We had a fabulous dinner in Quebec City, best of our trip. Service & food were top Notch. We all three enjoyed are meals. The cherries jubilee is divine. A must visit when you are here. Highly recommended.
Truly a great experience from the outstanding food (& unique tableside flambe dishes) to excellent service (Guy was amazing) & a beautiful old world ambience. Highly recommended.
Wonderful experience. The food & wine were amazing, & the staff was friendly & attentive. Especially Andrea who convinced us to try his signature black tea flambe for dessert, which was SO good. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I recently dined at Le Continental, & it was an unforgettable experience, largely thanks to our server, Jean Yves. He was absolutely fantastic-charming, present, & attentive throughout the evening, enhancing our dining experience in every way. A delightful surprise of the evening was having our meal prepared tableside, transforming our dinner into a captivating performance with Jean Yves expertly leading the way. His skill & showmanship made the evening all the more special. We left not just satisfied with the food, but thoroughly impressed with the entire experience. Highly recommend!
Avec Andrea nous avons passé une superbe soirée: avec Andrea qui a fait cuire notre steak filet mignon, à la perfection & la salade César était la meilleure que nous avons mangé depuis au moins 5 ans. Il faut comprendre qu'il est vraiment fier!🌈 Avec Andréa, je mets l'étoile de fierté ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Je vous recommande le vin Cosmus, un élixir de plaisir! Andréa va vous le servir avec plaisir! Andrea est en train de me créer un nouveau thé. J'aimerais vraiment mettre 6 étoiles
After trying regional dishes - poutine, pouding chaumeur, cheeses, pates, wines, tortieres, pain au chocolate - at other eateries in Quebec City, my husband & I decided to splurge on a visit to the Continental, & we had a truly wonderful experience. We ordered chateaubriand which practically melted in the mouth & which was served with an array of well-prepared veggies. Accompanied by wine & ending with creme brulee & maple pie (the final regional dish on my list), this was a memorable meal. Not to mention the service. The service was personal, multi-faceted, & attentive. The wait staff are truly remarkable. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an excellent meal in Quebec City.
We were so impressed with our experience at Le Continental that we returned the very next night! On our first visit, we had the special Flambé duck, which was an absolute delight. The flavors were rich & perfectly balanced, & the tableside preparation added a unique touch to the evening. We couldn't resist coming back the next night to try the Flambé steak, but the duck remained the standout dish-it was truly exceptional. The Caesar salad was fresh & flavorful, & the sweets were the perfect ending to both meals. The service was top-notch, with the staff making us feel welcome & ensuring everything was flawless. Le Continental has certainly earned a special place in our hearts, & we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Quebec City! & when we travel again to Quebec City we know where to go from now.
Nous avons été très déçus du Continental, supposé être un grand classique au service impeccable. Notre réservation était seulement à 20h30, donc on s'attend à être dans la salle à manger principale en 2e tablée. Mais non, on nous a placé au 2e étage dans une salle privée qui n'a vraiment pas le même cachet qu'au rez-de-chaussée. Un autre groupe assez bruyant était déjà là. De plus, notre serveur en formation ne nous a pas recommandé les bons plats (& fait tomber une flûte de bière qui a littéralement explosé sur la table, mais ça, ça peut arriver). Le filet mignon était trop cuit & les plats recommandés ne faisaient pas de cuisson à la table, ce que nous aurions aimé voir. Les pétoncles géants n'étaient pas vraiment plus gros que d'habitude. Cependant, la bisque de homard, le gratin dauphinois & la salade césar étaient tous des plats très délicieux. Pour le prix de la facture, on s'attendait à plus.
