Each dish highlights the integrity of raw ingredients by pairing handmade noodles with vibrant sauces crafted from imported tomatoes and fragrant herbs. The physical space reflects a functional design that prioritizes accessibility and efficient movement within the dining area to accommodate guests seeking a substantial meal. Patrons encounter a focused selection of carbohydrate-forward plates that adhere to traditional preparation techniques practiced across various Italian regions.

I love when good food is served in a beautiful atmosphere. Quebec City has impressed me, especially La Capitole Hotel with its delightful restaurant. Just watch this ambiance - equally inviting, with a mix of modern elegance & classic charm, making it perfect for both intimate dinners & celebratory gatherings. The brunch offerings are particularly impressive. I got Eggs Benedict served with perfectly crispy potatoes & fresh fruits, enjoyed in a sunlit space that enhances the meal's enjoyment. The food was not just delicious but beautifully presented, adding to the overall experience. From the moment I walked in, the service was impeccable. The staff made me feel welcomed & ensured that every aspect of my meal was perfect. It's these small details that make dining at Il Teatro so special & memorable. If you ever find yourself in Quebec City, a visit to La Capitole Hotel & its restaurant is a must! The combination of exquisite food, stunning decor, & exceptional service creates an unforgettable dining experience.

We decided on an overnight trip - completely forgetting it was Mother's Day weekend. There were no tables available at our initial choice, we decided to do breakfast at Il Teatro. We checked online & saw two listing's: Mother's Day Brunch Menu & Breakfast. A table was available so we booked & hoped both menus would be offered. Short version: only the Mother's Day menu. It turned out to be better than we ever expected. From the wonderful shrimp w/avocado cream to mini pizza-tiny tasty cherry tomatoes that burst in your mouth & shaved foie gras to lamb shanks. Very well done. We will return. Great service & cuisine. Thank you!

Malheureusement les repas semblaient être des restes retapés de la veille du jour du l'an. Entrée de foie gras revampé, saumon délicieux, osso bucco carottes flétries & vieillies, même dessert que la veille, café tiède. Avec l'offre gastronomique de Québec, on n'y revient pas, au Il Teatro, ce n'est pas à la hauteur!

We went to Il Teatro for the Christmas Day fixed 4course dinner. We had a really good time, ambiente was great, food was really good, & a very good deal with $65. Service was very friendly, sometimes a little inexperienced.

Malgré le peu d'achalandage au IL Teatro, le soir du 21 décembre, notre rdv pour le souper était à 18h00 & nous allions voir le spectacle à 20H30 .
À l'arrivée nous demandons un mousseux & quelques minutes après ont nous apporte notre verre de vin sans que nous ayons terminé notre appéro. Par la suite l'entrée le plat principale & dessert nous ont été servies beaucoup trop rapidement.
Malheureusement à 19h05 nous avions terminé de manger. Les prochaines fois nous allons demander de ne pas nous précipiter pour ce repas de 3 services.

Je vous recommande d'inclure le pain dans le menu de la table d'hôte & aussi le menu à la carte.

We were on a family vacation at Quebec City & went to Il Teatro for dinner. We ordered a Margarita pizza, Pasta, bread etc. The quality of food was excellent & the service was prompt & great.

We really liked the Red Peppers dipped in Olive Oil. They were just the best tasting we ever had.

Excellent restaurant, great location, great food & service.

Good vegetarian options.

Depuis la pandémie, je trouve que la qualité de la nourriture n'est plus du tout ce qu'elle était. Jeudi dernier à la table d'hôte : un tartare fait à l'avance, un jarret d'agneau tiède (que j'ai dû retourner en cuisine pour l'avoir chaud) - pas de pain ni de beurre amenés à la table - bref ce qui était avant un restaurant 5 étoiles a de la difficulté à atteindre 3 étoiles maintenant ! La personne avec qui j'étais - un client plus que fidèle du Il Teatro m'a confié que pour lui c'était terminé - il n'irait plus manger au Il Teatro - payer & avoir un repas "WOW" pas de problème mais payer plus cher qu'avant pour un repas juste passable - non merci !
