Mon conjoint & moi avons été éblouie par le menu créatif & haut en couleur de type'dégustations' 6 services offert par ce restaurant. Le menu est directement descendu des cieux. Les accords aromatiques dans le corps même des repas, ainsi que les agencements offerts avec les divers vins sont tous très recherchés & précisément impeccables. Notre souper en tête à tête s'est avéré prendre une tournure totalement différente qu'à l'habitude & ce, non seulement en raison des repas, mais aussi grâce au service des divers hôtes & hôtesses avec lesquels nous avons partagés notre soirée. Nous recommandons cette expérience non seulement aux épicuriens ou encore aux amateurs de produits locaux, mais d'autant plus aux amateurs de haute gastronomie. Littéralement de la haute voltige !! Merci beaucoup pour votre temps, votre travail & votre service. Grâce à vous, nous avons passé un moment de qualité. ❤?
Très belle visite dans ce restaurant qui propose un style de cuisine Boréale, c'est-à-dire de n'utiliser que des ingrédients cultivés sur le sol Québécois.
Nous avons choisi le menu de dégustation (6 services) avec pairage de vins'Légende'. Notez que le menu n'est pas révélé par avance (sauf si demandé), ce qui contribue à la surprise lors de la découverte de chaque plat.
Culinairement, l'expérience est sensationelle, avec une très belle maîtrise de l'acidité & une créativité étonnante dans le mélange des saveurs. On se laisse surprendre par des mariages de saveurs auxquelles on aurait jamais pensé mais qui nous ont tous séduit.
Le pairage de vin n'est pas en reste est a su sublimer & mettre en valeur les notes les plus subtiles.
Je recommande chaudement à tous les passionés de gastronomie
Service impeccable. Très belle variété de plats servis dans le menu 6 services. Je recommande fortement l'accord de mocktails qui était très original & délicieux. Le seul bémol est que ce soir-là une des tables était très bruyante, & en général le restaurant était très animé donc j'avais de la difficulté à entendre la description des plats lorsque ceux-ci étaient servis.
My partner & I decided to dine at Légende because it's part of Groupe La Tanière. One of their partner restaurants, L'Orygine, is our absolute favorite in the city.
It took an hour & a half to receive our food, & the waitstaff didn't appear particularly harried-there were plenty of empty tables. The dishes themselves were disappointing given what we've come to expect from Groupe La Tanière (I couldn't stomach one of the plates we received). We ordered vegan versions from the vegetarian menu, but compared to the exceptional vegan meals at L'Orygine, these just fell flat.
To top it off, I had some mild stomach upset the following day.
If you're seeking vegan/vegetarian food, I can only recommend L'Orygine.
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!
We had an amazing experience, & would highly recommend! You can tell that so much thought went into each dish. We got the mocktail pairing with the tasting menu & loved it! Our favourite dishes were the halibut, shallot tartlet & dessert!
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.
I highly recommend the dining experience at this restaurant. The service is impeccable, & the wine list is outstanding, featuring truly special labels. I had the pleasure of trying one of the best desserts I've had in a long time-the Champignon-an absolute delight.
The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between sophistication & a relaxed atmosphere. A well-deserved five-star experience! My only regret is living over 1,000 km away. If you're visiting Quebec, make sure to book a table-it's absolutely worth it!
