Review Summary

Sapristi St-Jean is a popular spot in Old Quebec known for its charming atmosphere, stylish decor, and delightful outdoor patios. Many guests praise the delicious pizza, pasta, and salmon tartare, often highlighting the quality of the wood-fired dishes and the availability of gluten-free options. While the service is frequently described as friendly, attentive, and professional, some visitors have reported inconsistent timing, occasional lapses in communication, or challenges during busy periods. Pricing is generally considered reasonable for the area, though opinions on portion sizes and seasoning occasionally vary. Despite these mixed experiences regarding speed and service attentiveness, the restaurant remains a recommended destination for those looking for a flavorful meal in a welcoming, lively environment.

Lunch en groupe de 4. Nous avons choisi la pizza funghi, le croque monsieur & un flatbread figues chorizo. Tout à été apprécié. Les portions sont correctes sauf peut-être le croque monsieur qui disparaît sous la salade d'accompagnement. Très bonne sangria blanche. Prix corrects. Belle ambiance sur la terrasse.Bon service.

Avons savouré pizza du jour (saumon fume) , un bel equilibre entre les saveurs, câpres énormes ( moi qui adore les câpres ). Mon fils a goûté pour la 1ere fois & a adoré. & des pâtes carbonara, un délice, vraiment ! A recommander sans hésiter.

Pizza was amazing- had the fantasia.
Unfortunately the arancini was overdone & lacked the interior creaminess.
+ I'm not sure why but where we sat was infested with swarms of flies that also lined the bar...made the meal less appetizing.

I had the pizza special (Shrimp, feta cheese & pesto) really tasty. My wife's mac & cheese was a little dry, but she enjoyed it. We also had a pitcher of sweet rose sangria for $26.00. I will come back again in the near future.
