Cafe Bistro Il Momento

Open until 3 am

(24)

Pont Viau, Laval-des-Rapides

Café Italian Sandwiches Pizza

Review Summary

Cafe Bistro Il Momento is described as not a cafe bistro but more of an Italian resto bar with a Quebecois traditional vibe. Reviewers note there is no drink menu, no cocktails, only basic sangria pitchers for multiple people, and croissants that seem industrial. On the food side, the Prosciutto and bocconcini entry is described not as a fresh skewer but as a panini, and the classic poutine comes with grated cheese rather than cheese curds. Positive points include a fairly chill ambiance, good portions, and a friendly server who is often hard to track down. Cash only is noted, and images on the menu are said to be AI generated. Espresso is praised as amazing and possibly the best in town, and the pizza is also described as nice. Overall, Il Momento is called a hidden gem and a very pleasant place to spend time, with a friendly atmosphere that endures.View restaurant profile

Thai Express

Open until 3 am

Laval-des-Rapides

Thai Asian

Review Summary

Thai Express reviews show a mix of praise and critique. Some dishes seem inconsistent with too much rice and not enough meat or sauce, and holy basil can include onion chunks with minimal basil and minced protein; flavour sometimes comes up as lacking and utensils or branded containers may be missing. On the plus side, the interior is surprisingly spacious with two levels, and a drive through is available though it can be risky during construction. Service is described as clean and fast, with friendly cashiers, new administration and improved overall service; several reviewers praise the pad Thai with fried egg as delicious and a personal favorite. Multilingual praise appears for the cooks and the quick, courteous service, and even when the auto order panel is down, orders can be placed at the window; the drive through remains a positive option. Overall, Thai Express is seen as offering good tasting food and a welcoming vibe, with plans to return mentioned by many.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Overall, Wings Buffalo is described as a nice place with friendly staff and amazing food, a good option when cravings hit; wings are large and generous, filling the box, but some reviews mention oiliness and oil that hasn't been changed for a while, and prices are not the cheapest.View restaurant profile

Quesada Burritos & Tacos

Open until 5 am

(249)

Laval-des-Rapides

Mexican Tacos

Mentioned in: Taco Restaurants in Québec City: A Local Guide

Review Summary

Reviews of Quesada Burritos & Tacos describe flavorful burritos, bowls, and nachos made with fresh ingredients, along with quick service and friendly staff and good value for late hours. Many diners praise the overall taste and variety, noting popular items and a lively atmosphere. Some experiences, however, include issues such as orders with the wrong meat (pork instead of chicken or beef), burritos that fall apart or arrive cold, and undercooked rice, plus occasional hygiene concerns. A few guests mention inconsistency in quality with off days affecting service and prep, while others highlight generous portions and attentive service when things go right. Despite these flaws, customers generally feel drawn back by the flavors and affordability, with compliments to the staff in some visits and a sense that it remains a reliable option for a satisfying meal.View restaurant profile
