Reviews
It was my first time on a gastronomic experience restaurant. It was amazing!
The atmosphere is charming, service is very knowledgeable and on point with our needs, food & wines... excellent!
We had the experience menu and it is about 10 courses of small dishes perfectly presented and paired with wines (if you select the wines menu).
Keep in mind this is a gastronomic experience, you come to enjoy the flavors and value the quality of ingredients. Each time they bring a dish, they explain what it is and the origin of the ingredients. Most of the ingredients are from Quebec or Canada. Wines are from around the world. They tasted amazing!
I appreciate they really made an experience and addressed our special requests, also they personalized our places with a welcome note and at the end provided with a souvenir menu.
I really recommend it if you are looking for a memorable experience :)
Very cool experience. Taniere is a true celebration of all Quebec has to offer. It was very cool to hear the history of the ingredients. I did the non alcoholic drink pairing which provided lots of interesting options, but if I returned I would skip the drink pairing. It’s as much about the experience as it is about the food.
This is one of a kind! Wonderful experience, fabulous food, so rich in flavor and texture and amazing service! ❤️❤️❤️ it was a FANTASTIC experience! Amazing from the beginning to the end! I'll certainly come back
Six years ago my wife and I ate at La Central in Peru. We thought the meal was fantastic and it featured all local ingredients from the different elevations in Peru. Last year it received the #1 ranked restaurant distinction in the World. Last night we ate at La Taniere and had the same experience and vibe. In fact, we liked it even better. The local food and exquisite wine pairings matched the service and atmosphere of the beautiful Quebec City. The attention to detail was appreciated and the explanation of each course was amazing. 5 stars ⭐️
Truly spectacular! One of the Top 3 dining experiences I've had in my life (tied with Michelin 2* Noor in Cordoba, Spain and slightly above 3* Akelare in San Sebastian).
Atmosphere, food, wine pairing and service are all world-class and, frankly, unsurpassed. How lucky the people of Quebec City are to have Taniere for special occasion dining.
Start with the atmosphere. One is given a secret pass-code to enter the restaurant which is unmarked on the outside. You're warmly greeted and immediately escorted to the 'cocktail lounge' where you get your first drinks and the amuse buche. It's underground in a 500 year-old stone cave with incredible lighting.
From there, you're taken either to the dining room or, if you were lucky enough to get the reservation, to the 12-seat Chef's Counter which my daughter thought looked a bit like 'Dr Evil's lair' in a pre-dinner photo I shared. Dr Evil should have been so lucky, as the leather chairs are plush and perfectly situated to watch the chef's in action for the next several hours.
Different staff members bring the courses out and describe their provenance and preparation. As much as possible is locally sourced from Quebec and the servers will relay stories of their time on fishing vessels, in the forests, etc. sourcing the ingredients. It's a wonderful and eclectic mix of ingredients. Preparation and presentation is 3* quality.
There are two wine pairing levels and a non-alcoholic pairing option as well. While you can't go 'ala carte' on the food, you can on the beverages - one of my fellow diners described the types of cocktails he likes, and the mixologist brought him 2 or 3 (of varying styles on the theme) throughout the evening. I had the Collection pairing and thought what was picked complemented the food exceptionally well. I also enjoyed the non-alcoholic fruit juices (palette cleansers), cocktails and teas that were in the beverage line-up.
Service is very professional, warm and inviting. Everyone was able to answer the questions asked of the food and beverages. The training and excitement of the staff to be part of Taniere comes through...and diners feel almost like they were given a special pass for dinner at an old friend's home for the evening.
I've read some articles lately suggesting fine dining is dead. That hasn't been my experience in various foodie cities around the world and it certainly wasn't my experience at Taniere where a new, modern fine dining experience is being conceived and perfectly delivered.
Just outstanding...one of the top restaurants in the world!
This was one of the adventurous foodie experience I have come across. Very exciting.
The venue was fantastic, a historic building, a cellar, in the heart of Old Quebec, with access through a yellow door, no signage, just a code, which you receive the day before your reservation.
Inside, we were greeted and sat in the first area, to enjoy pre dinner drinks and appetizers. The presentation was amazing and we enjoyed small plates of daring creations which were such a treat. At this point, we were offered the drink options which were premium wine pairings, the non-premium wine pairing and the non-alcohol drink pairing. We went with the non-premium, which is the only mistake we made, we should have taken the premium pairing as that was a bit of a disappointment for us.
On to the next cellar, the main course, again, super exciting small plates, the tables with drawer and locks to hint on our next dish. So creative, local fish and lobster, sturgeon caviar from New Brunswick, lamb, I don’t want to give away the whole menu but the flavours…I was in my element.
It was one adventure after the next, the dessert served in yet another area in the cellar, a brighter section tastefully decorated with birch trees. We then had a chance to chat with other patrons, who agreed, it was an experience they would never forget.
Since we arrived home, we have told many of our friends about our adventure there, have showed pictures and the menu card.
I had made my reservations months ago, when I made my hotel reservations. After research, Taniere seemed to top the list and I understand why.
This is a must experience while in Quebec City.
My husband and I dined here in September, and it was by far the most fabulous restaurant we have ever experienced. We have traveled worldwide and would fly back to Quebec City to have this experience again! Lengthy tasting menu well worth …
The flavors were out of this world and the wine pairing was fantastic with the tasting menu. The atmosphere was intimate and I enjoyed the experience in such a cool and historic spot. The service was on point and they don’t skimp on the portions either. Perfect place for the extra special occasion.
