Une formule steak-frites qui s'inspire par bonheur des restos L'Entrecôte de France. Leur sauce, presqu'aussi savoureuse que l'originale, & dont on garde le secret, fait les délices des connaisseurs. Le service & le charme de l'établissement font qu'on aurait souhaité des copies ailleurs au Québec. Longue vie à L'Entrecôte Saint-Jean!

I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I had the steak dinner. Even though I ate alone, the staff made me feel welcome & comfortable. It was the first steak I've had in a while & it was one of the best. The soup, sauce, steak & sugar pie were all delish.

Fun place but I'm sorry that was the most tasteless beef I've had for sometime. Perhaps I should've ordered one of those standard 3 different size beef orders. Maybe different cut I don't know. I ordered the one which arrived on top of fries, cheese curds & sauce/gravy. Thin small slices of some beef. Maybe best to stick with the main item beef selection.

Jeudi pm sans réservation durant le carnaval de Québec nous avons réussis a avoir une table pour 3.

Table d'hôte a partir de 43$, cuisson tel que commandé, frite croustillantes non graisseuses avec une petite sauce.

Potage du jour excellent ainsi que la petite salade.... sans oublier le dessert & café 😋😋😋😋

On mérite de se gâter quelques fois & c'est un endroit idéal

Nous avons adoré notre dîner ici. C'est rare de manger un steak d'une telle qualité : la viande était tendre, la cuisson respectée à la perfection & la sauce vraiment savoureuse. Le restaurant est magnifiquement décoré. C'était très pratique d'avoir une table de ce niveau juste à côté de notre hôtel. À tester absolument

Ate here on a very snowy night after Christmas. The restaurant was warm & accomodating, & the staff were very pleasant. We enjoyed a very relaxed meal of steak frites with a very savoury sauce, & shared a delicious slice of Sugar Pie.

The meal was very good value & the portions were excellent quality & very hearty. Highly recommended!

This was our last meal on this Québec City trip & it was a great way to cap the trip. Just a classic meal done right. I asked for it rare & it was exactly rare. & the sauce... wow! Definitely lives up to the hype.
