Many diners appreciate the generous table d'hôte options, which typically include soup, salad, a perfectly cooked steak, and popular desserts like profiteroles at a reasonable price point.

I came here on a Sunday evening to treat myself to a nice meal while visiting the city, & left impressed not only by the food but the service as well. I ordered the steak'table d'hôte' which included a soup, salad & dessert. The soup of the day was a cream of vegetable, it had a very rich taste & velvety texture. Then came their green salad with walnuts. The lettuce leaves were so fresh & buttery, & the walnuts were firm & fresh tasting. The dressing complemented it perfectly. However, the clear star of the show was the steak. It was juicy & perfectly seasoned, & the sauce was the perfect accompaniment for the steak & fries as it brought everything together. To finish off my meal, I upgraded my dessert to a crème brûlée (it's my favorite dessert - I just couldn't resist) & it was divine. I heard that perfect'crack' when I hit the top of the dessert with the back of my spoon. It was exactly what I expected it to be. The young man who was serving me was extremely polite & kind & gladly accomodated my requests.
To summarize, for the price you will get a high quality meal in a nice setting paired with attentive service.
Highly recommended.

Une formule steak-frites qui s'inspire par bonheur des restos L'Entrecôte de France. Leur sauce, presqu'aussi savoureuse que l'originale, & dont on garde le secret, fait les délices des connaisseurs. Le service & le charme de l'établissement font qu'on aurait souhaité des copies ailleurs au Québec. Longue vie à L'Entrecôte Saint-Jean!

I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I had the steak dinner. Even though I ate alone, the staff made me feel welcome & comfortable. It was the first steak I've had in a while & it was one of the best. The soup, sauce, steak & sugar pie were all delish.

Fun place but I'm sorry that was the most tasteless beef I've had for sometime. Perhaps I should've ordered one of those standard 3 different size beef orders. Maybe different cut I don't know. I ordered the one which arrived on top of fries, cheese curds & sauce/gravy. Thin small slices of some beef. Maybe best to stick with the main item beef selection.
