10Best Continental
Café de la Terrasse
(Restaurants - Continental)
1, rue des Carrieres Fairmont le Château Frontenac, Québec  G1R 4P5 • 418-692-3861
Distance: ~0 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. You'll not only enjoy a tasty treat at Café de la Terrace, but you'll also delight in a beautiful view of the Saint-Lawrence while you dine. The lunch buffet, very reasonably priced, features the culinary magic of Chef Jean Soulard, whose dishes are inspired by traditional Québec favorites. The buffet is available until 2:30 and is a super idea if you've been traveling all day.

Distance: ~14 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Close enough to kiss the Château Frontenac, this popular restaurant is consistently recommended by locals for simple, authentic Italian dishes with a touch of French influence. Main courses include steak, local game, fresh seafood and veal.

Le Continental
(Restaurants - Continental)
26, rue St-Louis, Québec  G1R 3Y9 • 418-694-9995
Distance: ~172 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Reminiscent of an Uptown New York restaurant in the '50s, Le Continental offers a certain air of sophistication, from tuxedoed waiters preparing last minute tableside touches to make your evening unforgettable to the innovative menu. A flambé here, cherries jubilee there – it all adds up to elegant dining in its purest sense. Most of the menu is Continental, including duck a l'orange, sweetbreads or châteaubriand for two, seasoned and seared to perfection.

Crêperie le Petit Château
(Restaurants - Continental)
5, rue St-Louis, Québec  G1R 3Y8 • 418-694-1616
Distance: ~189 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. In the shadow of the Château Frontenac, Crêperie le Petit Château serves light, airy crêpes all day long. However, breakfast is a special time, to be sure. Since a crêpe is really a thin pancake, try any of the 58 varieties available for breakfast – stuffed with sausage, ham or bacon. And don't forget the maple syrup! In the warmer months a patio area is open, and the Petit Château often features live music.

Toast!
(Restaurants - Continental)
17, rue Sault-au-Matelot Le Priori Hotel, Québec  G1K 3Y7 • 418-692-1334
Distance: ~207 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. The stylish restaurant, found in the equally stylish Le Priori Hotel, became a hit as soon as it opened its retro-sleek doors. The chef combines the best local produce in traditional Continental preparations with truly amazing results. The menu is unusual and innovative, but there's enough familiarity to appeal to a good cross section of diners. Begin with foie gras pressed with apples and port, or try the Italian-style red tuna sashimi. Follow with a main course of pan-fried veal sweetbreads, or Alberta rack of lamb with a mustard and citrus crust. Desserts are inventive: try the "spice bread reconstruction" with petite scoops of three ice creams – nutmeg, cinnamon and clove, and anise.

Le Cochon Dingue
(Restaurants - Continental)
46, bd Champlain, Québec  G1K 4H7 • 418-692-2013
Distance: ~237 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. This refreshing, French-style eatery is a favorite among neighborhood business-types and shop-owners, who appreciate the casual atmosphere, friendly service and one of the most attractive patio areas in Québec City. The restaurant's interior, which boasts the quintessential Québec stonework and several intimate café-style tables, is warm and inviting, though a tad dim. Savor the lunch delights, including sun-dried tomato pizzas, baguettes, steaks and fries and their famous mussels trio. Le Cochon Dingue also serves a pretty mean breakfast.

La Caravelle
(Restaurants - Continental)
68 ½, rue St-Louis Auberge La Caravelle, Québec  G1R 3Z3 • 418-694-9022 • 800-267-0656
Distance: ~238 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. One step inside this contemporary restaurant and you'll know immediately that you've found a special place. The split-level dining area's soft recessed lighting, modern artwork, sleek bar area and minimalist décor add a pleasing contrast to its original stone walls, fireplaces and intimate café-style tables. In short, the restaurant offers a well-lit, comfortable setting that's ideal for breaking bread with clients. Seafood is the specialty, and you'd be hard-pressed to find better offerings of seafood paella, Andalusian cod fillet, frog legs with garlic sauce, lobster thermidor or Mediterranean bouillabaisse. Those wanting to go another route might consider stuffed rabbit with porto sauce, veal scallopine Milanese or cannelloni au gratin.

Chez Temporel
(Restaurants - Continental)
25, rue Couillard, Québec  G1R 3T4 • 418-694-1813
Distance: ~328 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. If you see a table, you'd better snag it quickly! This popular hangout attracts locals and students alike. If you need to escape the bustle of life, you can come here bright and early and sip café au lait while munching flaky croissants smothered in sweet jam. You can also delve into a wonderfully hearty breakfast of cheese, quiche or pastries.

Le Buffet de l'Antiquaire
(Restaurants - Continental)
95, rue St-Paul, Québec  G1K 3V8 • 418-692-2661
Distance: ~342 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Need a break from Rue Saint-Paul's famous (and sometimes daunting!) Antique Row? This local favorite is a must, then! Not much in the way of novelty décor or sophistication – you can't get more plain than bare red-brick walls – but the restaurant features homestyle cooking that more than makes up for the lack of flash. Ideal for breakfast, lunch or dinner, the menu features Québecois cooking at its finest.

L'Omelette
(Restaurants - Continental)
66, rue St-Louis, Québec  G1R 3Z3 • 418-694-9626
Distance: ~351 m *
        Description: VIEUX QUEBEC. Some days, you just need to have breakfast no matter what time it is. L'Omelette is there for you. Located just a stone's throw from the Château Frontenac, this breakfast favorite offers a variety of options, from the popular Espagnole (tomatoes, green peppers and onions) to Provençal (tomatoes, garlic and parsley) omelettes. If you're still trying to recover from the night before, go for the ridiculously filling La Québecois combo – bacon, sausage or ham, tourtière, fried potatoes, toast, two eggs, juice and coffee – you'll never be the same again! A few non-breakfast options are available as well, including seafood, steaks, burgers, sandwiches and even pizza.
