Superb breakfast experience. Service was outstanding. We were even offered drinks in the lobby during our wait for a table. Ambiance was, quaint, lively, and friendly. read more

I dined at La Buchette during the last week of December and am finally sharing my two cents about the experience. The service was great and the atmosphere felt warm and cozy. I was really looking forward to a cheesy onion soup moment, but it wasn't what I expected. The bread and cheese were served on the side, so you don't get that dramatic cheesy pull you're hoping for. The presentation was beautiful, but overall the flavors were just okay for me, it didn't leave a strong impression. I personally felt the seasoning leaned a bit on the bland side, but maybe that's just me having a saltier palate. One thing I would like to note is that their menu changes seasonally, so don't rely too heavily on older reviews because dishes might not be available anymore. read more

Stumbled upon this place while walking around window shopping. Just wanted a little snack to bring back to the hotel. Picked the Linguine Bolognese. It's a very familiar dish so easy to compare. The staff that invited me in was very kind and asked me and my young kids to wait inside away from the cold. He took my order and returned very quickly with my dish. A tiny bit more salty than I'm used to but the kids loved it. Ate almost the entire thing, which is a feat foe them. Plenty of protein in the sauce which added to the flavor. I wanted to stop by again to try another dish but of course as it goes, I did not have time during my short stay in Quebec. read more

La Buchette is a "just ok" spot. It was New Year's Eve when I went, so really busy and we sat at the bar. Service was very good, but the food was a bit underwhelming. I had the burger with bacon and fries. It got the job done but I would rather have eaten at La Buche for a second time that day. read more

We liked it. We needed a place for lunch and planned on eating at 1640 Bistro next door. We arrived at 11:30 and they were serving breakfast only and it would have been another hour to serve lunch. We walked next door to La Buchette and they were serving both breakfast and lunch. Perfect! We got seated at a 2-top outside right away. Our server came by with water and menus right away. I ordered the French Onion Soup and my wife ordered the Breakfast Casserole. The food came out real fast. Less than 10 minutes. The presentation of my soup was unlike I've ever had. Two slices of bread with melted cheese were served on the side. I ended up placing one of them in my soup, then cutting it up. The soup had a decent flavor but it was only served somewhat warm - not hot. Not worth sending back, especially after I'd added the bread slice to it. I ate it all none the less. My wife's casserole was large. The over medium eggs were perfectly done. The casserole ingredients were layered, so it was a bit of a dig to find it all. The flavors were good. If there was a con, it would be there was too much sausage and not enough bacon. Service here was quite pleasant. We decided to order a coffee and soft drink after our meal to hang out here a bit longer before our bus tour started. We'd come back to La Buchette. In fact, tomorrow night, we have reservations for La Buche, a fine dining dinner restaurant within the same ownership group. read more

My friend and I stayed in Old Quebec area. We wandered around to look for a place to eat and found La Buchette (located within Hotel Aubuerge Place d'Armes). We loved it so much that we went back again to eat at La Buchette within the same trip. La Buchette is marketed as "Buvette Québécoise" or "Quebec Refreshment Bar". Their website notes the Cuisine / Type as "Regional - Canadian - French - Bistro - Wild Game - Breakfast - Buvette - Brunch - Great Selection of Cocktails". For Trip 1 (Dinner), I tried their Fish (Artic Char) and a Mezcal Espresso Cocktail. My friend and I shared desserts (Carrot Cake and Almond Croissant). For Trip 2 (Lunch), I tried their Lions Mane Mushroom Dish, Shrimp Wild Rice Salad, and some Red Wine. My friend and I shared a dessert (Chocolate & Maple Cookie). Definitely worth a visit. I loved the Artic Char and the Lions Mane Mushroom entrees. Note: La Buchette is marked as #133 out of #1441 Restaurants in Quebec City on TripAdvisor. read more

We arrived at this touristy restaurant around 4 pm and were limited to a reduced menu that was neither lunch nor dinner. If you don't like raw meat (steak tartare), there weren't many choices that were appealing either. I had the Grandma's Meatball, which was a dense, ground beef patty that seemed full of breading. It tastes okay, but the mashed potatoes and gravy were the items that provided some moisture and flavor. The peas as a side were okay, but nothing to crave again. The other dish we ordered was the beef pot pie. It was very disappointing and had ground beef in a mushy filling. The side salad was large but the dressing was tart. I don't recommend this place, at least not in the afternoon. Prices were high too. read more

If you are visiting Quebec, this restaurant is a must!! I tried the duck carpaccio (recommend by the waiter) and wow, I was so shocked by how DELICIOUS this was. Absolutely mind blown. I am back in the states and have been looking everywhere to find a place that sells this dish haha. Please order this dish, if will not disappoint. The oysters were so fresh and delicious. As an oyster enthusiast, I was very pleased. The beef tartare was also very fresh and amazing as expected. The salad that came with it was also very good. The service here was also excellent as my server gave great recommendations and explanations. read more

Food was ok .. not bad but not great . Was expecting more with all the great reviews here. Oysters were ok not the best and they didn't come on ice. The beef tartare didn't really have lots of flavor and was pretty bland. The service was good though and the ambiance was nice. I think this place is mostly for tourists. Didn't feel a lot of love in the food read more

La Buchette - Oysters and beef tartare - Canadian (New) Near Me - Quebec City, Quebec

This is a decent tourist spot. The location is excellent, especially if you're sitting outside. The food is okay to good. We had the trout, which was good, but it was surrounded by an overwhelming corn mash that filled the plate. We also had the seafood linguine, which was overcooked to being a little pasty. The three large shrimps were excellent but the mussels were dry. As we've found everywhere in Quebec, the servers are very friendly, sincere and professional. The overall experience was good, and we knew we were choosing a tourist spot, so we got what we knew to expect. read more

There were a lot of places we visited in Quebec City but this was one of the top, with their sister company dinner place only being ahead slightly. The food was delicious and maybe the best BLT with egg sandwich ever. Omelette was ranked right behind that with the eggs being cooked perfectly, the 'potatoes' (hash brown to others), and toast with jam were both mouth watering and could have kept eating if there was more. No regrets coming here and the service was very good and friendliest in QC. 5 stars!! read more

In town from the states and wanted something "Quebec". We went here and were happy with our choice, the atmosphere and staff are inviting, and willing to explain the unique dishes. I got the Quebec pie, my friend got the deer tartare. Our appetizer was fois gras (duck liver). All were elegant and tasty. I was impress with the detail of the dishes. This is worth your time. read more

I just wanted to update my experience from this trip. The fish I had for dinner the other night was awful but after hearing about the breakfasts decided to give it another chance. The omelette was fantastic. Soft and filled with goat and delicious Hercule cheese. The potato cake was barely warm but good. Fruit crepes were good also. read more

Excellent! We walked over from Chateau Frontenac and it was fairly early like 7:15 am so we walked right in. My daughter got the BLT tartine. I have never had tomatoes confit and it really made the dish. Her dish won!. It was so so good. I can't wait to come back here. And the bacon was to die for! I ordered the casserole without sausage. It was good but not nearly as good as the tartine. We loved this place. The place is decorated so cute and eclectic. The ambiance feels like upscale casual. Really cute decor. The service staff were awesome and very friendly. Will definitely come back but we also want to try their larger restaurant for dinner, La Buche. read more

Though the breakfast menu is a bit limited, the food was all delicious, filling, and well-portioned. I really recommend the maple syrup crepes, the chocolate sauce is a bit overpowering. We went at 8:30am and it was almost empty, so a morning reservation is probably not needed. Service is fast, everyone was polite, and decor is beautiful. read more

Stopped in for a spritz during their happy hour. Lovely service and lovely atmosphere. The spritzes were refreshing and tasty.

We had an excellent two course lunch at La Buchette with great service. I had the mushroom soup and the lion's mane mushroom entree with butternut purée and my cousin had the salad and the Arctic char with roasted vegetables on top a butternut purée. The food was presented beautifully, tasted delicious and all at a very reasonable price. read more

This restaurant was our first step on a food tour and we had a bite of duck ham and lion's mane mushroom. Both were delicious! I would definitely consider eating at this restaurant if I were back in town. read more

Très bon service à l'accueil et aux tables, merci à Martine et Mike, je recommande à 100%!!!!

We were recommended to this restaurant by our walking tour guide. We planned on going for breakfast as the guide raved about the maple coated bacon. It is very popular, much bigger inside than it looks, but very touristy and crowded. It has an outdoor space in back. Our server was nice, but definitely on the slow side and I don't mean "you're in Canada slow" I mean, just plain SLOW. He was next to our table clearing and re setting while our water and coffee was not refilled. We had to wave him down for refills. I had eggs, potatoes, bread and bacon, which came with a small hot apple bite. My wife had yogurt with fruit and nuts and a side of bacon. The bacon had good flavor but was cut very thick and was somewhat difficult to chew. My bread was cold but the rest of the dish was pretty good. My wife's yogurt was a very large serving, beautifully presented. She loved it. Overall, it was pretty solid but nothing outstanding. Service needed to be better esp with a line out the door. read more
