Casa Calzone - Quebec City, Quebec

After a long day at the Falls, we were looking for somewhere good to eat nearby. Casa Calzone came up as a top rated restaurant nearby and all the positive reviews swayed me to stopping here! Their terrace looked like the perfect place to end a long day, especially with ... the nice weather. As soon as we walked in around 5:20pm, the staff greeted us, then asked if we had a reservation. We did not, but the restaurant was practically empty and they had, without exaggeration, at least a dozen tables free. The staff member then recommended that, in the future, we should be sure to make a reservation because the dining room tends to fill up quickly. But, as I said, the restaurant was practically empty. There was one party of 8 or so that was seated on the terrace and then another small group inside the restaurant, and that's it. Tons of empty tables. By some miracle, my party of two was able to be seated. We opted to sit on the terrace and were quickly given menus and water. Prior to arriving at the restaurant, we had thoroughly reviewed their menu so we already knew exactly what we wanted to eat, but then I was nearly swayed by their Carbonara, which sounded delicious! I told the waiter that I was in between two choices and he gave me his thoughts on both options, that the Carbonara was more creamy and the Hipster had a great balance of sweet and salty. Upon his words, I opted for their Hipster Calzone and my partner got the Taco Calzone, so we could both try dishes that they were named after--a Calzone. As we were waiting, they also brought out an amuse-bouche of bruschetta, which was a nice surprise. From that, it took less than 15 minutes to receive our Calzones, which looked absolutely gorgeous. The Hipster had a pile of caramelized onions on top of it and a perfectly browned crust. The Taco Calzone had a dollop of sour cream and a dollop of salsa, and then the waiter came over with a syringe of hot sauce, recommending that the Taco is best served with hot sauce injected inside. What an experience! My partner said the Taco Calzone was very good, packed with flavours. When I tried a bite, I found it heavy, but delicious. The Hipster Calzone was good, but the cheese flavours overpowered everything, in my opinion. I will say, the dough was the best part for me, crispy and soft, though I don't think there was any bacon in my Calzone. With my meal, I also had a glass of wine, the Artisan, which I do not recommend, unless you like dry whites. Overall, my experience at this restaurant was good. The staff were very attentive, providing a fan to cool down the terrace, and routinely checking in on all their clientele. The food also came out swiftly and deliciously. I am excited to go back here and try some of their other foods--with a reservation this time! Read more

Had the Calzone Tacos and it was sublime. Tasty food, great service and nice vibe.

Stopped through town during our trip and found this absolute gem! Truly the best meal experience of this whole trip. Fantastic experience across the board. Immediately upon entering, you are greeted with a fresh, joyous atmosphere filled with eclectic wall art/lighting. Got seated in the covered semi outdoor area ... and was very comfortable. The super kind staff brought a blanket anyways just in case, which was a thoughtful touch. Drinks were perfect, calozone was incredible.... the best I have had- EVER! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Ps the prices were very reasonable for the amount and quality of food. Seriously, don't miss out on this one. Read more

Amazing Calzone restaurant with amazing chefs. Taco Calzone with injection of special hot sauce and vegetarian calzone and Quebec special maple syrup cake dessert. Very cozy atmosphere with nice music.

First time in Quebec City and came here with my group of friends. The Calzones were great and flavourful. Had too many overly sweet Tiramisu but the Tiramisu here was light and delicate and wasn’t too sweet which was great. The food was made even better with the welcoming service ... of the staff members who made our dining experience a truly pleasant one. Keep up the good service and quality food! Would definitely visit again if we’re back in Quebec next time :) Read more
