Delicious meal full of the unique tastes of Quebec City from the amuse bouche to the dessert. Wine pairing was spot on. Service was spectacular every step of the way, an exceptional feat on such a busy night! What a New Year's Eve! 🥳🎉 Thank you!!!

OMG is the best phrase I can use to describe the food & service at Legende. This is world-class dining at its finest in Quebec City. Probably the best oysters on the planet. Be sure to try the five course fixed menu as it is their specialty & whatever other recommendations staff may make. The employees are really knowledgeable on the wine pairing choices, for example. 95 percent of the food is locally or regionally sourced & therefore fresh & tasty. Presentation & service were also impeccable. A little on the expensive side of course, but if you go easy on the wine, it can be reasonable. A once in a lifetime culinary opportunity for me. Highly recommended for foodies or just anybody who wants to enjoy superior dining.

Food was ok. The server was so not showing any enthusiasm at all, it was a total vibe killer. They served us champagne in a wine glass & when we asked for changing into a flute, the server seemed shocked & there was an awkward silence for a few seconds as if it's a weird request to have champagne served in a flute!! The server helpers who explained the food were a lot more helpful & cheerful when we interacted with them & asked them questions. The oysters don't really taste like oysters! They don't serve lime or lemon with them & they are just very spicy & unpleasant. Oysters must be sour in my opinion & when asked for lemon/lime, the server said they don't have anything "international" in their restaurant that's why they don't lemon/lime, while Ontario & Québec produce over 70% of Canada's total lime. Lol. *Overall very disappointed.

Had a wonderful evening sitting at the bar. Jean-François' hospitality is second to none. Great cocktails. Glorious wine list. Warm & welcoming staff. Food to match all of that. Will be back for more!

We have dined in other fine restaurants in Quebec, but our meal at the Légende was superior to all the others. The food was perfect: It was both delicious, beautifully presented & the portions were generous. The selection of wines to accompany the various courses was perfect. Thank you!! We'll be back.

We are from Mtl & I booked the Legende because I had a perfect experience last time I wanted my father in law & my mother in law to try it. Overall it was an amazing experience. The food was outstanding & the sommelier presenting the wine & the server presenting the food were super gentle, professional & passionate making the experience even better. However, the hostess gave a very bad first impression making people at the table to feel uncomfortable. I understand it was a complicated table with many restrictions for the menu degustation, however she could just suggest that the best option for us would be the a la carte. Instead she made uncomfortable comments about the restrictions/allergies of people in the table, such as you should first try instead of saying you don't like it. Maybe where you ate before was not well done. A bit offensive.

We had a marvelous time. Everyone was very attentive & worked as a well oiled team! We had the tasting menu. He had the wine pairing & she had the non-alcohol pairing. Both were amazing!

Two friends & I went to Legende for dinner recently. We must say that we had a lovely evening & indulged in the tasting menu - I would highly recommend. It left me feeling very satisfied but not so much so that I left feeling uncomfortable.

The cocktails & wine selection were excellent & the staff very helpful & made great efforts to speak to us English.

Near the end of the night an older woman & her son (or perhaps a yonger husband) were sat beside us. She was unfortunately one of those people who are never pleased. She complained porfousley when a dish she ordered was delivered "too late" for her liking (even though they requested their food arrive slower). She exclaimed on several occasions that no one would eat at 11 o'clock - even though she sat for dinner at 9:30pm. I must say the wait staff tried tirelessly to please her.

Again, great service even to those who did little to warrant it. If in Quebec City please check out!
