We'd just arrived in Percé and were looking for a local place to eat that had of course, the array…read moreof seafood we'd come to devour. Reviews had looked pretty good, so we decided to check them out. We were not disappointed. We were swiftly seated (thankfully, not the height of high season yet). We ordered local beers: my friend got the Gringo, a and I got the Cap Gaspé, a delicious Weizen. We started with an order of a half dozen raw oysters: they were succulent and sweet. We could have easily blown $100CA just on eating oysters. They were that good. She ordered the fried flounder tacos for dinner while I ordered the seafood stew. My God, it was to die for-sublime, came to mind. The flounder pieces were so tender, they melted in my mouth. The lobster, scallops and shrimp were perfectly cooked and the broth was spectacular. We still had a little hunger, so we ordered the beignets (Pogo) of crab. So good. Service was excellent: served with smiles and a great sense of humor. We could have eaten here every day, the meal was so good. It's a definite must for dining in Percé.

Highly recommended! The restaurant was busy and full of life. Our server was very attentive and helpful. If you're in Percé you need to check it out.

I was disappointed by the food in the region which were very overpriced, small portion and taste being bad. Yet this restaurant is the exception, exceptionally good. The place was busy, we are walk in customer at the time it opens for the day. Reserved tables already have a line up, and the walk in customers also lined up. Eventually, we couldn't get a table, but was arranged with a reservation 1 hour later. The town has lot of gift shops which the time flew and we got in before we got hungry. The service was awesome and attentive. Very friendly staffs and always being helpful. We ordered appetizers and our main meals. We were excited as the reviews and photos all looked great. The fish soup was full of fresh seafood ingredients, a bit too salty and it reminded me of some Asian styled fish soup. But overall not too bad a way to try the local seafood and fishes. The octopus and hummus was not a supreme appetizer as well. As I compared to the octopus I had in Portugal which cooked tender and tasty. Even compared to the octopus I used to get from Costco was more tender as well. However, the mix of hummus to the dish was good, and the hummus was really good! What shine was the main dishes. The lobster was fresh and the lobster risotto was tasty. I wished there were more risotto. The seafood pasta however outshine everything. The pasta cooked Al dente, the sauce was full of seafood flavor and mixed perfectly together. The tiramisu as a finish was too sweet and a bit soggy. But overall a very good experience and probably the best seafood restaurant in the region considering the ingredients, taste, service, restaurant ambiance and price.

Location: In the Riotel…read more The place: The restaurant is quite big and offers a great view of the fleuve. It's nothing fancy - very casual. The goods: I was in Percé for a few days so had breakfast here every morning. I had two eggs with sausage and potatoes + coffee. The breakfast is solid - I particularly liked the potatoes, which were tasty and not greasy. The coffee was pretty great for hotel coffee! I found the portions to be decent. Service: The wait staff in the restaurant are really nice and friendly. They make you feel welcome - thanks ladies! Price: On par with most breakfast places. Also, if you're an early riser like me, these guys open at 7 a.m. just in time to take care of the rumbly in my tumbly =-D

We stopped in at a random hour and were able to get a table. The goods: Very basic food. We ordered the shrimp guédille and while fresh, it lacked flavour. There was no seasoning whatsoever. The hot dog bun was toasted but I don't think anything was added to it. The fries were frozen. The meal was OK but honestly, there are better places to go to. Portions were small. Service: Very friendly. Price point: STEEP. It cost $30 for two people. Very overpriced for what you get.

It was quite unassuming - a quiet-looking building lit with an "open" sign & with a small sign by road but otherwise unannounced (we wouldn't have found it if not for Google). Beef cheek was pretty soft & quite tasty. The beef taste was quite strong. Seafood Poutine was decent. The fries were pretty crispy. The sauce was mild even for seafood poutine. There was quite a lot of seafood. The curds were OK.

My partner and I dined at this establishment twice, on two consecutive evenings. Although the food…read morewas really good on both occasions, the service was inconsistent. The first evening was great. We were seated promptly, our orders were taken fairly quickly and our dishes arrived soon afterwards. On our second evening, we kind of had the opposite experience. We had made reservations for 7pm, but when we arrived, we were made to wait outside in line... in the rain. 13min later, we were let in. When we made reservations earlier that day, we had asked for seats at the bar. Instead, we were seated at a small table next to the bar, as the bar was full. I had ordered a beer and when the waitress came back for our food orders, she bumped into the table and spilled some of my drink. No apologies given. Just an awkward "oops!" on her part. Overall, it seemed like the staff seemed overwhelmed that evening and service suffered as a result. All of that said, the place has a lot of potential and I'm more than willing to give them another try.

Beyond that its not worth checking out. If you are willing to pay for an amazing view then you will. You will pay for cheap food and drinks at outrageous prices so that you can sit there and enjoy the view. I ordered the lobster roll which came out on 2 hot dog buns. How much did I pay? $20 dollars! $20 dollars for something I could have made for myself for half the price (at least) and could have then gone and sat at one of the free park benches that were a few hundred yards away. That didn't upset me though because even though they came on hot dog buns they still tasted pretty good. $20 dollars good? No. But I was paying for the view right? Then my margarita came. I can honesty say I have never spent more for a magarita ($13) and I have never had a more disgusting margarita in my life. Again I thought to myself "You are paying for the view". Then I went to pay. Between my Wife and I we bought the lobster roll, a personal pizza, a margarita, and an iced tea. Grand total with tip came to $75. I was so happy to be on vacation and in Perce that the price didn't phase me. Then the waiter told me that they didn't have a credit card machine. In other words I had to pay outrageous prices for my food and my wifes food, get the worst margarita I have ever tasted (which was also less then an shot of tequila from my recollection) and then I couldn't even pay for my $75 dollar bill with a credit or debit card but had to pay in cash. My final verdict. Save your money. Is the view amazing? Yes! But you can get the same view for free if you walk down the beach for 2 minutes. The food tasted good but I wouldn't have paid half the price I did anywhere else for the same food. To top it off I had to pay in cash which is something I don't like to do if i don't have to. I give this place 2 stars for the view seulement. There is no reason why any person should ever agree to eat here just for the price alone. Learn from my misfortune and steer clear. The rest of my experience on the mainland of perce was not much different but my time taking a cruise around the rock and the Island of Ile Bonaventure were quite the exception. My final verdict is don't eat or stay in Perce. Stay and eat elsewhere and you will not feel like you just got screwed out of your money. The sites and tours are really cool but the restaurants and cabins/hotels (especially this one) are not worth even a second of your time. Disgruntled traveler

Location: Inside the Hotel La Normandie, in the village of Percé. I would say that parking is…read moremainly for guests as the car park seemed small, but I'm not sure if the hotel has parking elsewhere. The place: The restaurant is in a large section of the hotel, with plenty of windows, offering a fabulous view of the rock and the fleuve. I particularly appreciated that the tables are spaced out, which means that you aren't sharing dinner with strangers. The decor is what I'd refer to as "classic" and elegant. If you really want to dine here, I suggest reserving a table in advance. We lucked out - we stopped by one afternoon to see if they had any tables free for the same evening, and we were able to reserve one for 5 p.m. The goods: I started with the scallop ceviche, almonds and pineapple. I think there was actually pesto in there as well. The entrée was fresh and delicious, with interesting flavours. The portion was also quite sizeable for an appetizer. Since I went with the table d'hôte option, I also had a Caesar salad, which was also quite good - it had the perfect amount of dressing and didn't 'drown' the salad. For the main, I had scallops with Corinth raisons and saffron (I think) with rice and a lovely salad. The dish was delicious. My mom had the salmon and loved it. We were too full for dessert but thoroughly enjoyed the delicious coffee. Service: Impeccable service from Celine, who was attentive and made sure our water glasses were never empty. We felt like she was only catering to us the entire time we were there. Thank you! Price point: On the high end, but the dinner experience was worth it. The only thing I'd like to mention is that their table d'hôte situation is overly complicated. It would be less complicated if there was one option that included an appetizer, main and dessert + coffee. If you're in the area, I highly recommend making a reservation here even you aren't staying at the hotel. You'll be in for one heck of a gastronomic experience.
