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.

Nice restaurant in quebec city. The food was great & my family enjoyed it. But I'm going to have to say that the service needs improvement. The cleaning is slow, so we waited a while to wait for the table to be cleaned, & the one who was taking our order took a long time to come & ask. Now we waited roughly 40 minutes for the drinks & the food. They came together so you had no drinks to start off. Now let me just say, that if you do want good food, it is worth the wait & bad service!

Délicieuse burrata. Magnifique terrasse au coeur de la vieille ville de Québec. Un incontournable pour prendre un verre entre amis ou pour un apéro avant un spectacle en ville.

I would give this place more than 5 starts if I could.... My experience at Sapristi was so perfect that it's definitely on my visit list for the next time I'm in Quebec City! The atmosphere is amazing, the interiors are gorgeous & the indoors are not as crammed as we had expirience day some other places. We started with a bucket of matchstick fries & they were a little oily-er than what I would've liked but ooof the crunch! We finished the first bucket in no time & ordered a second one because we were so pleased with it! We also got the buffalo flatbread & it's one of the best pieces of food I've had in Quebec! Extremely flavourful & the right crispiness to the bread. Absolutely loved this place!

Belle terrasse, surtout à l'arrière! Les pâtes carbonara sont excellentes! Je vous recommande l'extra saucisse, ça rehausse le goût!

J'ai pris la pizza aux figues & chorizo... ma pâte était détrempée d'huile, très décevant & désagréable. De plus, les frites aux « truffes & parmesan » goûtaient les simples frites mcdo. Mon chum à apprécié les pâtes aux deux saumons.
