Another excellent quality lunch place in QC near Leborgneuf. I was brought here by a work colleague…read morewho has frequented the establishment for the last few years. Selection is based off fresh sandwich and wraps with your choice of salad. I went with the agneau (lamb) ciabatta served in a sweet type of sauce with a mixed salad. The lamb was delicious. Salad was equally good as well. Fresh veggies at lunch makes me feel less guilty. The lamb was heavy. Like pulled pork kind of heavy. But it was mixed in a very delicious sauce. The ciabatta was a bit crunchier than I prefer. It was like eating a sandwich made from birch bark. You know the feeling when you eat a sandwich and it scrapes the roof of your mouth? Well that's how crunchy the bread was. Not fun. Overall this was a small negative in an otherwise flavorful and delicious meal. I much prefer these kinds of establishments than eating Subway blehhh.

I'm leaving a review for La Mangue Verte Caterer because I think honest reviews are critical. And…read moreif I had read this review before I chose La Mangue Verte to cater my wedding, I would have chosen another caterer. First off, let me say that Lysanne and her catering team of cooks and servers are nice people with a lot of heart. Their menu is wonderful and their food is gourmet and delicious. However, Lysanne's poor customer service, client communication and event management leading up to and during our wedding reception was both stressful and disappointing. I'm giving them 2 stars overall to reflect that poor service. I have many examples but here are just a few- they changed the contract and increased our price a week before the wedding, they did not deliver the guest table set up they agreed to do, they forgot to serve my groom and I champagne for our toast, they were very slow to serve the meals with just 32 guests, they brought a broken chocolate fountain for our dessert which forced us to change our event timing for the evening. La Mangue Verte insists they are an experienced, premium caterer but they seem pretty scattered and unprofessional, with a lot of bugs to work out. The worst is that Lysanne was not open to hearing our feedback but instead blamed the problems on ongoing 'misunderstandings,' despite the fact that I had excellent experiences with all our other wedding vendors. To be fair, I think La Mangue Verte deserves 5 stars for the food quality and 1 star for poor service, which averages to 3 stars. But I wouldn't knowingly choose a wedding caterer that's anything less than stellar in food and service and neither should you. _____________________________________________________________________________ Je laisse un commentaire pour La Mangue Verte Traiteur parce que je pense que les revues honnêtes sont critiques pour éclairer nos choix. Si j'avais lu cet avis avant que je choisisse La Mangue Verte comme traiteur pour mon mariage, j'en aurais choisi un autre. Tout d'abord, permettez-moi de dire que Lysanne et son équipe de cuisiniers et de serveurs sont des gens sympas avec beaucoup de cœur. Leur menu est merveilleux et leur nourriture est gastronomique et délicieuse. Cependant, la gestion des services à la clientèle est pauvre. La communication entre nous et Lysanne avant et pendant notre réception de mariage était à la fois stressante et décevante. Je leur donne 2 étoiles pour refléter ce mauvais service. J'ai beaucoup d'exemples mais en voici quelques-uns... Ils ont changé le contrat et augmenté nos prix une semaine avant le mariage. Ils n'ont pas livré le montage de la table d'hôtes tel que prévu. Ils ont oublié de nous servir, moi et mon époux, le champagne pour notre toast... Le service était très lent et nous n'avions seulement que 32 invités... La fontaine de chocolat était non-fonctionnelle pendant plusieurs minutes pour notre dessert, ce qui nous a obligé à changer notre calendrier d'événements pour la soirée. La Mangue Verte insiste qu'ils sont un traiteur de première classe très expérimenté cependant ils nous ont semblés très mélangés et non professionnels, avec beaucoup d'améliorations à apporter à leur prestation. Le pire est que Lysanne n'a pas été ouverte à accepter nos commentaires, mais plutôt blâmé les problèmes sur des simples " malentendus ", malgré le fait que j'ai eu une expérience positive et excellente avec tous les autres fournisseurs de notre mariage. Pour être honnête, je pense que La Mangue Verte mérite 5 étoiles pour la qualité de la nourriture et 1 étoile pour un service médiocre, qui est en moyenne 3 étoiles. Mais je ne voudrais pas choisir sciemment un traiteur de mariage qui est rien de moins qu'excellent dans la nourriture et le service et je crois bien que vous non plus.

Food all looked great…read more Not all food tastes great. Perhaps more time spent seasoning vs plating would have done this location some good. Fish was overcooked. Shepherds pie tasted just of mashed potatoes. My son's 2 inches of salmon was so tiny, even little him laughed at it. Kids didn't like the homemade ketchup. And, gah, they were so slow with every course. Again, I wondered if the labor spent in the kitchen was used wisely. What were they doing back there? No, we would not return.

My wife and I were excited to eat at Cochon Dingue in Levis. I saw a few locations in downtown…read moreQuebec City and my wife liked the cute pig statues out front. Also when I got back to the hotel, I looked at some notes of things to do in Quebec City and a friend had recommended the downtown Cochon Dingue a few years ago. Turned out there was a location downstairs right next to the lobby of our hotel, which is the Levis branch. As of 2026, there are apparently 6 branches in Quebec City and one in Montreal. The cocktails were great. 5/5. But not everything on the menu was equally good. My wife's French Onion soup was 5/5 easily, though I don't often eat that dish. My escargot was tasty but basically the usual canned escargot and the tomao sauce on the bread was too sweet - sort of an Ontario pizza sauce style. 3.5/5. I ordered steak frites and while the steak was edible it was overcooked medium to medium well. I could have cooked the steak better. Fries were lukewarm for both me and my wife which is sort of a sin in my book. The wife got chopped chicken on toasted bread with some sort of gravy. Her dish was not good. Bread tasted kinda weird as did the gravy though edible. Neither of us ate the chicken which tasted kind of old. Creme brulee for dessert was good. Except for the chicken my wife and I ate everything. Would I come back here for a brunch to try their work at a different meal Yes. Would I try a different branch if I was in Quebec City. Yes. Would I come back here for dinner? No, I would not. More likely to hit up a local McDonald's or A&W's or Normandin's or just hit up IGA for some snacks.
