Description: Comme un repas se doit d'etre une experience inoubliable a tous les points de vue, les deux proprietaires du Saint-Amour M. Jacques Fortier et le Chef Jean-Luc Boulay ont deploye depuis 1978 leurs energies afin de reunir une equipe passionnee et attentionnee, de la cuisine a la salle a manger. Le Saint Amour se veut figure de proue dans le rayonnement de la gastronomie quebecoise. Alliant tradition et innovation, Jean-Luc Boulay et son chef Benoit La rochelle misent sur les plus recentes techniques pour rendre hommage aux fines denrees de notre Terroir. Au fil des ans, notre table est devenue un endroit raffine et chaleureux ou le qualificatif de distinctive ne s'arrete pas a la cuisine, mais s'etend jusqu'a l'ambiance et au confort des lieux

We were invited to this restaurant by friends from Quebec City who joined us for lunch. My travel companion is also a native of QQ and holds this restaurant in high regard, though she had not been for several year. We have been to QC many times and never found the opportunity to try Le Saint-Amour but having had my... More

We found this restaurant through yelp and couldn't be happier. The outside facade belies the atmosphere of the interior. The main dining room has a courtyard feel with a high half vaulted glass ceiling. Our waiter made the experience. His English was flawless as our french ne pas. The food courses were done to perfection (lamb and sweet bread). Of... More

After spending a week in New York City and 3 days in Montreal we arrived in Quebec City for 3 days. While most meals on our vacation were in the better than average category I have to say that our dinner at Le Saint-Amour was the best we have ever had -- anywhere. Not only was the food a visual...

Wow, glad we didn't listen to a couple of the reviews below as this restaurant was outstanding. Our third trip to Old Quebec and this restaurant tops them all. My husband travels all over the world and felt the culinary experience was amazing as well. The decor of the restaurant is very nice and the Atrium makes it even better.... More

We came here for the Foie Gras experience. It was an experience. We ordered all 3 of them. The seared one was amazing and the 5 ways was very good too. I can't remember the other one. The lamb was one of the best I have had. The fish was delicious too - appetizer and entrée. Dessert was just okay.... More

We decided to celebrate our 11th Anniversary on a splashy meal, so we chose the Saint-Amour, having read fantastic reviews. We ordered a la carte, and went on a Sunday, then thought both moves were a mistake. The service was fine enough, it was the food that underwhelmed entirely. Finess was very much lacking in our plates: the soups were... More

This is not a restaurant, it is a Rococco palace with delicious food you feel you do not deserve to taste! Try the FOIE GRAS! Delicious!

We went here on the recommendation of our hotel concierge, who told us the chef is Quebec City's top chef. He was right. This was without a doubt the best dining experience we have ever had. Ever. And we're foodies. We had the smaller of the two tasting menus with wine parings. The food was absolutely exquisite. Fabulous flavours simply... More
