Légende is simply one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. I went last Saturday with my girlfriend, & we were not disappointed. We each had the tasting menu with the standard wine pairing, & I was blown away by the quality, craftsmanship, & passion behind every dish coming out of the kitchen. The service was warm & truly world-class.
I highly recommend that anyone visiting Quebec try La Légende. I'll definitely be back! Congratulations to the team on the Michelin star!
Truly exceptional. Worthy of their new Michelin star. Memorably proud of their Québécois food. No photos as the tasting menu is one to be surprised by. A restaurant to journey to.
Just an amazing evening at Legende! Alec & the team were fantastic explaining each dish & its components. We started with oysters which were delicious. Don't hesitate to go with the Tasting Menu. Every course (7 including the'pre-dessert') was outstanding with tremendous flavors. We really liked the brochure they provided after we were done to recap all that we had experienced (eaten). Can't recommend strongly enough! Their Michelin star is well-deserved!

Dining at Légende was an unforgettable experience. We chose the tasting menu & every course was beautifully prepared, creative, & absolutely delicious. The progression of flavors was thoughtful & exciting from start to finish. Service was excellent-knowledgeable & attentive without ever being overbearing. The wine pairings elevated the whole experience. Highly recommend Légende if you're looking for one of the best dining experiences in Québec City!
The 6-course tasting menu was great-beautifully presented & full of flavor. My favorite was the tomato & mussels dish. The service was also very good, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable!
The food at Legende was incredible! We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing. My favorite dish was the roasted tomato & the starter! We celebrated my birthday & I was pleasantly surprised to receive dried rose seasoning as a gift. Thank you for making this such a wonderful birthday!
LEGENDE - You win some, you lose some! Signing off a wonderful vacation with a disappointing Michelin 1* experience! Sigh!
Packed with some wonderful culinary experiences, spirit lifting vistas, sights & scenery & most of all, abundance of cherished loving, family bonding. My abbreviated food crawl during the past week has been most memorable & precious. Sadly, our last meal at the Michelin 1* Legende in Quebec City added an unexpected sour note to our otherwise splendid food crawl.
When dining out in upscale restaurants, one of the most despised things I dislike encountering is one that involves being charged a hefty price for the meal but still feeling hungry whilst paying the bill!
Do not get me wrong, the food at Legende was actually quite creative, unique, visually appealing, tasty & enjoyable. Although in some areas, the chefs were a bit heavy handed with the salt ( the tomato dish ). Sadly, a satisfactory end result was not fulfilled largely due to the miscalculation of the chef's overall menu creation & planning. IMHO, the prime reason & failure that causes the meal's demise of not achieving an acceptable quality/quantity/value ratio was not the use of uncommon & exotic ingredients but rather, the labour intensive elements & in some cases, the presence of overly redundant & irrelevant components which added to the complexity, required down sizing & hence an elevated cost component to the meal. Case in point, our impressive 8 course / $140 tasting menu at Montreal's Buillon Bilk was near flawless, sumptuous & a filling affair. Contrary, our 6 course / $ 135 offering at Legende was stingy & lacking in substance. Appetizer portions were midget one bite hors d'oeuvres size. However, the most absurd was the meat entree course featuring 4 thin slices of stingy, roughly 3oz in total, pieces of meat, gimmickily paired with a bowl of three sauces…..a couple of which are mediocre tasting & totally irrelevant! This is tantamount to trying to get full by eating a Shawarama but offered without the pita bread & vegetable/pickle condiments ... .only the bare-bone meat pieces garnished with Tahini & some Hummus were served!!
Our tasting menu offered the following courses:
6 East Coast Oysters topped with local Boreal condiments (optional $18 addition)
Hors d'oeuvres:
Wild rose & marigold potato
Crispy tuille, maitake mascarpone cream & Clos de Roches cheese
House made Tofu butter, fermented seaweed, smoked maplewood emulsion
Service & ambiance was great, as was the quality & creativity of the food. The only thing that docks it 1-star from an overall 5-star rating is the value.
We've been to many, many 1 Michelin star restaurants over the years, & had degustation menus at most of them, but the amount of food offered in your tasting was definitely too small for the price. Since the making of the sauces (which were all outstanding) & the assembly of the dishes are a significant portion of the cost, you should increase the size of a few of those dishes to provide better value.
In addition, while my wife appreciated you offering a non-alcoholic tasting to go with the meal, few of those drinks tasted great or matched with the food. So she felt you had good intentions, & clearly work went into making them, but ultimately they have to taste good & they have to match the food, & they missed the mark.
But every other aspect of the dinner was stellar, so overall very good; just missing the mark of fantastic.
