About

Les Mauvaises Herbes focuses on plant-based culinary techniques that prioritize seasonal vegetables and bold, herbaceous profiles. The menu highlights creative interpretations of sushi, utilizing unique vegetable preparations to mimic traditional textures and flavor combinations. Diners encounter a variety of rolls, bowls, and small plates that emphasize the natural vibrancy of fresh ingredients rather than reliance on animal products. The preparation process involves precise knife work and thoughtful ingredient pairings to ensure a consistent experience across all offerings. Every component, from house-made sauces to seasoned rice, serves to showcase the versatility of vegan-friendly cuisine. The environment maintains a minimalist aesthetic, allowing the focus to remain entirely on the composition and presentation of the dishes served. This approach provides a clear demonstration of how plant-centric menus achieve complexity through focused technique.

I was hoping to try their sushi as there's a lot of good reviews about it but they took it out of the menu. Even so, I still gave them a chance & got the gnocchi + coconut curry. OMGGGG SO GOOD!!!!!! The portion was a bit small for the price but the flavour was incredible. I got the churros right after. I've been vegan for 5 years & haven't had churros since. Was amazing. Thank you so much.

Super beau petit restaurant sur la rue St-Jean, offrant une belle variété de plats végétaliens. Le copropriétaire a pris le temps de venir nous voir & de nous expliquer le concept du restaurant & du menu. Super agréable & savoureux!

Tout simplement DÉLICIEUX. Je voyage pour la nourriture végane & les plats du Mauvaises herbes étaient dignes des plus grands restaurants de NYC & LA. Le copropriétaire Carl est venu nous expliquer les nuances des plats & a pris le temps de nous raconter le parcours du jeune resto, chapeau! Les gnocchis frits étaient crémeux & fromagés à souhait. L'assiette de Mozzarella végane servit avec petite salade était fraiche, avec les morceaux de pêches. Les pogos coréens étaient gourmands & l'assiette de tofu frit, super gouteuse avec les jalapenõs & la coriandre. Je recommande vivement à tous, véganes ou pas. Nous avons aussi opté pour le cocktail Vodka Poire, un petit apéro bien réussit. Félicitations pour ce petit bijou. Si vous n'avez qu'un souper à Québec, c'est le meilleur choix.
