La Gaspésienne 51
Don’t let this unconventional venue shine the light away from its beautiful sea to table restaurant. Owned and operated by a family of fishermen from Gaspésie, it’s where you want to eat everything from the sea, and then some. In season, it’s where the lobster and crab are the freshest in Québec City.

Tapas & Liege
A seasonal menu inspired by the chef’s Latin origins. This large venue’s dark mole inspired decor contrasts with the colourful ingredients and vivid aromas of the small plate portions. See it as a compliment to the chef’s creativity. It’s a very Instagram-friendly environment, especially seated along the cork wall.

They say good things come in small packages. Nowhere is that truer than at Verre Pickl’, a quaint little Mexican-style bistro where chef and owner Alexandre Romero does wonders with food from nearby farms. Drawing on her roots, she creates colourful dishes full of warmth and freshness. In season, try the huitlacoche, a mushroom that grows in Québec’s corn fields and is highly prized in Mexico. The taste is nothing short of spectacular.
