My husband & I booked a table here during our honeymoon at the recommendation of a co-worker of mine. It was the coolest dining experience we have ever had. Right from the second we walked up to the door we received the best service we have ever had a a restaurant. The man at the host desk was very kind & entertained my sub par (at best) French, joking that he appreciated the effort & would continue to speak to me in French so I could practice. Our server came to the table & right away asked if we would prefer French or English. We started with the Caesar salad for two as our appetizer. It was assembled right at the table, with our server explaining every ingredient as he mixed it in. It was a very large portion & was phenomenal. Next we both decided on the peppercorn strip loin as our mains. It was such a cool experience to have the steak cooked in front of us, & of course the flambé piece was quite the show. The side dish was asparagus, roasted potatoes & diced carrots in a cream sauce. They were all good but nothing special, the steak was definitely the star of the show. All of the staff was interactive & attentive. At no point did either of our water glasses or other drinks get empty before they were refilled or we were asked if we would like another. My husband had beer & I started with a cosmopolitan, & had a glass of Pinot noir with my main. The staff were very knowledgeable regarding drink options & flavour profiles when it came to pairing a wine with the food options. For dessert we got the crème brûlée to share which was just as amazing as everything else. We would 100% return to this restaurant & recommend it to anyone looking for a one of a kind type of dining experience.

What a delightful experience. Really wanted an authentic french dining experience while visiting Old Quebec for a few days with my sister. Le Continental was all that I hoped for & so much more. Our waiter Denis was attentive but not over bearing or rushed. We had a reservation for 2 at 1700 & felt we got the best seat in house. Our Caesar salad was prepared tableside & the experience was very cool. Denis explained as he blended the dressing, it was definitely not your average salad. We also had escargot which was also amazing, not overly garlicky just right. For my entree I had the shrimp flambe & it was amazing not including the table side show which was also fun. Shrimps were succulant & presented beautifully. My sister had the Sirloin flambe & it was cooked as she ordered to perfection, with a table side show in tandem while Denis cooked my shrimp. & even if you don't usually have dessert you'll be amazed at the the cherries jubilee if you love cherries. Just amazing in every aspect of dining. Do yourself a favor & splurge at Le Continental while in Old Quebec, you will only regret it if you don't do it. Thank you, Denis & Le Continental.

A staple in Quebec, beautiful place, located in the middle of old Quebec by the chateau Frontenac, with traditionnal french food with great waiters & service. A bit pricey but well worth it.

I loved the experience. Table side French dining, & awesome customer service. I originally saw this restaurant watching Anthony Bourdain on'No Reservations'. The complexity of simplicity in food makes me want to come back for more.

Thoroughly old-school classic French restaurant. No complaints about the food, but we were upsold on the potatoes dauphinoise option; were told no potatoes came with chateaubriand, but they did, so we had a lot of potatoes

We never miss Le Continental on our many trips to QC. With the many many restaurants in the old city to choose from, this is our favorite. If you enjoy top-notch French cuisine this is your best bet in Quebec City.
