The Sagamité opened its doors in 1999, and people from all over the world have been invited to discover Indigenous culture through gastronomy ever since. This place is named after the meal that has nourished the nation for centuries: the sagamité soup, which consists of corn, squash and beans. The restaurant is located in downtown Wendake.
The Saga Nomade Food Truck can be found all around Québec City and is also available for private events. Our specialties include our Signature poutine and our Elk burger. This is street food with an indigenous twist!
Sagamité offers an exceptional dining experience that celebrates Indigenous culture through high-quality, flavorful cuisine and a warm, culturally rich atmosphere. Guests frequently praise the unique dishes, particularly the game meats and the signature flambéed potence, which provide a memorable culinary spectacle. The restaurant is widely recognized for its professional, attentive, and passionate service, with many visitors highlighting the staff's expertise in guiding their food and wine choices. While some note that it is a premium-priced destination, the overall consensus is that the combination of superb food, beautiful decor, and excellent hospitality makes it a must-visit location for anyone looking for a unique and high-end gastronomic discovery in the region.
Je commencerais en disant , qu'après avoir lu les commentaires négatifs & avoir été mangé sur place , j'ai eu l'impression d'avoir été complètement à un autre endroit que ceux qui ont mis 1 ou 2 étoiles. En commençant le serveur était SUR-LA-COCHE. Super sympathique , Nous a pris en charge à la minute même de notre arrivé, nous explicant le menu en détail, nous donnant des conseils selon nos goût. Ce fut Dur de faire un choix pour chacuns de nous, tout était tentant.(mon choix c'est arrêté sur la soupe en entré, le rib de bison en principale & tarte à l'érable en dessert) De l'entrée au dessert, nous nous sommes régalés. Nos estomacs bien remplis & Moi, qui est un gros mangeur, en redemander aurait été de la gourmandise. Nous nous sommes pas ruinés, avons eu beaucoup de plaisir & tout était délicieux. Un gros 10/10 je recommande!
Parfait mélange entre ambiance historique des premières nations & chic actuelle. Les prix son élevés, mais est compensé par l'expérience client. Ce restaurant est parfait pour un souper en amoureux ou simplement une belle soirée en famille. Le service est volontairement lent pour permettre à la clientèle de profiter du moment. Si vous êtes pressé, mieux vaut aller dans un autre endroit, mais vous devez absolument prendre le temps d'y aller au moins une fois dans votre vie!
Tout y est !!! Le décor, la nourriture & le service. Je recommande le menu Yatista. La soupe Sagamité & les viandes cuites sur une potence avec ses sauces & accompagnements sont vraiment excellents. Notre serveur Robert nous a recommandé un vin & des apéros savoureux & nous a transmis sa passion pour cette cuisine exceptionnelle.

La soupe, le plat traditionnel, le dessert, l'accueil, la musique Innu & le service de Robert, tout participe d'une soirée très agréable & surtout authentique !! À découvrir très vite à Wendake
Excellent souper le gout est incroyable mais les quantités très petit pour le prix sorti avec une facture de 230$ pour deux avec seulement les 4 assiettes que vous voyez sur les photos (+2 verres de sangria)
Nous y sommes allés un samedi pour le souper. Nous étions 2 adultes & 2 enfants la facture était de 320$. Il s'agissait de note première expérience & le menu ne nous a pas été expliqué. Les services étaient servi avec énormément d'écart entre les deux. Les plat étaient déposés de manière négligés sur la table. Pas de beurre avec le pain & pas de verre d'eau. Nous sommes arrivés à 18h30 & sommes sortis à 21h45. Au moment de payer, le serveur s'est placé au-dessus de la machine interact pour s'assurer du montant du pour boire & pour mettre une pression. Il a eu 20% . J'ai remarqué que les autres invités n'avaient pas été servi de cette manière.peux être parce que nous étions avec nos enfants. La nourriture est excellente en tout point, mais malheureusement, nous n'y retournerons pas. Ce n'est pas le choix qui manque dans cette région.
Le menu souper nous offre une panoplie de choix varié. Les types de viandes ne s'offrent pas dans les autres restaurant. & venir souper est une vraie expérience que vous ne vivrez pas ailleurs. Je vous conseille d'essayer le thé (ou tisane) qu'il offre est excellente & spécialisé autochtone 😋 Notre serveur Robert nous a donné le goût de revenir...alors nous sommes revenu mais pour le déjeuner cette fois😀
My wife & I went there last night. They were very nice & accommodating on arrival. we each ordered wine & soup, to start. I had the Sagamite soup which was good. My wife had the onion soup, which was good, but nothing special. We did have onion soup on two other occasions on this trip, in Old City which were outstanding & this one was just pretty good compared. My wife had shrimp that came in a sauce that was a bit too sweet, for her, but that does not mean anything other than it was a little sweet for her taste, but the shrimp were excellent. The menu had some good selections & after discussing the options with the waiter, I chose the Bison short ribs. The options I discussed were the Bison short ribs, the Elk flank steak & deer & elk medallions.- When my meal came to the table, I had a flank steak delivered. I thought maybe they cut the bison into a steak cut, so I tasted it & it was not bison. It was a good steak, but very mild for bison (at least bison steaks I have had). I mentioned to the gentleman that delivered the dish that I ordered the short ribs & he looked very confused & took the plate back. The waiter then cam back with the plate & said that this is the correct order & that is what I ordered. He was a bit aggressive in his approach & that almost forced me to respond, but I stopped myself, as I did not want to make a scene & be "that guy". My wife & I told him that we were pretty sure I ordered the short ribs & he said that I said that I wanted the bison. I pointed out that the flank steak was elk & he said that they used bison today. Interesting that if I had just said I want bison, the only bison on the menu were the short ribs, the flank steak said it was elk. Not sure if they get charged back for mistake orders/returns. I decided to accept it, as it was pretty good, nut nothing really special in taste. Not the smoked & tender ribs we discussed. Anyway, trying to be as fair as possible on the quality, the soups were good, but nothing special in flavor. The shrimp were very well cooked & very good. The steak was a good piece of meat, but nothing special in flavor or preparation. He tried to give me an extra glass of wine for free, which I appreciated, but declined ( i already had 1 & was driving). He then brought out a slice of maple pie. Again appreciated, but not necessary. I guess very good for maple pie, but not a choice we would go to again.
Food was hit or miss. We ordered the five course meal with three meats, duck nachos smashed potatoes poutine, chicken wing appetizer, & the poke bowl. The meats were cold. The smashed potato poutine was good & the Sagamité was incredible. Did not care for the soup of the day (a zucchini cream). Loved the bread. The duck poke was not good at all. Server was over-worked but we as amazing. Restaurant is attractive & clean with lots of open space & natural light. However, be careful: my son's water glass broke in his mouth as he was drinking & he ended up with broken glass in his mouth-very dangerous.
