I consider this to be my favorite restaurant in Québec. Service & interior design are very nice. More importantly the food came out quickly & was of excellent quality. I highly recommend the côte de porc & the pouding chômeur. Le boudin noir was also great.

The best food we ever had while visiting Quebec since the food was better than expected especially the black pudding. The maple pouding chomeur (bacon bread pudding) was a delicious way to end the meal & also worth getting again. Overall, the restaurant is so good to the point that is worth going again.

Food was pretty weak for the cost. Everything arrived cold from coffee to food. I ordered the healthy breakfast & it was 20 dollars for 1 poached egg on an English muffin, a small amount of cottage cheese & a meager amount of fruit. Some of the dishes our group ordered were tasty (the country duo wasn't bad), but everything was cold & in general we were pretty underwhelmed. It's a huge place, though, so if you need to get into somewhere with a hearty breakfast on a Saturday or Sunday morning, you'll likely be able to get in pretty quickly.
