Le Continental est reconnu comme une institution culinaire classique à Québec, offrant une atmosphère raffinée et nostalgique qui transporte les convives dans une autre époque. De nombreux clients soulignent le service traditionnel unique, où le personnel expert prépare et flambe les plats directement à la table, créant une expérience à la fois mémorable et spectaculaire. Bien que le menu privilégie la cuisine française classique, le service impeccable, l'attention du personnel et le décor élégant contribuent régulièrement à faire des repas en famille ou en amoureux de véritables moments privilégiés. Bien que certains visiteurs aient noté que le rythme peut parfois sembler rapide ou traditionnel, la majorité salue la qualité constante des viandes, des fruits de mer et des desserts signatures, ce qui en fait une destination incontournable pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience gastronomique sophistiquée et interactive.
The entire experience was fantastic. The service was attentive, the food was delicious & we were made to feel so welcome from the moment we entered until the moment we left.
Wonderful service, very attentive without a hovering feeling. The attentiveness just seems to come naturally, though I would imagine there is a great deal of training to have it come off this way. The number of flambé dishes provided a nice show.

A wonderful fine dining experience. Wait staff are superb. Attentive, witty & experts at the table side flambé! A thoroughly enjoyable dinner in a Quebec institution.
It was our pleasure to dine at Le Continental on Thursday, 8 Sep at the strong recommendation by a good friend & lifetime resident from Quebec City. Visiting for our first time from Edmonton, Alberta, we were impressed by the welcoming greeting, accommodating seating, & attentive service. Denis, our server, prepared the Ceasar salad, Steak en boite, & Crepes Suzettes with great care & entertaining flame right at table side. Accompanied by an excellent French red wine from their extensive options, the entire meal was absolutely wonderful. We know our beef, & this was second to none, including to ensure it being cooked just right per request. As part of a 40 year marriage trip & celebration, it was the perfect place.
Merci, Denis & tout le monde at Le Continental. We look forward to future opportunity when in Quebec again. Hopefully soon!

Our waiter Brian was friendly, attentive & very professional. From our arrival & greeting by the maître d'hotel to our departure we were made to feel that they were there to make our evening memorable, & they did.
The escargots, lobster bisque were superb & watching the artistry of Brian making the Caesar salad was entertaining. He went on the explain the subtleties in taste of each ingredient from anchovy paste to red wine vinegar & everything in between & how each would affect the taste & when done each bite of the fresh crisp romaine with just enough dressing on each bite was a tasting adventure. Each morsel of our two main courses of grilled giant scallops & of whiskey flambé shrimp in a rich cream sauce which was prepared at the table side literally teased our taste buds & brought delight. The accompaniments of a pyramid of rice & asparagus tips & carrot Vichy complemented very well our main. The recommended white Sancerre wine blended well with both main courses. We ended our culinary adventure with a chocolate mousse & a generous slice of maple sugar pie both of which were rich in flavour. The Brazilian coffee with the caramelized sugar from a generous serving of flambé cognac, Tia Maria & an amazing generous flamed pouring of Grand Marnier was something to see prepared artistically at the table. Would we go again? In a heart beat. It was two & a half hours of culinary perfection & taste. Pierre & Karen, Ottawa.
Our waiter, Guy, was a great tableside chef & personality. We truly enjoyed his hot & attentiveness. Very knowledgeable as well. We will request him on our next visit.
