The best vegan dishes; consistently the best meals of my life (& I haven't always been vegan ;) )

Went to Sun brunch & it was beyond excellent. All locally sourced & all delicious. From the smoothie to the dessert. Service was very informative & attentive. Highly recommended for both foodies & vegan alike.

I loved the 6 course vegan tasting menu! I appreciated the use of seasonal ingredients & the use of textures throughout the dishes. The service was exceptional, & the space feels elegant & cozy. I'm glad this exists within Quebec City! Will definitely return!!

I don't usually write reviews, but after dining here, I couldn't sleep without sharing my experience. I hate that it has set the bar so high for other restaurants, & I wish I could visit more often (first time in Quebec City). The Ambiance: Aesthetically pleasing & incredibly cozy, without feeling cramped in the slightest. The Food: Chef Sabrina Lemay is a culinary virtuoso. The harmony of interesting flavors invites you to savor each bite mindfully. The availability of well-executed vegan versions of many dishes (priced fairly, based on substituted ingredients) is a phenomenal, inclusive touch & a refreshing departure from the afterthought vegan options seen in many restaurants. They even managed to make raw oysters appealing to those averse to their texture. The Service: The best service I've ever received. The staff were professional yet warm & welcoming, ensuring everything was catered to with care & impeccable timing, without ever feeling intrusive. I never had to call on them once. On my way out, every waiter I passed wished me a good evening-despite being busy with other tables. We ordered fresh oysters, braised seitan & sunchoke, confit apple doughnut, & drinks. We also loved the complimentary amuse-bouches & mignardises, as well as the coupon for two free drinks during Sunday brunch. Looks like we'll be canceling our reservation elsewhere for Sunday & heading to l'Orygine instead. Update: We did go back.

Had an incredible dinner here! Service, ambiance, food were all amazing. We did the tasting menu. I have celiac so mine was made completely gluten-free & they took it very seriously. My husband had the vegan one & loved his food as well! Also nice to see a non-alcoholic wine pairing option.

Le service était incroyable. Le staff accueillant, sympathique & connaisseur. La nourriture est complètement divine. Nous avons pris le menu dégustation, moi celui vegan & wow. J'ai également beaucoup d'allergie alimentaire (noix arachides & plusieurs autres) & ils ont su ajuster le menu en conséquence sans perdre la qualité de celui ci. Leurs choix de vin est impeccable lorsqu'on prend l'accord met & vin. Le restaurant est très bien décoré, la présentation des plats incroyable. Ça vaux le détour !

This place is a gem. The tasting menu (vegan version) with wine pairing was spectacular.

Our hotel concierge booked a last minute reservation for us at this amazing restaurant! We ordered the Raw & Cooked Oysters, Roasted Duck & Smoked Squash, the Guinea fowl & cauliflower & a vegan pasta dish. Be careful not to order dishes with repeat ingredients together. All dished were in huge portions. This restaurant is highly recommended!
