The lion mane dish was good. I had wine by glass, but the portion was quite small- maybe 4 oz. Disappointing to say the leas. It took a while for the food to come out. Feeling unfulfilled, thereafter, I went to my favorite local restaurant, Girolle, which never fails to impress. Add photos & videos

A wonderful gem in the heart of Saint Roch. A little pricy but totally worth it, such an experience from beginning to end. The wait staff were absolutely amazing, so friendly & welcoming & at the same time top notch professional. Small bites but everything was delicious & beautifully presented, including the cute little cocktails. I wish I had more photos but we were too excited to try everything as it was served (except for the buckwheat endive salad & desserts which were a little weaker than the seafood plates). After explaining that we were sharing, we appreciated having the dishes come out in an appropriate order & the thorough explanations provided with each. This should be the goal post for any restaurant serving small portions at these price levels, & indeed we enjoyed this better than anything in Toronto. Would love to return next time I'm in Quebec City.

Delicious food in a nice atmosphere. The service took a little while, but once the server came & helped us, he was excellent. The desserts-we had the creme brûlée & the brownie-were good but not at the same caliber as the food. The mushroom steak, fish of the day, & pasta dish were all excellent. Cocktails were also outstanding.

This restaurant is exquisite. Each dish was fabulous & the service was top notch. Honestly one of the better meals my wife & I had in a while. Some stand out dishes.... The crab, the endive salad, the blood pudding, & the cheese. Do yourself a favor & go here.
