Restaurant Ouroboros

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.

My daughter & I visited Ouroboros during our trip to Quebec City, & it ended up being one of our favorite meals.

We arrived later in the day, & although they were able to fit us in, they let us know upfront that some items might be sold out since guests who were already seated would have first priority. I really appreciated that honesty. It set the tone for the entire experience & showed how much they value treating customers fairly.

When it came time to order, most of the menu was still available, & we ended up trying quite a few dishes. Every single one was outstanding. We loved the smaller portions because they allowed us to sample a variety of items & experience more of the menu.

Our favorite dish was the asparagus with egg & pesto. It was such a unique combination, & we're already talking about trying to recreate it at home. We especially loved how the chopped egg took on an almost cheese-like quality & added incredible flavor to the dish.

Our server was efficient, genuine, & helpful throughout the meal. We also loved the concept of a daily-changing menu built around fresh, local ingredients. You could truly taste the care, creativity, & freshness in every dish.

If I ever return to Quebec City, Ouroboros will absolutely be on my list of places to visit again.

We enjoyed the dining experience.

Food were writing on the board as they have a rotating menu. Menu was creative & particularly the sauce. Each dish speaks for itself & shows truly the chef's innovation.

The moment I saw the first dish I know we will have a great experience.

Highly recommended.

We will return to taste new menu that the Ouroboros could offer.

Sincerely,

Elisabeth

Malheureusement pas à la hauteur du prix, même dans le cadre de la Table gourmande. Le service était très bien mais les portions des repas minuscules pour le prix & pas très savoureux ou innovatifs non plus. Perso, je n'y retournerai pas.

Déjà charmé par les commentaires partagés de clients, j'arrivais disposé à passer un beau moment gastromique entre amis. Mais tout a pris un autre tournant après les choix proposé de vins nature peu convainquant.Les plats principaux nous ont été servis malheureusement tièdes (comme l'atmosphere) même après l'avoir exprimé a la serveuse. Les assiettes peu généreuses manquaient d'amour. Une expérience qui laisse un goût amer. Heureusement que nous étions en excellente compagnie.

Décevant. J'avais si hâte d'y aller. J'avais lu sur le concept, j'avais hâte de déguster. Tout manquait d'amour. Les plats , le service & l'ambiance. On a dû réviser 2 fois nos plats choisis. Semble-t-il qu'il avait été trop populaire & ce n'était plus disponible à la table gourmande. Pourtant nous étions au premier service de la soirée.
