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.

Dès notre arrivée, tout dans ce restaurant respirait l'élégance & le raffinement. L'ambiance était chaleureuse, la décoration magnifique, & la musique créait une atmosphère parfaite pour la soirée.

La nourriture était tout simplement exceptionnelle, chaque plat était savoureux, soigneusement présenté & préparé avec une attention remarquable.

Mais ce qui a vraiment rendu l'expérience unique, c'est le service. Notre serveur était incroyablement bien informé, passionné & captivant. Il nous a expliqué les vins & les ingrédients avec une richesse de détails & une touche de storytelling qui ont transformé le repas en véritable voyage culinaire.

Ce n'était pas seulement un souper, c'était une expérience mémorable. J'y retournerai sans hésiter. ❤?Je recommande vivement à tous ceux qui cherchent une sortie raffinée & marquante.

Un'grand' restaurant qui vaut le détour... Tout est réuni ici pour passer un moment inoubliable ! Le décor est remarquable & à nul autre pareil, un jardin romantique à l'intérieur, c'est féérique !
Quand au plaisir des papilles, le chef français & sa brigade vous régalent de l'entrée au dessert ;-) sans oublier un très bon accueil & un service irréprochable. Un peu plus cher que la moyenne mais complètement justifié, c'est une cuisine à la fois gastronomique & généreuse. Nous avons adoré !

A Birthday Full of Surprises at Le Saint-Amour
Our experience at Le Saint-Amour was pure magic from start to finish. To celebrate my husband's birthday, I had requested a special card to be placed at the table - & they went above & beyond.
They brought the card hidden under a silver cloche, just like a fine dish. My husband thought they were serving him a course… but when he lifted the cover, he found a heartfelt birthday note instead. It was such a sweet, unforgettable surprise that made us both smile.
The food was extraordinary - every dish beautifully crafted & bursting with flavor. The service was flawless: warm, attentive, & full of small touches that made the evening feel truly personal.
Le Saint-Amour didn't just serve us dinner; they gave us a memory we'll cherish forever. Thank you for making his birthday so special

Wow! What a dining experience! My boyfriend & I went in not knowing what to expect. But from the very first bite of our two appetizers to the very last bite of our desserts, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal from their winter menu. Everyone was pleasant & polite & the overall ambiance made our dinner that much more enjoyable. We loved the oysters & caviar, the Foie Gras experience, Halibut fillet, & rack of lamb. A great date night spot & overall dinner spot for people of all ages. If you get a chance to visit Quebec City, this is a must! Also a heads-up, be prepared to spend at least 2 hours here, as is the norm with any fine dining place.
