So many good things to say!! Food was superb, had the set menu the chicken drumlets were AMAZING!! The local charquterie board was great too. The timing of the service was perfect allowing each course to be finished before bringing the next with the wait staff being attentive but not constantly interrupting conversation... she was great too. The steak was perfectly cooked for my main course the house sauce very similar to a Bernaise & delicious even the side salad was dressed perfectly so fresh & lite, my wife had the pasta & yet again sauce was light creamy & portion size was perfect. Last I was introduced to Quebecs sugar pie!!!! Oh my God that's good again perfectly portioned & delicious 😋
After driving 7 hours to Quebec & then checking in to our hotel I could not have had a better meal, it was delicious.
If I had to offer any advice for improving it would be tough but if pushed maybe slightly more comfortable seating hard chairs are hard on old bones... that's really being nit picky though.... Overall great food, well priced, clean, with attentive but not obtrusive service in a light not pretentious friendly environment. I will be back!
