Our highlight was the Dégustation de la Mer. This platter included salmon rillettes, smoked salmon and smoked sturgeon with confit d'oignon, bread.... yummmmm. We also had a bottle of cherry cider, I'm not a big cider fan but when in Rome. It was better than other ciders had in the past, ie not too sweet. For our mains, we had a steak (delicious) and pulled pork (delicious). A must-try if you're on the island.

Oh, le Corylus...I am so glad I found you. I had never been to Isles aux Coudes (will be back!) and…read morewas thrilled to find this charming restaurant with the most hospitable service here on the island. The views are spectacular as is the ambience. I started with a gin cocktail made with juneberry, or amélanchier, native to the area. It was fresh and delicious. We split an order of Salade de Charlevoix, which was a fresh salad of greens, spirulina and other vegetables, quail egg, delicious cold cuts similar to saucisson sec and cheese dressed with a fresh juneberry vinaigrette. We also split the pizza aux fruits de mer (pétoncle et crevette), which is a rich and divine pizza made with scallops and shrimp, a ton of cheese and a white wine sauce. It was heavenly and oh-so-rich. For dessert, we had to get a local pastry shop slice of the tarte à l'amélanchier. It was good, but not as good as the rest of the meal. I love that all the items offered for drinks and food are mainly locally-sourced, including the wonderful concoctions from Vergers Pedneault. Please take the ferry from Baie-Saint-Paul and visit this charming island and visit. You will not be disappointed.

Hard to find a vegan and gluten free combo, but I can personally cheat once in a while on gluten. Very good crispy french fries, great salad. My mom had the naan tuna salad sandwich. She liked it. We were on a very busy day and one staff member was lacking so service was long but employees kept smiling and were energetic. Cute sitting area outdoor in front. I know there is a big patio behind but did not go. NOTE: bathrooms only available on upper floor. Cute modern/rustic decor. Voilà!

Seriously is was lovely outside and there are heaters if you need them. The ambiance inside was cozy local with seats at the bar or tables. The musical programming was great, all English old hits and people were grooving. The service was great, again they encouraged and were pleased with our French and denying the English menu. We drank "pear drops" a martini infused with a splash of the house pear ginger cordial. I made it up and they liked it I think! We split a salmon tartare with salad for $32 which was delicious and more than enough for two. This might become our headquarters for the trip. Recommended.

My wife went to college and Montreal and I lived in the New York City area. Although neither of us is Jewish, we both enjoyed some of the best Jewish deli food in North America. Our food arrived around 10 minutes later and looked very good. The meat was piled high with two pieces of untoasted rye bread. There was a bottle of plain yellow mustard on the table. We started with the smoked meat sandwich. The meat was so tender and had a good flavor. The flavor was not as strong as we were used to. The rye bread was cut thick and it too did not have the strong rye taste we expected. The cole slaw was excellent with a very good taste. The chips were just out of a bag. Overall, this was a good meal, but it didn't have that "extra" that would push it into a great meal. It's definitely worth eating here. Monrealers and New Yorkers may be a bit disappointed, but they won't leave hungry.

Faux Bergers is not your typical restaurant, you don't just go there for food but also for the experience. I reserved a table online about a week in advance. They offer a 7 course meal from only the local ingredients in the region, almost each dish is explained to you before you taste it. I loved their cabbage salad with carp caviar, definitely a unique tasting dish. The service is great as well. I highly recommend this place if you consider yourself a foodie or just love trying out new things. You won't regret it!

This is the best table and dining experience in the region. It's a hyper-local 7-course meal with…read moreingredients either found directly on the farm or within a fee kilometres. They're located directly on the farm (actually a cheesemaking facility) in a space made for dining and are really passionate about their products. The menu is completely unknown which adds a little bit to the mystery. I would highly recommend you give them a call 48 hours in advance to mention things you don't eat, they're very accommodating. The wine card is short but nice, they're mostly private imports. There's a communal feeling to the whole thing as everyone arrives at the same time and eats at the same time. Every course comes with a thorough description of the ingredients' origins and how they were prepared. It's also a good deal for what you're getting/discovering. One thing they could work on is the dining area: the chairs could be upgraded. I never say this but we were somewhat uncomfortable throughout the evening.
