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.

Great food, service & vibe here. Like the staff here who has a strong sense of humor! Highly recommend the duck leg & salmon. Steak & fries is great too. Our waiter Roch was great giving us the tips of their favorites.

Le service était impeccable. Malheureusement le steak n'était pas très goûteux ni très tendre. J'aurais donné 3.5 si possible.

Food was amazing! Had the steak poutine & ribs. Service was meh. Server had an attitude dealing with us. Hovered over my shoulder when paying, questioning my tip amount. & then was rude with me after & was clearly talking to his colleagues about me. Turned an enjoyable evening sour.

This restuarant is an amazing value. The steaks are great & well priced. They offer a 4 course meal including a soup & salad with steak & then dessert & coffee for a very reasonable price. The salad was particularly good. Prices on the steak meals vary based on the size you get. You can order you steaks in either a 5,7, or 9 oz option. I really hope to return to this place.

Had high hopes for this place after a trip to Paris not to long ago. The only negative was the steak tasted of only char. Everything else was great. But when you go to a place for steak you expect it to be top notch.

J'aurais mis 5 étoiles parce que c'est excellent, mais compte tenu du prix relativement élevé (mais moins cher que beaucoup d'autres restos dans le vieux Québec), je me serais attendu à légèrement plus du restaurant. Ils ont réussi mon steak avec le niveau de cuisson "bleu" à la perfection.

Meilleur steak en ville 💗

The steak was decent, though it didn't compare to the renowned Le Relais Entrecôte chain. The service, however, was exceptional, with Mathew being especially cheerful & attentive to every detail.

The steak on the lunch special was perfect, as was the special itself
