The Le Chic Shack has the most out of this world authentic poutine! The potatoes were crispy under a heavenly smooth sauce with beef, pickled onion and of course cheese curds galore! This was truly authentic, made from fresh potatoes, cheese curds and slow cooked shredded seasoned beef on top. The portion size they serve is generous. They have small and large bowl sizes with plenty of other poutine choice varieties. I also had a simple traditional burger which was delicious and a nice compliment with the poutine. The bun was super fluffy and the special sauce complimented the meat nicely. Service was very friendly and good came to the table quickly. read more

Le Chic Shack serves poutine, burgers, drinks, etc., a pretty comprehensive snacks/quick bite joint. It has a great view of the Chateau Frontenac and you can enjoy people watching from the bar seating. Service was super fast and the staff was great. They have tables and bar seating, lots of space for a several large groups. The food was hot and had a decent variety. Their drinks and great though, never seen a mango soda before... it was awesome! We had (as a snack from walking around): - Mango Soda: highly recommended, mango puree - Le Classique: poutine on cubed potatoes Great place to take a break in the area. Will have to try try signature fries, breakfast/brunch options, and other house sodas in future. read more

Le Chic Shack is such a gem in Quebec City. It is easily one of the most unique menu's I've ever seen. It puts a creative spin on Canadian comfort food, and every detail feels thoughtful, from the ingredients to the presentation. I ordered the Le Chiquito, a perfectly cooked beef patty layered with cheddar and their house Chic sauce. It was simple but elevated. The kind of burger you could happily eat again and again. The signature fries were an absolute standout: golden and crispy, with just the right hit of truffle oil, shaved Parmesan, and fresh herbs. It's the kind of side dish you keep reaching for even when you're full. To drink, I tried their raspberry soda, which was refreshing and not overly sweet, and we also split a chocolate milkshake, which was rich, creamy, and indulgent in the best way. Between the cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and inventive takes on Canadian classics, Le Chic Shack is a must-visit! read more

Oh my gosh, Le Chic Shack was phenomenal! The food was amazing, and the prices were incredibly affordable, especially considering the huge portions. We ordered one large poutine to share between four of us, and it was more than enough--we were stuffed! Their poutine is unlike any other I've tried. Instead of regular fries, they use diced potatoes, which really elevates the dish. The cheese was perfect--so squeaky and exactly what you'd want from a proper poutine. The gravy tasted homemade, rich, savory, and absolutely delicious. Even though we didn't speak French, the staff was incredibly sweet, welcoming us with smiles and being polite throughout. They had other tempting options on the menu, but the portions were so big we couldn't try more this time. This was hands down the best poutine I had in Quebec--and I tried at least six different kinds! I would 100% come back. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and go here. It's fantastic! read more

Its getting 5 stars for the La Grano salad. What a salad. Delicious. The dressing takes it over the top. The burgers are OK. Canadian burgers are very beefy tasting. The poutine is delicious as was the truffle fries. Also, try the homemade sodas. The mango was good. read more

We came for an early lunch in mid-August. We were seated at an outside table at the front of the restaurant. The staff were friendly and attentive. We ordered 3 chicken burgers, poutine, fries and lemonade. The fries and poutine came out first with the drinks. I didn't know that the portions were so large! The fries were nice and crispy. This is our first time trying poutine and it was tasteless. The chicken burger came out and it was average tasting - nothing special. read more

I had my first real meal in Quebec City here after a day of traveling and touring Parliament House, as well as Chateau Frontenac. The space was super cute and a nice break from the cold. I ordered the Salted Caramel Maple milkshake and Poutine. The milkshake was wonderfully thick, smooth, creamy, sweet and tasted delightfully of maple. The Poutine I selected was La Braisee, consisting of ale-braised beef, aged cheddar, cheese curds, pickled onions, horseradish aioli and fresh herbs. What I didn't realize was the dish came with actual pieces of potato, not French fries, so I wasn't the biggest fan. To me, that's not true poutine. However, the beef was tender, juicy, and well seasoned. It went well with the cheese and onion. My friend ordered the sweet potato fries, so I got to try some. These were nicely crispy and had true sweet potato taste. Service was decent. Since I was disappointed with my meal, I would not return. read more

I would highly recommend the Tomato Basil soup and the burgers. Very cold beer and good service.

Great location across from the Frontenac. Sit outside and take in the view and people. Milkshakes are amazing. Nice place to sit and have a drink. Food was just ok. I expected the burger to be juicy and amazing but it was neither. Chicken sandwich was subpar and I would have thought it would have more substance. Overall, I would come back for shakes and drink not the food. read more

Burgers, fries and milkshakes with a good collection of poutines make this a great stop for lunch located next to the Hotel Frontenac. Places to eat inside and out. Service was friendly. They have a great gluten free bun for those that are "sans gluten". read more

Came here primarily due to proximity to the Chateau. Advertised as a Burger place, so wife and I both ordered different versions of their burger. The consensus was that both burgers were not very good. They were not juicy at all and appeared to be overcooked. To add to the meal, I ordered the classic poutine. The fries were not traditional, which completely spoiled the entire effect for me. The gravy and cheese was only OK. We topped everything with chocolate shakes. Things went much better with these shakes. Both were excellent. Liked the atmosphere of the Chic Shack. Had a window table so we could people watch. Was chilly and raining, so sitting outside wasn't an option. read more

This place was on our list but not when we planned. A close restaurant was too full so we came here, after bookmarking it to come later due to the reviews. It was so good. It was comparable inside to a diner feel but the food was more upscale than that! Fresh, delicious, and clean. We sat near the windows and it was beautiful to watch groups go by while enjoying great food. Very affordable and staff superb! read more

Such a fun place in the heart of everything! As tourists we were looking for a friendly place we could charge our phones, use the bathroom and get a bite to eat. The staff were very accomodating. I loved the homemade pear soda with the pebbled ice! That alone was worth going here for and the poutine was the best that we had while we were in Qubec City. The chicken sandwich was very flavorful but on the sandwich that we received the amount of actual chicken served was very small portion. read more

Service was a bit slow but the food was good. Good choice if you're looking for something casual but decent.

Server didn't care about the table. Not only that food was overpriced for what you get. It was 6/10 for the food. Then for some reason they decided to turn on the fans. That's when dust started to pour on our food. Would NOT recommend coming here. Never going again. read more

Spacious and good for groups. I came in when it wasn't busy and was seated immediately. The service was okay and pretty attentive. I ordered the bison burger, le robuste. It was pretty good, but the portion is small for the price. I really liked the black garlic mayo. Overall a good meal and filling, but it costs $24 for just the burger. I also ordered the strawberry milkshake and that was really great. However it costed $8 which is quite a lot for a drink. I really liked it and it was very tasty but for the price, I think this portion size was also a bit small. Overall a nice experience but way out of my budget. read more

Every blog and youtube video recommended coming to Le Chic Shack. I think it's because of all the choices of a "fusion" style poutine. If I had the chance to dine here again, I would just stick to the classic poutine. The "fusion" sounds great, but it really takes away what a traditional poutine is supposed to be. Hubby and I shared Le Chic Burger and La Forestiere poutine which had mushroom, cheese and we added chicken. While it tasted good the first few bites, it got really heavy really quick. Our friends also got a burger and a Korean spicy poutine. It was also too heavy for them as well. Note that we stick to classic poutine the rest of the trip everywhere else (10 days total) and they were all good. The most let down was actually trying to split our bill in half, they couldn't do it but never came back and tell us. We ended up waiting for an extra 20 mins til we asked them again nicely. Could had saved everyone lots of time. read more

Really cool spot to grab some food. The kids had the chiquitos, my wife the Chic, and me the Robuste. We also had the maple and pepper chips and some fries and home made sodas (cola and blackcurrant blueberry.) I think the highlights were the chips and my wife loved the blackcurrant blueberry soda. The Robuste had some tasty elements for sure, but something about it didn't reach 5 stars for me. I'd probably give the experience 4.5 stars if I could. Definitely worth checking out if looking for a burger in the area! read more

We stopped in after walking through a cold mid October Quebec day. We Americans wanted to try poutine. We opted for the version with brisket. Fantastic! We bought one large bowl and it was enough for the two of us and we still left a couple bites. The gravy and cheese curds were great. We saw another table get the hamburgers. I will say the poutine looked to be a better value for the money. Try this place. read more

Convenient location but not as fast as you would think. If you are looking for a place to grab a quick bite before continuing your trip, I wouldn't recommend; if you want to rest while people watch, this may be the one for you. I didn't have anything so I can't say for their food. Great vibe inside with open kitchen so it's a fine place to hide from the sun. I had a cup of latte and it's ... just an average latte. My friend had a burger, some fries and a soda. She praise the soda more than the foods. read more

I had a great dinner here while traveling solo in Quebec City. I came quite early so they gave me the best seat - at the window facing the Chateau Frontenac! Great people watching - could see kids in snowsuits going tobogganing, intense winter running groups, and tourists snapping photos. A lot of restaurants in the Old Town are expensive, but this place is very affordable despite their location smack dab in the heart of the historic sites (it is literally across the street from the Tourist Information Centre). For $18 I got the Chiquito burger (a standard cheeseburger), a side of poutine (the "small" size is quite generous), and one of their homemade sodas (cassis-blueberry flavour). The burger uses fresh Canadian beef and was super juicy on a nice, soft brioche bun with a strong cheese that held up to the other flavours. The poutine hit the spot on a cold day -- squeaky cheese curds, heart gravy and squared potatoes (like hash browns shape as opposed to typical fries). They make all their own sodas using real fruit puree and you can taste the difference. They are sweet but not overly so and don't have the artificial taste that most fruity sodas have. Service was fast and they checked my vaccine passport and ID at the door. There is free wifi and you can get a 15% discount from Musee du Fort which is inside the same building (I did no go though, so I don't know if it's any good). They were quite friendly and unlike most places I have been to on this trip, this switched to English when they heard my accent. While I do like to practice my French, I think they are used to having tourists here and all staff speak English too so they switched to make me more comfortable. When I dined in other neighbourhoods like St. Jean Baptiste, they would allow me to fumble around in my bad French haha... read more

Food was memorable. Service was best in the city. I wish we had stopped for lunch instead of a snack.

For such a highly rated place, I expected more. Food- Ordered two homemade sodas that were decent. Pretty mellow flavor and not too sweet so if that's your thing, go for it. The poutine was also pretty similar in that I thought it lacked flavor, though the beef one had more variety ingredients and thus more flavor. Service- Solid waiters who were quick to take our order. Ambiance- Chill diner style in the heart of Quebec City. It seems rather catered to the tourist population. I would have given the restaurant lower, but given that I didn't order anything else, I thought it unfair. read more

We came here on a not busy Monday with our tour. The ambiance is chic and cute. However, here is our personal experience: The sign outside says to wait for someone to sit you, you literally have to stand and wait. They will not acknowledge you or make eye contact even if you try lol it's weird, but I guess that's what the locals are use to? We wouldn't have minded the wait but at least a "Hi, we will be back with you in a second" would have been nice? The place was not packed and there were plenty staff/personnel. Anyways, might be a cultural thing. You are dead to them while in that waiting area. Now, the pear soda was refreshing and the classic poutine was alright. I want to thank one of the girl staff that helped us when we finally got acknowledged. She was kind enough to make eye contact with us. read more

This whole time I have been seeing poutine on menus when we walk around. I finally decided that it was about time I tried it. Let me just start off with how much I LOVE cheese. I think this whole trip I have been saying how I need salt in the food and this one was one of those. It is soooo good, but if it had a bit of salt, it would've been 10000% my favorite thing. My partner got one of the burgers and it was one of the best burgers we have had since we have been here. It had the salt I had been craving and the flavor I wanted. Definitely an amazing late night snack. read more

The food was ok (Burgers). The fries and chips where uneventful. Not one of us enjoyed the homemade sodas. Would not recommend. Service was good, patient and kind young ladies.

We tried this place for a late lunch/snack one Saturday. This place seemed very popular and was walking distance from the Fairmont! Burgers, salads, and poutine - definitely something that is unhealthy but something to crave if you're wanting a cheat meal. We tried the masala poutine as well as the la braisee poutine. The masala poutine is seasonal and thought it was very unique and tasty! The la braisee poutine was just a standard poutine with beef, cheese, and potatoes (yes they use potatoes and not French fries). Food was pretty good but the service was pretty slow. I felt like they were understaffed and their hours are somewhat limited (they are only open in the afternoon on the weekends). read more

HEADS UP: SERVER MENTIONED THEY ONLY TAKE CARD! Nice and quaint spot with a full view of the Fairmont Chateau. Music was on point, playing a mix of early-2000s as well as modern pop music. My fault for not looking it up beforehand, but I expected the poutine to be one with fries - just keep in mind that they actually use diced potatoes as their base. I visited with my parents during early-April, so they were not busy. Server was very attentive and like other reviewers said, they aren't bothered at all with speaking English. read more
