The best restaurants La Malbaie

A friendly café bistro with a retro decor, serving diet menus. Breakfasts are tasty, especially as they are served until 11:30 a.m. on weekdays, and even 12 p.m. on weekends, public holidays and during the summer season. In addition to a wide choice of breakfasts, the place also offers salads, homemade pastas, pizzas, burgers and a host of other gourmet dishes. Other little extras include a catering service, a boutique selling coffee and local produce, and special events throughout the year.

This magnificent 1901 house offers an unforgettable experience of relaxation, refinement and gastronomy. Chef Truchon's table is a hymn to flavors and local products. Specialties include tartares, foie gras from Ferme Basque, black pudding, Charlevoix lamb, fish and local cheeses. The wine list is the perfect complement to this culinary adventure. Also worth discovering: the cozy accommodations of his inn and his new lounge restaurant and tapas bar next door, L'Île Mystérieuse.

When two chef-owners compete to bring us such fine, upscale cuisine, we can't help but appreciate it. Each has his own stove, and tradition be damned! On the menu: foie gras au torchon and duck breast from Ferme Basque in Saint-Urbain, scallops from the Magdalen Islands, Arctic char filet from Les Éboulements... In short, Quebec on your plate! Your gourmet mission: choose two dishes, regardless of the chef (you won't offend the other, don't worry). One of Charlevoix's finest restaurants.
