We went out as two couples visiting Quebec on a friend's birthday so decided to try a fancier restuarant than we usually would. We decided to look at the Prix Fixed menu which seemed to have the best deal :) However my husband decided to test the great service by knocking over his full Caesar (by mistake obviously) and they...

We ate the TABLE d'HOTE menu on a Thursday night. The quality of the meals and the presentation of each dish were fabulous. The service was perfect, one of the best we have ever experience. We enjoyed every moment of it.

We ate at this restaurant on a Saturday night in February. We fortunately made our reservation a week in advance from Montreal, which was a good thing as the restaurant was packed. This is a high end restaurant ,but well worth it as the food is amazing. We had the prix fixe, I had the ris de veaux and they... More

The steak tartare I had at la Cremailliere in Quebec was the finest I have ever had, and having visited France several times every year for the last 25, I have eaten the dish many times, in many regions. Luigi's table-side preparation was traditional and a treat for the eyes, as well as, the taste. He reported that he was... More

I went to this restaurant with a group of students during the Carnaval and was very happy with the experience. I had wanted to give my students the authentic French meal experience and I was very happy with my choice. The food was very good and the service was great too. I was incredibly impressed that the owners even came... More

Went with a colleague for dinner based on trip advisors recommendation near my hotel. The food was absolutely delicious. We both went with the prix cinq or 5 course menu. There was a lot of variety in what you could choose. I went with the chefs creation at first which was a pâté and salad, then i had a potatoes... More

I had extremely high expectations for this meal going in; a special New Year's Eve menu, featuring a focus on locally sourced and inspired ingredients and recipes, did a lot to whet my appetite. The fact that I was dropping $100 a person also meant that the bar was set extremely high. La Cremaillere not only met our expectations, but... More

Seeking an exceptional dining experience without breaking the bank, we were directed to La Cremaillere by the concierge at the Château Frontenac. We were rewarded with a $$$$$ experience at a $$$ price. The Chef's Specials provided a complete multi-course meal that entertained our pallets for a long and very-lovely evening. There were 5 of us and finding a restaurant... More
