In addition to being the emblematic animal of Quebec, we were so called "the Caribou" during our visits to France, that it was obvious to borrow the name from this large deer.
French expatriates for several years and very attached to our gourmet roots, it is in Quebec that we decided to drop our bags, and it is a pleasure for us to share with you our love of cooking by combining gourmet seasonal ingredients, our French roots and Quebec influences, in an atmosphere that invites relaxation and conviviality ...

Come share a gourmet and relaxed experience as you discover our signature dishes featuring amazing game meats, refined desserts crafted by our talented pastry chef, or our festive brunches. A menu that evolves with each season, highlighting seasonal and local ingredients, to be enjoyed in our traditional setting or outdoors on our beautiful, sunny landscaped terrace.
Caribou Gourmand consistently delivers a warm, convivial dining experience where seasonal, terroir-inspired dishes and generous portions shine; guests commend thoughtful flavors, approachable prices, and brunch and dinner menus that balance creativity with quality and local ingredients.

Nous avons été très bien reçu au Caribou Gourmand! Le service était rapide, professionnel & convivial. Le menu offre des choix surprenant pour les plus aventureux ainsi que des choix plus "mainstream" mais tout aussi délicieux. C'était vraiment une belle expérience que je recommende fortement pour ceux qui veulent manger des excellents plats du terroir en bonne compagnie.
Le restaurant Caribou Gourmand est une vraie découverte! L'atmosphère chaleureuse & conviviale vous fait sentir comme chez vous. Les plats traditionnels sont savoureux, avec des portions généreuses. Mention spéciale pour la poutine, un délice. Un endroit à ne pas manquer pour une expérience culinaire authentique!

Nous avions réservé pour souligner un anniversaire. Tout mais tout était wow !!! Le service des plus accueillant & des sourires du début à la fin. Chacune des assiettes a été grandement appréciée. Je recommande 1000 fois. Merci !
Merci à Cynthia, Camille & le Chef pour ce repas incroyable ! Aucune fausse note. On recommande l'Amertume & la côte de Boeuf 🥰. Une adresse à ne pas manquer.
Nous avons pris le brunch lors du dernier weekend où le restaurant proposait un menu "cabane à sucre". C'était excellent ! Le personnel est très sympa. A recommander chaudement
