The Maison Livernois has a terrace of about fifty places, in addition to some 90 places inside. On the menu are pub classics, such as burgers, but also eight dishes inspired by the flavors of the world. The name La Maison Livernois is inspired by a family that has already been very involved in Quebec City. She founded the first photography studio in 1854 in the building that now houses the St. Patrick's Pub. Each gin and vodka brewed by Top Resto Group will bear the name of one of the members of this family. The first being the Jules-Ernest gin. Three recipes are already developed. In addition to food, La Maison Livernois is a tasting place. There are many kinds of Quebec gins and a laboratory to educate people.
Maison Livernois offers a highly regarded dining experience in the heart of Old Quebec, frequently praised for its inviting atmosphere, beautiful historic decor, and comfortable seating. Many guests highlight the exceptional quality of the food, particularly the steak frites, poutine, duck confit, and the creative selection of house-made gins. The service is often described as professional, attentive, and friendly, with many visitors noting that the staff goes above and beyond to provide tailored recommendations and accommodate special requests. While the experience is generally positive, some guests have noted occasional inconsistencies in service speed or portion sizes, but overall, it remains a popular destination for those seeking a memorable meal in a charming setting.
Nous sommes allés souper & avons adoré notre expérience. Le service était classe & convivial! Mention spéciale au barman Jean-Philippe qui a été excellent.
Great server (sorry, didn't get her name), had a wonderful charcuterie board (maybe a bit small), great prawns, amazing nachos, best smashed burger I've ever had!!
J'y suis allé avec ma conjointe, une ambiance chaleureuse & décontractée. La nourriture est sympa & les cocktail vraiment bon! Merci à notre barman Jean-Philipe qui a su nous conseiller des cocktails à nos goûts.
We had an amazing time at Livernois. It was pouring rain that evening, & there were no tables available inside. Our server Mathis found a spot for us under an awning on the patio where we stayed quite dry despite the heavy downpour!
The food was wonderful, we enjoyed appetizers, entrees & dessert, & all of the food came quickly & was delicious.
We were the only people on the patio, & Mathis was excellent at checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed, despite him getting wet in the process. He also made some great recommendations on the menu when we couldn't decide between options.
Great food, beautiful location (even in the pouring rain!) & incredible service. Highly recommend.
La propreté des toilettes exécrable , des excréments étendu partout, rarement vu cela .
Le serveur n'avait pas du tout l'air de vouloir être là, très mauvais service, d'abord on commence par les dames lorsqu'on prend la commande c'est la base. Il manquait clairement de formation. Sincèrement il avait l'air sur la coke.
Nous étions 6 adultes & deux adultes ont reçu les plats principaux avec les entrées & ont dû manger seuls, les 4 autres personnes ont mangés beaucoup plus tard. Ça ne se fait pas.
Aucun service de vin , nous avons dû nous le servir nous même. Première expérience pour le gin & on nous a donné le carte sans trop explications. Cocher là & c'est tout… clairement, nous aurions plus consommé avec un meilleur service ex: 2 bouteilles de vin mais le serveur ne le proposait pas & même ne demandait pas a tout le monde s'ils voulaient quelque chose, c'est nous qui devions le réclamer .. Rarement vu ça & je ne commente jamais sur des sites & nous ne sommes pas exigeants, mais là trois familles qui ne retourneront plus à votre établissement.
My first time here a few years ago was a great experience all around & I expected a similar experience this time around.
It started off great with a pleasant greeting by the hostess & was seated promptly at a nice table. It took a bit of time for my server to come by, & when they did, assumed I did not speak French & when I replied in French, he called out my accent & proceeded to continue in English.
He took my order & the entree seemed to have been served within minutes. My drinks were not served at this point & the server blamed someone else who was supposed to bring the beer to the table. So much for chilling before eating. So now I have a beer & a glass of wine on the table.
I had the steak frites. The cook on the steak was just a tad undercooked to the medium rare I requested but was passable so I didn't send back. The fries were on the soggy side, not terrible but not great either. I had to ask for pepper & all I got was a pepper shaker, no fresh ground.
The server was inattentive, not once did he check in to ask how the food was. Maybe my permanent scowl from the drink issue scared him away. He did comp the glass of wine which I appreciated but was too little of a gesture to make up for the overall experience. I had planned on having dessert but decided I couldn't spend anymore time or money for bad service & mediocre food.
I know Maison Livernois can do better as I experienced it. I probably won't be back. It's a shame because they have a fantastic list of Quebec gins.
J'ai adoré mon expérience! La nourriture était délicieuse, j'ai mangé un plat grésillant! Mon serveur Alex était incroyable, un naturel, thumbs up!! L'ambiance à l'intérieur était parfaite pour un bon souper 😇
Wonderful place for lunch. I had the Confit Duck Poutine which was delicious, followed by the Pouding Chômeur & an Espresso, accompanied by a local Lager. It was a lovely meal with friendly, helpful service from sweet Emily. Great place to chill out & hide from the heat too!
