It wasn't my first time patronizing this restaurant, so my review & impressions are not just based on this most recent visit.

The customer service is always superb, & very attentive from start to end, no matter the size of the party & the demands imparted.

Their wine list/menu is superb & so encompassing, from glass offerings to whole bottles & limited grapes, too.

Their food menu is "traditionally French" but that's by no means a criticism, it's a highlight if anything. Most of the steaks are cooked side table, the Caesar salad is also prepared side table, & so are some/most of the desserts.

If you're looking for an exceptional meal & evening out in Old Quebec - this is it, don't look any further or farther!

Le Continental is a charming old fashioned French Restaurant with modern day twist on old fashioned classics. If you want to be transported back in time when customer service still existed, then you have found your place. Not only is Le Continental aesthetically beautiful on the outside, but inside you will find old world charm & elegance from a long gone era while eating classic French Fare. We highly recommend you take the plunge & reserve a table to the way things used to be in the Grand Dame of Canadian Restaurants in the heart of Old Quebec. You won't go wrong with Le Continental. Enjoy! Zalis Family

A fine, classic French restaurant in a class far above the usual bistros that exist throughout old Quebec City. A very special restaurant for special occasions like our 52nd wedding anniversary!!
