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!

Best food I've had in Canada. Service amazing. I told them I was lactose intolerant & they gave me food on the menu I could eat. The steak & fries were stunning. Then the dessert a lactose free creme brulee was out of this world. Im not just saying that. It was. I will be back.

- Beau resto & bon service.
- Réservation à 17:30 & il n'y avait déjà plus de citron pour faire un amaretto sour.
- Il manquerait un petit légume dans l'assiette d'entrecôte (à la carte). Mais le steak était bon & les frites aussi.
- L'assiette de saumon est excellente. Rien à dire dessus c'était wow!
- Potage au carottes & moelleux au chocolat très bon, mais petites portions.

The steak was very good. My girlfriend ordered the duck salad which was underwhelming & needs a second look.

Romantic place to satisfy your french-style steak cravings in the old city. Service was very friendly & we never felt rushed throughout our dinner. We had a window seat with a smaller round table which was a bit tight, but the ledge made it work.

The gravy for the l'entrecôte poutine was really delicious, better than the l'entrecôte sauce. Their bread was also delicious but the packaged whipped butter didn't fit the rest of the restaurant aesthetic...

Reserved our table well in advance (>1 week). Attentive service & quality food at a reasonable price around the middle of the Old City. Ordered their Table D'Hôte du Soir & the steak frites were an obvious highlight. The accompanying salad tasted very fresh, while the soup was also decent. Good experience overall. Would recommend!

Cuisine ordinaire soupe qui n avait aucune saveur plutôt fade,steak trop cuit & qui a été attendri ce que je déteste cela me roule dans la bouche,sauce trop huileuse qui ne goûtait rien à vrai dire je n aurais pas su qu elle était à la moutarde ,salade la plus simple que j ai vu & les profiteroles 2 boules crème glacée dure comme de la roche à l intérieur du chou nappé sauce au chocolat qui ressemble à celle qu on achète à l épicerie pour les sundaes.Mon mari n a pas aimé non plus sauce fade sur son saumon & riz jasmin blanc avec rien d assaisonnement

After 4 years, it's still the same unforgettable steak experience. The food & ambience were excellent, & our waiter Marvin was truly one of the best servers we've encountered during our stay in Quebec City. If you're into steaks, this place should not be missed especially with their special sauce, which takes the meal to another level.'
