The a la Carte menu was good. Steak, salad, soup & bread for $35 (195g). Shareable size. Sangria Blanche was ok. Couldn't taste the alcohol. The Expresso martini was great. Overall 7/10.

Service was excellent & the entrecote Saint-Jean did not disappoint. A unique & delicious mustard-based sauce is served on the steak. It is not overpowering & adds great flavor to the dish. 5 stars for service & 5 stars for food.

Bonjour, je tiens à faire ma critique de ma visite. Nous avons pris la table d'hôtes.
1- le potage au navet & panait: plutôt délicieux mais j'aurais aimé avoir une texture un peu plus épaisse. 7.5/10
2- la salade.. désolant, je regrette avoir mit cela dans mon corps, ce fut un gaspillage xe l'espace précieux de mon estomac. Il manquerais par exemple du parmesan ou concombre peut être pour ajouter de la profondeur au saveur de cette salade 1/10
3- steak frites 6/10 j'aurais aimé avoir une coupe d'avantage tendre mais tout aussi gouteux, les frites était correctes
4- le dessert omg! Profiteroles avec crème glacée à la vanille dedans & énormément de coulis au chocolat! WOW! UN MÉCHANT BON DELICE! j'ai adoré le dessert c'était riche & goûteux pas trop trop sucré mais juste assez. Soyez fier 9/10
5- café il était ordinaire mais bon 7.8/10
Somme toute, c'était une belle expérience à prix raisonnable ?

Excellent service ! Nous avons pris la table d'hôte ! La soupe était bonne la salade avec la laitue bodton cest vraiment pas tres winner niveau texture & la vinaigrettes manquait un peu de saveur pour ce qui est des Steak il en avait un quil avait manquer la cuisson mais le serveur s'en est vite aperçu ! Le steak est sans assaisonnement par contre je trouve ça un peu fade mais la sauce vient rééquilibrer le tout un peu!

If you're looking for the best steakhouse in Quebec City, L'Entrecôte Saint-Jean is an absolute gem! My family & I visited on a recommendation, & from the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for something special.

Despite being walk-ins, the host found us a table right away, even with our toddler in tow. The staff was exceptionally kind, making us feel welcome & comfortable. Our server, Rodolfo, was outstanding—he provided impeccable service, balancing efficiency with genuine warmth.

As for the food—perfection! ? Their signature steak with legendary sauce is what makes this place iconic, & the Table d’Hôte is not just affordable but absolutely divine. Every bite was a taste of authentic French bistro excellence, & it's clear why this restaurant stays so busy!

If you’re in Old Quebec, do yourself a favor—go to L'Entrecôte Saint-Jean! 10/10, highly recommended! ?
