I came from San Jose, CA to visit Quebec City with my wife. We visited Le Continental on a cold, windy, Saturday night in June. I was looking forward to trying their steak, served tableside flambe. Things started going wrong when I ordered a bourbon rocks, and the waiter took it from the table before I was done (OK, it... More

Even though I was alone, and not really dressed for a high end, upscale dining event, I was treated respectfully. The fixed price meal included a choice of appetizers, a wonderful mushroom cream soup, snow crab legs, already removed from the shell, a choice of desserts, and coffee. Nice piano music in the background. Some dishes were cooked at the... More

I read the mixed reviews but thought it might be fun to try a throwback to days gone by with the tableside service. MISTAKE! The waiter was either an a_s-s or had completely given up trying to keep up the appearance that this restaurant still has any credibility. I ordered the sirloin but he talked me into a filet with...

We were on holiday in Quebec recently and decided to take the food tour ( also excellent ), we were I advised that this restaurant was an exceptional restaurant and if you like steak this is the one! We weren't disappointed, it was really lovely and the staff were very professional. The food is cooked to perfection, I really enjoyed... More

The décor and overall design of this restaurant are extremely well done. The food and service are top notch. We found the wait staff to be professional, helpful, and easy to talk with. The total experience was excellent.

I agree with a previous reviewer, it was good, but not spectacular. We were seated on time, the restaurant was busy. Waiters in their white jackets were impressive. Waiter wasn't that interested to see us, he was pleasant and thats about it ( I am not expecting him to jump over the moon or anything, but loosen up a bit!).... More

Yes Le Continental specializes in the art of fine, traditional dining. The waiters are in white jackets, the décor in a grand 19th century home is warm and romantic, they prepare your Caesar's salad at the Table, and they serve an acceptable Chateaubriand for two, even though the side vegetables were nothing special. But as my wife commented when we... More

This is not a typical bistro. It's a dress-up, old-school, classical restaurant with white coated waiters, who do a lot of table side prep: Caesar salad for two, flambé, deboning fish, etc. Menu is traditional: duck à l'orange, filet mignon, lobster, rack of lamb, foie gras, etc. A few very nice specials did highlight the region, such as caribou and...

My husband & I dined at Le Continental during our visit to Quebec city, and were delighted with our wonderful choice, given it was excellent! From the excellent food (I had the salmon, which was one of the best I ever had) to the great service by our waiter Pierre, everything was simply perfect! Thank you to the entire staff... More
