L'Échaudé

Un incontournable lorsque vous allez à Québec. Tout était excellent. Le seul petit bémol est la quantité du vin au verre (5oz au lieu de 6oz) pour le prix demandé.

Excellent food & attentive staff. We showed up with a group of 10 without a reservation (we were very fortunate) & speaking different languages. The staff were patient, efficient & helpful. We hope to eat here again on a future visit.

Vraiment une belle expérience avec une excellente bouteille de vin demander conseils du sommelier pour l'accompagnement à votre soupe

Excellent bistro ! Un service décontracté & rigoureux . Une cuisine bien faite , efficace mais avec un seul bémol : mon croûton de chèvre chaud ... était tiède froid . Mais le goût y était !

En 2018, je dépensais facilement $500 & plus dans les restos par mois (entre $500-$800). Presque aucun resto de cette gamme depuis en 3-4 ans. Je me suis laissée tenter hier soir par la carte de l'Echaudée. J'ai pris la bisque de homard ($20), le boudin sauce foie gras ($29) & un verre de Chenin blanc ($12): je me fout des accords.
La bisque: 2 cuillères à soupe de bisque dans le fond du bol. (..) Le boudin: la sauce au foie gras tellement diluée que sans saveur ni texture: une infusion au foie gras serait plus juste. (Rires) & le verre de vin de 3 OZ, nulle part le format n'est mentionné: j'ai naïvement cru à un prix honnête. (Donc $20 pour un verre de 2018 de 5 oz) RIRES. 🙄
$83 au total avec un pourboire vraiment trop généreux pour le serveur à lunettes, fin trentaine/début quarantaine, froid, sans qualité humaine émotionnelle/relationnelle. Brrrr!
Au prix que demandent maintenant les restaurants moyens-hauts de gamme (& pour les quantités qu'ils nous accordent à ces prix) rien de devrait être décevant.
Je vais continuer de m'acheter les meilleures viandes, poissons fruits de mer chez mes spécialistes. 😋 Terminé pour moi les restos abusifs. Je les laisse aux touristes qui ne font pas vivre ces restos l'hiver!!!

Came on a Sunday evening with reservation made a day in advance. Decently located in a quiet & small street close to the old port. Had the option of outdoor or indoor seating, chose indoor dining room.

After reading many reviews of others raving about the goat cheese & duck confit, we ordered those alongside the pork & scallop dish. The goat cheese felt a little underwhelming & was relatively simple, had the creamy texture of goat cheese with what tasted like slightly seasoned tomato sauce.

The duck confit was had a very earthy flavor, especially when paired with the carrots & squash puree. I felt the dish had a very monotone-like flavor where many of the elements carried the same taste, not much new to expect with each bite. The scallops were done well, however the pork was a little on the drier side despite it being pork belly.

Overall, it was a little mediocre to me. Most of the flavors were pretty simple & I felt some of the dishes could have had more elements with different flavor profiles. No complaints with the service as waiters were nice & water was refilled regularly.

Great restaurant, stoped by before leaving Quebec, we mentioned we're a bit in a rush & the food came quick, everything we ordered (frog legs, duck confit, scallops & pork) was delicious, I'd defiantly recommend this place!

Sadly the duck confit skin was not crispy & the meat sadly was not fall of the bone or too tender. Had a lot better. The salmon tartare was delicious though. No extra anything for our wedding anniversary dinner.

Had a thirtieth wedding anniversary there last weekend. Worst meal, service, & ambience during a wonderful stay in a lovely city. Cold, indifferent welcome upon arrival, told we could keep the table for two hours which was not a problem for us. Proceeded to feel rushed through a celebratory meal. Lukewarm lobster bisque with not a morsel of lobster, fussy crouton with a carrot filled crouton which added nothing but fussiness to the taste. Bread arrived after the soup was served. Main course arrived right afterwards even though we had been quite clear with our waiter that we did not want to be rushed as my wife was still savoring her white wine. We explained to the young lady who brought the main course to take it back. Obviously our waiter & the kitchen were not communicating. When my wife ordered red wine & were ready for the main course, the dish that arrived was exactly the same dish that had been kept warmed. Dry beef & potatoes is a culinary faux-pas. The crème brûlée which we ordered was burned caramel, as you can see from the picture with a poor vacant presentation. & to top it off, upon departing, no thank you for coming. Poor experience from what is touted as a top restaurant in Quebec City.
