    Right on 3er Ave and near 10th Ave, we found this oyster bar when googling for late night eats near our AirBnb. I am happy with our choice here. This was a good intro to local Québécois. You would definitely need to know French to fully enjoy this place, because as polite and friendly as the staff members were, none of them were not comfortable enough in explaining the menu in English, but that was fine since I was to practice my French anyway throughout this week long trip. I appreciate that they at least tried. They have a small English menu for the food and a full French menu that includes the beverage and alcohol. I ordered the wild mushroom risotto and my beau ordered their Daily Pasta Special, which was ravioli with chicken-like mushroom! Both dishes had superb taste and the mushrooms tasted so much chicken that it was shocking! I always love French food because of the rich flavours and excellent service usually. They gave us plenty of bread, refilled our water and checked in on us often enough, but unfortunately when it came to paying for the bill, the server took forever to come, so I had to go up and personally asked for the bill. Otherwise, everything was better than expected. Weather was decent, so we got to enjoy the patio. Their oyster and seafood selections were unique to me and they had an extensive menu of beverages. Faster service would have preferred.

    WOW! This amazing little gem of a place is 5 star across the board. Great modern quebecois cuisine, great service, and great ambiance. This was our first night in Quebec and we wanted to try modern Quebecois cuisine. We read great thing about Cendrillon, so made reservations and off we went. We arrived and were warmly greeted and taken to our table near the open kitchen's oyster bar. The decor inside is very eclectic and charming, and they also have patio dining out front. The dishes here are smallish, as you are meant to order several and share. Bigger than tapas size and wash is a little mini entre in itself...very nice concept. They also specialize in raw oysters, which I love, buy my son and wife do not, so we skipped these. They also make homemade charcuterie, and so started with that. The charcuterie plate included five different types; Copa, white ham, pepperoni, duck breast, and a pate (forgot what type). Surrounded by assorted house made picked red onion, fennel, and pickels, and each served on top of it own house made special sauce. This was the best charcuterie plate I've ever had even compared to those I had in Europe. For the share plates they had many great sounding items on the menu but my wife and I each wanted to try the quarter lobster tail and puff pastry and caviar cream sauce. So we got two of those are we got steak with cheesy mashed potatoes and red wine sauce for our son. Our lobster was simply out of this world...could not have been better. Our son loved his steak; and for the entire ride home could not stop talking about how much he loved his mashed potatoes and his broccolini with Cesar dressing. We also ordered their escargot with Parmesan and a piece of seared foie gras on top. Also super delicious. I should also mention that with each dish our waiter carefully described each dish, which unfortunately I am not doing them justice here, as I am sure I forgot half the ingredients, but nevertheless every dish was superb. We later found out that our waiter was actually one of the co-owners (Jeffery, maybe. I am terrible with names) and he founded this restaurant four years ago. The name of the restaurant is Cinderella in French and they called it this because it's a bit of a rebirth of a restaurant that used to be in this location back in the 60s. Sounds like this part of town kind of ran down and now it's experiencing a rebirth. For dessert we thought we try something different and ordered: Maple sugar tart with Maple baked bean ice cream, and a piece Maple sugar "cake" on top. The tart and the sugar cake were very tasrty, but too sweet for us. However, the ice cream was quite wonderful. (Think azuki bean ice cream, but replace the red beans and sugar with baked beans and maple syrup). We each would have liked a big scoop of it. We also had olive oil sponge cake, with a bit of maple ice cream. This was just average, nothing special here. All in all, I highly recommend you visit here, as you will be in for a great experience.

    The deep fried chicken wings are very crispy and super delicious. It's also the top dish at  this place

    The place is not for tourists, full of local residents. The dishes are great. The cheese platter is incredible! Will come back for sure.

    Smoked pork belly with quail egg , crookneck squash puré and swiss chard.

    Beautiful new resto-bar in Limoilou! The decor is full of beautiful details and contrasts; delicate plate designs and lazer carved tables vs the concrete and brick walls. A good place to stop and grab a drink before or after your night starts/ends.

    Great atmosphere

    Love the space and the service. Very attentive staff and the dishes are absolutely delicious. However, I found the place a bit pricey considering the laid back appeal and very small portions.

    Sweet breads, amazing!!!!!

    After taking the funicular down from the upper city, we wandered the old town and found Le Pape…read moreGeorges. It was on my list to try and we discovered it on umbrella alley. We were seated on the patio and our very sweet server was right out to take our drink order. Since we are eating Poutine all over Canada in search of our favorite. We so enjoyed sitting on the patio, it was a beautiful day, we were people watching and enjoying the umbrellas place up the alley. Our poutine was delivered to the table and I can honestly say it was our favorite. The fries were crunch and creamy on the inside. The gravy was rich and had a deep flavor and the cheese curds had lightly melted. Every bite was perfect. The eatery and bar are tucked into a stone house that dates back to 1668, if only the walls could talk. The bar and restaurant feature local Quebec cuisine and is a gem. The service was excellent as was the atmosphere.

We had 9 people and they sat 5 at a table and 4 at the bar and we were completely fine with the arrangement. It is quaint and small and we could see our family and even shared some food since we Were close enough. The cheese fondue is not to be missed . It was absolutely the perfect start to our meal. Then we shared an original poutine and it also was delicious- best I had on our trip thus far! I ordered mussels for my meal and a steaming pot arrived and they were yummy. Ambiance and service were great. They accommodated our awful French attempts. Drinks were large. Honestly, I feel lucky to have dined here. Everything was wonderful!

    Husband and I had the seven course chef tasting menu. Every item was beautifully presented and…read moredelicious. In particular, the lime panna cotta pre-dessert was light, refreshing, and had a variety of textures and flavors including sweet, salty, sour, crunchy, and smooth all the same time. Quite an adventure for my taste buds! I also greatly enjoyed the savory scallops with roasted corn in creamy corn sauce. So yummy! I chose this restaurant because several google reviewers said the food was on par with Michelin restaurants. I definitely agree. Also the price of the meal is a fraction of what I would normally pay for the same quality of food and service in the US. The meal was so special it felt like an anniversary dinner.

    We initially tried to eat lunch near Frontenac, but parking was sparse, especially on a Sunday…read more... so we started looking for the best rated brunch place fairly close by. Le 101 had 5-star reviews on Tripadvisor but hardly anything on Yelp. Stunning! Ambiance was very relaxed and welcoming for quite an upscale place and our server was extremely attentive. Best choice, probably the gravlax and pate-croute but also the omelette was delicious. Definitely go for the waffles as a dessert, the blueberries were right in season. If/when we are back in Quebec City, we may consider staying at their Bed and Breakfast as well. If I'd be able to give 10 stars, I'd do that too. Amazing.
