At Alentours, the menu changes every two weeks, ensuring that each visit offers something new and exciting.

The mushroom ravioli, delicately covered in a snow of sheep's milk cheese, is another standout, offering a rich, earthy flavor that dances on the palate.

Simply extraordinary. We ordered the whole menu! From the milk bread with cheese crust butter (!), to the mushroom ravioli covered in a snow of sheep's milk cheese, to the vivid orange carrots bathed in an ethereally light glowing turmeric hollandaise, each bite was more delicious than the last. It was a truly special meal, one I will never forget. I feel incredibly lucky to have been able to dine at Alentours.

I have to say that this restaurant far exceeded my expectations on everything. We saw all Google reviewers gave 5 stars and they absolutely deserve it. Everything is prepared to its perfection and the taste of each of the 5 course meals is perfectly balanced. My son said if Quebec has Michelin Star rating, this should definitely get the Michelin star rating. They change menu every two weeks. Unfortunately we only stay for a few days. We have to come here if we have a chance to come to Quebec City again!

Beautiful and delicious experience! We tried the bar menu and we loved the flexibility since we did not have the entire evening to experience the 5 course set menu. Great service by Alex. We will be back !
