Great atmosphere & service but the food is not as it used to be 2-3 years ago. Out of four courses, two were subpar. Especially the fish course (arctic char-on the photo) with sweet sauce & carrots. Somehow the dish was too salty & too sweet at the same time. It was bad, with weird flavor. The second course was some sort of soup with leeks & mussels. It was sour & you couldn't chew anything on the plate. The first course, the oyster & the dessert were solid, with great flavor. This is why I used to love Candide-simple, but sophisticated & tasteful. Unfortunately I don't think we will be coming back when half of the dishes are a miss. Also a mocktail was not really a mocktail but an apple juice.

Incredible food, staff & atmosphere. Perfect for a date night or special occasion. The set menu changes monthly with local seasonal ingredients for innovative dishes.

Delicious & creative food. Great service. Unique wines. Dishes featured lots of unseasonable vegetables & fresh herbs.

A Charming Spot with Potential! This quaint restaurant, tucked behind an old church (now a community center), offers a unique dining experience with a focus on quality ingredients, thoughtful cuisine, excellent service, & a warm, inviting atmosphere. I reserved a bar seat for one, but the staff kindly offered me an available table instead. However, I opted to stay at the bar, enjoying the view of the kitchen. The bar seating includes under-table hooks for bags, a thoughtful touch. The seasonal menu is priced at $85CAD, includes two starters, one main, & one dessert. Add-ons oysters (+4$) & wine pairing (+56$ for four half glasses) are also available. The starters featured a good portion & impressive variety of fresh greens, including Brussels sprouts, shallots, radicchio, & spinach. The quality & freshness of the ingredients were evident & much appreciated. For the main, I had the Guinea Hen with Raspberry sauce. The dish was beautifully executed, the meat was tender & juicy, the skin perfectly crispy, & the flavors were well-balanced. The red wine pairing complemented the raspberry sauce nicely, enhancing the dish's complexity. Unfortunately, the starters were overly salty. When I informed my server, they adjusted the seasoning for my main course, which turned out perfectly. Despite the kitchen tasting each dish before serving, the saltiness accumulates as customers finish their plates, making it difficult to enjoy consecutive dishes. I could hardly enjoy my second starter after finishing the first. Dessert was an interesting combination of cheese & sweet potato, but the unexpected spiciness of the sweet potato was surprising. While I can tolerate spice, the level is certain too intense for many others. The menu or server should have mentioned this detail beforehand. Service was attentive after the initial delay, water wasn't served, & no one approached me for the first ten minutes. Additionally, the restroom door was left open for some time, which detracted slightly from the otherwise cozy ambiance. The location may be tricky to find, it's directly behind the church facade. Overall, while there were minor missteps, the quality ingredients, innovative dishes, & accommodating service made for a pleasant evening. I look forward to returning to explore a different seasonal menu.

Candide is nothing short of a remarkable dining experience. The food is truly exquisite, showcasing creative, seasonal dishes that are as beautiful as they are delicious. Each plate tells a story, blending fresh local ingredients with a thoughtful approach that makes every bite memorable. The service is warm & attentive, enhancing the overall experience. The only drawback for me was the lighting-it's a bit too dim, which slightly detracts from enjoying the visual appeal of the stunning dishes. However, this is a minor inconvenience when weighed against the exceptional quality of the food. If you're looking for a dining experience that's both refined & grounded in local flavors, Candide is a must-visit. Just consider bringing a small light to fully appreciate the artistry on your plate!

This little gem, hidden away at the back of a church, was the best dining experience I've ever had. Impeccable warm service & the most inventive dishes.

Revised for 2024: We ate outside. Staff is as friendly & knowledgeable as in 2019. Local ingredients & dishes as yummy. We ate outside & it was perfect. Still a great evening & well worth the time & expense. In the best of all possible worlds, you get to eat here. I can remember the flavor & texture of each course: a perfect scallop, in cream, with pepper & flowers. Brussels sprouts with apples & mint. Hen of the woods with roasted turnips & radishes. Sea bass with a tomato & edamame sauce. (My companion had a pheasant.) Lemongrass ice cream over crunchy wheat & a not-so-sweet maple cake & a pear compote. & the wine pairing was fabulous. The atmosphere was wonderful, the staff was charming. Just go.

This restaurant is astonishingly good. When I see "prix fixe," my expectations immediately go up, & yet, Candide shattered every one of them. Entering the cozy setting, you are greeted & treated warmly & genuinely. The service is attentive & generally outstanding. But even if it wasn't, this would've been a transcendent experience. I'm a touring musician with a love of food, & as such have been lucky enough to eat at some really great places all over the world. But I can say without hesitation that this was one of the best. Each of the dishes, & the wine that paired with them, were flawless. A perfectly considered balance of texture, flavor, richness, sharpness, & portion. Each dish was one of the most delicious versions of that thing I've ever had. & to cap it all off, the price was reasonable. About $100 US per person for four courses with wine pairings. I would have happily paid a lot more for this meal. If you're still reading, JUST GO!!

I was getting jealous of chef as Ive indulged myself on very wholesome dishes full of fresh ingredients that complemented so well with each other. He could have charged much more for course menu, but I’ve realized that it is an anchor institution to the community & the chef doesn’t care about money cause he’s an OG.
