Done from Montevideo, Uruguay, took a reservation for having a Christmas dinner three months before through their website. It run smoothly. They "charge" a small amount to the credit card so as to complete reservation same way car rentals, that they will only charge it if you don't assist. Dinner was outstanding, excellent service. We enjoy having Christmas dinner at Le Continental. I recommend it. It's not cheap but as something be told me once when I was young, a good dinner in a good restaurant will cost 100 per head everywhere in the world. Cheers
Hands down one of the best dining experiences we've had in a while. Everything from the service, drinks, food, & ambiance was amazing. Can highly recommend the Ceasar salad & escargot to start, & the filet & Dover sole for entrees. Everything was delicious & perfectly cooked. Cant recommend this place enough & definitely want to return in the future.

Ce restaurant propose des classiques de la cuisine française, exécutés avec un savoir-faire remarquable. La cuisson aux tables ajoutent beaucoup à l'expérience. Le Continental offre une expérience unique à Québec. Je le recommande fortement.
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.
The premier dining experience in Quebec City. Gorgeous restaurant with classic decor. The service staff in white tuxedos is highly attentive without being intrusive & cook many of the dishes at table side. The food was superb & the wine pairings were perfect. Highly recommend.
October 18, 2024. I've eaten here every time I have come to Quebec City since 2015. The staff is always highly trained, professional, & effective. This time I had the escargot & filet mignon both dishes were prepared to perfection. Highly recommended.
Le repas était succulent & les crêpes suzettes sont délicieuses. Je vous recommande chaudement l'entrecôte ainsi que la salade césar. Tout est fait & cuisiné devant vous à la table, ce qui ajoute à l'ambiance. Mention spéciale pour l'excellent service de Brian.
The dinner was excellent. We were seated upstairs which lacked a little of the ambiance of the main dining room. All the food was first class. It is a little weird to recommend the Caesar salad as the top recommendation but it was very good. Staff was polite, timely, & provided excellent service. Highly recommend to anyone traveling to Quebec.
We have a wonderful dinner. It was a dinner & a show with the table side preparations of the Caesar Salad, Steaks & Baked Alaska. Food was on point. I especially appreciated our server, Bryan. He was professional yet friendly. Others were stuffy. This is not my preference when out. Highly recommend.
