We had the Onion soup , a perfect mix of layers, melted cheese on top of a soft toast, a generous amount of onions in the perfect broth. Then we had an amazing bisque with lobster, prawns & scalops in a delicious creamy sauce. Highly recommend!

We went here at New Year's Eve! I ordered the duck but I liked the pork chop more, which my partner ordered. We ended up practically, switching food because she likes the duck more. :)) we both had IPA beers which pairs well with the food. We were with a couple of our friends & they ordered the ribs & pork chop. The ribs were delicious but I really would recommended the pork chop more. The service is also spot on. The place & the washroom are really clean & smell nice. I would definitely go back to eat here again.

I do not recommend this restaurant. Their policies are inadequate, & they fail to provide any meaningful accommodation for families.

For context seeing the owners reply (it was a sandwich for a child). Not a great policy, please do better in the future for others. If a sandwich will make your restaurant fail you have other issues to resolve.

After a long day wandering through the charming streets of Quartier Petit Champlain, the cold had settled into my bones. Even through my gloves, I could feel the crisp winter air biting at my fingers. The streets were alive with crowds - both locals & tourists - weaving through the cobblestone lanes, laughter echoing off the heritage buildings. I loved everything about Quebec City: its warmth, its beauty, & the way it seems to glow in the winter light.

On our way back to the hotel, my friend picked a restaurant known for its famous pork dishes - & they absolutely delivered. The pork chop arrived with a slight pinkish hue, perfectly cooked, tender, & unbelievably flavorful. It didn't taste like anything I'd ever had before. The beef tartare was just as impressive - fresh, vibrant, & beautifully balanced.

The place itself was buzzing. Stylish & full of energy, it attracted a mix of locals & travelers, yet everyone seemed to fit effortlessly into the ambience, like characters in a well-written novel. Even the restroom setup caught me by surprise - it was gender neutral, & for a moment, I thought I had wandered into the wrong side! 😋

The staff were friendly, professional, & impressively bilingual. Their upbeat energy kept the atmosphere lively, & my cocktail - only about $9 - was delicious & well made.

After a full day of exploring, we devoured every dish that came our way. Everything from the service to the setting to the food itself felt perfectly in sync. Highly, highly recommend! 🥰

WE LOVE IT! Came back twice during our trip to Quebec. Every time their service & food was top notch.
I highly recommend their Gourmand au Caramel Salé latte! The milk is so creamy & it's not overly sweet is just perfect balance.

They have a large selection of items in their menu so honestly anyone could find something they will like, even if you're vegetarian or have dietary restrictions.

They have an amazing system & you can tell! From the moment you arrive there's someone that will assign you to a table or will tell you the wait time depending on how crowded it is. & it doesn't matter how many people there are the food always gets to your table in a timely manner & your server is always looking out if you need something or making sure everything is good.

We came in for dinner, few adults & kids & also came back for breakfast on a different day

The atmosphere is very cozy
The service is super quick & the staff are very nice

There were kid friendly menu options that the kids seem to enjoy very much

Dinner 4/5
I ordered
Beef tartare which was fresh & well seasoned,also comes in a nice size portion

Ceaser salad with grilled chicken - the salad itself was nice ,I was a bit thrown off by the fact that the chicken was cold though but that might be just my personal preference

Washed it all down with the Bloody mary ( it has a different name on the menu but for the life of me I can't remember)- the cocktail comes with this bacon wrapped sosage that was very yummy , the tomato blend is tasty but was a bit light on the alcohol portion in my opinion

Breakfast/Brunch 5/5
We ordered different combos & everyone enjoyed everything!
I ordered
Eggs Benedict with duck confie , side of crispy bacon,side of crape & a Berry smoothie
The crape was delicious as is ,no need to even put maple on it
The eggs- perfectly made & I like that you can order 1 or 2 eggs. This allowed me to be able to taste more sides because ordered 1 egg.
The apple butter is delicious
The smoothie was super fresh as well
Very recommend for brunck/breakfast.Have some patiance, gets very bussy in the morning

Un gros boff!!! Service qui laisse à désirer, le serveur me demande si j'ai aimé le repas & je lui dis'pas vraiment, mais bon c'est correct!' il me répond'good' & passe à autre chose! Linguines aux fruits de mer les plus décevantes que j'ai mangées, rien de frais... Sauce crémeuse?? Loin d'être le cas. À 30$ l'assiette, je m'attendais à plus. Je recommande plutôt d'aller au Sapristi tout près.
