L’Entrecôte Saint-Jean a pignon sur rue en plein cœur du Vieux-Québec, un joyau du patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO, à quelques pas de la porte Saint-Jean. Le restaurant a ouvert ses portes en 1983, et la formule, d’origine française et inspirée du concept déjà existant à Paris et Genève, est demeurée la même depuis toutes ces années : l’entrecôte, ses frites et sa sauce secrète ! Avec ses murs de pierres, et sa terrasse en période estivale, notre bistro français vous promet une expérience chaleureuse… et savoureuse !

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
Ordered the entrecôte table d'hôte (7 oz was a very generous portion given it comes with soup salad & dessert). Service was really good. We were seated in the basement next to the wine cellar, cozy & quiet compared to the bustle of outdoors seating. Steak was not out of this world but the overall meal was good. Had to ask for extra sauce but that came promptly.
We had the steak frites combo & the steak frites didn't disappoint, it came with soup & tea but the real treat was the dessert. We had a nice server. Would recommend.

Food is delicious. Steak is cooked to perfection. We went here twice in three days & had the steak dinner that they are famous for - includes soup, salad, steak & homemade French fries, protiferoles with chocolate sauce & coffee. I would recommend a reservation otherwise you may have to wait quite a while.
I had a great experience at this place on a very busy Saturday night. The table d'hote was great value, I enjoyed a soup, salad, steak, dessert, & coffee for under 50$. My daughter is a picky eater & managed to finish everything on her plate. The sauce was my favourite part of the meal. Service was fast, & my water was never empty. I will definitely be back.
We were thankful to be accommodated on a busy Friday night for our party of five. We started with a basket of bread & butter. The kids' menu was simple, & the kids actually finished their pasta with tomato & meat sauce-so that's a win! I had a salad topped with shredded duck, which turned out to be a surprisingly good combo.
We also tried the entrecôte set menu, which included soup, salad, a 9 oz steak, profiteroles, & coffee or tea. Overall, we enjoyed our family meal, but there's definitely room for improvement.
Some suggestions: offering freshly baked bread would elevate the start of the meal. Presentation could also be a bit nicer-everyone takes photos of their food these days! The soup was great, but the salad dressing from the set menu wasn't very tasty. The steak, however, was cooked perfectly-we ordered both medium & medium rare, & we'd definitely go with medium rare next time. It came with fries, which unfortunately had no seasoning at all. Just plain fries, which felt like a missed opportunity.
The dessert of two profiteroles with vanilla ice cream & chocolate syrup was a nice way to end the meal. Coffee & tea were included, but the coffee tasted burnt-like the end of the pot. I didn't bother asking for a replacement since the overall experience was still pleasant. Service was exceptional - busy night but very attentive to our needs.
I wouldn't recommend this place if you're a picky eater like me. I only ended up here because the restaurant I originally planned to visit was closed, & this one was nearby & convenient.
It was my last day in Quebec, & up until this point, I'd had nothing but amazing food. Unfortunately, this place broke that streak. Honestly, it reminded me of eating at Applebee's back in the U.S.-a place I never go.
A gentleman greeted me & seated me in the center of the dining area, even though there was a perfect table for two by the window that was available. He greeted me in French, & I responded with'Hello.' I had the feeling he didn't appreciate that. As I sat there, I realized this restaurant catered more to locals.
The server seemed busy, & I had to wait quite a while for both her & my food.
The meal was underwhelming. I ordered a set course, & the soup was the only thing I truly enjoyed. The main was duck poutine with a pile of French fries, which were soggy & overcooked.
The dessert was disappointing too-frozen éclairs. The coffee was bitter & tasted burnt; I couldn't even finish it.
The bathroom is completely filled with the pungent smell of harsh chemicals & has an industrial appearance.
