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.
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.
I picked this place because it had Dover Sole on its menu, I had no idea of the experience we were about have... I loved it! We were in QC for the night & I called around 3:30 for an 8 pm reservation. I loved the atmosphere, exactly what you would expect for an old school vibe. Table side service is rare nowadays & it brought back fond memories. All the staff were men, following old school hierarchy roles. Very efficient & well coordinated. Our main server Andreas from Milan was charming & he knew it, lol. Well played sir, well played. The bread course was nice. The Caesar salad was nice & tangy, well balanced. My Dover Sole was beautiful. My partners Filet Mignon was gorgeous. The rice, potatoes, carrots & asparagus were all on point. For dessert... the raspberry sorbet was perfect & crème brûlée was divine. After a week of eating at restaurants... including Maison Boulud...this was my favourite meal. I will be there again next time I visit Quebec City.
What a delightful experience. Really wanted an authentic french dining experience while visiting Old Quebec for a few days with my sister. Le Continental was all that I hoped for & so much more. Our waiter Denis was attentive but not over bearing or rushed. We had a reservation for 2 at 1700 & felt we got the best seat in house. Our Caesar salad was prepared tableside & the experience was very cool. Denis explained as he blended the dressing, it was definitely not your average salad. We also had escargot which was also amazing, not overly garlicky just right. For my entree I had the shrimp flambe & it was amazing not including the table side show which was also fun. Shrimps were succulant & presented beautifully. My sister had the Sirloin flambe & it was cooked as she ordered to perfection, with a table side show in tandem while Denis cooked my shrimp. & even if you don't usually have dessert you'll be amazed at the the cherries jubilee if you love cherries. Just amazing in every aspect of dining. Do yourself a favor & splurge at Le Continental while in Old Quebec, you will only regret it if you don't do it. Thank you, Denis & Le Continental.

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.
The place is very nice with a very unique performance. Every worker here are very friendly with talents. There are selections on the menu that cooks right in front of us including the steak, seafood, & Caesar salad. Many employees are bilingual & communicates very well. The food is amazing as well with many selections. The steak is well cooked, & the seafood are so fresh. Definitely recommend everyone who is gonna be visiting Old City of Quebec
Made reservations from the advice of a friend. Just a great experience. Started with very good cocktails & Canadian lobster as an appetizer (excellent). Then had flambé steak prepared tableside. Not only a great experience & entertaining but the food was outstanding. They also do Caesar salad tableside but we thought it would be too much food. Highly recommend
The pictures I am sharing, are of my very first visit with my wife from February 17, 2024. My wife & I were beyond impressed with the phenomenal service we received. The evening had commenced with me forgetting to bring my reading glasses with me, making it difficult for me to read the menu. That is until our server brought me an assortment of extra reading glasses to remedy this self inflicted & embarrassing dilemma. From that moment on, the entire dining experiences was nothing short of fabulous. My wife's exact words were, "I will never eat another Caesar's salad as good as this". After that evening, my & I unanimously decided we needed to return for a repeat visit..... which was yesterday, June 29, 2024. & just like our first visit, yesterday's visit did not disappoint!!! Oh, & just for clarity, we are from Vaughan, Ontario, Canada. We definitely look forward to more visits in the future.
