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.
Le Continental is much more than a great restaurant: it is an experience. In addition to the excellent food, its main attraction is watching how the flambé dishes are prepared right at your table. With more than 90 years of history, it preserves a tradition that few places maintain, with a team that perfectly masters the art of cooking & flambéing in elegant copper pans.
It does not have a Michelin star, nor does it need one. Its true strength is the service & the connection it creates with its guests. In our case, Carlos, a Chilean who now lives in Canada, took wonderful care of us & made us feel at home from the very first moment.
We ordered a Caesar salad prepared at the table, an excellent chateaubriand finished on the spot with a delicious mushroom sauce, accompanied by a young Pinot Noir that paired very well. To finish, the house crêpes with maple syrup were the perfect ending.
If you visit Quebec, Le Continental is not just an excellent option for dinner: it is a gastronomic spectacle that is absolutely worth experiencing.
We chose the Continental to celebrate our mutual birthdays, & we were seeking not just a great meal but an'Experience' & we were not disappointed. Denis made the meal great. We loved the Caesar Salad being made at the table, & it was delicious, & the Cherries Jubilee for dessert topped it all off. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great treat & experience in dining.
I have not had a meal like this since Le Bec Fin in Philadelphia closed in 2013. The made from scratch Caesar Salad for 2 made table side will bring me back to enjoying salad. The Lobster Newburg (not always available) prepared table side was surprisingly light but satiating. The lobster was caught fresh this morning. The Beef Wellington (a standard menu item) is mouthwatering. Oh, & the Strawberry Shortcake was divine. The team of servers was professional & skilled. This is not inaccessible French dining. The staff is kind, friendly & inviting. They also made a gluten free meal without missing a beat.

This place is the last of it's kind, & should be celebrated for what it is.
We loved the idea, but had reserved ideas about the food, vs the experience of it all, which turned out to be completely unfounded.
It was a top notch food (8 nights eating at many top spots in town, & the food here was as good as any, & better value by portion size than most!)
Inredible service (ceasar salad was amazing & flambe diahes are must do)
The pomp & circumstance adds to it! Bourdain was right to be nostalgic about places like this, & we are all lucky it exists.
Seriously, go, get the Cesar, get at least one table side flamed dish, & get the maple pie!
If you are lucky enough to visit during lobster season (around May/June) the lobster is top, & the portions are heavy!
Le Continental is an institution in Quebec City. We were delighted with our 🍽? meal. The Châteaubriand for 2 with mushroom sauce was fantastic! & the Caesar Salad 🥗 dressing made fresh at the table was delicious 😋! Make a reservation & try this restaurant if you're ever in Quebec City.
Restaurant français présent dans le Vieux-Québec depuis près de 70 ans. Vous y aller pour la gastronomie, le service & le savoir faire des serveurs. Le seul restaurant du Vieux-Québec qui font des flambés à la table. Réservation nécessaire. Nous avons été accueilli de façon attentionné. Pour débuter, un cocktail spritz excellent. Suivi d'une salade César préparer à la table. Pour continuer, un chateaubriand flambé également à la table de façon impeccable avec cuisson parfaite. Les desserts, un gâteau forêt noir & une cassata au Grand Marnier pour terminer ce repas copieux & sans faute. Mention spéciale à notre serveur Hugo qui a été attentif & nous a offert tout un spectacle
Absolutely the best service & meal in Quebec City!! We had a fun time with our waiter/chef. The table side ceasar salad is not to be missed!!! The lobster bisque was spectacular. Our mains were lovely- scallops & sole. Dessert light & chocolate forward.
Fantastic service, staff were very professional, prompt & attentive. We started with a Caesars salad made at the table, shrimp cocktail & a lobster bisque. The main was the veal medallion & Sirloin Sirloin steak, served with vegetables. Sirloin was cooked to perfection (medium rare) & the veal medallion were very tender.
Quelle belle expérience. Service impeccable & superbe ambiance. Le repas préparé à la table par Denis ( salade césar & filet mignon) fut exceptionnel. Un restaurant reconnu & recommandé. À ne pas manquer. 5 étoiles *****
