Nous étions 2 adultes & 2 ados & avons passé une excellente soirée hier à l'Entrecôte. Point de vue service, notre serveur était très attentionné & courtois. On a même remarqué ceci dans sa façon d'interagir avec une dame assise à côté de nous. Ma fille a eu un saignement de nez important & nous sommes restées un moment à la salle de toilette. Notre serveur a mis nos plats au réchaud & lorsque je suis remontée pour demander pour de la glasse, il m'a aidé rapidement. La nourriture était excellente. Du potage au dessert...délicieux. Nos steaks étaient cuits comme nous les avions demandés & ils étaient tendres. Le vin québécois a bien accompagné notre repas. Un grand merci!

Quelle belle surprise. Pour le prix de la formule du midi j'avais un peu peur. À 30$ le steak de 9 oz avec frites, potage ou salade & profiteroles en dessert, c'est vraiment incroyable. Service très agréable & déco typique d'un bistro parisien. Je recommande vivement.

J'ai commandé un steak medium-saignant, j'ai eu un steak blue. Les frites ne sont pas fameuses non plus. Perso, je ne recommande pas

7oz steak Table d'hote $43, you can choose fries, salad or cooked vegetables. I had $42 duck confit (2 pieces) Table d'hote. It's not on the menu (I just had to ask). Fresh salad. Attentive service. It's a bit noisy in the restaurant, but good atmosphere. 15%-18% & 22% tipping option on credit card machine.

This amazing restaurent is in my opinion, the heart of Quebec! We were greeted with love & we felt so special & taken in as a family, we felt welcome 🤗. The food was really « Québécois « 😂. At first I was confused about the special sauce but then when the first drop of sauces came into my mouth..... I knew I belonged in that very restaurant. I ordered the steak & it wasn't a failure. For sure this restaurant is my first stop when I get to Quebec City! I swear to god, THIS IS IT!!🤤🤤🤤🤤
