Whether enjoying the charming terrace in the summer or the cozy interior, diners appreciate the restaurant’s commitment to quality and the passionate, collaborative spirit of the kitchen and service teams.

Expérience hors pair. Nous y sommes allés il ya 3 semaines & nous avons tout aimé du repas principal, du service & du lieu. On apprécie l'utilisation de produits frais & locaux. Le personnel est sympathique & prend soin de bien nous présenter les plats. Nous avons eu la chance d'avoir le crabe des neiges en entrée, succulent. L'entrée de champignons était exquise également. Le morue & l'agneau en plat principal nous ont comblés. Seule petite déception avec le dessert qui se démarquait moins & l'un de nous avait une boule de crème glacée dure comme du ciment. Ah oui, leur pain est vraiment excellent & offert à volonté!!

Restaurant Candide offers a welcoming & intimate setting & it is clear that every detail is accounted for (down to luxurious candles burning throughout the restaurant). The staff was friendly & professional, balancing attentiveness while giving us space to enjoy our night seamlessly. The food was refreshing, thoughtful & surprising. I appreciate a slow deliberate meal, never feeling rushed nor forgotten. The smoked oysters were delightful & the sea bass was complimented perfectly with the mushrooms & fennel.

C'est difficile de trouver des problèmes chez Candide, l'expérience est complete, recherchée & de la plus grande qualité, les valeurs du chef sont très fortes & il vous les offre gracieusement. Le personnel est formé & informé à la perfection, tout le service est d'une fluidité impeccable. Les plats & vins en majorité locaux, si importés d'une qualité irréprochable & à chaque produit on nous raconte son histoire. Je suis extrêmement impressionnée par les diverses conserves faites maison & apprêtées avec soin & en accord avec les repas.

Food is great. Honey at the end was such a special touch. The service is amazing: friendly, kind, fast between courses, but you don't feel rushed at all. Would definitely recommend Candide for a great night out with really delicious food.

Really really good. A little hard to find but very interesting food & so good. The parsnip in tomato sauce appetizer was incredible. So was the arctic char. But the really killer part was the honey as the final, final course. Paired with a honey wine. Worth the price of admission itself. Highly recommended. Would absolutely go back.

Attentive staff, innovative tasting menu, farm to table creations using local ingredients, incredible flavours. Note - Restaurant is difficult to find.....they did say it's at the back of the church. Take the regular roads & don't take the alleyways.
