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 a remarkable culinary experience where guests can discover Indigenous cuisine in a warm and beautifully decorated environment.

Exceptional service is frequently noted, as the staff members are consistently praised for their professionalism, passion, and ability to provide insightful menu recommendations that enhance the dining experience. Whether for a special occasion, a family gathering, or a memorable evening, the restaurant stands out as a unique destination in the region.
Une première pour nous autant l'ambiance, que le service & la nourriture était excellente ! Le menu est adapté avec des produits maison nous avons adoré !
Superbe restaurant reconstruit à neuf après avoir passé au feu.
Quel joyaux qu'est le restaurant la Sagamité pour Wendake. Le site est magnifique, situé en plein coeur de Wendake juste à côté des chutes Kabir-Kouba où j'ai personnellement dessinées les plans de revitalisation des marches qui mènent à la chute!
Le restaurant possède une magnifique terrasse tout autour du restaurant & qui donne une vue incroyable sur la rivière & le son que celle-ci produit. Une fois à l'intérieur vous serez immédiatement baigné par la culture autochtone dans l'immense accueill regorgeant de leurs patrimoine. Que ce soit par les 3 majestueux canoës suspendus au plafond du 2ième étage ou les magnifiques animaux trônant juste à côté de l'incroyable escalier flottant vêtu de verre, votre expérience n'en sera qu'au commencement. Préparé vous à vivre une expérience visuelle & sensorielle hors du commun.
Le personnel est charmant, accommodant & attentionné. La nourriture est disons boisé (viande de bois) & le feu (Yatista), omniprésent dans l'expérience autochtone. Les plats sont généreux, finement apprêtez & visuellement charmant. Le duo de tartares pour ma part fût excellent au goût. Nous avons passé une excellente soirée en famille & les prix oscillent entre 40 & 80$ par personne.
Je vous invite personnellement à y aller & aussi admirer la chute!
Great experience overall. We loved the food & ambiance! We had the potence des trois panaches, which gives you the opportunity to try many types of meat. The server was very friendly & welcoming.
Nourriture incroyable de A à Z. Nous avons pris le menu à 2 & les portions sont généreuses & délicieuses. Robert nous a super bien reçu, expliquer & servi durant cette soirée. Nous reviendrons s'est certain!
The best dining experience in Wendake! From the moment we arrived, our server Robert warmly welcomed us & went above & beyond to ensure we were well taken care of. After learning about our dietary preferences, he thoughtfully suggested meal options & even recommended a white wine to complement our choices.
We started with the Smoking Pipe appetizer-melted Calumet cheese that practically melted in our mouths. We were thrilled to learn that both the Walleye & Char were locally sourced. The Walleye fillet was cooked to perfection, topped with a delightful chutney of cranberry, corn, tomato, ginger, & roasted almonds, served on a bed of wild rice with hearty vegetables on the side. The Char, served on a bed of corn chips like nachos, was complemented with sour cream, corn, & cheese, an unexpected & delicious twist.
But the highlight of our experience was the beautiful surprise we got for a birthday. Robert & his colleague serenaded us with song & drum, while presenting our dessert-maple pie with a lit candle. It was an unforgettable touch.
As we left, we took a moment to explore the restaurant, admiring the space & displaying handicrafts, reflecting on the truly wonderful experience we had.
