Wow! My husband & I ate dinner here one night. The server was so nice & attentive. We had the warm goat cheese appetizer & it was great. I had the wagyu steak & it was incredible. My husband had the duck leg confit & loved it. For dessert I had the Tonka bean creme brulee & it's the best creme brulee I've ever had. 10/10 & highly recommend.

We had a late seating & toward the end of the meal, some of the staff left their shifts & it reduced the attentiveness at the table side as the focus seemed to be on wind down practices for end of service.

Return visit... decor & ambiance excellent . Extremely busy evening .. wished a table on the terrace which was accommodated with a slight delay . Service attentive until after appetizers.. then very long wait for main courses .. Veal dish served cold on a hot plate ... had to get up to find someone to help out .. dish was replaced with a different piece of veal (same plate).. but new piece of meat very tough .. did not eat ...
Was not charged for plate (appreciated this ..). Left with a somewhat disappointing feeling after many pleasant previous experiences..
Will try again - hopefully on an evening less busy ..

Excellent food & attentive service, high quality ingredients. Wonderful halibut, oysters & burrata. $60 bottle foe good Soave.

Off the beaten path = authentic fine dining, not touristy. We opted to sit outside on the nice terrasse as it was a beautiful night for BD celebration. We will return.

This was our first trip to Quebec City. I spent a lot of time online researching restaurants in the area, eventually choosing L'Echaude. All of the staff were outstanding & were very attentive to make sure our dog had enough water. The food was outstanding! We will definitely return when in the area.

My first meal in Quebec city, & it was superb! I had a glass of Sauvignon Blanc that pairs well w/ creamed mushroom soup - the smoked scallops were the star of this dish but the lobster was a perfect portion to get a few bites with each spoonful. Their classic beef tartare is not to be missed! Perfect amount of brininess to balance the exceptional beef. My dessert of a pistachio & mascarpone cake with orange blossoms/raspberry sorbet was consumed embarrassingly fast - it was lovely. My subsequent meals in this gastronomic city have a lot to live up to! Thank you to my kind server who was gracious & attentive, but allowed me time to enjoy my meal as I perused my many photos of sightseeing on my phone.

Beautiful menu with extensive wine list. The ambiance is great & the restaurant is not overcharged with tables which give the customer sufficient space.
Attentive welcoming staff. Serving staff lost a bit of continuity towards the end but it does not take anything away from the beautiful evening we had.

We had an enjoyable dinner with friends. The service was attentive & helpful. The charcuterie plate appetizer was nice for sampling with four people. The duck confit was excellent, & ample in portion size. The rabbit dish was unusual - the meat was very, very soft - maybe cooked via the sous vide method (?) - so not to everyone's taste - but the accompanying carrots were delicious. The salmon tartare was also excellent. The wine list was extensive. We would be happy to dine there again on our next trip to Quebec City.
