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.

Un milieu accueillant, chaleureux où on se sent tout de suite à l'aise. Nous avons été servi par Alexandre. Il est un As dans sa façon de parler aux gens & le King de l'entregent! Travail d'équipe qui vous fait vivre une expérience unique du début à la fin. Le menu 7 services est un incontournable. Nous avons pris aussi l'accord mets & vin: le choix fut judicieux. Vous serez agréablement surpris par la mémoire phénoménale d'Alexandre qui vous récite avec passion le contenu des plats & les détails de toute boisson, allant du vin au Champane en passant par toutes les gammes de toute liqueur ou autre. Stéphane & Marie-Josée. Expérience mémorable pour notre 30e anniversaire de rencontre. Merci à toute l'équipe.

Wow! This is a culinary journey that everyone (who can spare $300 for 2 for dinner) should experience. The wine pairing was world class & the presentation of each of the 9 courses was pure art. NOTE: to all BFs & husbands... you will be a romantic hero when you bring your special someone here. We could all use a mini vacation from Covid. GO HERE.
