Inside

Stopped in for breakfast while on vacation. The poutine, sausage and poached eggs were delicious! The staff is friendly and bilingual which is an added bonus. The restaurant is cozy and quaint! They even let us store our suitcases inside while we dined.

Quebec meat pie
Sandy J.

Ordered the set menu: Special Quebec set (appetizer, main entree, dessert, coffee/tea) for about 30 CAD (21 USD) with tax and tip expect that to be more of a 28 USD. I think this was worth getting if you are trying find a place with a bit of everything to sample local fare. Out of the set menus out there, I thought this one had the more comprehensive offer. Appetizer: Canadian pea soup- this is more of a hearty split pea soup with possible bacon in it. Not vegetarian. but quite good and a good welcome after wandering around cold snowy Quebec. Entree: Quebec meat pie w/ gravy on the side, fries and salad. The meat pie makes me think of a Chinese beef burger- so if you're into asian fare, consider this set for sure. The gravy is must to bring the pie to life and that's where it stops tasting like a Beijing meat pastry. Fries were actually quite good- well made. Salad was with a mayonnaise type of dressing. Dessert: maple syrup pie- I see people complaining on the side it's small but for this set, you're pretty full that this size is perfect to tie up a meal with a sweet ending. You can taste the maple syrup, sweet, decadent with a home made crust. inside has a casual atmosphere- think pub meets Canadian log cabin. Didn't get the 5 start not because of the food but because of the attitude of our server. they weren't mean and the service was efficient and fast, but I had the overall impression they were kind of judgy and not very warm even though I was already speaking some French. They gave enough of a cold attitude that it actually affected this overall meal. I would come back for the food but hope we don't get the same server.

Super moist chicken breast

We went for breakfast and returned for dinner! This is a hidden gem! Food is really good, fast and attentive service and they speak 3 languages! We will go back tomorrow. Do not understand why people make huge lines instead of going here. We found a place to sear both tones, no wait. All staff are so nice too!

Pancakes with ham
Norma L.

Came here upon recommendation of the hotel receptionist. He said they offered our hotel guests a discount and there have a homey atmosphere. It was a quick 5 minute walk. He was right! I enjoyed my Quebec Meat Pie Special very much. The meat pie crust was a little dark, but the inside meat was like a tender pot roast with chunks of potato. And the mushroom gravy was so delicious. I also enjoyed the roasted veggies - carrots, mushroom, tomato... (A friend tried the Meat Pie at another famous restaurant nearby & the inside was like hamburger!) The pea soup was like a ham & bean soup. The maple syrup pie was quite sweet and reminded me of pecan pie without the pecans, but the fresh fruits balanced the sweetness. All of the staff were so welcoming & friendly. I returned a few days later for breakfast and also had a very pleasant experience. I would definitely return & recommendation to others.

Onion soup + croque monsieur / IG @mwy.eats
Michelle W.

My group of 10 and I were looking for a quick lunch while exploring Carnaval just down the street. We were enticed by the 2 for $10 mimosa sign outside and quickly seated. The staff were quite nice offering to take a group photo for us (though one person was cut out of every photo lol), joking around, and chatting to our group. What we got: - Mimosas - French Onion Soup - Croque Monsieur Final Thoughts: Food was quite underwhelming besides the mimosa deal. I've had better onion soup and also almost choked on a bay leaf stem in my soup. The croque monsieur was kind of cold and dry. It also didn't seem to come with a bechamel sauce either so very different from our expectations. I would only come back for the mimosa deal.

Tiramasu
Richard B.

The food was delicious. The tiramasu was excellent. The owner and servers were a lot of fun, we even sang parts of a few songs together. Highly recommend.

Interior

Poutine
Asdrymarie P.

I loved the service and the food in this place. We went late at night. We were the last customers and didn't even feel like that at all. That day, we ordered desserts to go, and those were great too. In the morning we decided to go back there again and again the service and the food were great. It's definitely recommended, I might cross the border just to go get my Benedict Eggs breakfast again. Haha

Chicken sandwich
Sara W.

Stoppednin as we were hungry and 6 looked good. Got the chicken sandwich, which is listed under the grilled cheese. And garlic cheese bread. The chocken was cold but tasted fine. There was a sauce on the sandwich I wasn't expecting. Came with a salad and cold fries. The garlic bread was good where the cheese was. The lady that was busing the tables was super nice and spoke great english.

$25 again for some dried out quiche

The place was OK. It's a tourist trap like every other restaurant in the area. It's high prices and American cheap food. $25 for a four egg omelette is ridiculous but the whole area to be fair is the same way you can't get anything under $20. Nothing is worth the price. It's pretty bad but to be fair. It's all the restaurants over there I hit a lot of of them and they are all ridiculously not worth it. Kind of disappointed I went to Old. Quebec felt like I was eating at a diner in the USA. I heard some other group complaining that the meat was inedible.

I was fortunate to have breakfast (well, it was lunchtime, but I ate breakfast) at Cafe Bistro l'Omelette twice during my stay in Quebec City at the end of April 2024. I thought the interior was quaint and charming. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. The meals were freshly prepared and hot - and quite large for the price. The sausage they served was wonderful - such a thin, crispy skin, unlike American sausages with that skin that you have to gnaw through. You didn't have to wait long to eat. I also stopped in one night after a disappointing meal at another restaurant so that I could have some creme brulee, which did not disappoint. I would happily return if I can get back to Quebec City.

I wasn't too hungry so I ordered an app for my entree, the bruschetta. It came loaded with seasoned tomato pieces. Hubby ordered the pasta with clams in a spicy sauce. There was a misunderstanding with his meal. When hubby asked questions about the carbonara, our server thought he ordered the carbonara when he actually decided on the pasta with clams. When the wrong meal was brought over, our server escalated to his manager who then offered to exchange his meal. They kept apologizing for the mixup but honestly, they already handled it well by replacing it without issues. The pasta dish was so good! I scooped the extra sauce with my crostini and really enjoyed it. The clams were meaty and fresh too. Daughter ordered the pasta with meat sauce- also very good. This small restaurant has tables pretty close together and is part of a hotel. If anything needs to be improved, it's the ventilation. Afterwards, our clothes had heavy food scents!

The food at Matto was of excellent quality and the food came in a timely manner. The service was…read moregreat in that the waitress checked up on us often. The steak could have been a bit more rare, but that is just a personal preference. The seafood pasta was delicious and the cheese was also very tasty. The restaurant is situated in a nice looking hotel and the ambience is quite good for a date.

Truly unbelievable. It is very difficult to get a reservation here. They seat only 22 people total. Two seatings per evening. We had to try every day for a few weeks and finally managed to grab two seats at the counter for the 8:45 seating on Saturday night. As it turned out we were seated exactly opposite the chef and his stove/oven. Every course was perfectly cooked. The wine was a perfect pairing, and we spent the entire evening speaking with the chef as he worked. Have never had a better meal. If you can get a table, do it. It will change your life.

The space is small, and we snagged a reservation right when they opened up a few weeks in advance, knowing this was a must-try spot for our trip to QC. So glad we did. The stand out dishes for us were the tortellini, the char appetizer, the anchovy snack, and the crab lettuce app. Everything was very fairly priced, and the couple of different wines we tried were excellent. The service was a bit frazzled, but they were pleasant and knew the menu intimately. We plan to try to get into their sister restaurant, Melba, today!
