The food is delicious & the kitchen & all restaurant staff is very accommodating to dietary needs. My wife has celiac disease & is a vegetarian, the kitchen made her a unique entree & modified an appetizer & dessert to suite her needs. I highly recommend adding this place to your must visit restaurant list.

The food was excellent, & the staff was incredibly warm & welcoming. In a city like Quebec, where some restaurants can feel rushed or overly geared toward tourists, this place stood out for its thoughtful, personal touch. Despite the fast-paced nature of the area, I truly appreciated how the team here took their time & made the experience feel genuine & unrushed. The attention to detail & hospitality did not go unnoticed. Highly recommended.

Great experience at Le Clocher Penche. The food was good & they were able to accommodate our late reservation. Highlights for me are the pasta & rhubarb dessert. Would definitely recommend when coming to Quebec City.

This restaurant is outstanding. The food is so fresh, creatively prepared & delicious. The cod was served with fiddleheads, a seasonal vegetable I had never tried before & the dish was truly sensational. Our server Zacherie was so very helpful & went above & beyond to make our experience a treat. I highly recommend this restaurant. You won't be disappointed.

Had a lovely experience dining here with a friend! Mocktails are often an afterthought but not at Le Clocher Penché. The strawberry lemonade was divine. I had the rabiole which was fresh, crunchy & flavourful & the poisson d'arrivage which was a flaky cod with a delicious sauce. Highly recommend!
