Nous sommes allés à ce resto suite à une recommandation d'un ami. Tout d'abord, l'accueil; un super accueil avec le sourire & nous nous sommes tout de suite sentis comme des invités de marque. Le service, par Livia, fut exceptionnel. Elle a décrit le menu & ses plats avec professionnalisme & passion pour la bouffe. Ça se sentait. Une belle expérience culinaire. On recommande ce bistro lors d'un séjour à Québec.

A wonderful experience. Our server was knowledgeable & attentive. The food was excellent-thoughtfully crafted with fresh & delicious ingredients. We had the oysters, moussaka & homemade pasta & all of them were superb. Great music, beautiful atmosphere, cozy & convivial. Highly recommend. Note that the expense per person includes two mains, one shared dessert (crème brûlée-excellent) 2 high-quality beers & a glass of pinot noir plus tip.

My spouse & I had dinner at le Clocher Penché during a quick Quebec City getaway. The room & atmosphere was amazing - cool vibe, & very warm & inviting. We were greeted warmly & sat at a fantastic corner where we had privacy but were also part of the room.

Our sever, Vincent was fabulous - professional, courteous, friendly, helpful - the consummate partner in our dining experience. The food was fantastic - amazing flavours & choices. I recommend that you speak to your server & have them provide recommendations - you won't regret it. Vincent even recommended a wine for us that we wouldn't have picked on our own & it was delicious. Merci Vincent - d'avoir rendu notre soirée & notre repas si spéciaux!

I highly recommend this restaurant.

Cozy restaurant with incredible food. We recommend making a reservation in advanced. We were greeted by friendly staff who spoke great English upon arrival. Throughout the night, our server was attentive & the pace of our orders was spaced out perfectly. We decided to give blood pudding a try & it was absolutely flavourful & the highlight of the night! We also got the deep fried maitake to start. For our mains, we ordered the fish of the day (cod) as well as the hanger steak. Every bite was delicious & ingredients were intentionally chosen. They switch up their menus & ingredients slightly for each dish seasonally so be sure to make note of that.

Thank you for a great first night in QC!
