What guests say about L'Innocent

L’Innocent seems to be highly appreciated for the quality of its food, its warm service, and its friendly, original atmosphere. Several reviews also highlight good vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, as well as a pleasant terrace. However, a few customers mention uneven portions, dishes that can sometimes be disappointing, and a fairly cramped space with little privacy.

The L'Innocent burger was excellent. One one the best I've ever had. Riz Saumon was very verry good. The atmosphere bohemian with booths and a large community table. Very French but English friendly. Free parking on the street.

Excellent food in quality and quantity; and you can tell the environment is well designed and considered. Extra credit for opening during the holiday when you struggle to find a good place!

All I can say about food here is wow. It looks very ordinary from outside, but food is really good, service is really good and friendly and we even enjoyed in their art on walls.

Great little spot for well made gastro pub fare. Poutine was excellent and not too heavy. Will be back to try other dishes one day.

My wife and I spent a night in Riviere-du-Loup on our way to and from Maritimes. After discovering this cafe last year, we came back again and again. Great atmosphere, nice, friendly service, great food. Special note about the interior decoration and the art exhibit. It adds to the charm of the place and to the charm of this city.

The food was great, especially the pita shish taouk and salmon salad, and the atmosphere was so interesting. Everywhere you could look in the restaurant there was something to see and think about and talk about. Definitely recommend!

Food was excellent. 5/7 of us had poutine, it was outstanding and the other 2 of us had salmon - it was amazing. Open on Sunday evening. We're anglophones - service was excellent. They helped us and didn't seem to judge. Additionally, we were a large group and a group gave up their table so we could all sit together. This place has a chill vibe, the customers and service staff seem to be the type of people you want around. Please visit this restaurant, it was amazing and I'm sad I can't eat more.

Good food, cosy terasse. Nothing fancy but very tasty. We had the tofu crepe, a real star, with many textures and the lamb crepe. We liked the salt and pepper shakers!
