La Porte Arrière

Behind a glass façade in Rivière-du-Loup, a trendy, narrow restaurant whose open-kitchen counter gives a few diners a front-row seat. The menu is as concise as a haiku and gives pride of place to local produce, with a standout veal sweetbreads, mushroom and shallot dish, in modern cooking that combines spontaneity, creativity and precision in a festive mood. It is a Recommended restaurant in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide Québec.
