Le Continental est largement reconnu comme une destination gastronomique de premier plan à Québec, célébrée pour son élégance intemporelle et sa cuisine française classique. Les convives soulignent fréquemment l'atmosphère unique du vieux monde et la préparation exceptionnelle des plats devant la table, tels que la salade César signature, divers steaks flambés et les crêpes Suzette, qui offrent un spectacle culinaire captivant et mémorable. Le personnel est constamment décrit comme étant professionnel, attentionné et compétent, contribuant à un niveau de service élevé qui permet à de nombreux clients de se sentir privilégiés lors de leur visite. Bien que l'expérience soit souvent notée comme un investissement important, la plupart des visiteurs considèrent que la combinaison d'une cuisine de haute qualité, d'un service expert et d'un charme nostalgique justifie largement le coût pour des occasions spéciales ou pour vivre une expérience gastronomique incontournable.
Excellent service, personnel attentionné même en cette période de l'année très achalandée. L'entrecôte flambée à la moutarde de Meaux & Dijon était très bonne. Nous avons également bien aimé les crêpes Suzette en dessert. Le service au guéridon permet d'apprécier pleinement l'expérience de ce restaurant.
Had my dinner on December 30th here. Great restaurant on the sophisticated side. Ordered salmon fillet & it was amazing. Enjoyed the food. The staff for friendly but somewhat cold or distant. I felt rushed to finish my food & leave. Didn't have an appetizer or dessert & paid just about $80.
Wonderful dinner for my family & me. The wellington beef is my favourite, delicious! Very fancy & elegant atmosphere. Winter clothes will be taken into a closet before we dine in which is very considerate. The price was worth the service & food. The waiter has a welcoming smile, he cooked the shrimp & it was amazing. He is very cheerful & even recommended us his favourite dessert. Everything was excellent except for the red wine, it was a little bit dry but it is affordable so it's okay. We are very happy & enjoyed the meal. Delightful experience

We have had many wonderful meals in beautiful Quebec City over the past week, but last night's meal at Le Continental was as close to perfection as it gets. From the warm & inviting elegant ambience to the attentive & professional staff, it could not be better. The food was fabulous. We had the chateaubriand for 2 & the steak was cooked at our table. The accompanying dauphinois potatoes , spinach, asparagus & carrots were superb. My husband started with oysters & I had the turnip soup (delicious). Dessert was sorbet & also the maple & pecan cake. The food was beautifully prepared, hot, & truly the best meal we have had in a long time. I felt the prices were very fair. All in all, a wonderful evening. Thank you to all who served us. Special thanks to the chef & to two of our servers, Hugo & Mathieu.
Superbe experience au Continental, cuisine & service a la hauteur de nos attentes. Bon vin & un dessert exquis !!!!! Un restaurant qui vaut le detour dans la ville de Quebec.
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.
Personnel affable & serviable. Carte de vins impressionnante & les prix sont à l'avenant. Le crabe sauce hollandaise comme entrée est décevant. Aucune saveur. Par contre, la pièce de viande servie était cuite à souhait & délicieuse. Comme dessert, les crêpes Suzette sont un must.
One of the best dining experience ever. Our waiter, Nicholas, was very nice & knowledgeable. The food was fantastic & cooked right at our desk. My wife & I celebrated an anniversary dinner. We had escargot & pate for appetizers. For the main course we ordered the filet & shrimp which they split between us. We finished the night with the crepes for dessert. Absolutely amazing experience.
I just can say it was a so-so experience dining here, but there are a few things I would like to mention: For food: 1. I ordered a side dish of lobster tail. It was extremely salty & didn't seem very fresh. 2. The orange duck was overly sweet. 3. The foie gras was cold when served. I expected it to be a hot dish, wasn't it? The steak was overdone (I ordered medium-well). For service: 1. The waiter kept talking with the guests seated near us while preparing our food. I'm not complaining-it's part of the service-but I felt it wasn't very hygienic to talk over the food. 2. The date I went to the restaurant was my father's birthday. I left a note when booking the table online, & they kindly prepared a candle on the dessert I ordered. Overall, I'm quite disappointed with the experience. It wasn't what I expected based on the reviews I read. However, this is just my experience. I wanted to share it for those considering this restaurant in Old Quebec City.
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.
