About

Founded in 1978 by Jacques Fortier and Jean-Luc Boulay, Le Saint-Amour has become an iconic institution in Quebec City, embodying the influence of Quebec gastronomy. Offering haute French cuisine inspired by exceptional regional products, renowned chef Jean-Luc Boulay and his team combine traditional know-how and modern techniques to pay tribute to local producers and offer a gourmet, refined and unique gastronomic experience.

Le Saint-Amour is ranked among the top 10 favourite fine dining restaurants in Canada by travellers, according to TripAdvisor (2014, 2015, 2016 and 2020 Travellers' Choice Awards). Our wine cellar , housing over 15,000 carefully selected bottles, is also among the top 10 wine selections in Canada, with prestigious vintages from all over the world. Over the years, we have had the honour of welcoming renowned celebrities, such as Sir Paul McCartney, Sting, Alicia Keys, Johnny Hallyday, Charles Aznavour, and many others, who have chosen Le Saint-Amour during their stay in Quebec City.

Le Saint-Amour was awarded 4 stars by the prestigious Debeur Guide and was crowned Restaurant of the Year in 2011. This recognition is in addition to the many distinctions received by Chef Jean-Luc Boulay : Chevalier de l'Ordre national du Québec in 2024, the highest honorary distinction awarded by the Quebec government, Maître Cuisinier de France, Officier de l'Ordre du Mérite Agricole de France medal, Governor General of Canada's Award for the Arts of the Table, as well as the Prix Hommage Renaud-Cyr. Also recognized for his dedication to passing on his knowledge, Chef Boulay shares his passion with new generations, notably as a permanent judge on the show Les Chefs! , broadcast on Radio-Canada since 2010 and with 13 seasons to date.

An essential address in Old Quebec for local gastronomes and gourmet travelers, Le Saint-Amour embodies excellence and the quest for a culinary experience that is both surprising and unforgettable on a daily basis.

What an experience! We tried the seven-course Blind Menu with wine pairing. Every each dish was absolutely delicious, not to mention beautifully presented. Great ambiance & very friendly staff- they took the time to explain each dish/wine & answered any questions we had. Highly recommend this place for a romantic night out:)

Nous avons réservé quelques jours à l'avance en semaine pour 17:30. Comme nous avions un spectacle d'humour au Petit Champlain, nous avions informé notre serveur dédié que nous devions quitter pour 20:00. Le service a été excellent & très rapide. Côté bouffe, le fois gras était très bon mais le biscuit du dessous n'était pas nécessaire. Les riz de veau avec homard était sublime. Ma conjointe a choisi le cerf qui était aussi excellent. On a apprécié les mises en bouche, les huîtres, qui nous ont été servis gracieusement avant le repas. Bref, très bon resto avec une belle ambiance. Nous aurions toutefois préféré être assis dans la section plus au fond du resto, histoire de profiter du plafond de verre. Le prix est par ailleurs élevé par rapport à la portion somme toute insuffisante pour moi. Le prix élevé est possiblement en lien avec la notoriété issue de l'émission de télé Les Chefs. Nous recommandons toutefois ce resto.
