The table side flambé is a timeless elegance at this quintessential restaurant in the old part of Quebec City. We ordered the Cesar salad, duck a la orange, flambé peaches, & Brazilian coffee to finish. All was wonderfully prepared table side.
Remy provided exceptional service making this celebratory meal memorable. From a Caesar salad made at the table to flambé steak then peaches it was fun & tasty.
We had the Caesar salad made at the table & Duck à l'orange, both delicious & a show. Cannot beat a flambé! Limited food options for picky kids but they made pasta with ragu which was perfect. Fantastic, fun & attentive staff.
went through this past summer, the experience was amazing,top tier service top tier food, & the price is pretty reasonable,, the drinks were expensive, the Caesar salad was on another level of greatness, & as you can see the shrimp cocktail was just phenomenal, we had the filet mignon & also the snow crab, I cannot recommend this place enough can't wait to go back
The Caesar Salad was amazing. Rack of lamb was tender & delicious & the seared fois gras was excellent. A wonderful night out for a special occasion or just because.
Le filet mignon en boîte fond dans la bouche littéralement. La salade César est exquise. Le service est 5 étoiles. Tout est 5 étoiles. Le serveur d'une grande gentillesse & est fidèle au poste depuis 35 ans. Expérience incroyable !
Our meal was delicious! From the table side made Caesar salad to our Chateaubriand for two, everything was top notch. The staff was so friendly & welcoming. We truly enjoyed everything!
Great service. Our server was funny & friendly. BEST Caesar salad I've ever had (regardless of the visual / performative aspect). The Dijon mustard & fresh garlic makes the sauce bright & refreshing, & the candied bacon is just a spectacular touch. Foie gras was slightly fishy, & needed a touch more salt. The shrimp was good, very buttery. Wish the garlic was a bit more robust, & any kind of herbs to balance out the oily flavor. Overall very good food (As an avid home baker I have more details about the Black Forest cake below) it had the perfect amount of sugar - So much better than any xake in the US I didn't get enough of the maraschino cherry syrup / kirsch (alcohol) flavor in the cake. It's moist & nice texture wise, which is great. The whipped cream is a bit too dull / weak to support what's going on w the cake. It needed a bit more cherries. Overall, extremely well done food & a great experience. I'd come back in the future when visiting Quebec!
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.
