When you enter the hotel - you have to head downstairs - where the restaurant is located. On the ground floor, there is a beautiful Scottish cozy waiting room and then the check in counter. In the restaurant, tables are spacious which is felt safe. The ambiance is very comfortable. The service was decent - very friendly. I ordered the duck pate and the halibut, both of which were amazingly done. Will definitely return to stay on site!

Nice place. Beautiful location with a terrace looking over the lake…read more The food is beautifully presented and it is good. Why not 5 stars? We were seated in a room behind the main terrace, with only 4 tables in this section. It felt isolated and left out. The iron chairs were not as comfortable and the atmosphere was not the same. Also, we waited for an hour to receive our main course. Our steaks were tasty, but overcooked (we asked for medium rare and medium and both got medium well). At this point we were hungry and did not want to return the dishes and wait again. The dinner was, in my opinion, overpriced. $60 for overcooked, hardly 5 oz filet mignon that arrived an hour after ordering, takes one star away. The staff was very polite.

Go early if you want the prime rib. Servers make every attempt to be bilingual. Very friendly. Full bar but they cannot do anything that is not on the cocktail menu.

The ladies highly recommend so here I am. Ample parking and easy to read signage from the road, they are handicapped accessible. We sat at the bar with our backs to the door. Atmosphere is rustic with two seating areas, one for larger parties. Drink specials menu came with regular menu and specials. I ordered the House Margarita with Blueberry. The ladies had seltzer and a beer. We ordered the Smash burger, the Roast Beef melt, and the Ramen. There was a chalk board hanging on the wall which had the meat and fish options for sale! So they do sell meats and fish but are more of a restaurant! Got it! The food came out in a timely fashion and looked great! The Ramen especially looked delightful! My Roast Beef melt was good. A bit greasy but that's to be expected with melts, cucumber salad was delicious, the fries were crispy and tasty. Smash burger was Huge and very delicious or so I was told. Bartender was wonderful making sure we had what we needed as well as providing drinks for the wait staff. Everyone was having a nice meal on a rainy Saturday in September. I definitely will be back with my husband when we drive over from Rangeley. May even grab some Game sausages.

We were seated on the patio and our very sweet server was right out to take our drink order. Since we are eating Poutine all over Canada in search of our favorite. We so enjoyed sitting on the patio, it was a beautiful day, we were people watching and enjoying the umbrellas place up the alley. Our poutine was delivered to the table and I can honestly say it was our favorite. The fries were crunch and creamy on the inside. The gravy was rich and had a deep flavor and the cheese curds had lightly melted. Every bite was perfect. The eatery and bar are tucked into a stone house that dates back to 1668, if only the walls could talk. The bar and restaurant feature local Quebec cuisine and is a gem. The service was excellent as was the atmosphere.

It is an old farmhouse so I was excited to have some local farmhouse style cooking. The dining room has been remodeled to modern furniture and finishes. That's fine, we were seated away from the view even though tables with a view remained empty during our entire meal. I ordered a glass of house Cabernet and it was Italian; maybe a Bordeaux or Burgundy instead? The food was delicious, but I ordered the seafood special "fish with shrimp" Very good but had a hard time finding the fish, which the server helped me find.

Sometimes you know immedately that a dining experience is going to be very special. At Buvett Scott…read moreI knew when our host brought us to our seats at the end of the bar (which we had reserved). They were right next to the large pick-up window looking into the kitchen, and our host then said "These are the people who will be preparing your dinner", and introduced us to each person in the kitchen... by name. This is a very small place, cozy and atmospheric. If there are just two of you, sitting at the bar is the way to go. It's where you really feel the vibe and see what makes this place so special. The food is off the hook, and changes so frequently that it's pointless for me to highlight specific dishes. We had an amazing charred broccolli, a seasonal morel dish, razor clams, and unique egg mayo concoction. Doesn't matter. the food will be exceptional whatever they are serving. Thier Michelin Bib Gourmand (exceptional food at reasonable prices) designation is well deserved. But if the soul of Buvette Scott is the food, the heart is Marine, who appeared to be the only server on duty while we were there. She is a transplanted Brit (I believe), with a quick smile and a sassy outlook. Even as busy as she was, she had the time to engage us and make us feel like we were old friends. Stories were told, laughing was had. We were the last two left from the first dinner seating that day, and Marine and part of the kitchen team sat at the bar with us as we finished and shared insights about Quebec City and how they ended up there. Rarely have I felt so comfortable and at home in a place I have never been before. Really good restaurants serve up really good food... But truly great restaurants provide an experience that impacts you on many levels, and holds a place in your memory. Buvette Scott is a truly great restaurant.
