A Guide to Canada's Gaspé Peninsula

"It was nearly as memorable a sight as the mountain of shellfish at La Maison du Pêcheur, a waterfront restaurant that also featured flowers in a place that could be seen as even more unlikely than Elsie Reford’s gardens: my cocktail." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Absolutely delicious! We sat at the bar and the bartenders were super nice. A solid 5 stars for the food. Only recommendation would be to make a reservation!

Excellent seafood at extremely reasonable prices. Atmosphere was great - busy and tightly packed but a wonderful ambiance. Service was great, we made a mistake booking for 4 but showing up 5 people - they were great about it and managed to fit us in despite being fully booked. Food and cocktails were spot on, such high quality. Book in advance since they seem to be booked fully every night.

It’s a OK restaurant, been overrated by people on social. Plus the long queue every day, let you have high expectations. The lobster itself was big and high quality but over cooked so it’s a bit hard. Also did every table get cookie appetizers? If yes, we didn’t receive. The fish was fresh, and the source was special and tasty. Service was good.

This restaurant was recommended by a few people, therefore we had very high expectations and I have to say that the food surpassed any expectation we had. I'm not a fan of seafood but the salmon tartar was amazing, and the filet mignon melted in your mouth. It was absolutely amazing, even the vegetables and the lobster risotto was fantastic. Staff is also very quick and friendly. What an amazing experience!!!

Food is well worth the lines (even if you've a reservation - which is a must) and has maintained its quality over the years. Recommend requesting a table with a view to make your meal that much more enjoyable. We had their Haddock and salmon fillet as mains and the fish cake accras and chef's special beet root patte as appetizers. Everything was delicious and our server was very attentive and friendly. Worth the price.

This is probably one of the best restaurant with its service, location, scenery and seafood in the region. I was disappointed by the food in the region which were very overpriced, small portion and taste being bad. Yet this restaurant is the exception, exceptionally good. The place was busy, we are walk in customer at the time it opens for the day. Reserved tables already have a line up, and the walk in customers also lined up. Eventually, we couldn't get a table, but was arranged with a reservation 1 hour later. The town has lot of gift shops which the time flew and we got in before we got hungry. The service was awesome and attentive. Very friendly staffs and always being helpful. We ordered appetizers and our main meals. We were excited as the reviews and photos all looked great. The fish soup was full of fresh seafood ingredients, a bit too salty and it reminded me of some Asian styled fish soup. But overall not too bad a way to try the local seafood and fishes. The octopus and hummus was not a supreme appetizer as well. As I compared to the octopus I had in Portugal which cooked tender and tasty. Even compared to the octopus I used to get from Costco was more tender as well. However, the mix of hummus to the dish was good, and the hummus was really good! What shine was the main dishes. The lobster was fresh and the lobster risotto was tasty. I wished there were more risotto. The seafood pasta however outshine everything. The pasta cooked Al dente, the sauce was full of seafood flavor and mixed perfectly together. The tiramisu as a finish was too sweet and a bit soggy. But overall a very good experience and probably the best seafood restaurant in the region considering the ingredients, taste, service, restaurant ambiance and price.

Location: In the heart of Percé - right by the boardwalk. If you're staying in the area then odds are you're within walking distance. The place: It's quite spacious with ample seating indoors and a large veranda/terrace. The vibe is cozy and casual. The goods: I started with the most delicious cocktail (L'or Percéene) and went with the pan-seared scallops, whisky, raisins and walnuts, served with lobster risotto and vegetables. It was delicious - the scallops were seared to perfection and the dish was flavourful on all fronts. My mom had the fish of the day (rainbow trout) and loved it. We enjoyed dinner so much that we went back the next evening. Obviously, I couldn't pass up the cocktail, but this time, I decided to try the lobster meat with maple svrup and seaweed, served with risotto and vegetables. The dish was excellent. My mom, on the other hand, was less impressed with the seafood au gratin, which largely consisted of mashed potatoes vs seafood. It was a bit of a disappointment. I also don't think the side salad should be an extra charge. We also tried the lime pie, and it was awesome. Service: On our first night, it was excellent - very attentive wait staff. On the 2nd night, it was still pretty good, though things seemed to be more hectic, Price point: On the spendy side, but absolutely worth it. Check it!

Firstly, this restaurant is the draw of the town. Very busy main street location with limited parking in front of restaurant. Second, The wait at the door can be long even with a reservation (witch is essential). Everyone lines up, with or without a reservation. Once inside, the service can be spotty if they are busy (and they usually are). The variety of drinks is interesting and the menu if somewhat limited (if we remove the large pizza choices) is intriguing but definitely on the expensive side. Not sure that we will be back, but if you fancy seafood and large hungry crowds by all means go.

Outstanding fresh seafood. Great views. Best location in gaspe. Free wifi. This place is well known as the best restaurant in perce. The seafood is so fresh and delicious. It was my best meal in the entire gaspe region. The cod tongue with sea urchin foam was a perfect greasy appetizer after a long hike. The lobster was so fresh, it tasted like the sea. The cheesecake was phenomenal. The only downside was the service. My server basically plopped the food on my table but never refilled my water, or removed my plates in a timely manner. It also took too long in between courses and forever to get her attention to actually order. I ordered over $100 worth of food for 1 person and she hardly deserved $5 for the 1 minute she spent in total throwing my plate on the table before running away. It was worse service than a typical asian restaurant in s big city. Luckily free wifi helped with this issue. I'll be back for the food if I ever come back to the gaspe. But make sure you have lots of time to eat!

If you're touring around town, plan to make this your lunch or dinner stop. This is the absolute best place to eat and you will not regret it! Get there early for lunch for the best seats in the glass house area with views of the sea. Tables are limited so there and no large groups accommodated for that seating. You can see the Percé rock from your seat in this section. You can get the obvious, fish and chips which comes in a little boat dish (cute!), but Pizza Gaspésienne is well worth a try. The Fisherman's soup was beyond amazing but I don't think there's anything on the menu you won't like. Service was friendly and food came out quick. While this place does look huge, it fills up really fast so you may need a reservation for supper. Access is from the side and the patio is open depending on the weather. Parking is off the main road but you can't get into the restaurant there; employee entrance only. If you like seafood, this is the only place you need to go to!

We are doing a road trip in the Gaspesie peninsula and by far this was our best meal! Everything was top notch! The view is unbeatable , the lovely decor, nice professional service and the food. Very yummy and fresh. Even the kids meals cake nicely plated and presented! We also tried desserts and was great... I was so happy I made reservations 2 weeks ahead it's definitely a spot not to be missed when visiting Perce

We made reservations two days in advance, at 7pm. When We entered we saw other people waiting for table. We sit at the foot of the stairs and beside the service stand. It was not a comfortable table. We ordered seafood pizza and the trident (three kind of seafood in one plate). The waitress suggested a fries with the pizza. However, we didn't get it but still got charged. Pizza was good but we couldn't finish it. Sharing is a good idea for ladies. My plate had risotto, salmon, scallops and lobster claws. Very good of timing to cook. The complimentary appetizer crackers were also nice with fish butter.

What a find. We noticed this place as we drove to our hotel. Everything about the place was 5 stars. Service,deco,food and quality. Good thing is this place is not near home or I would be there every night. Soup,fish and dessert was just awesome. And even though Covid was around this place was packed.

Good food, breathtaking view of the rock ( make sure you sit on the terrace), friendly staff. I have the snail's entrée which counts as a full dish I say. This was the first time I had some and I enjoyed it! Atlantic Cod fish is a species peculiar to this coast and Percé is known to be the hot spot for it. Then I have the cod fish fillet. A very different texture indeed. The portion is too big and I shared mine with my wife. The restaurant is clean, well decorated and cozy. They also have very clean restrooms in case you need one!

Amazing food. Must try if you're in the area. The service was excellent. The scallops were to die for. I had the fisherman's soup with rouille croutons and cheese as an entree. Loved it.

This might be the best fish restaurant I have ever been to in my life!!! Totally understand why it's booked up weeks in advance. Came to celebrate a birthday and it was fantastic - quick and courteous service, delicious food and super well priced for what you get. The shared appetizer platter was outstandingly good, the Trident was fantastic and the grilled salmon was super yummy. Zero complaints except for the fact that it wasn't really properly distanced during COVID...but not too bad either. Definitely reserve in advance and come here!

This is a must visit if you're in town. Definitely, the best meal I've had in a while. Their seafood chowder is the best one I've tried in my entire life. Everything was perfect, the service, the atmosphere, the ambiance and the food. The prices are more than okay if you compare it to seafood restaurants in Montreal. I would recommend to book in advance when it's a long weekend or busy season, but you should be okay finding a table on other days.

Dinner on a Friday night in this restaurant was a head-banging nightmare. Right off the mark I must say the food was beautifully prepared & presented and also delicious. I had halibut w lemon & capers. Hubs had whiskey seared scallops. Both were delectable. He also had the seafood chowder that was very good. I had ordered a green salad as well, but it never showed up. The bread with the meal was served fresh & warm with an herbed butter which was soft enough to spread on the bread w/o tearing it to pieces (ok, it's the little things). Our problem was the service. Our server was very friendly and quick to help us with our poor French by being an above average English speaker & being very gracious about it. Then the table next to us vacated & they seated a table of 10 next to ours. Four adults & SIX children under 7. That occurred as the Hubs was having his soup & I was waiting for my errant salad. It was also effectively the end of any attention from our server. While I certainly understand that the seating arrangement was not in the purview of the waitstaff, it only increased our displeasure. They were not even all seated before they had to rearrange the tables, one child was running from one end of the table to the other, colliding with chairs & tables all the way. Another was squalling about something. Two others were fighting over some imagined slight. Next minute three of them were under the table. Seriously? We paid a premium for this situation? The server made repeated stops at this table and another 2-top next to ours to fill water glasses, bring extra plates, serve wine, deliver food & check on the clients while we languished in the corner hemmed in by the horde of feral children. Just the normal amount of attention from our server would have gone a long way toward giving us some reason to feel at least the tiniest bit positive about this completely horrific situation created by a foursome of rude, thoughtless, ego-centric, oblivious, asshole adults who paid zero attention to the effect the out of control actions of their offspring were having on other diners. We had to remind the server of requests we had made more than once and at the end of our meal sat staring at empty plates so long it was ludicrous. When our server came to the table to ask if we wanted dessert, we had to remind her that the Hubs had ordered the Table d'Hote which included dessert her response was "Oh, yes. I'll get the menu." Then waited 10-15 minutes for the dessert menu to arrive, waited another 7 or 8 minutes for her to come back to take his order and yet another 10-15 for the dessert (which we ordered to-go in order to escape as quickly as we were able) to arrive. As I said earlier, each of these waiting periods was made interminable by the fact that the server was at the other tables seeing to niceties that should have waited a minute while she saw to our essentials. She frequently looked at us, saw we had put the menu down & were ready to order, but found it more pressing to fill glasses at the large table & clear plates from the other 2-top while we festered. Again, just the normal amount of attention would have spread oil on the choppy waters of our displeasure. A simple smile indicating she could see we were tired of the children bumping our chairs to get us to move out of their way and slapping their grubby little paws (which so recently had been on the floor under the table) on our table. Just a modicum of sympatico support rather than ho-hum disregard. Yes, I'm mad!

Tourist trap run! Totally tasteless food! The staff is friendly, the place is attractive and perfectly located to be successful all it needs is a chief. I had overpriced Fish & Chips think at this price they had to be at least fresh. What I got was basically a couple of large totally tasteless fish sticks. My wife had the mussels which were at least passable but certainly not exceptional. The place is totally working off it's Geographic position for success.

This place, surely, deserves a 5 star. The service was good, she even recommended us not to order too much after 1 big seafood platter. The cream chowder melted in my mouth with 80% of that made of shrimps/clams. And Grilled scallops were incredible. I would come back to Perce just for this.

We loved this restaurant so much, my friend say as he had the best meal he's ever had! We were pleasantly surprised by the high quality service, atmosphere and food. We shared a seafood platter which hat lobster, salmon, scallops, mussels, risotto, vegetables and more. Then we topped off the meal with the most amazing cheesecake...made by pastry chef who has been there for over 33 years. They have a beautiful view, pizza oven and local beer with good selection of wine. We highly recommend this restaurant and suggest making reservations during busy season/times.

Friendly staff. Amazing fish. You have to try the chowder. I had an amazing cod with lobster risotto. My girlfriend had a delicious halibut. We wish we had more stomach space to try the dessert

Awesome place to have lunch. The fishing boat decor and views are great! Awesome service. We had the lobster and salmon,, both delicious.

The server was very friendly and despite his poor English we had a memorable experience. The chowder soup was lovely and the lobster was great. It is a busy restaurant but we did not have a problem to get a table for two at 6:30 pm

This was definitely our worst experience on our Gaspesian tour. The staff was either rude or clueless (or both) and the chef never even learned to cook! I order a grilled fish and made a comment to the waiter when the fish I was given was fried (grossly at that with disgusting batter). The waiter came back from the kitchen saying that the chef said that's how it's cooked and it's panned! First, the menu says grilled not panned. Second, the fish was neither grilled nor panned it was fried! I know it's Percé thus touristy thus less care can be given but hey thinking your customers are idiots and you can just serve them anything...?!

Good food in a beautiful room. Percé is a bit of a desert for those who need gluten-free, but this place understands allergies and, despite some confusion ordering in English, we felt safe taking our son with celiac there.

Amazing view, for sure. Ate dinner watching the sun setting over the rock. The baked goat cheese paired with blueberries was nice. The children's spaghetti was really good. The fish was very nice. Perhaps, avoid the pasta. We didn't love the mushroom pasta.

Had three meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner, Québécois breakfast, salmon pizza, and cod fillet, respectively. All three meals were very delicious and served professionally and promptly in a beautiful setting overlooking the ocean. A must visit when you come to this town. My wife was equally happy and impressed.

Yelp
Was looking for a seafood experience and they did not disappoint. The Trident provided an excellent overall sampling of the more popular menu items. It was one of the options on the Table D'Hote menu; a good value. As well, the service was top notch, in both French and English. Highly recommended.
