Wow, it was very special. We had the tasting menu. My only fault was the table we were sitting at near reception area & on top of the table next to us. Poor table placement. I'm surprise COVID didn't alter your table key out. I made my reservation a month ago & to get such a poor table is of concern.

From the moment we stepped into the restaurant we were greeted with the most spectacular service from everyone. Every dish served on the tasting menu was delicious but the tortellini & most interesting dessert of goats milk & ginger ice cream was a standout!

Sat at the counter & enjoyed the "blind" tasting menu. along with the wine pairings. All the dishes were very good, but was a little disappointed to find that every single one was on the a la carte menu, as well. Part of the fun of a tasting menu is to experience items not normally available on the menu, or to be surprised by something unexpected.

Had their famous tasting menu, everything was very good, only one little suggestion: Could you please turn up the lights just a little bit? at least enough to see my food. I mean, I literally had to use the flashlight on my phone to see my dishes.. :D

First time visiting Quebec & on our first night we enjoyed an amazing meal at Légende par la Tanière. The six course tasting menu was amazing! The wait staff was engaging, attentive, accommodating & extremely polite. The food was fresh & interestingly prepared. Each bite was an explosion of flavors, beautifully prepared & lovely to look at from the first bite to the dessert. What a lovely culinary experience overall.

Exceptional experience - from the service to the food, Legende lives up to its name! We had the tasting menu with wine pairing - having eaten at many of the best restaurants in Canada & several Michelin starred international restaurants we can confidently say that Legende measures up against the best of them. Great job!

AMAZING food! Inventive dishes~ was very surprised... so surprised that I had to order their Tomato dish twice... & that's with a course tasting menu. Menu changes seasonally, so you can have different culinary experiences. Lots of their dishes uses vegetable & herbal powders & oils that are made in house, so it's very appealing to the senses. Not from around the area, but already planning a trip just so I can eat here again.

We had an incredible meal that was perfectly matched with the service of the team there! The tasting menu brought us one fantastic sampling after another & the wine pairings couldn't have been any better, with a few unexpected surprises. Big thanks to Chris & Oliver & the rest of the team!
