Absolutely delicious food. We enjoyed everything we had. The focaccia is airy. It's interesting how great the lemon came through & paired well with olive oil. Never had that elsewhere. The gnocchi poutine was nice. Not too salty, not too heavy. The onion soup was delicious. The tiramisu was on point. We had fun digging to the bottom. Our waiter also took good care of us. He always kept our water filled. Probably the best service we got amongst all the places we tried. Highly recommended. Not to mention the view from this restaurant

We ate there on the second day of our stay & enjoyed it so much we came back the next day to have the Cacio e Pepe which was wonderful (as was the Tiramisu). Top-notch service both times. Highly recommended!

Excellent food & solid service. Only knock is its a very small restaurant & on cold days each time the door opens there is a blast of cold air. Highly recommend the steak filet & lamb shank. Pass on the bolognese as bit bland

Everything was wonderful!! The atmosphere amazing! The food - extraordinary. We did the pasta experience & the staff there really made it memorable. We didn't get a full picture of the finished dish but I think we had it with the beef tongue garnish & we all really enjoyed it!! It's such a quaint, cozy & remarkable restaurant. Highly recommend.

VA Bene Bar is located steps from Rue du Petit Champlain, one of Quebec City's most beautifully decorated streets this time of year. It makes sense then that if you're in Old Quebec to view the Christmas card picture-perfect street scenes that you would dine at this restaurant.

Be aware that this restaurant is smallish & that tables only number about 12-15. It makes for a very cozy dining experience. Our table was a mere 3 feet from the front door. I highly recommend that you make a reservation.

The service is professional & somewhere between cautiously friendly & lukewarm.

My wife had the risotto funghi & found it delicious. I had the salmon & also found it to be really good.

We ordered Nonna's special recipe tiramisu &, while good, I was mildly surprised that it was served in a rectangular glass container that reminded me of the type one uses to store leftovers.

We came from Vancouver to celebrate our anniversary & were treated very well. The food was great, the service was excellent, & they gave us a delicious dessert to celebrate. A place in the heart of Quebec worth visiting. I highly recommend it.

A wonderful dining experience for my husband & I!

The restaurant is very small, which makes it lovely & cozy. The music was just right, as was the lighting.

My husband & I ordered three dishes to share between the two of us: Lamb Shank with Risotto, Pesto, & Carbonara. The first two were absolutely delicious & I would highly recommend them, but the Carbonara was quite tasteless.

The service was good, & when our waiter found out I was celebrating my birthday, he brought us a slice of lemon almond torte which was out of this world fantastic (it's not on the regular menu unfortunately, but it really should be. It's a truly fantastic dessert).

Anyhow, I can highly recommend this restaurant & we will be back next time we are in Quebec City.
