A small, hidden restaurant behind St-Joseph’s church, Candide offers a menu in constant evolution. A 4 course menu composed of local ingredients is featured for dinner. Meals are synced with a vibrant wine list to enhance your experience.
In the summer, guests can dine on a covered patio bordering a peaceful pedestrian street.
Love and precision, warmth and refinement, but in the end, Candide is an excuse to make people smile.

    Les plats WOW Le seul problème c'est qu'on nous les a expliqués 3 et même 4 fois Cela aurait très bien être 1 fois et réponse aux questions par la suite si nécessaire Mais l'ensemble de l'expérience est tout de même remarquable

    Warm, truly warm authentic, lovely staff. So welcoming. They are passionate about food, and about wine. The food is superb, the fresh bread divine, and the wine is fabulous. Did I mention the service is great?! The ambience is warm and relaxed with natural textures of wood, stone and plants. Lovely.

    We ate at Candide in September. I enjoy bold and creative cuisine, and Candide did not disappoint. It was my first time there, and I will return for sure in the summer to enjoy the patio. I have already recommended this restaurant several times.
