Kebec Club Privé

Creative · ★ Michelin

$$$$

Cassandre and Pierre-Olivier are a gifted young couple. Originally from France and Quebec, respectively, they met at restaurant Laurie Raphaël. They went on to transform this hairdressing salon with an industrial vibe into a unique table d'hôte. The concept: to welcome 10 guests at a fixed time, in a friendly atmosphere, around a majestic central table. Their cuisine, strictly Québécois, showcases local ingredients with delicate simplicity. The dishes are a testament to precise cooking, whether of the cod marinated in smoked oil, scallops in a herring bone jus or roasted quail breast. Herbs –

ARVI

$$$$

On bustling Third Avenue in the neighborhood of Limoilou, ARVI is the stomping ground of chef Julien Masia, a Frenchman from Lyon, who cut his teeth in kitchens in the French Alps. As for the decor in this open-plan space, urban edginess meets contemporary design (exposed brick and concrete). The chefs move between the kitchen and tables, as a trendy playlist sets the mood. Over the course of the set menu (available in "regular" and vegetarian versions), ingredients from Quebec's terroir enjoy their moment: scallops from the Magdalen Islands, lacto-fermented Jerusalem artichoke and local yuzu;

Le Clocher Penché

Modern Cuisine · Bib

This restaurant has preserved some fine features – original tiled floor and elegant woodwork – from its previous incarnation as a bank. But gone are the safes of old, replaced by a wine cellar and pantry, and the cash counter area is now the open kitchen. With a perfect mastery of classic techniques, the chef demonstrates flair as he cooks up modern and lively market-fresh cuisine, in which refinement and indulgence come together. The wine list allows you to treat yourself without breaking the bank; the cocktails – alcoholic or virgin – provide the perfect start to the evening. Remember to boo

Ouroboros

Modern Cuisine · Bib

The name Ouroboros, like the mythological snake that symbolizes an eternal circle, reflects the way this restaurant works: from market to plate (and even composting), their approach forms a perfect cycle. The cozy bistro has comfortable seating at tables and a counter, and a concise menu that prioritizes fresh seasonal and regional ingredients, such as delicious pork gyozas served with a stout beer sauce, flavorsome chicken, Jerusalem artichokes and salsify, and an excellent apple strudel. There is no wine list here; ask owner Daniel for recommendations.

Légende

Creative, Regional Cuisine · ★ Michelin

$$$$

In a contemporary setting characterized by clean lines, Elliot Beaudoin—once a finalist of TV's Les Chefs! and former associate of the restaurant Tanière³ —serves up a cuisine that is rooted in Québec's terroirs. This establishment sets itself apart with its strictly locavore approach, which sees it using only local ingredients and eschewing exotic ingredients such as chocolate, pepper, citrus fruit, and vanilla. The menu celebrates little-known indigenous ingredients, which are put to clever and creative use. Each dish is thoughtfully composed, demonstrating the chef's keen sensibility in put

Battuto

Italian · Bib

Every month since 2016, this restaurant's 24 seats have been snapped up within minutes. The menu showcases authentic and utterly indulgent Italian cooking made with impeccable skill (Apulian burrata with salsa rossa and pepper, ratatouille and fresh basil leaves). They make all ingredients in-house, from ciabatta grilled on the barbecue and cold cuts to pasta and ice cream. The wine list is streamlined but thoughtfully composed, combining little-known labels with prestigious names, with a penchant for Italy and France. The atmosphere is convivial, and the counter seats afford front-row views o

Tanière³

$$$$

This "den" (tanière) has, beneath its ancestral vaults, a series of four rooms, one of which affords views of the brigade at work, plus a counter surrounding the open kitchen. In what might be described as his gastronomic research laboratory, avant-garde chef François-Emmanuel Nicol explores all of the nuances to be derived from the immense terroir of Québec's boreal zone. All the ingredients are sourced from small-scale producers. Mushrooms, herbs, plants, and roots are an integral part of this creative cuisine. Sophisticated cooking methods, succulent sauces and a rigorous balance of flavors

Catalan chef Stéphane Modat has set up shop in this historical house in Old Québec. Above its glass-fronted kitchen on the ground floor, it has dining rooms decorated with hunting and fishing trophies (in keeping with the chef's passions). Leaning on fish, game and red meats, the tasting menu champions ingredients from Quebec and celebrates boreal traditions: Arctic char, smoked salmon, seal, seaweed and suvalik pay homage to the fishermen of Salluit (Quebec's northernmost village). The medallion of grain-fed veal with porcini, butternut squash and nettle showcases his creativity. It's enough
