    I came to Matane for business but in serious search of an excellent seafood shop to take some ocean…read morefood back home to Montreal. When I entered BP we were in search for a quick lunch but was pleasantly surprised to see the selection and display quality of seafood, spices, sweet jams and sauces and desserts. Everything was very nicely displayed behind large see-through glass displays and they had an excellent selection of both fresh and frozen. Also, they had an amazing selection of prepared seafood salads. In the back of the Poissonnerie is a lunch restaurant with a little menu of seafood based items. Giddy with excitement I ordered the Fish and chips trio $12.95 (shrimp, cod and scallops). It came in a very nice light batter and the chips were crisp and light. You could really taste the freshness of the seafood but I was a bit disappointed with the serving size. A little on the smaller side! My work colleague ordered the seafood soup and he was a bit disappointed of the serving size also. However the taste and quality was quite good! Now onto the seafood. I brought back some "famous" Matane shrimp, fresh snow crab (season just started last week), seafood salad and tuna tartar. I planned my pickup in the night time just before 7:00 PM closing. As I have been to the store's at closing time the staff is usually more interested in going home than providing customer service but this was an exception. The two different women helping me were extremely courteous and provided attentive polite service! I was impressed to say the least! They pack your seafood in styrofoam coolers with ice and I was planning on eating it 24 hrs later. When I opened the box it still had some ice! Wow! If I lived in Matane I'd come here weekly but alas I'm more than 600 KM away. Looking forward to my next visit.

    Location: In Matane's downtown core. Street parking is available - pay attention to the signage to…read moremake sure you don't overstay your welcome. We parked across the street from the bar and it was max 2-hour parking. I'm not sure if it's the same on other streets. The place: So from what I gathered, they have two places (next door to each other). I think one is bar/beer only while the one we went to also serves food (don't quote me on that 'cause I might be wrong). Anyway, it's a typical pub/bar vibe, casual, cozy. The goods: we went twice because the first time was just too good. We stopped in for dinner on the night we got to Matane, and ordered the fish and chips. The fish was delicious and fresh, the crust was perfect - crispy but not oily at all. The skinny fries were great and the sangria I ordered was refreshing and tasty. I went back today and ordered the shrimp guedille, served with fries. It was great. I tried the cheese cake and it was amazing - super soft and creamy, not like the usual cheesecake. The folks I was with on both occasions, loved their meals as well. Service: Friendly. Price point: It can be a little on the pricey side, but I think it's worth it. If you're in the area, definitely check these guys out.

The space was beautifully decorated with house plants and art on the walls of local plants and sea creatures. There was even a mini shop of teas and herbals at the entrance. The menu highlighted seafood and local farm to table options. We chose two appetizers including the fois gras with berry sauce and a charcuterie and cheese platter. It was all visually beautiful AND tasty! My husband tried the homemade seabuckthorn lemonade drink which reminded us of a combination of pineapple and orange juice. Our entree was the mussels with onions and wine sauce with fries on the side. Delicious! The waitstaff were so friendly even though the restaurant got very busy while we were there. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. We continued to be tantalized by the pouding chomeur with blueberries. The desserts were on display in a dessert cabinet near us. They warmed up the pouding (which is a traditional Québécois dessert) and served it with a drizzle of cream sauce (containing Irish creme ?) . It was a wonderful ending to the meal.

They were very fresh and tender but the broth was minimally seasoned, which was a slight disappointment. I was so looking forward to dipping my bread in it. Oh well, at least the mussels were delicious and the seafood risotto was fantastic. A very nice spot for an early dinner.

    French: La bouffe ici, selon moi, est vraiment bonne. Pour…read moreRimouski, c'est difficile de faire mieux. C'est clairement un resto un peu cher, mais c'est le genre d'endroit où on va pour une sortie spéciale. Mon problème, par contre, pis c'est pour ça que je mets pas 5 étoiles, c'est que le service était vraiment lent. Ça a pris une éternité avant qu'on nous prenne la commande, pis après qu'on ait fini, encore plus de temps pour payer. Je comprends qu'il manque de personnel, mais ça reste que le service était pas au top. En plus, comme c'est dans un hôtel, on sent carrément l'odeur de la piscine dans le resto. C'est un peu une combinaison étrange. Concernant la bouffe, j'ai essayé quelques plats: Cocktail Paloma : 8/10 - Sucré, mais pas trop. On goute pas trop la tequila, mais c'était généreux en portion. Très beau visuellement. Foie Gras en Tandem: 7.5/10 - C'est du foie gras fait de deux façons. Moi, je préfère le foie gras pur cuit dans la poêle, mais c'est probablement le meilleur foie gras "manipulé" que j'ai mangé. J'ai préféré les petites rondelles de foie gras que le dôme de parfait de foie gras, juste parce que c'était plus riche pis ça avait un goût plus naturel à mon avis. J'ai adoré la présentation de l'entrée, avec toutes les combinaisons de saveurs sur l'assiette (oignons marinés, compote de pommes, graines de grenade, etc.) Pis les petite brioches avec était vraiment mignon et décadent. Filet Mignon avec purée de pommes de terre: 8/10 - Je l'ai pris saignant, pis c'était cuit à la perfection. C'était p'tit, mais à mon avis, c'est la bonne taille pour un filet mignon. La sauce au poivre était correcte, c'était pas la meilleure que j'aie mangée, mais ç'etait bon quand même. La purée de pommes de terre était super aillée pis beurrée, j'ai adoré, même la salade wedge était goûteuse. J'ai quitté le resto satisfait, pis en tout, heureux de mon repas. Le seul point que je veux ajouter, c'est qu'une personne à notre table a pris les côtes levées, pis a mentionné qu'elles étaient super sèches. À garder en tête! English: The food here, in my opinion, is pretty great. For Rimouski, it's hard to get much better. It's definitely on the expensive side, but this is a special outing sort of restaurant. My issue, however, and why I don't give 5 stars, is because the service was pretty slow. It took them a very long time to get to us to take our orders, and after we were done, even longer to pay. I understand that there is a lack of workers, but it was definitely not the greatest service. Additionally, since it is in a hotel, you can literally smell the pool from the restaurant. It's a bit of an odd combination. As for the food, I tried a few things: Paloma Cocktail: 8/10 - Sweet, but not too sweet. Didn't taste too much of tequila but was generous in its portion. Very beautiful. Foie Gras in Tandem: 7.5/10 - This is foie gras done two ways. I prefer pure foie gras cooked on a skillet, however this is the best "manipulated" foie gras I've had. I liked the round circles of foie gras better than the dome of foie gras parfait, simply because it was richer and had a more natural flavor in my opinion. I really loved the presentation of the appetizer, and how the plate came out with many different flavor combination: pickled onions, apple compote, pomegranate seeds, etc. Also, the little brioche toast it came with was absolutely adorable and deliciously decadent. Filet Mignon with Mashed Potatoes: 8/10 - I got it cooked rare, and it was cooked to perfection. It was small, but the right size for a filet mignon in my opinion, and while the poivre sauce it came with was not my favorite I've had, it was still super enjoyable to eat. The mashed potatoes were also super garlicky and buttery, which I adored, and even the wedge salad was tasty. I left satisfied, and overall, happy with the meal. The only note I'll add is that someone at our table got the rack of ribs, and noted that they were incredibly dry. Just something to keep in mind!

    After driving 5 hours, it was nice to have a restaurant located in the hotel we were staying at…read more we'd had a reservation, but thankfully, it wasn't too busy, even if we had not. I ordered a local beer, Aurore, a raspberry wheat ale from Trois Pistoles. It was delicious. I wanted fish one more time, so opted for the tartare aux deux saumons: two salmon tartare. It was pretty good and the fries and Caesar that came with it were also good. My friend had the vegetarian pizza and liked it. Our only complaint with the restaurant was not about the food: it is that the pop music was so loud, people were shouting at each other at tables to be heard over the din. I feel old complaining about the level of music, but it didn't match the overall restaurant vibe and experience.
