The gastronomic world is not without its creativity. In fact, many of Québec City’s chefs are known far and wide. Drawing from renowned know-how, the city is also a source of inspiration for young culinary artists who boldly create original, delectable dishes that delight every sense.
Epicureans will enjoy the quality and diversity of the ever-changing creations, which may feature some unusual pairings, but are sure to please even the most discerning palate. Our chefs take great pride in using local ingredients. Know that the plate set before you with a flourish is the result of a wonderful partnership with the region’s growers. It is no wonder that there are so many restaurants per capita. Quebeckers enjoy good food and our chefs know it.
Power lunch
To maximize concentration and lower the risk of dipping energy levels, it is a good idea to opt for healthy foods at your meetings and events. For lunch, order chicken and fish: meats that are light and provide enough protein to keep you going all afternoon. Eat with a side of steamed or sautéed vegetables, a baked potato or generous serving of rice.
Simple Charms
In an intimate and cozy ambiance, Le Panache restaurant of the Auberge Saint-Antoine offers a traditional revisited Quebecoise cuisine. Crowned with four diamonds and award-winning, Panache has carved out an enviable place in the landscape of the finest restaurants in Québec City. Located between the stone walls of what was once a 19th century maritime warehouse, the dining room has an exceptional quietness and a privileged view of the river. The historic building was abandoned until its acquisition by the Price family in 1990 and has been carefully restored with the most scrupulous concern for the preservation of the treasures of our heritage.
Victorian Style
In the heart of Vieux-Québec, Hôtel Manoir Victoria offers two menu formats and two very different settings for your business meal: La Table du Manoir open at lunch for business meetings, and Chez Boulay - bistro boréal. The first is known for its sumptuous furnishings and refined cuisine featuring locally-grown ingredients in season. The second offers a Nordic-inspired cuisine in a friendly bistro-style atmosphere with a new trendy decor.
360° Dining
Astral, Loews Hôtel Le Concorde’s rotating restaurant, appeals to business clients seeking great food and a spectacular view. Before you are even seated, the glass elevator that whisks you to the 30th floor gives a stunning taste of what is to come. With its panoramic 360° panorama and mouth-watering dishes combining local ingredients and elements of fine French cuisine, this restaurant guarantees a truly unique experience.
Meat Lovers
Having mastered the art of cooking over maplewood charcoal, the prize-winning Le Beffroi Steak House in Hôtel Palace Royal (facing place D’Youville) is heaven for those who enjoy a perfectly grilled AAA steak washed down with a glass of the finest wine.
A Taste of Italy in the Old Port
Good news for those who enjoy mouth-watering Italian dishes in a trendy setting: Il Matto is coming to Vieux-Québec! Already well established in Québec West, the friendly, contemporary restaurant is taking up residence in the prestigious Hôtel 71.
A World of Flavours with Marie-Chantal
Allow Marie-Chantal Lepage, chef of the Monte Cristo l’Original restaurant at Château Bonne Entente, to take you on a trip to the four corners of the earth with her savoury dishes. Licorice-flavoured lamb tenderloin, black cod with crab ravioli, venison served with wild berry compote… The sommelier will be glad to help you pair these sumptuous dishes with the treasures on the restaurant’s extensive wine list.
A Meal by the Falls
Whether you are planning a business dinner or a banquet for 600 guests, Manoir Montmorency offers a lavish setting and a spectacular view of the country’s tallest waterfall.
