The most underrated brunch spot I have ever been to in Quebec. To start off the views you have of the lake are absolutely stunning, it was very peaceful & relaxing. The French toast was a very original dish & it was extremely delicious. They have some sort of crumble on top, the dish had a wonderful texture & the apples really bring it together with that delicious caramel drizzle on top.

Their wine menu in the evening was very well priced & well crafted, I opted for a glass of rosé & was highly impressed.

As for the views breakfast was amazing as you have clear skies & the weather isn't too hot, as for the evening, the sun lowers & you get amazing views of the lake with the sun reflecting. Once the sunset hits, the views are incredible!

Lovely setting excellent food & gorgeous lake view & sunset. We had the sweetest waitress. Loved the Les Moines en Provence cocktail. I had the octopus & husband had the beef. Both were delicious & plentiful. The Melilot Flower crème brûlée was a perfect light dessert to end the evening.

This is probably the best restaurant in walking distance to the village. The highlight is the high quality ingredients & a beautiful view of the lake.

While everything was very good, the surprise standout was the Caesars salad, which had chunks of hot. & thick bacon pieces. Definitely worth ordering

Amazing experience. One of the best restaurants in the Tremblant area & only seconds from the village. We sat on the patio & the views of the lake were breathtaking around sunset. The service was impecable & the ambiance matched. Oh, & the food? One of the best-tasting meals I've had in years with a wine list that goes on for miles to pair everything nicely. The confit white onion with fermented wheat risotto was an absolute flavour explosion!

We had brunch with beautiful views of the lake & absolutely loved it. The service was lovely & the food felt very homemade. We tried the breakfast bagel & the classic breakfast with eggs & sausage-everything was delicious, & the potatoes & sausage weren't greasy at all. Highly recommend!

La Quintessence, the flagship restaurant of the namesake Quintessence Hotel in Mont-Tremblant, offers a dining experience as luxurious as the hotel it resides in. Stepping into the restaurant feels like entering an elegant alpine retreat, where rustic charm meets sophisticated design. The ambiance is warm & inviting, with the comforting crackle of a fire in the stone hearth & the soft glow of wooden beams overhead. Leather armchairs beckon diners to settle in, while the panoramic view of Lac Tremblant serves as a serene backdrop, grounding the space in the breathtaking natural beauty of the region. Service at La Quintessence is executed with style & grace, a reflection of the restaurant's elevated standards. The staff are attentive without being intrusive, adding to the refined atmosphere without losing the welcoming, cozy chalet feel. The menu leans into the local terroir, showcasing both finesse & creativity. To start, we indulged in oysters & microgreen salads, both exquisitely fresh & fully organic-a light prelude to the more robust courses to follow. The highlight of the evening was the venison, a beautifully executed dish that married the natural earthiness of the game with a playful assortment of sides. Wild mushrooms & marinated onions added layers of texture & depth, each bite offering something new to discover. The attention to detail & flavor was impeccable, a testament to the chef's skill in balancing elegance & heartiness. As with any dining experience of this caliber, the price does reflect the overall luxury of the establishment. However, for those seeking a peaceful & intimate evening in Mont-Tremblant, with food as elevated as the setting, La Quintessence offers an exceptional choice. The combination of high-quality service, stunning surroundings, & well-executed dishes makes this a destination worth savoring.
