Was at Ciel! for an anniversary dinner to enjoy the 360 view of the city (90 min for one rotation). The Concorde has one of the best views of the old Quebec and port areas of the city. At night, you can see the sister city, Levis' lights across the river as well as any ships moving along the water. We got the following: - soup of the day x2; with bread and butter - scallop and confit pork belly medley; with maple-garlic herb and daikon vinaigrette, cauliflower, and other veggies - cheesecake; with maple caramel and caramelized pecans - roasted rack of lamb; with artichoke and herb sauce The food was very delicious and the meats all the right amount of tenderness. The scallops were fresh and well seared, all the vegetables still had a great crunch. The service was great, and we enjoyed the ride around the restaurant. Although the night started with a foggy view, by the end of the night we were able to see the city. Staff was not pushy to have us out of the table and we just enjoyed our time out. Although the rotation is slow, you really can feel it moving, it isn't for people who are sensitive to a moving platform. It's like eating on a train or a plane, if you are okay with that, this was a fun experience. Otherwise, visit for the bar experience so you can leave once you are done. Definitely a recommendation, especially if you are staying at the Concorde already! Have a look at their menu before going and/or best to see it at the restaurant as their menu changes often. read more

We had an amazing dinner for our last night in Quebec. The service was great, our waitress checked in regularly, topped of waters and drinks, and made sure we were having a nice time. The kids loved that the restaurant rotated during the meal, it was fun seeing different views during the meal. The food was delicious and drinks were perfect. read more

We wanted to check out the amazing view at this revolving restaurant, but definitely get a reservation online beforehand if you want to dine in here. We came after 130p and were told lunch hour is over. However, we can order drinks and desserts which turned out to be just perfect. Luckily we got a great clear day and had a wonderful view of the city. We got to enjoy some cocktails while sharing desserts with our friends. When you get a perfect sunny day, don't forget to wear some face sunscreen since you are on the 28th floor. Absolutely would recommend anyone going to Québec City to visit Ciel even if just for drinks. Our waiter was super friendly and helpful even though it was his last day working at the restaurant. read more

What an incredible evening! We're here from California. The ambience was wonderful. Our server Louis was better than you could even imagine. We had an allergy in the group and he and the chef made everything to perfection. We so appreciate everything he did for us and how kind everybody was. We made a reservation and we were seated at the correct time. We had a cheese tray, the steak tartare,, the pork chop, And the chicken. The pork chop was probably the moistest chop we've ever had. The steak tartare was so yummy. I couldn't believe it. The chicken was overdone, but not their fault. We had to have it without the sauce. I would recommend this to everyone. Seeing the city at night was lovely. read more

If you're in Quebec City, you must try this restaurant. It's on the 24th floor of the Hotel Concorde. You are able to see across the city - and you're literally moving in a circle while you eat so you can see a full 360 view. The ambience is excellent, the food tracks with the cost. The service was impeccable. Appreciated the wait staff's patience with my intermediate French. My dish was the pork with veggies. My goodness, tender, excellent sauce with the chimichurri! The little guy got the sausage and potatoes with variety of green beans and asparagus. He ate most of it. And hubs got the chicken! No leftovers present. Please make a reservation here and put the cherry on top of your visit to Quebec. read more

Our final evening in Quebec City we wanted to treat ourselves to a fine dining restaurant. While there is no shortage of fine dining restaurants here, I chose this one because of all the others I looked at, it had meal options from the main menu that I thought my little ones would eat. Unbeknownst to me they have a kids menu and it rocks! For $15 they get a beverage, soup of the day, a main (fish, pasta dish or sausage and potatoes dish), and surprise dessert. We opted for the pasta with bolognese sauce and mackerel for our kids. The soup was cream of mushroom and surprise dessert was a log of ice cream coated in some sort of perhaps white chocolate and topped with chocolate sauce, fresh berries, oreo cookies and oreo cookie crumbles. It was beautifully presented. We did not have a reservation and rolled the dice walking in around 7 because they do take some walk-ins, although you should make a reservation if you can on their website. They squeezed us in for 8:30 and took my number down in case we could come back sooner while we took a stroll in the neighborhood. Great neighborhood, by the way! The host was so nice and said she would do her best to get us a nice table by the window, even though I would have been happy wherever and did not specifically request one. We were very lucky to get a window seat. Since the restaurant is at the top floor of a hotel, the view is spectacular. I also discovered that the room rotates, very slowly, so you get a 360 degree view of the city. Service was top notch. Our waitress was very attentive. We even got to see fireworks outside. The entire meal was delicious, as were the cocktails and dessert. Side note: the cocktails are cheap for us NYC people, and in some instances, cheaper than other non fine dining restaurants we had visited while in town. I highly recommend the wild mushrooms appetizer, halibut main course and the steak. Man, that was a huge steak. Wait time in between courses was rather long, however. Maybe the kitchen needed more time to get the food out or it is normal to sit for 2.5 hours for dinner at this place. We did not mind. So maybe if you are in a rush, let the wait staff know. There is 90 minute free parking up until 10pm available along the park adjacent to the hotel and a huge metered parking lot a few blocks away too. When we return to Quebec City, I will definitely come back here. What an experience. read more

A rotating restaurant 30 stories up in Quebec City. My husband picked this place out - the video he watched said go for the view, not the food - and my expectations were admittedly a little low in light of that - but I had absolutely no complaints about the food, which was delicious. The service is maybe a touch on the slow side, but I also think they sort of do that on purpose so you can get the entire 360 degree experience. My husband said he's had better steak, but I enjoyed my chicken dish. Their menu changes kinda frequently so I don't remember the exact name. We went for dinner and it was dark, and it was still a great view. I'm sure brunch is even better. The bartender's choice spritz was very good, and pretty strong. read more

Gorgeous views! This restaurant rotates slowly as you eat and you'll rotate 360 degrees by the time you finish eating. Amazing views of the city and Saint Lawrence River. The best sangria I've ever had! So delicious and went down way too smooth. I loved the charcuterie platter too, and our cheese plate. Everything here is very high quality. Excellent and attentive service too. I recommend making a reservation. read more

SO and I stopped here on our 2nd night in QC after reading some favorable yelp reviews.  It's on the top floor of a hotel and rotates slowly providing a great vantage point of QC. As the SO was drinking a Spritz Tropical and me a lager, the fried burgot came out.  We never had them before and thought they were tasty and crispy, but it took a bit of effort to chew them up.  It was still good to experience them for the 1st time! The next appetizer, wild mushrooms with venison, soon followed.  The venison was cooked medium rare and was accompanied by very tasty wild mushrooms all atop a puree (we think it was parsnip) along with shreds of beet.  A very enjoyable dish! We also had a salad comprised of tomato, a dollop of lemon confit labneh, diced cucumber and spiced pecans sprinkled on top all resting in a pool of delicious pikliz emulsion.  Very light and refreshing! SO had the halibut, which was perfectly cooked and well balanced with pickled carrots, oyster mushrooms, kale and turnips along with a tasty turmeric sunflower puree.  A great combination of ingredients! I had the piglet loin accompanied by swiss chard, black beans and zucchini atop a delicious creamy corn and salse verde around the edge...a surprising combo that worked well together! We ended the dinner with a tasty blueberry cheesecake and a glass of ice wine.  A nice 2 hours well spent (which is the maximum time allowed). Overall, the service, food and ambience were excellent, but the menu is a bit limited and the flavor profiles tame.  Definitley good for a one-time dinner just for the views or an extra special night out! read more

I was a little nervous that this restaurant would be more touristy and less quality but I was pleasantly surprised! I also was a little nervous about getting dizzy from the revolving aspect but that didn't bother me at all. It was very cool to see the city from above in 360. We were there for an hour and a half and did a full circle around. Our server was great and the food was very good! One of the folks I was with said their hot chocolate was one of the best they've had! I appreciated their gluten free bread option and my guests really enjoyed their mushroom omelette and French toast! Their appetizer and dessert options for brunch are limited. read more

Ciel! Bistro-bar - The view of The Frontenac and St Laurence river. - French Near Me - Quebec City, Quebec

Coming here was one of the highlights of my trip in Québec City. It really surpassed my expectations! I had made reservations in advance but had run a little late to my reserved time by 15min due to weekend bus schedules. The staff, however, was accommodating and seated me right away upon my arrival. This was my first time at a rotating restaurant, and I was quite fascinated and loved the concept. Lots of great views of the surrounding area and city during the course of one's meal. To my surprise, the food was also absolutely tasty. The dish I got for a Saturday brunch was the salmon eggs benedict dish and a fruit dish (included) and a couple of lattes. I wanted to come in with low expectations because I feel like sometimes the food isn't as high quality for restaurants that seem too good to be true, but it was the exact opposite here. Food was 10/10 delicious and filling. The staff as well was very kind and attentive, but not overbearing. Absolutely would recommend any going to Québec City to come here (hopefully on a clear day)! I would love to visit again at some point and would absolutely take friends here to impress too! read more

Best view, service and decent food. 1. Reservation: a must. You cannot be seated without one and most people reserve 1 month in advance for window seats. 2. The view: amazing. Absolutely THE BEST VIEW of Quebec City. It's rotating, so from your seat you can get 360 view of the entire city. Best to come 2 hour before the sunset. When it gets dark, you can enjoy the view with your eyes if lucky enough to be seated by the window, no picture will look good when the lights are on aka dark outside. 3. Service: great. 5 stars 4. Food: good but not the best. 3 stars Unfortunately, like all similar establishments, their food is good, but not the best. I did like their bread comes hot. venison tartare: meh cheese platter: sad fish of the day: just okay dessert: not good, didn't even eat it 5. Drinks: 4 stars Mixed drinks were good, just not very good. It truly could've been better All in all, especially if you are a tourist, despite not the best food, this place is still the best and a must try. read more

I'm a simple guy. If I see a revolving restaurant, I go. No questions asked. Most of the time, the views themself make the trip worth it, but every now and then the food takes center stage. Ciel! is the rare hybrid. The best of both worlds. I was able to sneak a last minute reservation at 6:30 despite it being a holiday. Seems like it was meant to be. Little did I know I was about to embark on an unforgettable journey. My family and I began our voyage with the Beef Tataki, Pork Flank, and Leek and Mushroom Cream Soup. The Beef Tataki was extremely flavorful, with a mix of sour(?) + umami sauces along with perfectly seasoned beef pieces. My only complaint would be that I wanted more. Leek + Mushroom Cream Soup was fairly standard but definitely highlighted the both the leek and mushrooms without masking their individual flavors. Pork Flank is an absolute steal and must get. Not only do you get a perfectly juicy, seared pork belly but also escargot that mesh well with the sauce provided. For the entrees, we got the Alaskan Halibut and Chicken Supreme. Chicken Supreme: THE standard I expect now for any chicken. They have somehow managed to get a crust that is slightly charred without sacrificing any moisture, leading to juicy bites of chicken goodness. Those juices coupled with the bbq sauce. You just have to try it to get what I mean. Alaskan Halibut: nothing extremely special but definitely one of the best halibuts I've ever had. For dessert, we got a latte, crème brûlée, as well as a choco-caramel finger. The crème brûlée was to die for (although in a little biased because it is my favorite dessert haha). Great sugar crust that unveils a creamy, rich crème that coats your mouth in sugary goodness. The choco-caramel finger was a hybrid brownie cake. The mouse paired with a densely packed brownie crust is the perfect way to end a meal! Service was impeccable and our waiter was extremely accommodating. The views here are unparalleled and the place is a good escape from the hustle and bustle from below. Ciel! Is a must go if you come to Quebec City and will be a spot I will cherish from a trip here! read more

Highly recommend this place if you're visiting Quebec City for the first time - great service, tasty food, and amazing view of the city. My friend and I came here for dinner as a spur of the moment after being recommended it by our Airbnb host and luckily were able to walk in without a reservation. We ordered the tagliatelle appetizer, fish of the day (walleye), and butcher's choice (smoked brisket). I def think you can't go wrong with any of the menu items, our food was fresh and delicious, and we completed our meal with a creme brûlée. Ambiance was perfect, def somewhere you can sit and enjoy some wine after the meal as well while watching the view. Overall very reasonably priced meal that was well worth the price - we had 2 drinks, an appetizer, 2 entrees, and a dessert and our bill came back ~$75 each. We had the best time! read more

We arrived at 7.30 no rezzie but got a table for two, not a window seat but our table was just as good just a few feet back. We managed an almost complete rotation with 1 cocktail each - a Baie St. Paul for Pablo and a Last Word for me. Both were delicious. We could not resist adding the mushroom / burrata on toast $20 . A small tasty nibble split between us. The food quality was excellent. Service was prompt and efficient. Ambiance is all about the view and it's a 360 corker of the city. Time well spent . read more

This is a must visit if you're not from Quebec. Our group of 7 was visiting from the US and this was one of the best parts of our entire trip. It was very easy to get a reservation online or by calling. When we arrived we were seated at an amazing table by a window so we could enjoy the view. We went at night for the city lights and it was the right move, absolutely stunning! The service was really friendly and fast. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks here very much. I'm celiac and have to eat gluten free, and they were able to accommodate this very easily here. I wish I could remember what the soup was but I had the soup of the day on the menu, and it was so delicious. For my entree I had the beef check and it was one of the best meals I've had. This really was such an amazing part of our trip and I would recommend it to anyone! read more

If you're a tourist, ciel is a must-try. It's a rotating restaurant, what else can you ask for?? The meal wasn't ridiculously expensive, I thought it was actly a bit of a steal for good food and a 360 view. I got the red wine chicken. The chicken was moist and juicy. I can taste the red wine soaked in. My dad got the piglet loin which he thought was just ok. The sauce could use more flavor. My bf got the piece of steak, he was def still hungry afterwards. I really loved the dessert though. We got cardamom creme brulee and you can taste the cardamom. The service was rly nice tho a tad bit slow. & The restaurant was a bit colder than I would like it to be but overall, still a very impressive meal. I would highly recommend! read more

Revolving restaurant. Great unique dishes. Skyline views of the plains of abraham and grand allee boulevard. AMAZING LOCATION. I came here with family, friends and with guys. Everytime I enjoyed myself. The experience itself was worth the price of the meal. The meals here were not as expensive as meals I've had in other revolving restaurants in other cities. Most dishes ranged from $20 to $50 for appetizers and main entrees. It wasnt cheap but it was still affordable considering the atmosphere and service. The service was top notch. The servers are friendly and really great at their jobs. I loved the desserts here. Dont miss out on any of them. They are all spectacular and are made in house! I loved the variety of main dishes. There was beef tongue, Alaskan cod, steak, duck and lamb. In quebec there is not many places which offer these dishes or even make them properly. But this restaurant was well worth it. Tip: time your visit for daytime before sunset so you get day and night time views! And check to see if theres anything special going on. You can see the fireworks from here or feq at the plains of abraham! read more

Great place to go for drinks and revolve! You have a great view! The "bar" is a section of tables set aside for people who are having drinks. We saw people order food too. It is not an actual bar you sit at. The bar area of tables is just like the rest of the restaurant and revolves. Drinks are reasonably priced. Service was excellent. Takes over an hour to make a full rotation. The bathrooms are down one flight of stairs. People are dressed casual and semi professionally. read more

The view from the rotating top floor is worth going on its own. Reservations are required. The service is top-notch. The menu is very interesting and very limited, like most upper scale restaurants. Very nice wine, bier, and cocktails selection. Appetizers: The cheese tray is good. The wild mushroom dish is good. For the main course: they featured Halibut, char, NY strip steak, chicken, and pork dishes (only one of each) to select from. Each read quite fancy and very much wanting to be gourmet. (Now, a tip: if you grew up thinking chicken and pork should be cooked through (i.e., beyond medium or rare) like we were raised, then suggest avoiding those to be safe. Just a personal preference on our part, not a restaurant critique.) Sadly, they did not have NY strip as per menu and offered a 7 oz flat iron steak instead, so we passed on that as well. The char was interesting. As for the desserts: they had a nice selection, but ... after a very lovely day of walking all around old Quebec and sightseeing, we went with a nice Irish coffee. The nighttime view from the restaurant is truly wwonderful. Quebec Old Town area is a treasure trove and s personal fav. There are many great places to eat in Quebec and so much history to see. Travel, see, eat, love, and enjoy life! read more

Beautiful view!! Most horrible food my friend and I have experienced in all our travels. Overpriced and horrible. Stay away.

I highly recommend that you call to reserve in advance for their weekend brunch or else you won't be able to experience this. We were genuinely surprised by this spot, located at the top floor of a hotel and near the citadelle. They take sanitary measures very seriously and the team of hosts and servers are very professional and nice! Once you are seated at your table, you will notice that the entire restaurant rotates! So you will have turned 360° by the end of your meal for a full view of the entire city of Québec and the St-Lawrence river, how amazing is that!? Their brunch menu is also very generous. You choose your main dish, afterwards you can choose a drink, an entrée and you get dessert (everything is included in the price of the main dish). For 3 people, we paid 76$ which was a great price for the quality of food and the spectacular view that you get. Definitely recommend this place just for the view on a sunny day. Will be back here for supper next time I visit Québec city. read more

Went here on a beautiful sunny Sunday where skies were clear to get a nice panoramic view of the city. I had no idea the restaurant revolves which is cool so you were able to see all angles. It's a good deal for brunch for what you get. I got the drip coffee which is unlimited refills then for appetizer I got the yogurt with blueberry compote and Canada's maple syrup which actually wasn't too sweet or maybe the dark coffee helped neutralize lol. My fam and I tried the different entrees as pictured which were all good. The only critique i have is the steak not being that tender. The service was also decent being attentative with refilling water/coffee but just took a while with the entrees where we noticed other tables getting their food before us which was fine since we wanted to get the 360 view anyways. I'd recommend trying if you can get a resy. I was lucky to find a slot while we were visiting! read more

TL;DR (or BLUF) version: If you're a family with kids, don't bother. Really really REALLY wanted to like this place, but they wouldn't allow us the opportunity to give them our money. We got here at 9:20am on Saturday, just 20 minutes after the place opened. Needless to say there were PLENTY of tables open, but according to the young hostess, none that could accommodate a party of 6. We asked how long we'd have to wait, and she said it was "impossible". Asked her a few more times and she made it a point to say it was impossible that day without a reservation. I asked if reservations were required, and she said no. We then asked if we could be seated separately at two different tables, but again said it was IMPOSSIBLE and then tried to explain some B.S. excuse about how they only have like 1 table for kids! FOR REAL? Luckily there was a restaurant downstairs, JA-JA, that we ate at instead, so our drive and parking fee wasn't in vain. read more

Food was a bit pricey for then portion served but the service was excellent and the views amazing.

We came here for lunch. Made reservation three days in advance. Last time I visited Quebec City I would like to have dinner at Ciel but it was fully reserved. They have inexpensive lunch menu. For 20-25$, you get soup or salad, main course and coffee or tea. Lunch menu dessert is 4$ extra. There are also snack menu. The view was marvellous. Any dish with this view gets a plus star. I had quail and my husband had poached salmon. They were good, nothing spectacular. The desserts we had were éclaire with mango and chocolate. They were tasty and rich. Will recommend it to my friends. read more

My husband and I had reservations at sunset two weeks ago. We had to see the view in this revolving restaurant on the 28th floor. We had a window table which I requested several weeks in advance when planning our road trip to Quebec. We didn't know the food was going to be so tasty!! It was our wedding anniversary and wow!! Yum! We had Arctic Char, so good. When, we come back to Quebec someday as we are several provinces away, we will definitely come back here!! read more

Many touristy restaurants like this are subpar. The view is spectacular, but the food is just OK. That is not the case here. We went for brunch and enjoyed spectacular food as well as terrific service and ambience. My husband had the steak and eggs and truly enjoyed them. And I had the brunch platter, and was expecting too much food, which I did get. However, the food that I got was incredible. I did not know what creton was, but it was delicious and I spread it over the ciabatta toast and it was delicious. It was a chore to sample everything served to me, but all the flavors were delicious. Even though the restaurant was packed, the service was terrific and, neither of us were anxious to leave at the end of the meal. Two tips: make a reservation well ahead because Ciel fills up and valet parking is available at the Concorde and is the best way to handle your car in this crowded area of the city. We can't wait to get back to Quebec City and Ciel in particular. Nous serons de retour bientôt. read more

This is a great restaurant for first time visitors! With the 360 views of Quebec City, this cant be beat. The service was outstanding and the food was excellent.
