Truly a restaurant worthy of a star. Each course was well prepared & thought out. Can definitely taste the freshness of the locally sourced ingredients. The mocktail pairings were excellent. Highly recommend!

This place is top-notch! The food & service are absolutely high-end.

I visited during dinner service when they had just opened. The staff greeted me warmly & offered to remove my jackets. Let me describe the ambiance. The aesthetics & design are earthy & creative, featuring a blend of real plants & fake ones, along with a striking wall decor.

The bathroom is also speakeasy-style, clean, & intimate. The dim lighting & the design of the walls created a cozy atmosphere. I appreciated the clean towels folded neatly to dry my hands.

Now, let's talk about the food. The presentation, flavors, textures, & aesthetics of each dish were simply exceptional.

I opted for the mussels, second dish was ravioli that one of the ingredients was charcoal & shiitake mushrooms. It was a unique & artistic creation. The staff took great care of me, changing my plates, napkins, & communicating with me, & providing detailed explanations about each dish. Jeff was great!

However, my dessert was the highlight of the experience. The dessert cake was made with shiitake mushrooms, & it was absolutely amazing.

I highly recommend this restaurant for an unforgettable dining experience, exceptional food, & memorable moments.

Un restaurant gastronomique de très bonne qualité.

Des plats variés, avec des ingrédients originaux, parfois un brin trop sophistiqués mais avec un bon équilibre entre le plaisir gustatif & la surprise.

Le service est impeccable, familier tout en restant professionnel, & on sent que le personnel s'entend bien. L'ambiance tamisée, dans une salle très peu bruyante.

Seul bémol, on se serait éventuellement passé de ces quelques tableaux imposants de très mauvais goût, présentant des femmes dévêtues dans des postures lascives d'un autre temps.

Was so impressed with the menu of hyper local food in the dead of winter- made me excited to come back in another season & see what those ingredients inspire! The wine pairings were particularly joyous, we got the Legende pairing & there was so much variety & such fun interplay with the food. Charming people too.

(Ate here a while back) Took my girlfriend here for her birthday. This was an incredible experience & well worth the money. The food was incredible, interesting, intricate, & filled us with a curiosity & excitement that we had never felt towards food. The service was incredible, too. The staff took their time to explain all the ingredients & flavors . It was our first fine dining experience & we couldn't be happier. The only issue was the main course which featured raw deer (or maybe it was lamb?). My cut was significantly tougher & chewier than my girlfriend's. Felt almost like a medium well piece of steak. Almost immediately upon leaving the restaurant, I had the worst stomach ache & experienced firsthand the scarcity of public restrooms in Quebec City. Despite all the great things, it seemed they were careless in a very crucial area of preparation.

This is our 5th time here & we will come back for sure! The ingredients, the flavour exploration, the taste journey, etc. Everything was tasty & fun to discover. Bravo for the warm & friendly service too! C'est notre 5e fois & va revenir c'est certain! Les ingrédients du Québec, l'exploration de saveurs parfois même inusitées où inattendus, le petit storytelling tout au long du parcours, l'ambiance chaleureuse & le service attentionné mais également chaleureux & sympathique en font un resto destination. Bravo pour la créativité culinaire & l'expérience.

While every meal we had in Quebec City was good in its own way, Legende was outstanding, truly in a class of its own. There were 4 people in our party. Each of us ordered 2 plates, plus shared a dozen oysters & dessert. The bison, carrots & artichokes were absolute standouts, but all dishes were carefully crafted with a complex combination of mostly locally regional ingredients. We finished with ice cider & a pear cake with ginger ice cream. The chef, kitchen & all the staff take great pride in their work & it shows!! Thank you Legende for a special evening.

Perhaps our palate was not accustomed to the ingredients of the 6 course tasting menu. For the $$$$$ price, this was disappointing to us. The portions were small, but getting all 6 courses, we left with appetites satiated. The bread & broth were good, as was the dessert; the rest of the courses, for the most part, had pleasant, savory flavors, but nothing stood out as excellent. The least favorite, which we ate little of, was the bison & a root vegetable. It tasted good, & appeared appropriately prepared, but both the bison & the root vegetable was tough & hard to chew. The staff was very attentive, & sincerely seemed interested in our enjoying our meal. It was very difficult to understand their English, with such a heavy French accent, for my Southern U.S. ears; even after several semesters of French in college. The food was artfully arranged . . . Great presentation, you might say. I would recommend this to adventurous souls that enjoy experimental cooking/flavors that have a lot of extra cash to spend.

Great service & amazing food. We went for the 6-course menu, & everything is tasty with a balance of flavors. I can tell that the ingredients are of high quality - according to them, every ingredient is grown locally. One pf the best highlights of my trip in Quebec!
