Excellent dining experience. I loved everything & we order almost everything in the menu. I wish I had reviewed it sooner so I could recall the name of the dishes. We are definitely going back when we go back to Quebec City.

We like to travel & eat well, which sometimes means ordering a little too much food & drinking a little too much wine. At Melba, that was a great life choice.

The space is small, calm, & easy to talk in. The entire staff speaks perfect English & French & effortlessly switches between the two. Throughout the meal, our waitress, the mixologist, & even chefs from the open kitchen explained each dish as it arrived. Friendly, engaging, & clearly passionate without ever being stiff or pretentious.

The wine list is extensive & refreshingly reasonable. We skipped cocktails but watched the mixologist at work & immediately regretted our restraint. With guidance from the staff, we ordered multiple courses, including a warm goat cheese salad, Parisian gnocchi, & a beautifully cooked piece of fish. Everything was excellent.

That salad, though. Unforgettable. The kind of dish that lives rent free in your head & makes you plan a return trip. The gnocchi were so good I cleaned the plate with bread & felt no shame. Dessert was rich, clever, & completely unnecessary in the best way.

The open kitchen is a joy to watch. The team works like a single, well-oiled machine. No ego, no chaos, just great food & great people.

Melba may be Bib Gourmand, but this is Michelin star level cooking. We have eaten at one & two star restaurants around the world. Melba belongs in that group. We will be back.

Nous aimons voyager & bien manger, ce qui mène parfois à manger un peu trop & boire un peu trop de vin. Chez Melba, c'était une excellente décision.

La salle est petite, calme & agréable. Tout le personnel parle parfaitement français & anglais. Tout au long du repas, la serveuse, le mixologue & même des chefs sont venus présenter les plats avec enthousiasme & naturel.

La carte des vins est vaste & très raisonnable. Nous avons partagé plusieurs plats, dont une salade de chèvre chaud mémorable, des gnocchis parisiens exceptionnels & un poisson parfaitement cuit. Tout était excellent.

La cuisine est ouverte & l'équipe fonctionne comme une seule entité, fluide & efficace. Aucune prétention, juste beaucoup de talent.

Melba est Bib Gourmand aujourd'hui, mais l'expérience est clairement du niveau d'une étoile Michelin. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter.

L'un des meilleurs soupers que j'ai eu dans ma vie , très bon restaurant . Ma conjointe & moi avons passés une très belle soirée. Nourriture de qualité . Tout était bon, les entrées , les repas principaux , le dessert ... les vins, l'espresso martini , TOUT . Place très''cozy'' , ambiance avec lumières tamisées . Le service était incroyable , les serveurs(euses) expliquent les repas de a à z. Ce n'est pas donné , mais ça en vaut tellement la peine. J'y retournerai assurément.

Nous avons eu une expérience formidable. Le service était top notch. Nos serveuses étaient très cordiales & sympathiques, & changeaient nos assiettes & ustensiles après chaque service. La nourriture était spectaculaire (gâtez-vous & goûtez au tartare de cerf pendant qu'il est au menu, il est LÉGENDAIRE). Chaque met était une expérience culinaire remarquable. Ce restaurant (bien caché sur St-Vallier) est une véritable trouvaille, un joyau caché de Québec que je ne connaissais pas, mais auquel je vais absolutement retourner.
