Marina Carpine

(Translated) INCREDIBLE service! we didn't have a reservation and they found us a table anyway, everything was sublime from start to finish. Heart stroke (Original) Service INCROYABLE! nous n’avions pas de réservation et il nous ont trouvé une table quand même , tout était sublime du début à la fin. Coup de cœur

Maxim Didenko

Food was delicious & service was excellent! I had the quiche with fries & salad.

Jason Uberig

Worth the wait! Best salmon dish I've ever had - thanks to the host for recommending it vs the steak. My daughter had the warmed chicken salad and loved it - said the chicken was so tender it just broke off with her fork. My other …

Claudia Rohde

This is a nice spot to stop for a bottle of wine and a charcuterie board but that's about all. We were sorely disappointed in our main courses. The steak filet was thin, tasteless and very overcooked. The french fries were not fresh, they were frozen. My husband's duck and sausage were both very unremarkable. The customers next to us appeared to enjoy their French onion soup though so it appears this would be a good spot to stop for lunch.

Peter Runions

Just perfect! ????

Jim Mangione

Excellent food and staff. Found this place while we were in port on our cruise.

Awesome

We came on labour day weekend, two couples with two kids under the age of two in strollers! Wow is all I have to say for this restaurant! They rejigged the tables for us to sit comfortably with our kids in their strollers (while they slept…yess..!!) beside us. The team didn’t make any fuss, no frustration at all, they were happy to help us and we felt welcomed! They provide immaculate service (thanks to Elisa and Reine-Lise), were gracious, informative and the food, was DELICILOUS! We felt like we were their family! It was the highlight of our trip to Quebec City, we would recommend this place for the food, the care and especially the atmosphere of ease and grace they provided to our families for a wonderful meal!

Arash Meshkinian

Bon appetit!!! French Onion Soup is so tasty!!!

Dan Bergbigler

Great food, friendly staff, cosy atmosphere. Excellent location near Petit Champlain. Best poutine in Quebec if you like peppercorn sauce!

Richard Oxlade

A cute little restaurant in the heart of old Quebec with lots of character. To be honest, I’d say this place was kind of overrated. The food was good, but lacked the overall quality of being top notch. We started with the Aranchini ball (just one ball) for $14 which was very underwhelming, barely worth half the amount we paid in my opinion. And for the mains, I went casual with the Elk and Brie burger and my girlfriend got the Mushroom Ravioli. Both were good dishes but were still underwhelming given the expectations ahead of time. Sadly, I can’t give this place more than a 3 star for the sole reason being, it’s fine dining prices, for somewhat casual food quality.

Vineet Ranawade

Excellent food, excellent service, very friendly owners, and the prices are as affordable as it can get for a fancy restaurant in old Quebec. Just book days in advance because this papa and mama restaurant get booked so quickly..next to impossible to squeeze yourself in a table with no prior reservation

Antoine Lord

Ok

(Translated) A crush ♥ ️ what a great discovery. Exceptional service, exquisite and tasty food, when I come back to Quebec I will definitely go back! (Original) Un coup de cœur♥️ quelle belle découverte. Service exceptionnel, nourriture exquise et savoureuse, quand je vais revenir à Québec j’y retourne assurément !

Shaina D'Souza

The place is very cozy, and the attention was great. The food came relatively fast. We ordered onion soup and Ravioli with Mushroom. The soup was ok, a bit too salty for my taste and not enough cheese. The Ravioli with mushroom was very tasty.

Nikita Damiens

(Translated) Charming little bistro with a warm welcome. Unfortunately, the food is very disappointing ... Poor quality steak much overcooked, frozen fries, same salad as a starter and side dish ... All at a price far too high ... It's hard to understand the reviews so rave ... (Original) Charmant petit bistro avec un accueil des plus chaleureux. Malheureusement, la nourriture est très decevante… Steak de piètre qualité beaucoup trop cuit, frites congelées, même salade en entrée qu’en accompagnement… Le tout à un prix beaucoup trop élevé… Bien du mal à comprendre les critiques aussi dithyrambiques…

Gary Droghini

Best food. Best atmosphere. Best staff in all of Quebec City and staff is totally bilingual.

Jake Bryant

Came here with my wife, very cozy delicious restaurant and romantic setting.

Josee PATENAUDE

Angela O'Malley

Great food and the service from Raphael was superb. Had the duck confit and gf had the veal medallion - both excellent.

yu chiao Liao

Located at the center of quartier petit champlain, it is a perfect place to have dinner during winter holidays. Not only the food and desert are delicious, the decoration is quaint and the staff are friendly and nice. Highly recommended.

Alyshia Saltman

A tad touristy, but good food prepared well. Cozy restaurant and attentive service round out the experience at this restaurant.

Anuj Sood

The food was great.

Mahmood Poursaee

Very good restaurant, we had the duck & mushroom raviolli, both were amazing

Lana Cox

Not to bad, but the escargot is very salty.????????????

Parent LH

My hisband and two boys ate here. It was a very pleasant experience. The staff was accomodating and helpful. My oldest son wanted to try the sweetbreads for the first time,and he was extremely happy with his choice. My other son had the duck and liked it as well. I had the mushroom ravioli and really enjoyed it too.... cream sauce was delicious. We all shared a piece of maple cake as we were full. We devoured it. It did not disappoint. Wish I would have had room for my own piece.

Ovidio Prudencio

Outstanding menu selection, extraordinary cooks and the most wonderful service! Prices are reasonable too!

DIANE O'Connell

very cozy decoration, little expensive, at least $25 per person for small plate

Nicole Phillips

Cozy French bistro in Quartier Petit Champlain with very friendly service. The food is French bistro inspired which is quite satisfying. This is a good choice for the walk around the historic lower town,FABULOUS! Best Fish and Chips ever. Cod was huge, moist and delicious! Steak Afro Ted was outstanding. Both came w scrumptious salad and fries. Anne Kim was the best server. Maple cake dessert is amazing!

Mariia Ryzhenko

My son said: “ don’t you think the people here are so nice.” I think the gentleman name is Nike. He is the best. Thank you for the great night!:)

Usman Chaudhry

A very friendly atmosphere and good food for reasonable prices regarding the location in Québec's most visited area.

Pierre-Luc Poliquin

(Translated) Absolutely awesome. We were fortunate to be served by the sweet and kind Florence. We really lived what is called "the customer experience" yesterday, from the reception to the exit. First, the host outside was warm, light-hearted and funny. We quickly felt comfortable. Then, Florence took over and took care of us during the two hours of our supper; she asked questions about our tastes to create good pairings, she was honest in her answers about the quality of food and alcohol, she had us taste wines to make sure we liked everything and she allowed us to adapt the menu and alcohol according to our diets and food allergies! The food was excellent. The deer medallion was a bit overcooked, but the whole thing was very good nonetheless. In addition, someone who appears to be a manager of the place came to see us twice to make sure everything was fine for us and also to advise us that the cook was taking the subject of allergies very seriously. In this sense, a little extra time was allocated for cooking our food to ensure that other allergens did not come into contact with our dishes and that all surfaces were suitable for safe cooking. I would like to thank the whole team and the cook for this special attention. I recommend this place 100% for all the reasons mentioned above, but I emphasize even more the fact that they seem to have adapted despite the difficult conditions in restoration of the last months and this, without making one feel that the quality of the service and meals were affected. Well done and thank you for everything. (Original) Absolument génial. Nous avons eu la chance d'être servi par la douce et gentille Florence. Nous avons vraiment vécu ce qu'on appelle "l'expérience client" hier, de l'accueil à la sortie. Premièrement, l'hôte à l'extérieur était chaleureux, léger et drôle. Nous nous sommes sentis à l'aise rapidement. Puis, Florence a prit le relais et nous a traité aux petits soins pendant les deux heures de notre souper; elle posait des questions sur nos goûts pour créer de bons accords, elle était honnête dans ses réponses sur la qualité des mets et alcools, elle nous a fait goûter des vins pour s'assurer que le tout nous plaisait et elle nous a permis d'adapter le menu et l'alcool en fonction de nos diètes et allergies alimentaires! La nourriture était excellente. Le médaillon de cerf était un peu trop cuit, mais l'ensemble était très bon quand même. De plus, quelqu'un qui semble être un responsable de la place est venu nous voir à deux reprises pour s'assurer que tout allait bien pour nous et aussi pour nous aviser que le cuisinier prenait le sujet des allergies très au sérieux. En ce sens, un petit délai supplémentaire était alloué pour la cuisson des nos aliments afin de s'assurer que les autres allergènes n'entraient pas en contact avec nos plats et que toutes les surfaces étaient propices à une cuisson sécuritaire. J'en remercie énormément encore toute l'équipe et le cuisinier pour cette attention particulière. Je recommande à 100% cet endroit pour toutes les raisons citées ci-haut, mais je souligne encore plus le fait qu'ils semblent s'être adaptés malgré les conditions difficiles en restauration des derniers mois et ce, sans faire sentir que la qualité du service et des repas étaient affectés. Bravo et merci pour tout.

Sean Baradaran

Great little place. Wonderful service, really tasty food.

Laura Wheeler

The duck leg was outstanding. Easily the best bistro / cafe we tried in the area.

Manpreet Dhindsa

The French onion soup was delicious, and the burger was super filling. And to top it off, the pouding chômeur was the best dessert I've had. Nathalie was great, friendly, and had the best recommendations. I would highly recommend eating here when in Quebec City.

Gary L

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, and amazing service. Had the escargots, cuisse du canard and crême brulée - highly recommend all three!

Alex Prevost

Staff were quick and courteous, tasty wines and small plates, good for a mid-afternoon bite.

The best fish and chips ever! Excellent and friendly service. The four of us happened to come upon this little restaurant at lunchtime. Everything was delicious. Desserts were outstanding. We will be back.

Nathan Miller

Took my gf on a date here for her birthday. Pricey, but excellent cuisine. ????

Maria Sorokina

Not sure why the rating for this restaurant is so high. Apart from the warm chicken salad the rest of the food is pretty bad. We ordered the french onion soup and it taste like salt water. The deer meat was dry and tasteless so was the fish and chips. The duck confit was also very dry and salty. Having said that the service is good.

Alan Beveridge

Very good rilletes

Ian Fraser

Fantastic meal and experience. The waiter was exceptional. Friendly and very helpful. Best dessert we have had yet. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Fabulous food and service. We ate here yesterday for lunch and it was so nice that we came back again today. We had steak, fish and chips, salad, poutine, hamburger. All were very good. Very quiet and restful after a long day of walking. Will be back again!

Excellent little restaurant in a touristy part of QC. I can couch for mushroom ravioli and grilled salmon. Service is bilingual, friendly, and very efficient. Only drawback: Slightly expensive.

Great food and amazing service. Probably the best service in all of Quebec..! I had the mushroom ravioli and the duck rilletes which were really good. Our waiter was attentive and made the meal an enjoyable experience!

Nadia Pettigrew

(Translated) Excellent service from Nicolas. Funny, attentive and attentive, he knows how to set the mood to make the evening enjoyable. We ate on the patio in October, the fleece blankets on each chair were a nice touch with the cooler temperature. The food was excellent. (Original) Excellent service de la part de Nicolas. Drôle, attentif et à l’écoute, il sait mettre de l’ambiance pour rendre la soirée agréable. Nous avons mangé sur la terrasse en octobre, les couvertures de polar sur chaque chaise était une belle attention avec la température plus froide. La nourriture était excellente.

Xavier Chretien

Nice restaurant in a popular street right at bottom of the funicular. Good service and food.

Eric Poirier

I had the Chicken breast, onion confit with blueberries, goat cheese, shallot sauce and it was amazing. The chicken was cooked perfectly! I will definitely return.

Maxim Beiline

We sat outside in early May. What a pleasure. Spring!

Constanza García Ramos

(Translated) Warm welcome! Our waitress Florence was amazing: kind, caring and patient. The best fish & chip I've eaten in a restaurant: fresh fish and crispy and tasty breadcrumbs! Very good poutine too! It's worth the detour! Menu a little limited on the other hand: few options. (Original) Accueil chaleureux! Notre serveuse Florence était extraordinaire : gentille , attentionnée et patiente. Le meilleur fish & chip que j'ai mangé dans un resto : poisson frais et panure croustillante et goûteuse! Poutine très bonne aussi! Ça vaut le détour! Menu un peu limité par contre : peu d'options.

Patrick Paquet

Lovely food, lovely setting and a gorgeous way to end a day of exploring. September 2016

Mariana Marquez

Very good !!!

Tomas Alonso

(Translated) The meal was simply delicious. I was with my wife and as much the tuna tataki as the bison egg rolls, the lobster ravioli and the sweetbreads were to roll on the floor. I strongly suggest this table for a romantic meal on the terrace or with friends. We received very good service, very kind and smiling young lady. (Original) Le repas était tout simplement succulent. J'étais avec ma conjointe et autant le tataki de thon que le egg rolls aux bisons, les raviolis au homard que les ris de veau étaient à se rouler par terre. Je vous suggère fortement cette table pour un repas en amoureux sur la terrasse ou avec des amies. Nous avons reçu un très bon service, demoiselle très aimable et souriante.

Jim Hees

Lunch was great.

Claudia Boyer

My husband and I went to this restaurant to have an onion soup. What we came out with was not only a delicious lunch but an amazing experience! The service was excellent! I would not only recommend this place for the best onion soup in Quebec City but also a personable and great service! The waiter was knowledgeable, friendly and polite. Love love love!!!! DefibuDefiwill come back here again on our next trip!????

Nickolas is an awesome server and individual. Loved his recommendations and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Denys Ivanov

Quiche and salad were both very good. Prices are very reasonable. Great service as well. The restaurant is fairly small so reservations may be necessary during rush hours.

Raymond Trudeau

Probably one of the best French onion soups you will ever have! Amazing!

Jessica Pang

Great service, amazing food and overall a nice and cozy vibe!! Highly recommend!!!

Mike LL

Exceptional service and awesome food. Not a touristic trap, but a great genuine local restaurant. Thanks for the warm welcome!

Claude Marmen

(Translated) We discovered this little bistro that offered "take out" when we were hit hard by health restrictions during our stay in Old Quebec. We were pleasantly surprised! It was divine! The dishes, from appetizer to dessert, were prepared with great care, and bursting with flavors and freshness. A pure delight! We will make it our "Festin de Babette" during our next fast. (Original) Nous avons découvert ce petit bistro qui offrait le "take out", lorsque nous étions frappés de plein fouet par les restrictions sanitaires lors de notre séjour dans le Vieux Quebec. Nous avons été agréablement surpris! Ce fut divin! Les plats, de l'entrée au dessert, furent préparés avec beaucoup d'attention, et regorgés de saveurs et de fraîcheurs. Un pure délice! Nous en ferons notre "Festin de Babette" lors de notre prochaine vite.

Harald Brandner

Very nice people and the food was excellent

Steven Blons

Amazing meal...I inhaled my body weight in fries and I dont even like fries!! Sit outside facing the funicular...what a view. Would eat here every day if I could!!

Toronto Watches

The food was sensational. Best traditional poutine I encountered on my stay this trip. I reccomend you try the maple baked brie with pecans. I had the deer in blueberry sauce, outstanding.

Nasir Sarfraz

The is a cozy little place in a quaint street. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Food, well, my wife's Wild Mushroom Ravioli was exceptional, maybe the best we have had so far, even on our travels in Italy. But my black pepper steak. Well to begin with, there were more fries than steak itself, there was no option for baked or mashed potato and the worst thing, the steak was cold, well luke warm to be precise. That's not the way I want my steak. When I mentioned this to the waitress, she offered to have it cooked against, but then my medium steak would have turned into well-done, which I didn't want either. I wasn't offered a replacement, which was hugely disappointing. In a nutshell I didn't enjoy my meal but my wife did. That's why 3 stars.

Aleksandar Krumov

Nice setting, great food, excellent service

Devika Mohan

Excellent food! Reservations recommended which are easily done online. French onion soup for appetizer was good as the birth could have been a little more flavoured. Burgers all around were and the poutine upgrade was good.

Any time we travel through Quebec City, Bistro Sous le Fort is one of our must-stops. We love the food, the atmosphere, the friendly and bilingual staff, and, if the breeze is not too cold, the outdoor patio.

Jessica Dávila

Great food, excellent service and very cosy. Make sure you book

Michael Norman

The kitchen is very well managed and gets the dishes out quickly. Front of house staff are very friendly and efficient.

Thomas Wineke

How many ways can we say YES? This is the only restaurant in Quebec City we went back to a second time. First for lunch then dinner. We savored every bite of everything we were served. We loved the setting and had excellent and friendly service. Worth a trip to the lower town just for a meal.

Andrew MacMillan

Service and ambiance was nice; but the food was so orfinaory. Duck was not worth the money.

Willem Van Lancker

I never went there

Got the mushroom ravioli and this was the best pasta dish I’ve ever had. Service was so friendly and accommodating. Id recommend this place to everyone visiting quebec city. Great food, great atmosphere, great service.

Annie Sat

Great service. Love the coffee. The daily turnip was hot and fresh. Bread slices were good. I had the mushroom ravioli and the sauce was delicious. Apple pie is a NO. Too sweet and require a knife to cut the pie base.

Awesome food. fast service. lovely location and a very warm and inviting restaurant. we really enjoyed a great meal. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff was fantastic! we did call ahead for reservations *(recommend) and did not have to wait when we arrived. This is an upscale dining experience and is not a quick in and out burger joint, so the meals cost a bit more but the quality is definitely there.. I recommend this location. Did I mention that the restaurant is located in the heart of the old city? so take a stroll after a great meal and enjoy all the city has to offer!

Very cute and such a welcoming place. Order an onion soup, burger and a glass of your favourite wine, or perhaps some fish and chips. Staff is very warm and friendly. Good is great. Smaller tables make this place even cozier.

Isabelle Juneau

(Translated) Excellent option in the middle of the old area where there are a thousand sites. Extensive menu of local dishes. The duck confit, takes 16 years just say, this great. From starters you have many too. They have 9CAD menu for kids too. And also some waitress can even speak Spanish. Price is not thrown but it is worth it. A success. I would repeat. (Original) Excelente opción en mitad de la zona antigua donde hay mil sitios. Carta extensa de platos locales. El pato confitado, lleva 16 años igual dicen, esta buenísimo. De entrantes tienes muchos también. Tienen menú de 9CAD para niños también. Y además alguna camarera puede hablar español incluso. Precio no esta tirado pero merece todo la pena. Un acierto. Repetiría.

J.D.

I enjoyed my experience in this cosy restaurant. You can taste a delicious dish full of flavours and really authentic. I took Salmon dish, which was served with roasted vegetables and rice with a delicious sauce. The signature dessert of the restaurant is Chômeur which is a wet cade soaked in maple syrop served hot and with creme. It was perfect. I highly recommend this place.

Amol

Do not order the “poutine”, they don’t use cheese curds which is a bit shameful given we’re in Quebec. The rest of the food was overpriced and just ok. I had the elk burger which was dry. The only silver lining was the brie appetizer which was tasty.

James Osborne

Love this chic little place. Staff were super friendly, wines and food selection interesting and tasted great. Recommend!!

Omar Fuentes

It's pricey. Not worth it.

Steve Dupont

The waiter was super friendly and provided a pleasant service for us. Also the restaurant offered a great atmosphere. However their food was not that good. Maybe my expectation was too high, because I was in Quebec City for the first time and I thought all the food would be really delicious. Elk burger and fish & chips: Not bad. Onion soup : Disappointed. Garlic bread/ baguette : Good

Nariman Mani

Excellent meals and sevice provide by Elisa. We bought had the special that was reasonably priced. Save room for dessert. Had maple cake with cream. A little sweet but well worth using my daily calorie allocation.

Warner Boss

Well... Onion Soup was sooooooo salty, not eatable, WHY? WHY? Stakes were OK, but way toooooo small, but you get lots of fries and lattice, seriously.... We spend almost 250$ in an evening, eating 4 people, and we are not coming back, do not recommend, do not get, how such a place has such a high rating and reviews... SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME!!!

Mathias Ranft

A lovely dinner in a quaint, tiny, beautiful restaurant in Petite Champlain in Old Quebec. Our server was outstanding! The food was efficiently served and delicious. The wine menu offered a nice selection. I would 100 % recommend this Bistro.

Robert Zovinec

Everything we tried here was delicious, and the service was excellent. They really take a lot of care and pride in the food they create here, and you can tell from the moment you step in the door. Tiny little place, so reservations are a must.

Nicolas Bacon

Had a hamburger and salad. It was Tasty and juicy. A good place to have lunch or dinner. Has a kids menu. Good service.

John Chow

My wife and I had lunch here on a Thursday in June 2017. We enjoyed it because of the setting. We sat on a front porch while we ate, and we watched all the tourists and shoppers walk by as we sat there. Nice spot. However the food is just average. The signature french onion soup tasted bland. Teriyaki shrimp appetizer was tasty. Most lunch entrees exceed $20. It's a tourist trap. Not bad. Great place to sit and relax outdoors.

roza z

Pretty good

Marco Luna

The onion soup and the creme brûlée were average but the service was lovely and the main courses were extremely delicious, especially the salmon and the side dish salad with amazing cranberries- best we have ever tasted. The place is very small, but we managed to find an empty table during lunch time, waiting only five minutes, without a reservation. But the next day the waitress told us the restaurant was full and there would be a table for us in only 45 minutes. We were really disappointed but we knew that this restaurant was extremely popular.

Very good restaurant to have dinner when in Petite Champlain. Great service and food. Note: Reservations recommended or you will have to wait as they are busy all the time.

Miguel Bautista

Very disappointing! We had heard good things but that was not our experience. We had reserved a table but when we arrived on schedule we were initially ignored by staff. Eventually we were seated at a table for two indoors, but soon realized there was large group in the small indoor space talking and laughing loudly. It was obvious all the diners at the other tables were annoyed by this but the group obviously couldn't have cared less about the other diners. We sat at our table for 15 minutes and were completely ignored; we were not even offered a glass of water! Since there was no sign of us ever being served, we decided our only choice was to up and leave, something we've never done in our 40+ years of dining out. As we were standing to leave, the couple next to us said they had been coming to this restaurant for 14 years and never seen anything like the chaos we experienced. I guess it was just our bad luck, then.

Sous le Fort is a tiny little bistro on Rue Sous le Fort, just down the road from the Funiculaire. We were walking by and stopped to look at the menu when the door opened and a sweet lady told us to come right in. No choice now, we thought! This tiny bistro had excellent food, and we ate there twice during our week in Quebec. The ELK BURGER was the best - we had it twice - and their French onion soup was incredible. The restaurant's fireplace was going when we got there, and we sat at the window, where we could see people passing along the iconic Quebec street. One of the owners served us the second time we ate at the restaurant (Katherine) and she was wonderful. Excellent! Get the elk burger! (Unfortunately, I don't have a photo... but their poutine was also delicious.)

Esther Curtis

Great personal service and delicious food. Most importantly - dog friendly - on a really busy autumn night. Highly recommended.

David Lougheed

This is an awesome French Bistro in a charming location! I was intrigued by the sweetbreads on the menu and I decided to order them. I was not disappointed! While it may be hard due to the large portions and how good the food is, make sure to leave room for a piece of maple cake for dessert. It was the perfect ending to a great meal! I hope I can make the trip back to Quebec so I can eat here once again!

Chris Cudmore

Excellent! Deer steak was just perfect. Great selection of wines. Enjoy

Laura Melissa Guerra Reyes

Excellent service. Very tasty food. Great beautiful place. Just Perfect! If you come here ask for Red Deer Plate

Bree Sykes

Very tasty food and friendly staff in a prime location.

Tim Wolfram

Intimate environment. Food was enjoyable but not the most unique flavor profiles. My wife had steak and I had venison. She raved about her maple cake dessert. The sparkling cider I had was very refreshing as well.

Sheri Jungers

A comfortable amount of food, but a little pricey. To be expected in this neighborhood.

Norbert Aschenbrenner

Lovely cozy place in the heart of old Quebec with great food. You can't go wrong here. Loved their poutine.

Gabi Dinculescu

Tiny place - we got the last table. Great service & tasty food.

Wei Yue

Cute little place. I had the french onion soup and it was really good. Would recommend.

Samantha Coronel

The food is verrrrryyyy average. Ordered French onion soup which wasn't good - too salty, pretty bland, just not good. Atlantic salmon was better - nice creamy lemon sauce, but the fish was dry. Not sure where all the rave reviews are coming from. Maybe today was not the day and the chef was out of town. ????????‍♀️

Ashleigh Mayhew

An absolutely gorgeous lunch! The steak et frites were as good as, if not better than, anything in Europe. Fantastic service by Nicolas. Highly, highly recommended.

Brandon Bass

It’s a nice and calm place to eat???????? Wonderful staff, good food, great wine and cozy place

G C

Had dinner here last night We had the steak n fries and lobster ravioli My husband thinks his meal was too small (steak) even tho it said 6oz steak We also had a glass of red wine each and creme brûlée. The bill was over $120 cad But the staff was amazing super friendly and funny they made us felt so welcomed. ???????? Robert and Natalie We will definitely recommend.

Gustavo Cardoso

Great food. That’s it!

Decent place for French cuisine, staff can do better to make their customers more comfortable. We had ordered French Onion soup and Creme Brulee, both were good.

Pat Ling

Friendly atmosphere, great service, and tasty food! Would recommend.

Nicholas Fay

Very nice environment, great staff, tasty food.... A bit pricey but wroth the experience

Kurt Shimala

Based on reviews I thought I would try this restaurant even though it was empty when I went there. Restaurant was nice inside and I was hoping that food would be great but I was disappointed. I had the French Onion soup and there were barely any onions in the soup, it was not hot and the croutons were from a bag and tasted stale. How difficult is it to have more onions in the Onion Soup and then toast a couple pieces of baguette for the soup. I then had the elk burger which looked like it was bought at fast food restaurant and thrown on the plate along with the fries from a combo meal. The burger had one small slice of tomato, one small piece of iceburg lettuce and a small amount of the cheese. It tasted okay but could have been so much better with a little effort. Salad that comes with burger was fresh and the dressing was good. Server was attentive and friendly. Not sure if it was an off night but based on what I experienced it should not have such high ratings. I won’t be dining at this place next time in Quebec.

Huong Giang

Cozy bistro with great service and attention, right in Petit Champlain. It serves nice French dishes.

Aman Singal

Great lunch. Fabulous chicken salad. Charles was witty, knew the menu and wine list and had some great travel tips

Liz Carmona

I had the duck confit, poutine with peppercorn gravy, as well as the salad with cranberries, candied pecans and maple syrup dressing. The food was okay, nothing special. Service was good.

Godwin Thambithurai

Food, mood and position. Very tasty, only down side is the ravioli portion is too little!

Vy Do

I was looking for a place to dine and I saw the meals people on the patio were enjoying, looked very appealing and decided to approach. The hostess answered my questions and I decided to stay. The waiter I had was very friendly and very accommodating... I do regret not having the Onion Soup... it looked delicious!! The Crème Brulee was amazing!! I would rate the service as 5 just because I cannot rate higher. The hostess and waiter were a delight!!... and I seriously thought about going the following day again, but wasn't close by.

Benedicto Rodriguez Prieto

What a conundrum - adorable little restaurant that gives the impression of fine dining, with a welcoming and excellent server, but missing the mark in several places: salad dressings were clearly store bought; shredded cheese on poutine rather than curds; bland and overcooked duck, etc. With regret, I do not recommend.

Steven Yuan

Great place

Great food and friendly service. Want to return soon.

Caynen Wills

Nicholas was amazing!!! So friendly and a great sense of humour. The food was fresh and tasty. We came across this restaurant strictly by chance. Highly recommended. Will definitely go back when we return to Quebec City!

Kelly B

This isn't the most upscale restaurant in QC, but the food and service are consistently good.

Chris Chen

This place was great. So much so we went back a second time and left a 50% tip. I didn't get his name but it seemed like the main host was our server and he made the whole night spectacular. The first time we went to this place he eagerly greeted us and fit us in despite not having a reservation. He was nice. The second time he was our server and really enjoys what he does. He talked with us a bunch and recommended different things and cracked a few jokes. We loved every moment. The food is also top knotch. I had the mushroom ravioli the first time and the salmon the second. My husband had the elk burger both times. Just a great experience. I highly recommend it.

Shanti Rock

Very good atmosphere and service!

Best meal of our trip. Highly recommend

Adrian Maclaren

Tucked away in one of Québec Old Port’s winding alleyways sits this charming little bistro. The food options range in all sorts of flavors, and the portions are great! We enjoyed the bison burger and the quiche, both excellent and very shareable. The service was so very friendly and the prices superb. ???????? This caliber of restaurant, with their hospitality and overall vibe, would be much more expensive in the United States, in our opinion. We got to sit right next to a window in the rosy light, watching the passers-by as they snapped quick pictures of the ice sculptures outside our window. Such a lovely experience...check it out if you’re here!

Nina B

Bistro Sous le Fort is a very pleasant and cute restaurant. The location is great in Vieux Quebec. The staff are exceptional; the chef even served my meal himself. The food was literally second to none. The beer, meal, and dessert were absolutely fantastic. I will be back.

Stephen Moffat

The food, the service all par excellence. Loved it... must visit place :) thanks for such an incredible service by service staff gentleman...they were absolutely amazing. Thanks team for a great experience.

Budi Kurniawan

This was the first place we ate on arriving in Quebec and the food was very tasty. The poutine turned out to be the best I tried during my visit and the brie with maple and pecans was a big hit too. Prices were reasonable especially given its prime location in old town.

cynthia shellhaas

As always this cozy little venue, warms your heart, as well as delighting your palate. Amazing waiting staff, a romantic winter interlude beside the fireplace on a cold blustery winter day, is indescribable.

Jacquelyn Page

We went there on our anniversary on September 13, 2019. We asked for the table by the window of which they obliged. Our waitress was amazing and the food outstanding . After our dinner they brought us Maple liquors with sparkler in it for our celebration. They thought of everything. The Maple cake was to die for a must even if you are full. Please take the time to have dinner at this beautiful quaint place in Old Quebec city.

Gordon Bouchard

This is a lovely little restaurant a few hundred feet from the funicular station after you descend from the Hotel Frontenac. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. We had a memorable family meal - everything was well prepared, tasty, and nicely presented. Among the appetizers we tried the wild-boar spring rolls (my favorite), the duck rillettes (excellent also), tempura shrimp and french onion soup (can't go wrong here). Their fish-n-chips were very good. All of this washed down with a bottle of their Smoking Loon Pinot grigio. The staff at this bistro really made us feel at home and together with the food and decor created a wonderful ambience! Will definitely eat here again on our next visit to Quebec!

Carla Cano

This is a really cute restaurant. It is perfectly located, right by Quartier Petit Champlain. It is small and cozy, it has a romantic vibe. The food is really good, especially the onion soup, it's delicious. Best seats are by the window. The staff is very attentive and friendly.

Sarah Jones

Quite nice Restaurant. Appetizer was nice and tasty. Elk Burger was little disappointing. Cheap bread and tastes like frozen patty topped with lovely vegetables. But Staff was really nice and friendly, next time would try something else. Sitting outside in the sun is nice and covered with umbrellas. Prices are ok for the surounding.

G Kau

Enjoyed this quaint restaurant in Old Quebec. Elk burger was good and so is the wine menu. The plastic covers and blankets on the patio were a nice touch on those cool fall days.

winnie thai

This place is very small but very quaint and lovely! Our server was kind and made great suggestions for food and drink. I ordered the duck rillete and my husband ordered the lox (which was actually amazing- we've never had this type of lox; it was a fillet instead of thin slices). I also ordered the creme brule and it was delicious! Highly recommend this cozy place!!!!

Thomas Byrne

Oh my gosh I dream about this onion since we stopped at this port in Quebec City. Yes, it is the best onion soup EVER. I can't wait to go back there .

Ashis Bhisey

You have to try the brie cheese flavored with rhum, maple syrup and pecans! Nice people watching porch to dine on.

Dan Rotzien

Their food and service is really good. We ordered fish and chips and it was so nicely done. We really love the place and will definitely recommend to all fish and chips lovers ????.

Kelly Bartel

Great restaurant, we enjoyed sitting outside. Service was very good. Recommend the French onion soup.

Cindy Radford

Great little pub. Lots of drink choices and tasty snacks. We had the wings (very good and with a slight kick). The pizza (if there are three of you, just ask them to cut it into 6 slices, they will). We also had the French onion soup, this was good, not awesome (missed it a bit on the flavour). Perfect place to stop and people watch. We’d go back. Oh, if they have the sangrias, get one. Our server, who had an awesome sense of humour, suggested it for me. Glad I got it. Super tasty. Sorry no food photos, just my husband and son on the outdoor patio. Try this place.

Lorna Lang

Amazing lunch. Best meal I had in Quebec City. Real quality. Very small so call ahead.

Anita Stevens

Had the steak and fries. Ask for poutine fries... they were a joke. Steak was just okay. Ambiance was nice. Stick to burgers.

Steven Martel

Service

ken erickson

The food is so good it's almost indescribable ! The service we had was fantastic. Three different servers attended our table of two, and we were served promptly and courteously, in a friendly but not smoozie manner. This is a short review as there isn't much that needs to be said. If you are in Quebec city and want to enjoy an amazing meal in a delightful old part of the city go to Bistro Sous le Fort. You will be happy you did !

Holly Runion

Love the atmosphere and the friendly staff. The mushroom ravioli is possibly the best I have ever had.

Mandie Clark

Had the pork burger here in May. Food tasted great and service was top notch with accommodating for my dairy allergy.

Ed Pollock

Very good food, great service. The Maple Cake is off the hook!

Ajay Brivic

Great atmosphere; delicious food presented very well; great wine list; wonderful wait staff; will definitely return

Wilek Lowther

Lou did a great job of serving us and was very friendly and wanting to make sure we were taken care of. If it wasn't for her, the blonde lady would have been adamant that we would need to wait 20 minutes like she told other people as we sat on the patio. Thanks Lou. We enjoyed the French onion soup, the wild boar egg rolls and the Brie appetizer. If I lived in Quebec, I would be back. Dan

J T

Amazing food. The brie with maple syrup, rum and pecans is a really novel Canadian flavour. Service was top notch and a half. Highly reccomend

Jenny Kashyrskaya

Unfortunately found the piece of foil in one of the soups ... and this place used to have one of the best onion soups in quebec. Unfortunately, not any more. Duck was good but potatoes and a sausage had very weird taste... service was good.

Kate R

They were so kindly and food was great.

Helene Rodrigue

Claudie Laplante

(Translated) "Surprised" I really am. I did not expect so much. As I am reluctant to tourist places, I tend to avoid them. But hey sometimes it is a question of trying to judge well. The very warm and courteous welcome. Food is very good. But for a bistro it's more than excellent. However, I give a gold medal to their au gratin onion soup. Just for that it's worth going for a walk. She is truly unbeatable. The service is impeccable and very professional. The presentation of the tables is very original and inviting. The prices are fairly fair especially for the sector. There is a charming heated terrace, free Wi-fi. Really, I am amazed and I recommend. (Original) "Étonné" Vraiment je le suis. Je ne m'attendais pas à aussi bien. Comme je suis frileux des endroits touristiques, j'ai tendance à les éviter. Mais bon parfois il s'agit d'essayer pour bien en juger. L'accueil très chaleureux et courtois. Les aliments sont très bien. Mais pour un bistrot c'est plus qu'excellent. Je donne cependant une médaille d'or à leur soupe à l'oignon gratinée. Juste pour cela ça vaut la peine d'aller faire un tour. Elle est vraiment imbattable. Le service est impeccable et très professionnel. La présentation des tables est très originale et invitante. Les prix sont plutôt honnêtes surtout pour le secteur. Il y a une charmante terrasse chauffée, Wi-fi gratuit. Vraiment, je suis étonné et je recommande.

Kevin Couter

Excellent menu. I highly recommend

Delicious! 5 stars for great service, tasty food, amazing ambiance. My steak was perfect and my partner's onion soup was incredible.

Pablo Garcia

Wonderful service and really nice food.

Bill Ray

The elk burger was overcooked/dry and lacked flavour. I also ordered the side of poutine for an extra $4.25 which they added shredded cheese and a little gravy over there normal fries? The other food on the menu did look better.

Rifaat Tahir

Raphael is an amazing waiter. He really made our dinining experience amazing. We got the set menue for 30$. It was well worth it. Call first and ask if Raphael is there.

Anthony S.

Amazing staff, great food, would totally recommend!!!

Alex MERAD

French onion soup was too bland. Wild boar ground meat tastes as regular meat with no charisma. Catchy dish names worth nothing without good taste. Escargot had way too much fennel or anise. I would add to menu escargot in garlic sauce as alternative.

J Prop

I am not sure what happened. Such a bad experience. We went there for the good reviews this place had. Last night there was a server lady there and she was super rude with us. We left because of her. First she brought 4 glasses of water tumbling all over the place dripping water on our table. Then when we were ready to order we asked her to bring appetizers first and she asked us very rudely to order everything at once (including the mains). Well, this surely wasn’t a classy french experience. There loss as we went to another place after and spent $150 on 2 of us. ????????

Ada Alakhverdiants

Everything is delicious.

Boris Makhlin

Food was great. Service was slower than expected even with a reservation.

Ben Qu

Excellent food great service.

Maria Torres

Wonderful food, especially if you like meat. Great service and atmosphere

Felder Fogle

I want in for a quick chicken salad at lunch and it was excellent..and also gluten free! The decor is comfortable. It's a mix of rustic and modern. This bistro is in a great location if you are looking to check out the little strip of shops in lower town. It's on one of the cobblestone streets and close to the water, so it's a good area for a stroll. There are also plenty of other restaurants around, so you can also eat and then look around for your next meal, if you're staying in the area from our of town. It's relatively close to the lift up the hill.

Carr

Très délicieuse! The venison was so tender and the potatoes that came with was a flavour explosion in your mouth. Nicholas was adorable and made the whole experience a memorable one.

JIN GAP PARK

It’s was so good, kids had Elk burger, also very good.

Tony Hecquet

One of the best place for lunch or dinner. Waiters are way too polite and food is amazing especially the maple cake with fresh cream on it. Loved it.

Luke Pierlet

The real price for this soup is 3$ maximum. Bread has to be paid separately and is overpriced too.

Great service. Good food. Very good location and atmosphere.

George Tali

Onion soup is a must. The elk burger was great. The beef burger was okay.

Diane Dostert

An excellent gem of a restaurant. We happened across it while strolling through old Quebec City and thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was excellent, good wine and great food. Very clean and the staff paid close attention to cleaning protocols. Felt very safe and very satisfied when we left. A must try location with an excellent menu.

Daniela Damm

Best French onion soup I have ever had in my life!

Michele Schrader

Nice small little bistro with fantastic cocktails. I recommend it for lunch, I had their Elk burger which I found to be pretty good.

Mohamed Omar

Excellent food and amazing attention. You'll have to wait in line for a bit but it's definitely worth the wait. Servers were very helpful, they helped me to charge my phone and also stored my bags until I was done with lunch. I had two entrees and they were very good. Definitely a must go place if you're visiting Quebec city.

Kay

My friend and I were walking around Petit Champlain dying of starvation. We looked up this place which had 4.8 stars and decided to eat here. Walked up to the door we were greeted by a very friendly gentleman which asked if we had a reservation. We didn't, however the wait was only 15 min so we decided to go to a nearby pub to just have a quick brew. We came back and sat down in fairly small but cozy restaurant that's got a very intimate and unique atmosphere. Our waiter Rafael was quite the conversationalist, entertained me in perfect English and my friend en Francais. He made some great recommendation on the food and drinks. I ordered the duck confit, it was delectable and probably the best duck I've ever tasted. Definitely recommend this place for the atmosphere, food and service.

Julio Lara

Amazing Service and the food was very good. Our server Frederique was top notch really kind and very fast with our amazing food

Manya Greenberg

Nice place with tasty food and very friendly staff ????????

Catherine Biollo

Delicious ????, Excellent attention and kindness.

Rene Smith

Had New Years 2018/19 dinner here and wasn’t disappointed. Probably seats no more then 24 people at a time. Food was excellent, and staff didn’t make me feel rushed even though they were closing and I’m sure wanted to leave for their own celebrations. Wish I could have sampled more of the menu, will visit here again for sure.

sue johnson

It was a small restaurant but they provide good food and were very kind. Cozy and comfortable.

June Bel

Great service!

Raimund Marx

Loved this small quaint and intimate bistro. Service was great and staff was friendly. Food was outstanding!

Kevin Loh

This was our first meal upon arriving in Quebec. Was a little concerned because it's in a very touristy area, but the food and service did not disappoint. Not the best meal we had, but a good way to start out. We had the quiche and the elk burger, both of which were quite tasty. I've never had a quiche with pistachios baked into it before, so that was a different experience, worked well. Lots of great people watching from here, too.

Christopher Heine

My husband and I had one of the best meals of our lives at Bistro Sous le Fort, and with the absolute best service. It's a tiny place in an area with lots of cute shops within walking distance. When we are back in Quebec City, we will dedfinitely return to this restuarant.

Jerry L Harrington

I was never there!

Frank Beckett

The best french onion soup! Really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Darcy Jay

Stumbled upon this cozy restaurant and I’m so glad I did. The server was able to seat us almost right away and she was so personable and attentive the whole time. I was so amazed by the service and food! The French onion soup was good and the mushroom ravioli was life changing! My partner got the elk burger with the poutine upgrade (I was too hungry to take a pic) and that was delicious as well!

Steven West

Great food and service!

Great ambiance. Sandy, our waitress was wonderful. Drinks were nice. Food was delicious. Four of us had a wonderful evening.

Catarina Tinta

Very good place! You have to order wine

Clark Smith

Expensive. Taste and service are ok.

Brad Zaworski

There are so many lovely restaurants in QC; I recommend this one for the delicious food of course, but also the fantastic service. We could struggle through with lousy French but our waitress seemed happy to switch to English. Also a nice selection of gluten free food and it's a relief to have it listed in the menu. Highly recommend; try the brie appetizer and I'm told they make the best French onion soup in town as well. Bon appetit!

Wing Yin Agnes Lee

On the left as you walk down Rue sous le Fort, getting off the funicular. Very friendly service, relaxed and cool outdoor seating, excellent place for lunch on a hot summer day. Excellent mushroom ravioli, burger and fried fish. Indoor seating is a bit cramped.

Amazing atmosphere, good food (not excellent)!

sam hood

Lovely setting on a quaint street. Our waitress was very friendly and service was prompt. She came back several times to see if we were enjoying our food. My daughter had the mushroom ravioli which she really enjoyed. I had the goats cheese quiche which was delicious. We finished with the warm chocolate cake. Lovely ambience and delicious food, would highly recommend.

Math Jordan

Excellent food and service. It made my wife's day and that is important????

Dana Gershon

Excellent lunch!

Victor Martinez

A very cozy and delicious restaurant! The duck confit was excellent

H Khan

The staff was very friendly, the food is great, and the location is perfect. We had the Venison and Duck, they were both excellent. The Maple Cake is the best dessert I've ever had. Let me repeat that; THE MAPLE CAKE IS THE BEST DESERT I'VE EVER HAD. I don't say this lightly, and if I find a better desert, I promise to edit this review. Get it, you won't be sorry.

Jamie D Delile

Good dinner here. Nice spot and very friendly staff

Louise Poirier

(Translated) Very nice place to eat. We were served on the terrace, the waitress (FLORENCE) offered us IMPECCABLE service! 10/10.

On the other hand for the parking in the surroundings it is hell .... Plan ahead! (Original) Très belle place pour manger.

Dee Phillips

Visited there last week ( Sunday ) , we had a reservation at 5 . We have been served by grumpy waitress and we have bee given warning that we need to leave by 6 as they have another reservation. I ordered the union soup was just ok ( nothing special) . Then order the burger which the first bite was tasteless to me and when when I was about the take the second one, I saw a big hair in my food ! I called the manager and her only response to me that we are human and this happens! Worth mentioning that didn’t charge me and offered me few glasses of wine for free which I appreciate

emma Marie Michele

(Translated) It has been a sublime experience, found almost by chance. A calm and pleasant atmosphere, accompanied by calm jazz music ... They recommended the Mushroom Ravioli ... and I recognize that they are wonderful ... A place to rest from the cold and enjoy the site and food. (Original) Ha sido una experiencia sublime, encontrada casi por casualidad. Una atmósfera tranquila y agradable, acompañada de música jazz tranquila...

Mushroom ravioli taste very good, probably best I've had, the burger was very tasty as well and the portions was large, price was fair for the food served, would recommend

We had dinner here on our first day in Quebec City and it did not disappoint. I had the snails and asparagus ravioli and both were simply delicious. Our server was very sweet and attentive. Highly recommended you will totally enjoy it.

(Translated) Everything was excellent ... the service with Florence, the entry of duck rillettes, generous and delicious portion. My partner's sweetbread was exquisite with a very large portion and what about the mushroom ravioli ... sublime! We more than adore ... one of the best value for money in the Petit Champlain district. (Original) Tout était excellent ... le service avec Florence, l’entrée de rillettes de canard, portion généreuse et délicieuse . Le ris de veau de mon conjoint etait exquis avec une très grosse portion et que dire des raviolis aux champignons... sublime ! Nous avons plus qu’adorer... un des meilleurs rapport qualité prix du quartier petit champlain.

My husband and I were wondering where to eat on a night when everything seemed to be closed, and then one of the ladies working here called us in from the cold and told us we could get take out. She was very lovely, and even recommended some wine to go with our meal. The food was amazing, the wine was lovely, and I hope I can eat here again if I'm back in Quebec city!

Beef burger was ordinary. The service was fantastic though. I really enjoyed the balcony.

I loved having dinner here last Saturday night. I finally found a restaurant in Quebec City that has food that I wanted to eat. There were many options that spanned from light to rich and decadent (most restaurants seem to only have options swimming in duck fat or carbs). I really enjoyed having the gravlax appetizer and quiche for dinner. The service was excellent and they were able to take us as walk-ins.

Steve Robertson

Excellent Service. The food is awesome too. It is a small restaurant, you might need to make your reservation early before.

Dave Aniston
