Le Clocher Penché

LCP set the bar really high for our culinary experience in Quebec City! It was our first night in Quebec & it didn't fail us from start to end. The service was attentive. The food was great throughout -highlights included fresh oysters topped with a refreshing granita, snowcrab with scallop & chanterelle, portchetta with blood pudding, polenta with duck ham.

Despite short selections of desserts, the creativity remained high....Maple flan+ nuts crust was a nice surprise. The size of Creme Brulee + banana cake was probably the biggest we have had for years.....

Their cocktails were also refreshing & the sweet wine was just right.

It made our first night in Quebec City very memorable.

I celebrated my birthday dinner at Le Clocher Penché, & it was a truly special experience. Though the main dining room was full, we were seated in the Red Room-a sleek, intimate space usually reserved for private events-which made the evening feel even more intimate. The service was attentive, the ambiance effortlessly chic, & the cocktails expertly crafted. The food was great from start to finish-highlights included the house-made bread & butter, fresh oysters topped with a refreshing granita, & the standout favorite: the gnocchi. A perfect spot for a memorable, special-occasion meal in Quebec City.

The food here is never short of amazing. Every time I visit Quebec, I always make a trip to Clocher Penché. The Oysters here are an absolute must - some of the freshest & tastiest I've ever had! The beef cheek & scallops were divine as well.

The food was AMAZEBALLS. We enjoyed all the dishes & drinks we ordered, especially the delectable cod & the fowl. The cod was cooked to perfection & the sauce was plenty & so flavorful, complimenting the vegetables well. & the fowl was crispy on the skin but still so juicy inside with a rich sauce. All the food was not only presented beautifully, but also used fresh local ingredients. Their cocktails were also refreshing, with fun creative recipes. Additionally, the server was warm & welcoming, & the interior/ambiance was cute. (Sort of rustic chic?) The selection on the dessert menu was small, however, so we didn't get any there.

A memorable dinner in Quebec. The food was fresh, locally sourced & perfectly executed. The menu is varied & every dish has its own unique combination of flavours. Livia went above & beyond to give us the most impeccable dining experience. Prices are very reasonable given the quality & handwork that goes into every dish. Would recommend this to anyone looking to have a gourmet fine dining experience in Quebec.

Lovely dinner at Clocher Penché- atmosphere is lovely, quaint & modern bistro feel. Great oysters & lovely fish entrée. Staff were friendly & attentive. Food was really fresh & tasty- only downside are the chairs of the low top tables are not very comfortable ! Otherwise, the experience was very positive.

absolutely delicious & hoping to return again soon after our first experience. drinks were great. I really enjoyed the strawberry cocktail, it was a bit spicy & very delicious. as an app, we had the fresh cheese & bread. fresh cheese with the duck & artichoke was a heavenly bite. the beef dish was incredible & will be dreamt of for a while - smoky & delectable. the pasta dish was a nice, fresh & acidic contrast. the desserts left a bit more to be desired after the complex dishes prior but good nonetheless. the service was friendly & attentive. I really enjoyed my experience & can't wait to return.

We read about this restaurant in a local review on "up & coming" places & it turned out to be the best meal during our three-week visit to Quebec. The PEI oysters were so fresh & delicious they put our previous samplings to shame. The scallops were large but tender & sweet, topped with daikon radish & a light sauce. The cod was tender & mild. The crême brulee lacked the dense texture I'd prefer, but the flavor was amazing. The yeast rolls were sublime & the Greek wine just perfect. The service was friendly & accommodating. It was also our most expensive meal, but worth every penny!
