Since opening in 1983, its Paris and Geneva- inspired French style has been its trademark: steak, fries, and secret sauce.

Review Summary

L'entrecôte Saint-Jean is widely recognized as a classic destination in Old Quebec, offering a quintessential French bistro experience defined by its signature steak frites and flavorful mustard sauce. Many diners appreciate the generous table d'hôte menus which provide a well-rounded meal including soup, salad, steak, and desserts like profiteroles at a reasonable price point. While the atmosphere is frequently described as warm, cozy, and inviting, the attentive and professional service provided by the staff often enhances the overall dining experience. Although opinions on meat quality and consistency vary among patrons, the restaurant remains a popular tradition for visitors and locals alike who enjoy its nostalgic ambiance and reliable, straightforward culinary offerings.

Nothing let's you down, good steak, lots of frites, decent wine.

But none of the staff smiles.

It's as advertised. Nothing more.

I was so so lucky to be served by the truly exceptional Frederique.

Ate here just today as arranged by Taipan tours.
Soup was salty, Steak was bland & dessert was so-so. My husband ate salmon, nothing special about it. If you're with Taipan tours better to skip this French Dinner. I think there are better Restaurants nearby & lot's of other choices really.

Excellent poutine (with steak & curds) & local wine! The service was friendly & efficient too. The atmosphere was relaxing & it was easy to talk. Dessert was just the right size, especially after poutine.

J'adore ce resto mon préféré dans le vieux Québec 😀

Nous avons eu un service exemplaire de la part de Kathleen.

Tout était parfait ! Potage, salade, steak & frites avec la sauce maison.
Ainsi que le dessert.

Merci ! 😊

Joli restau, bien situé. Service vraiment attentionné & gentil. Steak tendre mais servi carrément noyé dans une sauce moutardée grasse. Frites fades & molles. Aucun légume. Salade peu appétissante avec vinaigrette un peu amère. Vraiment pas savoureuse. Soupe ok. Profiterole de niveau cafétéria. Je ne retournerai pas personnellement. Je préfère payer un peu plus cher & manger mieux.
