So when people talk about Michelin star or fine dining... this is that. We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing & it was truly exceptional probably the best fine dining experience I've had outside of a NYC.
& it was the only place I can remember that was this consistent -- where each dish was great or better. Like'I'd like to have this again soon good' vs'Oh that was interesting' or'I think someone probably liked that but it wasn't for me'. Just'this is really really good & I think anyone would like it'.
It helped that most of the plates had 2-3 things that paired extremely well together. & the wine actually worked extremely well with the food (we got the Legende pairing which is the cheap one).
I will say that, while the food is elevated, the place is not fussy. There was a lady sitting by the herself at the bar, there were lots of couples & people laughing.
If you're in QC this is a must try. When we went ~17:30 there we seats at the bar so you might be able to get in without a reservation?
Every single bite was special, & the best carrot (!) I've eaten in my sixty years of eating carrots (many at excellent restaurants). If you want an extraordinary meal in Quebec City, this is the place. BUT where the restaurant really shines is in its staff. The wait staff is attentive & knowledgeable & downright joyful about the food- I truly believed there was nothing they'd rather be doing. Also, the wine pairing completely on point & each wine complex & deep & delicious.
There are not enough stars to rate our chef's table experience. The blind tasting was everything I hoped for & more. Service was impeccable & attentive. Every single bite we ate was delicious, the chef's explanations were fascinating. We chose the mocktail & Legende wine paring. The mocktails were innovative, the bartender came to explain each drink as it was served. The sommelier explained each wine pairing. It was fun to taste each dish with both the wine & mocktail. Legende is a beautiful restaurant, creatively designed for a wonderful experience. The kitchen staff & chef smiled throughout our dinner, seeing the kitchen staff work together was impressive. The kitchen is immaculate, pride in work shows with every detail.
This was a splurge dinner experience that we will not forget.
Fantastic meal. The focus on local, sustainable ingredients was amazing & we tried many new ingredients that we had never heard of before. The scallop with uni broth was amazing & the wine pairing delivered.
This was my second time celebrating my birthday at Légende & both times were exceptional. The service from all staff is personalized & you can tell they are extremely knowledgeable. The tasting menu is a must & will impress you with the work the chef & his team put in. The wine pairing matches each plates & brings up the flavor to another level. The renovation done this year elevated the ambiance which reminded us of the unique, pure & elegant vibe from the Restaurant El Rincón de Juan Carlos in Tenerife. Thank you so much for making this experience memorable. We will come back for sure to celebrate my birthday a 3rd time.
We had a terrific experience at Légende. The atmosphere is wonderful. It is understated & really allowed us to focus on the food & the service. Everyone on the staff were so attentive & welcoming, & were great at explaining everything. We didn't always catch the explanation at the beginning of every course, & they were glad to answer our questions afterwards.
We decided to sit at the bar, which we thought was great because we could have more face to face contact with the staff who were serving us. It felt like a more personal experience than looking up at the staff from table seats.
We both had the Tasting Menu, which was really fun, as we had no idea what to expect next. For us, everything was delicious. I had the Légende wine pairing, while my wife had the non-alcohol pairing; the non-alcohol drinks were amazing & I would definitely recommend them to anyone not having liquor.
We truly enjoyed our time at Légende as it made for a very special experience for us.
Such an amazing restaurant & experience! We made a reservation weeks ahead of time so we got seated pretty quick. Did the tasting menu (7 food items) & wine pairing. Each food was delicious & so unique in flavor. The servers explained each dish & wine eloquently. We got an extra item & talking time with the sous chef when they heard we were celebrating our honeymoon. Very kind staff all around. Would highly recommend this experience!
