    L'Atelier is a great spot to have a few drinks, dance, and have fun with friends. I made the unfortunate mistake of stopping by on the way home after a day at the spa and was greeted with loud music and an extremely crowded bar. If you're in the mood to party, L'Atelier is a great spot. The food was surprisingly really good. We ordered the chicken caesar salad to share and licked the plate clean!

    Great atmosphere, friendly staffs and great service. Tartare was awesome except fries and croutons. Dip Duo was tasty. friends love their cocktails. I had virgin Jack Sparrow but it just tasted like a coca cola with lemon. Ambience was really nice and we had great service and time. The restroom was a surprise that everyone in our table all went to take a look :D.

    Babaganoush , hummus dips

    Second time in Quebec City and 2nd time at this place.. it was alright but obviously first time was better.. service : almost inexistent I felt like they forgot us in the back. Food: ok .. nothing special but their sister resto (ophelia) was a 5/5 so wierd We stayed in the area so we walked it instead I don't recommend coming by car because there's lots of no park zones and I watched people get tickets all night lol The food : burrata was good just lacked vinaigrette on the arugula beside it wish there was some acidity My wife had the duck confit Salad it was amazingwish i got that lol My flank steak was 2/5 no seasoning and overcooked Overall it was mediocre for such a fancy place Not sure ill be back

    Beer of the moment for November goes great with tartare

    Excellent food and excellent drinks. Went with a group of 8 and took the front window on a very snowy night. Appetizers of stuffed olives, some with almond and some with pepperoni. A vegetable plate with eggplant and hummus and crudités. Some onion rings to share. These were really good. Everyone got a type of tartare but I got the vegetarian one. Deliciously light and crisp as well as acidic with Granny Smith apples and tomatillos as well as little hunks of cheddar.

    Filet mignon was amazing, the way the presented was very nice, the poutine was on point and the Mac and cheese lobster was really good , I think it's one of the better lobster I ever had. They let me take my dog in the outside dinning, very nice waitress. I can't complain.

    This place is situated near the Fields of Abraham Museum along with many other restaurants. We stopped in for lunch and enjoyed it. The weather was great and we ate outside. Servers were pleasant and the food was excellent. The salmon tartare was real good.

    SO DELICIOUS! We went on a Friday night and this place was packed. My husband and I waited about 25 minutes for a table and when we got to the table the service was pretty quick. Burrata - was so yummy! As you can tell from the picture i forgot to take a photograph before starting to eat lol. Beef burger and house salad - burger was solid. I wasn't the biggest fan of the salad so maybe would stick to the other sides that come with the burger. Chicken burger with Poutine - so good! Loved the poutine. The gravy was delicious. Amaretto Sour - also really delicious. Couldn't taste the alcohol it was blended in really well. Churros - Not the best. A little too sugary and the chocolate sauce was not good. The caramel sauce was a little tooo sweet. Would try maybe another dessert.

    Hidden within a row full of other restaurants, this one stood out to us mostly because of the menu and the staff who greeted us as soon as we walked by. We were served by Francois, who was super friendly and helpful when it came to deciding what we should order. My friend and I both ordered the poutine which is a typical French dish in this area. I guess we just weren't fans of french fries drenched in gravy, but the cheese itself was amazing. We sat outside since the Ambiance was really nice and the weather was just amazing. I went inside the restaurant a couple times to use the bathrooms just because they look super...and to wash my hands.

    Buffalo Carpaccio, ham

    Had the appetizer with buffalo mozzarella, capriccio de buffalo, ham, Brie cheese and other cheese. It was wonderful. We had the dark-hoppy beer-- Vox Populi and my friends has different whiskeys. It was a pleasurable place, Then at 10:00PM they had live music.. the crowd was fun, the bar tenders were great, then even spoke to me in Spanish. Next time I need to try the main dishes, but for appetizers, and a bar hopping night out- it was excellent.

    Its almost midnight on a Saturday night, and you just finished checking into your hotel. Where are you going to get a good meal at this late hour in Quebec City? Luckily L'Atelier's kitchen is open until 2:00am on Friday and Saturday, and serves quality food with a warm Quebecois smile. The lovely hostess and tattoo'ed waitress both gave us a friendly welcome on our first night in French Canada. This was the complete opposite experience we had in France three years ago... $27.50 Salmon Tartare 8oz...was this invented in France? Or Hawaii? No clue...but this raw salmon tasted fresh and delicious enough. $23 Steak Frites...I had to stick with the classic for my first meal in French-Canada. Simple, cooked perfectly, and delicious. $7 Churro Dessert...far from Mexico, but still good enough with lovely dipping sauces. We also spent about $30 in booze...we're on vacation! We sat outside in a nice heated outdoor patio, but on Fridays and Saturdays the main interior becomes a loud night club. This looked like a popular spot for locals, so give it a try if you still have energy.

    2 salmon tartare - 8 oz

    We came here principally for cocktails, and ending up staying for dinner. They have a *fabulous* menu of cocktails: I had a Boulevardier which you rarely see on a menu, my wife had a nice gin/tonic with cucumber puree which came in a unique syringe (see below). The drinks were excellent. Several of us had the salmon tartare which was *really* good. The fries were excellent, the salmon was flavorful - the greek yogurt they add to it really gives it a nice tang. Another of our party had the beet salad which was very generously proportioned, and she really enjoyed it. Our waiter was great - we had trouble making up our minds when we first sat down, but he was very patient returning several times to take our drink and food orders. I like the ambiance of this place. You sit quite close to your neighbors, but people were very friendly and it was nice to engage in conversation. If you are looking for good/creative cocktails and great light food this would be a great choice.

You make a separate reservation and then enter through a black door and green curtain. Service is phenomenal. The bartenders and weight staff, as well as manager, all greet and serve you. They are extremely knowledgeable, and I love their forward thinking. They only use local ingredients for their drinks. If it doesn't grow in Canada or Quebec, they do not use it. So they do not use things like citrus. Instead, they come up with other ways to bring the flavor into their cocktails and food. And definitely try some food! We went for the drinks, but the food blew our minds. We got some mixed tapa plates and loved it all- especially the homemade beef jerky. The back patio is so nice during the summer. And the inside is a definite vibe. Can't wait to go back!

That means, no basic ingredients like citrus are used. That's basically telling the bartender they cannot make 99% of cocktails in mind and have to take risks to make something tasty happen. That concept in itself is a recipe to create things that will be genuinely and authentically Canadian. In other words, experimentation at its finest. Opened in 2024 by the team behind Quebec City's only 2 Michelin starred restaurant, Taniere, this is now the spot to be for those in the know. So, how is trial and error going of crafting something genuinely Canadian? Cocktails are superb on both taste and presentation. The food is remarkably plated with extremely high quality ingredients. Everything tastes excellent. If that's not enough, the entire interior looks like a very private club and the team of servers and bartenders is superb and welcoming.

With hail and…read moresnow hitting my face, my mission was to find a place for my family to eat when almost every place is either closed or full. One lady in lower town took special delight in telling me "sorry, we're all full tonight", while I stood there with numb fingers and a raw red face where hail hit my face moments before. I passed Alphonse many times the last few days but tonight, instead of just passing through, i stopped in to look inside as another customer held open the door waiting for me to enter as he exited. So naturally, I went in. I was afraid they were about to close, but the hostess was welcoming and with a warm smile, showed us to our seats. The food was so good! We ordered the French Onion soup. My kids loved that the bread in the soup was still crunchy and not soggy. The baked Brie was a delicious start of what is to come next. My entree was the low temperature salmon. It was the chef's special (they call it inspiration of the chef). It was a salmon dish that is lukewarm. The salmon was so tender, it melted like butter in my mouth. It was a decent portion too. We got dessert to share- crème brûlée- also good! Ambience is smart casual.

We came down the cutest alleyway and found Alphonse which was not very busy at all for 8pm and the menu interested me. I ordered the scallops with risotto and it's honestly one of my best meals I had in my trip of 4 days eating out for both lunch and dinner. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the risotto had such a great flavor, so creamy. My dad got the burger, which was actually sliced beef brisket but he said the flavors were great and the meat was tender. I and a gin cocktail that also tasted great but can't remember the name The sever was efficient not overly friendly, hence why it only got 4 stars but I'd recommend the food here to anyone.
