Fantastic place amidst the usual burger joints..! We were pleasantly surprised with this bistro especially when we didn’t see a lot of crowd at this place. Most other bars and pubs on this street just serve the usual burgers and pizzas but this place had its own little touch and not to mention a fabulous presentation for everything we ordered!! Right from the breads to lasagna! Oh also, the servers (boys) are pretty cute and welcoming too :)

My SO and I were staying at Hôtel du Vieux just upstairs and decided to give this restaurant a try one dinner. What we love about this bistro is that most other restaurants in Quebec City tend to serve the same few dishes (burger, fries, etc), whereas Bistro hortus offers dishes freshly made from local and organic produce, and it focuses on serving healthy dishes with French twists. Its menu also has quite a few vegan/vegetarian dishes. We ordered organic vegetable stir-fry (pearled barley, curd cheese, vegan black garlic gravy) and vegetarian lasagna made with "ferme manche de pelle," arugula salad, and chemin hatley cheese. Both dishes stood out amongst all the other meals we had in Quebec City. Will definitely return during future visits.
