The food was sublime and the friendliness of staff was true to form. The place is simply decorated and the kitchen actually resembles the kitchen of your next door neighbor. I marveled at how the Kraken Cru staff was able to balance a humble space with such amazing output. The man who was acting as bartender/server took the time the translate the entirety of their (small) menu for us so that we understood our options fully before starting to think about what we were going to eat. I will return to Kraken Cru every time I'm in Quebec.

Cozy bar style restaurant. The street is under construction and hard to find the place…read more I had a half dozen oyster (3 kinds) and oh really good ones. I ordered multiple dishes and all of them are delicate finish with great base taste. It is complex and I enjoyed a chef's creativity. The dessert was Pana cotta with dates. Hmm yammy ending the night!! The staffs are very friendly and great place to hang out. They have very unique alcohol list such as Polish Chopin vodka and Japanese Kinuura whiskey. I highly recommend this place!

FANTASTIC RESTAURANT FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS!…read more This is probably one of the most interesting dining experience (in a good way) during our Quebec trip. The service was amazing! Our server was very friendly, and he took the time to give us a thorough walkthrough of the menu and gave us a few recommendations. The chef is very creative and added quite a few twists when preparing the dishes, and all were presented beautifully. While there were some dishes that the taste isn't quite to my liking, I fully appreciate their "risk-taking attitude" in preparing the courses. We also enjoyed the cocktails very much - well balanced and again super nice presentation! Overall, I'd recommend this restaurant more for the special occasions, and you can expect to have a wonderful experience!

I requested that we don't have any organ meat. One of the dishes served had sweetbreads. Each course was carefully prepared, beautifully presented, and appeared to have high quality ingredients. However, none were remarkable. Execution was lacking, each dish was just ok. The overall experience was 5 stars but the food was barely a 4.

Hard to rate this place because the appetizers were amazing but our entrees were not so great…read more Initial service was super quick but it took about an hour between appetizers and entree so it was a bit frustrating. We had a reservation for 6, and we got seated in a MASSIVE booth/table that could easily fit 10ppl. A little awkward but not a deal breaker. We ordered a few drinks and a bottle of wine to share among us which came out quickly with the apps. While waiting for the entrees, our wine got warm as there wasn't an ice bucket that was given to us but wouldn't matter much because we finished our drinks by the time the food came out. The entrees were not as good- combination of personal preference and the way it was cooked. For the pasta, I thought it would be noodle shaped but it was shells- kinda a disappointment. A friend ordered the pork and shrimp plate and was told it was very dry/overcooked overall. The veggies side was what we talked about after the meal with how good it was. Not sure if I'll be coming back but they do have a rotating menu so hopefully there are better dishes coming up.

Could there be a MORE FAB spot in QC!? I don't think so, jjacques IS the SPOT to go if you want a…read morebeautiful meal, incredible service, delicious food and bevies! I've been lucky enough to come twice now while on vacation to jjacques and both times were exceptional, I also funnily enough sat at the exact same table both times. The service and staff and excellent - they give great recommendations, are funny and just make you feel taken care of. Shout-out to Nathan our waiter who spoke in EN for half the table and FR for the other half haha. He was so fun! The first time I came here was with my husband and we had a lovely dinner - the salmon blinis were our fave so I knew when I was here the second time, they were a must! The second time, there were six of us so we ordered quite a bit - we had the salmon blinis with caviar, a few oysters, the cod fritters, the prawn cocktail, the mushroom tortellini, flounder crudo, and whole fried fish - for dessert we did a cheese plate with some delicious local cheese. Everything was delicious - the whole fish is a must - the skin is so crispy and tasty - has a lot of Vietnamese flavours. The cocktails are also fabulous here - I had the Mexican Firing Squad and the Jungle Bird - both delicious and easy to drink! The room itself reminds me of a cool speakeasy bar/resto you'd find in the streets of New York City. It's hidden in an alleyway behind a very unassuming door. It's all part of the magic of the restaurant. If there is one place to go for dinner in QC, go here. We booked a reso in advance and I recommend you do this to secure your spot!

I love the ambiance inside from a small door to inside or a little speakeasy. It's a bit dark…read moreinside but I still enjoyed the overall vibe. The staff were all very great in explaining everything about the menu. For example, if you want the beef Tomahawk ($145), they told you to order it now since it'll be a 45 minute wait. We started off with 24 oysters ($72) as we love oysters. They had different type of oysters and we enjoyed the east coast oysters. My favorite dishes that we ordered were the seared scallops ($42) and the Butterfish Tataki ($22). We were a bit disappointed in the Crab Rotolo ($36) as we didn't enjoy the combination of the sauce and crab. The scallops were cooked very well and we loved the sauce for the Tataki. The Vitello Tonnato ($22) and Cod Fritters ($15) were decent but not as good in comparison to our favorites. We throughly enjoyed our dinner here as we had a good time trying all the food and mocktails they offered.
