    We came here in the morning at a different location, we liked it so much we came again…read more Nancya was the best server that we had here in quebec city. She was so informative and she gave the best recommendations--and also, so incredibly sweet. She suggested the famous pot en pot, and the baby back ribs. We also ordered the french onion soup as well. We loved her suggestions, my parents and I basically cleaned the plate for them. Even the salad from each plate was delicious. (My dad, who is normally not a fan of salads, kept going for more) The french onion soup was also good, but a little too salty for my parents. I had briefly mentioned to Nancya about that, and she ended up taking it off the bill. I thanked her and she said it was normal! As an American, this is not what I'm used to and I was just beyond surprised over the customer service. I highly recommend going to Cochon Dingue and I hope your server is Nancya, because you will be taken care of.

    During our visit to Quebec City, we kept seeing this restaurant everywhere we went so we had to…read morecome give it a try! I think this place is a classic French restaurant to try out in Quebec City. We came here for breakfast and it was already so busy in the morning! We got the breakfast sandwich which was a yummy classic sandwich and the country duo which was more unique and also tasty! The country duo was both savory and sweet with the crepe and caramelized apples! They both came with a decent amount of home fries which were good! I would come back here to try their dinner menu!

    Our dinner at Verre Pickl' was truly extraordinary. The family-style table invites guests to arrive…read moreas strangers and leave as new friends. Each of the five courses was exceptional, seamlessly fusing traditional Québec and Mexican cuisines. Most, if not all, of the ingredients are regionally sourced from friends of the owners. We were served venison, Arctic fish, locally produced cheeses, and even moose that was hunted the previous day. My personal favorite was the perfectly prepared tamal which included fromage from the owners hometown. The owners were incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and knowledgeable, making the entire experience both memorable and special. Definitely a highlight of our trip.

    Let me start with this: anything negative in this review is my own damn fault and nothing to do…read morewith the restaurant. I don't speak French. I booked a single seat at a restaurant with 1 communal table in a French-speaking country. Let's just say it was a little awkward for me, as well as the other 9 French speakers at the table who kept glancing over at me and occasionally translating the story currently being told at the table. Not their fault...not the restaurant's fault...my fault alone. If you are traveling alone and don't speak French, keep it in mind when deciding to book here. That being said, the food was really delicious - mostly Mexican flavors, but with French influences. Started off with a nicely complex posole with pork jowl. Nice heat without being painful; pork was super-tender. Second course was a red snapper ceviche, served over a silky coconut & lime cream with green olives and green beans. A really interesting dish with elements you wouldn't think to put together but that worked really well. Third was zucchini fritters served with a green chile & pistachio mole. Fritters were light, mole was deep and tangy. Fourth was a perfectly cooked duck breast (crispy skin and all) served over a tomato, garlic, and pumpkin seed sauce. Best duck I've had in a good long while, and the sauce was absolutely delicious. He finished the meal with a quince and caramel tart served with dulce de leche sauce, which was a little sweet but really decadent. The chef introduced each dish (even giving me an abbreviated English version). Free shots were poured for the group twice in between courses. Service was attentive and accommodating. The whole experience took 3.5 hours which was a little long for 5 courses, but everybody at the table (who spoke French) was having a great time meeting the others and telling stories. Had I spoken French, I may have stayed longer to hang out, but the awkwardness hit the wall at the 210-minute mark and I asked for the check. If you speak French or have an English-speaking buddy to bring, I highly recommend the experience.
