moment exceptionnel, où chaque détail est soigneusement orchestré pour créer une symphonie de saveurs, ne cherchez pas plus loin. Un grand merci à toute l'équipe du Clan pour cette soirée qui restera gravée dans nos mémoires. ______________________________ English Where to start? Our experience at the gastronomic restaurant Le Clan in Québec was absolutely extraordinary. We chose the 6-course menu, which turned into a sumptuous 8-course feast thanks to the delightful amuse-bouches. Each dish was beautifully crafted & paired with wines from the Clan's selection, featuring niche terroir wines specially chosen to enhance every bite. The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff adapted to each of our preferences, making the experience even more personal & memorable. The attention to detail & the effort to provide a unique experience were evident at every moment. Among the dishes we enjoyed, the "Souvenir de Salluit" plate was the highlight of the evening. It's probably the best dish I've ever had. It was not only a delight for the taste buds but also an emotional journey. For someone who grew up near the sea, this dish evokes childhood memories through its authentic marine aromas & flavors. We also had the chance to taste the world's smallest cucumber, a curiosity that reflects the meticulous attention given to each ingredient. Every dish was a masterpiece in its own right, but special mention must go to the guinea fowl, which was absolutely divine, as well as the unforgettable "Souvenir de Salluit" plate. In summary, Le Clan is more than just a restaurant; it's a true gastronomic experience. If you're looking to enjoy an exceptional moment where every detail is carefully orchestrated to create a symphony of flavors, look no further. A big thank you to the entire Clan team for an evening that will remain etched in our memories.
We were walking in old Québec & fell upon this place by coincidence. A customer was leaving & highly recommended it which prompted us to enter. We were welcomed right away although it was already late. The kitchen was in full view downstairs, but when we went upstairs the rooms were beautiful with a romantic atmosphere. We had the four-course service menu, which was an incredible culinary experience, which they tailored to our restrictions (e.g., I don't eat mammals). The food was both inspired by, & produced by, the surrounding region. I also had the wine pairing which was perfect. Our waiter was also very knowledgeable, & explained every dish & wine tasting, which was truly part of this culinary experience. For the quality of this restaurant, the prices were more than fair. We usually don't write reviews, but we were surprised that this restaurant did not appear first on websites' list of recommendations, which prompted us to write this excellent review. If you're looking for a wonderful culinary experience with an exotic ambiance, you will not be disappointed.
Wonderful evening! We highly recommend the tasting menu with wine pairings! One of us ordered the four course meal, & the other ordered the six course, & the staff was vary gracious in dividing the two extra courses (& wine pairings) so we could both try everything. A highlight of our visit to Quebec!

My husband, sister & I came here as part of a food & wine pairing tour & loved the sampling we got so much that we decided to go for dinner the following day. Stephanie, the manager & sommelier, was able to get us in even though they were short-staffed. She recommended the 6-course dinner to get a small sampling of a variety of dishes. It was absolutely amazing. Each dish was a work of art & a culmination of so many delicious flavors. This was the best dinner & experience we've ever had. Stephanie was amazing, making sure that we were always taken care of & that we were enjoying ourselves & the food. She recommended a local wine which was also delicious with the food. Thank you Stephanie & the entire staff at Le Clan for an unforgettable experience. We all highly recommend this restaurant for an experience that is unlike any other.
Discovered Le Clan on a top restaurant list & loved the focus on local ingredients (where each product comes from). Upon arrival, you immediately get a glimpse of the kitchen which was really cool. The dining area is upstairs, making you feel like you are walking into a private club - like you are part of the clan. We debated between the four & six course preset menu & ultimately went with the six. Glad we made the decision as our two favourites would not have been part of the four. Did not do the wine pairing, opted to pick our own bottle as I don't enjoy very many types of wine. We also started with a couple cocktails (old fashioned & a dirty Martini) & both were very good. Every dish was amazing. Cooked perfectly, well balanced, with a lot of ingredients we had never had before (ie seal & algae). With that said, none were intimidating & all were thoroughly explained by our server. The service from Johnathan & the rest of the staff was top notch - they were very attentive & made us feel comfortable the whole time. We had new utensils for every dish, plates were cleared away, wine glasses filled before new dishes came out etc. Attention to detail was obvious. Would highly recommend Restaurant Le Clan & will try to come back during another visit to Quebec City. PS. Make sure you try out the cool bathrooms.
What an incredible experience! Everyone who works here is passionate about the culinary experience they're delivering. Our server was also the Sommelier, & although we didn't get the wine pairing, I listened in on her storytelling several times; she was lovely. We got the six course tasting & a bottle of wine, & it was a joy. I love the concept of the restaurant, I felt like I learnt more about my country through that experience than a day in a museum & I tried several things I had never had before. I won't share any photos until this review has sufficiently aged, so as not to spoil the surprise! Thank you for the amazing dinner! 10/10 would recommend!
Best fine dining French restaurant we've been to in a while. Must do the pre-fixe. Each course better than last. Service is bar none, everyone is treated like royalty. Wine pairing is spot on.
Incredible experience at Le Clan. Amazing food, well curated, balanced 6-course dinner... delicious cocktails & great wine selection... then there's the quaint yet sophisticated, warm ambiance. & impeccable service. Mathew was the best server... so attentive & knowledgeable & clearly passionate about the chef, the food, & their story. Highly recommend!
