Great option for a nice buffet breakfast inside the iconic Chateau Frontenac with beautiful views of the Dufferin Terrace! Service was great, buffet was plentiful with many options. It was a wonderful way to start our day of exploring Québec City!

Dec2024 Indoor terrace restaurant of the Fairmont Quebec nestled atop a prominent hillside of the city. This resto is where guests would be having their morning dinners. Holiday season was busy & bustling as guests came in droves & queues arw much the norm. The food is basic Western European style with a slant to some Canadian fare such as their ham & meat pie. They also offer some in house honey & jams. For a buffet it is standard. It is really the service that is the stat of the place. Quick, efficient & friendly, the servers are very able to handle the large crowds who gather each day to dine here. The receptionists are to be commended for their poise in managing the queues. The atmosphere is a 5 IF you find yourself in the terrace area near the windows which give you a wonderful view. Inside the interiors are understandably dated due to all the foot traffic. A good way to start the day's walking im Quebec City.

We were so lucky to be able to get a table for high tea at this lovely location! There was a cancelation, & Miguel was able to give us a table in the room overlooking the terrace. There was a wonderful pianist with live music. The tasty bites on all of the courses were delectable! I had the cream Earl gray tea, which is a specialty of the restaurant. I wasn't sure when our waitress said there were hints of maple also in the flavor. It turned out to be so creamy & delicious! I ended up buying some at the store in the hotel. Our waitress was so personable & took time to talk with us & tell us about life in Quebec. This was a not to be missed experience!

An above average buffet breakfast. Nice view if you can get on the terrace.

We had the breakfast buffet here as the other hotel restaurants aren't open yet. The food was great, but there is so much to choose from that we probably would have been better to choose the a la carte option instead of the buffet. The restaurant is right on the Dufferin terrace, so you get to see the boardwalk but not the view of the river.
