Not only which cuisine to choose from but where to go out of the touristy area as there are many neighborhoods. We were quite pleased with our selection at Bistro la Goulette. The walk took longer than anticipated from the funicular but we ventured through sections of the city viewing night sites such as Fontaine de Tourny. The menu was filled with salads, typical falafel platters & other main dish with lamb, fish & vegetarian. The decor is lovely & staff so attentive & friendly. The delicious meal was topped off with hot mint tea & sweet baklava. Visit for lunch or dinner in this attractive neighborhood of Quartier Saint-Jean-Baptiste.

The food came out in the lovely traditional clay pots that got us all excited.

The dishes came with choice of dessert and mint tea as well so it was such a good deal. Out waiter was polite and attentive. I highly recommend this place and plan to revisit if we are in town again

This place is awesome. However no plates, just sandwiches…read more And boy what sandwiches they are! Real doner for chicken and lamb shawarma. Falafel was home made and a really tasty recipe. Hummus was very solid. The sandwich wraps are crispy on the edges but soft in the middle just like they serve in the middle east.

However the owner was very nice and it was clean seemed clean and there were some nice halloween decorations! You could tell some thought was put into the resto. Speaking with the proprietor he was courteous asked me what I would like. I chose the mixed plate and I asked if I could add a few falafel balls on and he said of course! He asked if he could charge me $2 for 2 falafel balls. Also was I decided on some Baklava for dessert. The mixed plate was fresh, a good mix of rice, meat and vegetables. With it I had a tiny bit of garlic sauce and also some hummus. The falafel balls were delicious! A tad crunchy and very vibrant with excellent falafel ball spice. The baklava to end it off was nice and crunchy, soft and chewy at the same time with a nice honey flavour! I'd rather give my money to a guy like this who you can tell is making his best effort to make a living than a big corporation! Food was different than Montreal Lebanese but good none the less! Overall I'd say it was a 3.5/5 but the friendly nature bumps it up to a 4 for me!

The vegetarian plate was very good the hummus, carrots, and tabouli were delicious. The only problem I had was that the falafel was microwaved and it was sort of dry.

Overall, it was a very filling meal and I was pleasantly surprised that there was good lebanese food in Quebec City.

My family was visiting Quebec and it was our second day. We were looking for a spot that served…read moreshawarmas and found this spot. Walking in, it was smaller and only one person was serving. It did not look dirty or messy, was clean by since you have to take steps down to get in. No windows it was dark inside but there are chairs to sit outside. The disappointment here is the food. The person serving was actually super nice but the food was not authentic in how the chicken or the beef was seasoned and cooked, same with the garlic sauce and hummus. It was definitely not authentic so that was very disappointing especially for the price range. I would say, look for another spot for shawarmas as the taste here is lacking.

There was a smear of maple jam under the patty that gave it a hint of sweetness that paired well with the salty cheese. The bun soaked up the juices nicely and wasn't too heavy. I would definitely come back for the burger!

Darn you Canada! Darn you and your insane good ability to have foods made better than in the Yay…read moreArea! Ha ha ha! You'll know why I'll type this in a bit. Cochon Dingue, The Crazy Pig in French, is a chain of Quebec Provence French restaurants that according to their site combines bistro refinement with the feel of a local laid back atmosphere. It just so happens that I'm typing a review for the original location on Quebec City's Champlain and Traversiers intersection. Of course, you'll see both English and French on the menus, and I felt bad that my French is horrible as I visited Quebec City and Montreal, but remember. San Jose and the Bay Area as a whole are Spanish speaking areas given its history, not French, and while I'm at it, Tagalog and Spanish are way more similar than Tagalog and French. It is nice that the Toronto cousin driving us around can still speak it to a point though. Before I forget, do realize that though there are two entryways, only one of them is really walkable, as the other's closed off. As I insert the old "Yes guys, the ladies are cute" and "Yes ladies, the guys are cute" statements pair, I notice how the place has that simple old school French charm, and I get that hospitality that will always stick with me. I wish I can remember what drink I had as it is pretty, but I do remember ordering a Quebec City pork sandwich (I need to coordinate after all as Mr. John Witherspoon would have wanted) and a pavlova dessert along with the group ordering a deluxe poutine. Oh, remember the "Darn you and your insane good ability to have foods made better than in the Yay Area!" statement I typed up, the second statement of this review? This is in regards of the pavlova. So, the first time I had a pavlova was at an Oakland/Berkeley Japanese restaurant called Iyasare (which I actually reviewed). I told our server that I had a pavlova in/near Oakland, and she asked me to see if theirs is better. Normally, I don't like nuts of some sort with berries in desserts, but this place made me actually like the format because a pavolva isn't so much of a guilt dessert, and with this in mind, I developed now the fondness of nuts with fruits with low guilt/guilt free desserts. I still don't like nuts with fruits in desserts, but that now only applies to guilty desserts. Our server went back to our table and asked if she and everyone else at Cochon made a better pavlova than the one at Iyasare. Seeing that I couldn't lie because Canada, I told her yes, which had her giddy. Go be giddy young lady! Yay Canada getting another food victory! The flaw. Seeing that "They made a better pavlova than my fellow Yay Area residents!" isn't a legit flaw, though my one visit was and is memorable, the one flaw the various locations have in general if I should even call it one is that they add Swiss cheese to their Philly cheesesteak sandwiches. I get that it's to have a healthy cheese, and French is spoken in Switzerland, but adding Swiss to the sandwich is a Philadelphia no-no. Cochon Dingue is quite a fabulous place. If it weren't for the perfect score Toronto places I reviewed, Fran's and Makilala (as Tsujiri is shown all over Canada, which is why I didn't type it up), this would have been my favorite Canadian restaurant. To Canadian residents not in Toronto, I'm sorry that none of your beloved restaurants will ever be my top Canadian spot, but remember. Toronto has the most Filipinos of all of your cities, and of course, I'll have that attachment like they do. At least you can hang your hat on how you have a place that makes a better pavlova than my fellow Bay Area residents! So, for people not from Canada, go check the place out, as it's that good! +/Cochon Dingue is cleverly divine for having some of the best hospitality I experienced, the simple old French charm and really good food. -/"You can't put Swiss cheese in Philly's classic sandwich, everyone!"

Stopped here for lunch during our tour with about 50 minutes to eat before catching our St…read more Lawrence River cruise. After a long morning, I was starving and needed something substantial. I ordered the half rack of ribs, which was a mixed bag. The flavor was good, but several ribs were so burnt they were completely inedible--straight to the discard pile. They came with a well-dressed Caesar salad featuring seasoned croutons and delicious shaved bacon, plus sliced fried potatoes that were crispy and not greasy in the least. The thick layer of BBQ sauce wasn't quite my style--I'm a dry rub girl--but I was too hungry to care much. No photos because I devoured everything. My dining companion had a chicken sandwich she raved about. She ordered a Nordic spritz while I indulged in some Quebec cider. Honestly, I expected more pork options given the restaurant's name, but they fed us quickly and efficiently, which was exactly what we needed. No real complaints except for those burnt ribs. The interior has eclectic, cool-looking decor that's worth checking out. Our waitress provided quick and efficient service as well.
