We absolutely loved our experience at Chez Rioux & Pettigrew. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, the staff was super friendly and hospitable and the food was one of the best meals we’ve ever enjoyed. My husband is celiac and the restaurant was extremely accommodating and helpful. The food was out of this world tasty and the unique blend of flavours along with the plating made it an experience to remember! A must visit restaurant if you’re in Quebec City. Also the pineapple dessert was the best thing I’ve ever tasted. A must try if you like pina coladas!
Superb experience, warm and welcoming service, creative cuisine and excellent wine list. Gravlax, oysters, fletan are superb and well crafted with a taste palette that sounds complex but stays very well tamed and subtil. A success. Scallops with coliflower was a little much on coliflower side for our taste. Overall, would recommend without hesitation. Service and creativity alone are worth the visit. Oh and price is very reasonable too!
Tried this restaurant recently and had a mixed but overall enjoyable experience. The mocktail made with beet was amazing, super unique and surprisingly delicious. Definitely a standout. For appetizers, we had the burrata dish. The burrata itself was great quality, but the ingredients around it didn’t really mesh well together. Everything tasted good on its own, but the combination just didn’t come together. The duck dish was okay. Same for the blood pudding, very unique with no foul taste or smell, but the overall flavour just wasn’t quite there. The fish dish ended up being the star of the night. The sauces and sides were fantastic and complemented everything beautifully. The fish itself was just slightly overcooked, but still tasty. Overall, some real highlights and some dishes that missed the mark, but worth trying for the unique flavours.
My family and I had a lovely dinner for our last night in Quebec City! My husband and I had the l'experience tasting menu while my daughter enjoyed the lamb loin. They did offer a children's menu (she's 9) but she was adventurous enough to have the lamb and she really enjoyed it! The restaurant was busy but the server was still attentive. All four courses were delicious and unique. We really loved the main dish, the beef was amazing! The dessert had an oats and raisin ice cream, and together with the rest of the dessert made you feel like you were having an elevated version of a home made dessert mom used to make. We truly enjoyed our meal at Chez Rioux and Pettigrew!
Chez Rioux & Pettigrew was absolutely the best culinary experience of our trip to Quebec City. The location is perfect. Just a few blocks from the touristy section of the city. The staff could not have been more friendly and courteous. The food was first class fantastic. We chose the 4 course Chefs Choice which we highly recommend. Nothing off the menu just the Chefs creations . Also the reason we are unable to describe the dishes. But from the first coarse to the last it was INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much for the fabulous culinary journey! We can’t wait to return!
