Restaurant Ouroboros

Very nice place. Lovely staff. The wine was really good, & I liked the vibe for an apéro or to just enjoy a drink.

The food was very good but it was overpriced for what it was. I wouldn't come here for a meal.

Came here for a second time to celebrate my wife's birthday, & as before we were incredibly happy with our choice. Our server, Daniel, was thoroughly passionate about both the wines & cuisine they offer, & takes the time to explain the full menu & natural wine choices in detail, helping us curate a meal service & pairing that was truly exceptional. We can be a but obscure in our wine preferences (we like funky, farmy, & far-out bio wines), but Daniel snapped to it & immediately found us three great choices, all between $60-$68 per bottle.

The food items are not huge, as other reviewers have noted, but that makes sense since the approach is to share a variety of dishes & flavours & allow the chefs to flex their creativity. We had the mushroom & buckwheat canneloni, the asparagus dumplings, & the lobster sabayon & toast duo, & finished every last bite of each.

This is a surprisingly underrated eatery for Quebec City, rivalling the likes of Battuto (which is nigh impossible to get a reservation at). Needless to say, we'll definitely be back.

We enjoyed a quiet mid-March, mid-week dinner at Ouroboros with congenial & personal service, as well as creative & well-executed dishes that made the most of local food, & excellent wine. Quebec City is such a special place, not least of all for its food & people, & Ouroboros definitely contributed to this positive impression for us. Merci!

It was my first visit to this charming little restaurant, & I had the most delightful dining experience. The chef is incredibly talented & creates delicious dishes using seasonal, locally sourced products. The menu changes regularly based on what's fresh & available. The staff are friendly & knowledgeable about the menu & beverage program. There is no formal wine list, but rather an ever changing selection of low intervention, organic wines, beer & cider which are suggested by the sommeliers. Customers also have the option to peruse available bottles on the wall & bring some home. Orobourous is one of the best dining experiences I've had in Quebec & will undoubtedly become more in demand as others discover this gem. Get there sooner than later! I can't wait to return!

This just needs to be on everyone's list for high quality restaurants to enjoy while in Quebec City. It has everything you're looking for: friendly-as-heck folks working there, a comfortable unpretentious space to to relax & enjoy your time, innovative & incredibly delicious food (all sourced to be as local & seasonal as possible), & delightful all natural wines. I would just whole heartedly recommend this to anyone that eats more plant-forward (though a vegan would like have a hard time, still) & frankly to anyone else. If I find myself in this city again I plan on finding myself at this place again. Eat & drink here, friend, you will enjoy it immensely. Cheers!

After a disastrous experience down the street at l'affair du ketchup we stumbled on this heavenly spot tired & hungry. We were greeted warmly & within moments had tasty wine & warm sourdough with leek butter to snack on. Every plate was beautiful, perfectly balanced & so so fresh. We shared shrimp croquettes, pea cakes, arctic char, & a lobster waffle followed by puff pasty, crème diplomate & raspberries. Exceptional dinner from start to finish & warm & friendly service which turned around an awful evening into a magical one. Merci!!

We loved our meal at Ouroboros. We had a group of 5 & so tried almost everything on the menu that evening. All the dishes & service was excellent. The wine pairing suggestions were a delicious complement to the food. Bravo!
