    Margarita pizza
    Rashmeen K.

    Outside seating was faster than inside and since it was a nice day out, we decided to do outside. Waiter seated us and took our order, but then it took forever to get our food. We waited for more than 45 minutes. When the food did come out it was lukewarm to cold. It seemed like it was sitting for a while before it was brought over to us. I had high expectations food wise, regardless of the slow service. The pizza was okay, I have had way better. The spag pollo lacked so much flavor! I thought it would be so flavorful because of the herbs but nope! The arrabiata pasta lacked flavor as well. Overall, I had high expectations considering the reviews I read were positive. But huge disappointment and waste of time/ money/ and still leaving hungry! We did tip but the waitress didn't deserve a tip. She wasn't even the one who brought the food over!

    Creme brûlée'

    Amazing gnocchi special and pizza special! The creme brûlée was perfection! The wait staff was great- low staff the night we went and the maître d' was a bit frazzled, but when we came back at the suggested time she was very pleasant and the staff was attentive for an oddly busy Monday night. Would absolutely return to this cute and cozy Italian restaurant!

    Wine from Italy

    Great service with a great wine recommendation from our waitress. Got seated in the terrace patio which was awesome. The food was just ok as probably don't have a lot of veg options in this area.

    Delicious calamari.

    The service was good. The restaurant was a nice modern Italian feel. We ordered dishes that are too similar. We definitely have much better Italian food in San Francisco.

    Seafood Pasta - yum!
    Matthew S.

    So as to not wreck my stomach, I stuck with Italian food for dinner as it was consistent with everything else I had eaten that day. It ended being a smart move. The seafood pasta I ordered is delicious. Yes, delicious. Ribbon-y pasta, fresh seafood in every forkful of food, great color of the dish, it combines the elements of Italy and a bit of Canada flair in one. Adding salmon to this dish not only added good contrast, but superb flavor. The rest of the seafood just adds more character to an already insane pasta dish. I only wish they gave me free bread instead of charging me for it. That stinks. The restaurant does get busy around 4 pm and stays busy for the rest of the night, so get here early or only come for lunch. Either way, this is one plate of food you have to eat.

    The service is longer than expected. We ordered an appetizer but never came but they didn't charge it neither. The food was subpar. Felt like a tourist traps. The pasta was nothing special. My duck confit was lack of favor and my wife's seafood pasta was ok. Wish we have gone somewhere else.

    We didn't eat the carbonara

    Service was good and waitresses are nice but food was mixed. Ambiance was good with family friendly noise level. Bbq flatbread was good but the carbonara needs help. Flavorless and clumpy. Spaghetti meatball okay but we had a hair in it. The Carnivore pizza was not bad but we struggled to slice the pizza. Would have been nice if the pizza was pre-sliced.

    Large portions with fast service. Cosy ambience during the night! The mozzarella sticks were full of cheese!!

    Sapristi was so good and I loved my experience here. We ordered the two salmons pasta and buffalo pizza. My favorite was the buffalo pizza. I'm not a huge pizza person but this pizza was so good. The pizza had so much flavor but it wasn't super overpowering which I liked. The two salmons pasta was also very delicious. I've never had salmon in my pizza so it was interesting but still very good. The restaurant is so cute inside and the servers were very helpful!

    We live in Montreal and we were going to go to Vermont to eat Olive Gardens, but instead we went to Quebec City, I chose this place as a normal Italian food, but i loved it, I said "Wow! It's been a long time since I've eaten something that good!" The Ambiance was super nice with a lot of rustic decorations, and we were attended by a woman very charismatic, this place is amazing , 5 stars.

    We came here for a refreshing cocktail stop in the evening because it was a warm day. The cocktails were nice and tasty. They had plenty of options to choose fro.. Plenty of outdoor seating as well, which was nice if you want to get the whole experience of outdoor dining in Quebec.

    Seafood marinara, vegetarian pasta
    Gregory D.

    The servers were extremely accommodating, the food was a ten! All in all one of the top ten Italian restaurants I've been too!

    Carbonara, after demolishing
    Celeste C.

    The location on the corner, sitting outside, a great drink that helped me mellow, plus pasta that I can't stop thinking about and helpful staff = best lunch of my trip to Quebec City. The pasta has perfectly cooked, very creamy and the parm shaving on top just added to the dish! I wish we lived there so I could have it again.

    Red wine. Lovely.

That means, no basic ingredients like citrus are used. That's basically telling the bartender they cannot make 99% of cocktails in mind and have to take risks to make something tasty happen. That concept in itself is a recipe to create things that will be genuinely and authentically Canadian. In other words, experimentation at its finest. Opened in 2024 by the team behind Quebec City's only 2 Michelin starred restaurant, Taniere, this is now the spot to be for those in the know. So, how is trial and error going of crafting something genuinely Canadian? Cocktails are superb on both taste and presentation. The food is remarkably plated with extremely high quality ingredients. Everything tastes excellent. If that's not enough, the entire interior looks like a very private club and the team of servers and bartenders is superb and welcoming.

I also hadn't had a charcuterie board this trip yet, so splurged on one here. It came with three types of cheese, three types of meats, two types of pickled onions, traditional cucumber pickles, pumpkin seeds, cranberries, an onion puree, a mustard puree, and bread. First off, I appreciated they actually provided the appropriate bread-to-other ratio. I feel like normally you run out of bread while eating a board but I actually had bread leftover with this meal! The cheese and meat were good of course, but I want to make a special call out to the onion puree, which was like condensed French onion soup, and the cucumber pickles, which were some of the best pickles I've had because they tasted so fresh, like they had just been brined. All of this on a deck looking out towards the river. Stop by here after late afternoon cruise with Croisieres ML across the road to continue enjoying the river view! Logistics: - indoor and outdoor seating - limited street parking nearby - several complex mocktail options available. I wanted to try one so bad but I was too full for more!

One lady in lower town took special delight in telling me "sorry, we're all full tonight", while I stood there with numb fingers and a raw red face where hail hit my face moments before. I passed Alphonse many times the last few days but tonight, instead of just passing through, i stopped in to look inside as another customer held open the door waiting for me to enter as he exited. So naturally, I went in. I was afraid they were about to close, but the hostess was welcoming and with a warm smile, showed us to our seats. The food was so good! We ordered the French Onion soup. My kids loved that the bread in the soup was still crunchy and not soggy. The baked Brie was a delicious start of what is to come next. My entree was the low temperature salmon. It was the chef's special (they call it inspiration of the chef). It was a salmon dish that is lukewarm. The salmon was so tender, it melted like butter in my mouth. It was a decent portion too.

Nothing will come close to comparing! We heard good things about the hot chocolate here and wanted to check it out for ourselves after being out in the cold all day. We chose the spiced hot chocolate, as recommended by our server. It was absolutely delicious-- rich, flavorful, creamy, and everything that a hot chocolate should be. Although the price was a bit steep, we had enough for 4 small cups and it came with two scones and whipped cream on the side. We also got two "biscuits", which we thought were going to literal biscuits, but ended up being small pastries which were both tasty! We were lucky enough to snag the seats right next to the fireplace which ended up being the perfect way to spend an hour hanging out. We ended up coming back for a light dinner the same day and also really enjoyed our time. There was a live pianist performing which really elevated the dining experience. We started things off with some oysters, which honestly were some of the best I've had in a very long time. The dipping sauce was a bit strange and untraditional for me, but it was perfect with just a bit of lemon juice. We also got a burger to share, and when they accidentally brought out a side salad instead of the fries we requested, they let us keep the salad and brought a huge entire order of truffle fries for us (!!!) Canadians really have some of the best fries too because these were perfectly crispy and honestly didn't even need dipping sauce. The burger also didn't disappoint and was savory goodness. I wish we tried this place sooner! Would highly recommend, even if you're not staying at the hotel itself.
