While walking through the city, I wanted something light to eat, and stopped by Le Petit Chǎteau, as the deck look inviting. The service was friendly, there was a light breeze in the deck seating area, and the umbrellas provided a perfect shade from the sun. I ordered the soup of the day, which was a delicious turnip soup, nicely puréed with a hint of maple syrup. Then I looked the dessert offerings, and the waitress recommended the maple butter crepe with ice cream. With a cup of coffee, it was the perfect ending to a nice restaurant experience. I recommend stopping by. read more

Friendly staff but still a tourist trap. Food was mediocre and yet, quite pricey. The spot was a bit cramped. At least they had some decent live music. It's not a bad spot, but you could do better if you walked around more. read more

Their menu board focuses on fondue but that's not a breakfast offering, and besides, crepes! AMAZING Crepe La Saint-Louis, which had ham, mushrooms, cheese, & cream sauce. I don't eat deli ham, so I was wondering if I should swap it out for chicken or just leave it off, but decided to trust European style dining because we're not in the US, peeps, and yeah, it was chunks of real ham. Came with a salad. Should have each ordered it and skipped the respectable but can get it anywhere strawberry & blueberry crepe with raspberry sauce, because I will rhapsodize about that Crepe La Saint-Louis. Then we also had a maple butter crepe, which has a scoop of ice cream inside, and which would have been so much better if we'd eaten it in the other direction. Thing is, when you maple butter the crepe on the griddle, it's the center working out that gets the good stuff, not the edge. And folded around the ice cream, had we started at the thickest part we'd've had the best part and work our way out to be mopping up the melt and squish and spill from forking up ice cream using the drier edge part. But starting with the edge, it seemed like a very unimpressive, largely just crepe batter concoction, and by the end we were trying to mop with the part that was already saturated. Learn from our mistakes! Attentive service, patio seating very chill. read more

I was intrigued with the place every time I passed by. Crepes and fondue, what could go wrong? So we planned to eat here for our last meal in Quebec City. Service was fast and really friendly. It was really central and a cute little place. There was even live music. At 6:30 pm, the place was not so crowded for a Friday night. We got crepes: Apple and cheese, and ham and cheese. Pretty basic and tasteless. The maple syrup was definitely needed. But it couldn't be helped. The salads were douched in dressing, and I just couldn't finish it. My child's spaghetti was pretty good at least. I think for the price point and location it was not a good. There are many great places to eat in the area, and more value. read more

I really don't like giving negative reviews but I have to be honest, the service here is terrible. We went in on Saturday afternoon for a cocktail after walking around town. Our server Pascal, could have cared less that we were there. We were impressed with the fondue on their menu so we made a reservation for Sunday at 6 for our dinner hoping it would be a better experience. It was not. Even though we had a different server we still had to flag someone down to tell them we had not been approached by anyone to even take a drink order much less our food order. We watched as two ladies got disgusted with the fact that nobody came to their table to serve them and they got up and walked out. The fondue was good, but the management needs to wake up and address this because no one wants to be ignored when they are paying for food and service and the service is non existent. I would not recommend this establishment because once was bad enough, but twice, ridiculous! read more

À éviter absolument / Avoid this place at all costs J'ai travaillé ici 4 ans et je n'ai jamais été payé pour environ 3000$ de travail effectué. Le propriétaire refuse de payer et m'a même bloqué après avoir demandé mon salaire. De plus, ils ne respectent pas les lois de base en matière d'hygiène et de conservation des aliments. Il est arrivé plusieurs fois que de la nourriture périmée ou mal conservée soit servie aux clients. J'ai déjà déposé une plainte officielle auprès de la CNESST pour non-paiement des salaires. Si vous pensez y travailler, fuyez. Et si vous pensez y manger, réfléchissez à deux fois. -- Do not go there / Avoid this restaurant at all costs I worked here for 4 years and was never paid for about $3000 worth of work. The owner refused to pay and even blocked me after I asked for my salary. On top of that, they don't follow basic food safety or storage laws. Food is often expired or poorly conserved before being served to customers. I've already filed a formal CNESST complaint for unpaid wages. If you're thinking of working here, don't. And if you're thinking of eating here, think twice. read more

I do not understand the bad reviews! We LOVED this place! Great service, delicious food, and a beautiful terrace. What more could anyone want? Very fresh food! Best crepes we've ever had - and we spend a good amount of time in France. Excellent bread, and the best lemonade I've ever tasted. read more

Maple crepe with icecream inside! Stop the press! Hidden away on the walk path. Get away from the crowds and treat yourself to some French authentic crepes - especially on a hot day. Furthermore go big and get some poutines! If you go during the off peak hours, service is fast. But as always - be kind to your service. They have to deal with tourists and locals. read more

We came here for quick lunch because it was just at the corner of hotel le château Frontenac. The vegetable crepe was good for quick lunch; light and feel healthy. The French onion soup was not so good and I can't even finish it; it was more watery and the cheese was tough to bite down to swallow. The French crepe was average. Hot chocolates were decent. Service was good and the staffs were friendly. Price was right for quick lunch. read more

It's good and was easy to get a reservation short notice. Cheese fondue was great as far as the cheese goes. But the veggies we ordered with it were kind of weird and no potatoes, and the bread was stale. Caesar salad was excellent. Mussels were just ok. Kids crepe with ham and cheese was just a crepe with shredded ham on top. read more

Medicore at best. Service was slow and ruined the whole experience. Kept waiting for her to light the sterno. Just horrible experience. There are many other great places in the area. We would've had a nicer meal at the Christmas market. read more

As some people have mentioned, the service was a bit slow at first, but once our waiter came to the table, things moved along at a good pace, and the service was very friendly. The trois fondues (cheese followed by beef, then chocolate) for 2 was plenty for our family of 4! The outdoor patio looked lovely, but you have to sit inside if you're having the fondue. The cheese fondue came with just bread, but you can order a plate of sliced apples, vegetables, or charcuterie on the side for more dipping. The beef fondue was just the beef and broth. The chocolate fondue was a dark chocolate and came with fresh fruit and marshmallows. read more

Here's the positive: The cheese in the crepe was good The place is pretty They were very attentive when coming around to refill the coffee The waiter and waitress were friendly Here's the negative: The bottom of the crepe was stuck to the plate The toast was burnt There were really shriveled up grapes on the plate The apples were not fresh The beans were from the can When we first got here, there was only one waitress and I felt so bad for her. It was if everyone else was was like thirty minutes late. The fries and bacon were not crispy Not very authentic They gave us the wrong check My dad: "Ihop is better" My mom: "worst crepes I've ever had" Also pretty expensive for something not that tasty. Maybe try something else? Hopefully the fondue is better? Kk sorry guys read more

Have been to this place a few times now - and we make sure to visit every time we are in Quebec City. This little restaurant sits literally in the shadow of the grand Chateau Frontenac Hotel which itself is on the boardwalk of the St. Lawrence River. The restaurant faces Rue Saint Louis and is in the heart of all the activity. We dropped in one evening - when the place really comes alive - to have a few Canadian beers and some poutine (what's not to like about that mixture). The beers were great, and the poutine was 4 star stuff with a nice rich veal-based gravy. And they know how to French fry the potatoes to avoid giving you limp ones - good poutine. We did not have any crepes! All in all this was a nice place. Great location, nice vibe to all the activity going on in the neighborhood, and really a perfect walkable spot on your adventure in Quebec. The restaurant has a dozen or so tables inside, but most of the seating is on an outside deck that is fabulous when the weather co-operates. Give this place a try - and have poutine. read more

If I could give this restaurant zero stars, believe me, I would. For a place that prides itself on authentic Quebecois cuisine and traditional French desserts, this establishment fell woefully short of expectations. Upon ordering my dinner, the "parmesan cheese" tasted more like sugary sawdust than any cheese I had ever tasted. Never have I seen such an atrocity! It was a culinary crime, one I find unforgivable in such an establishment. Even the "tomato sauce" on the spaghetti tasted more like watered down salsa than anything with French heritage. The atmosphere of the establishment was equally dreadful. The owners clearly don't care about creating a hospitable environment; they have no appreciation for the aesthetic of the restaurant and the ambience was stale and offensively forgettable. I don't want to get on a soapbox, but as someone who takes pride in the spectacular cuisine of Quebec City, I find it appalling that this restaurant continues to stay open and taint the good name of the great city. It would be a service to the city and its people if this restaurant were shut down. Stay away from this place if you value your taste buds and would like to keep your wallet in one piece. read more

Went here for a late breakfast one morning because, as were all of the places we dined - close to our hotel. And because they proudly display a large awning with the words "creperie". You first walk into a small reception before getting seated in the back which is a decently sized room with an entire wall of windows. It feels like a sun room almost. The decor and table settings were very minimal. I ordered a breakfast crepe - eggs and bacon . It wasn't all that special, nothing to write home about. Pretty plain tasting. Paired it with a glass of OJ. Honestly not the best crepes, not even close. It filled us up- briefly. Just seemed underwhelming and pricey for what you were served. read more

Not much to say but if you're looking for a nice ambiance then stay. The outdoor courtyard where we were seated was delightful and Our server was decent no complaints there! Our late lunch here was just short on one thing "taste" and it's such a shame cause this place has such potential with just where it's located nearby such an iconic hotel. We ordered the Crepes and they were like burnt shoe leather and stuck to the plate (if I made what they served us at home my dog would have jumped up and bitten me where the sun nebber shines!) Come on guys I thought we were being taped for a "What would you do" show and I was expecting John Quinones to step out smiling to let us know we were pranked and pay for our meal! (Unfortunately no such luck) Our sandwiches were just very average and the bread it was served on was stale! Needless to say we were not fans of the food here and understandably we won't be back! read more

I like the mushroom and cheese crepe, the mushroom and white bechamel sauce crepe was also good. Thin and nicely folded. Doesn't look too big, but is quite filling.

We had the fondue for two. It was pretty good. I would've liked more options than bread to go with the cheese, but it was delicious. The main dish was ok, too many onions in the broth for my taste.

All restaurants in Quebec are at least $$$. So with that being said we had the trio which was decent. Started with cheese fondue, beef fondue and then swapped for maple over chocolate fondue for desert. Had an apple spritzer which was nice. Fondue meal came with salad, potato and sauces. All tasty. Server was helpful and good. And dessert was a good ending to the meal. It's in a touristy location but all rest in the area are comparable and pricey. So something a little different. read more

My wife and son shared the 3 course fondue special (Beef). My daughter and I shared the 3 course fondue special (chicken) for 1 and the 3 course crepe special for 1. The cheese fondue was very good. There wasn't much difference between 1 and 2 person cheese fondue. Ordered side of apples instead of just eating bread with it. The seafood crepe was good. The desert (strawberry crepe) was pretty bad. We were given a ton of steak and chicken and couldn't finish all the chicken. The chicken for 1 was enough for 2. The chocolate fondue was very good. We were there for 2 hours and the service was good. Pricing was reasonable for Quebec. Still prefer the melting pot in the US. Recommend going to a different place for crepes. read more

Went on a Saturday night- sat inside by the windows and they had a wonderful musician on the terrace to listen to Had a great white Bordeaux and cheese fondue with the deli and veggie extras. Fondue was good but they take the use of ok'd bread a bit far (read: hard) Chocolate fondue was good but the dipping selections could improve for sure. The only real disappointment was the kids menu.. Very limited and there was like 10 strands of spaghetti- far too little , esp for pasta! Service: good not great. Would go back, without kids read more

Perfect example of a restaurant to avoid at all costs. This place is where you end up when the other restaurants have already closed for lunch and you're pressed for time and it happens to be in the tourist center. Also it's partially our fault because we rushed in without having had a chance to review the yelp situation. read more

We wanted crepes for lunch and found this place near the Fairmont. There were only two tables occupied at lunch. This didn't appear to be a popular place. I should have checked reviews first. We thought the crepes here were simple. Mine lacked flavor and was dry. I had the apple and cheese crepe, my husband had the egg and mushroom. We ordered hot apple cider which was fantastic, though. The glass was rimmed with cinnamon and had orange slices as garnish. The man that seated us was also the server. He wasn't very friendly and I felt a bother to him. He had no energy and looked like he'd rather be elsewhere. The restaurant itself would be cute at night when candlelit, but he silverware was cheap and the white paper napkins even cheaper. I wouldn't bother to go here. read more

Good fondue and a good place to try raclette. We had never tried raclette before so after reading about this restaurant, we decided to try it. The menu also includes fondue and crepes. Ultimately we settled on fondue for two (plain cheese), one order of raclette, and one plain veggie plate (which we ended up using as well.) the fondue was delicious. And while I did not love the flavor of raclette cheese, the presentation of it by the restaurant was quite strong. A good family restaurant, the dining room may initially seem a bit chilly, but once your fondue or raclette arrives, you'll warm up pretty quickly. read more
