Aujourd'hui commence le FEC. Comment vivre cela sans une bouchée au Cloché Penché. Une visite te fera le grand bien. Qualité repas accueil avec un soupçon de royauté. Ici on vous offre le Québec, c'est bien entendu au-delà du culinaire...

The space is beautiful, the servers are friendly & attentive, & the cocktails were wonderfully balanced (almost dangerously good!). The homemade bread & butter were delicious, & I'm glad we ordered them since none of the dishes we chose came with carbs. For example, we ordered the beef tartare & beef tongue, both of which we thought would have been even better with a carb accompaniment.

For our main, we had been looking forward to trying the fish of the day, but unfortunately it wasn't available when we visited. Since the restaurant is on the Michelin Guide, we came in with high expectations, so that was a little disappointing. The only other protein option was pork belly, which we weren't in the mood for. Overall, the meal had excellent qualities & we enjoyed the experience!

We come here every time we're in town. The scallop crudo, the bread, & lion's mane were just okay. The fish & the beef tongue special were great!

Best beef tartare I've ever had! The food was great. It was really hot in the restaurant though - today was a really warm & humid day & the AC wasn't doing much... I had a bit of heat stroke... But otherwise it's good! Will come back when it's cooler for sure :)
