We decided to stop by this cute town of Rimouski and while we were researching Narval came up as one of the best restaurants here. It was also recommended by our Airbnb host as a place that uses local ingredients. I was lucky to get a reservation due to some last minute cancellation. At the restaurant, the chef (I believe it was the chef) came over to say that “looks like you were able to get a reservation” bc I had put my name on the waiting list. So do no that if you want to drink alcohol here that it’s Bring Your Own Wine. The staff wasn’t sure if we knew since we weren’t locals and I think the chef offered us beer that he got for us. That was so nice but my husband didn’t want to drink as he wanted to make sure he would be okay to drive and then make sure I’m ok because of my injured foot he declined. But we hope they were not offended. We had really appreciated the gesture! Now on to the food. It was AMAZING and so delicious! The presentation was absolutely beautiful. The flavors were well balanced. The food was very fresh. We even tried the snails — that was interesting :) My husband has eaten snails before but it was my first time. The staff was very friendly :) Definitely recommend!

Frankly, the meal we had at the Narval is part of my palmares of the best meals I had ever had. The fact that you can bring your own wine makes it even better has you can up the wine level without paying another 300$. The service was also excellent, these folks have a sprezzatura which shows they are in control. Will certainly come back!

OMG!!!! Restaurant LE NARVAL in Rimouski!!!! An unforgettable Birthday party thanks to my beloved son Lucky and his lover Ariane who invited me to this unique place with an insane menu! In the company of those who love good food, it was a real shared treat! I was more than exhilarated by each of the mouthfuls tasted by the slowness of my taste buds wanting to take their time to be sure of the fabulous tastes that intersected in the mouth to arrive at an explosion of a perfect taste assembly. Each mouthful was a completely stunning tasting architecture. Each spoonful on the palate was such tasty gastronomy, you let it melt in your mouth and the flavors all revealed themselves like a happy event, it was pure magic. Even the caviar that my son decided to add to our menu! Accompanied by a Wine chosen by my Lucky which complemented the menu well. *Bring your own wine, we love it! What can we say about the warm welcome from the owner and all his employees who, like a dance, are active in front of us, preparing with a hand powdered with magic powder, to offer us these dishes in simplicity and complete modesty. Recommended? What do you think!!! In any case, as a birthday present it was NEC PLUS ULTRA for me!. Lucky, Ariane again a huge big THANK YOU for this completely amazing birthday dinner, I was jubilant throughout the dinner I have never so much HUM HUm HUm in my life sorry if that wasnt my only conversation hahahah that was so Good.... I will never forget this evening, even though when I got up this morning I still had sensations in my mouth, haha! I love you, Heres the idea for the menu...

For one of the best culinary experiences in Quebec, whether youre from the region or passing through, this is where it happens. Bring your favorite bottles and let Norman and his team guide you. Each of the dishes presented hides flavors that transport us elsewhere. The visual is worthy of magazines with colors and textures that are worth the time to be appreciated before being tasted. A pearl of the restaurant that is worth the detour....or several times for me.

The best restaurant in the city of Rimouski and thats saying something. I would even dare to say in eastern Quebec and many restaurants in Montreal should go into hiding. Restaurant Narval in Rimouski is a gastronomic place that highlights wild and local products from eastern Quebec. A unique experience with a single fixed menu that changes according to the experiments of chef Norman St-Pierre. Prepare to live an unparalleled experience in unsuspected oral spheres. Super original pairings between local products, wild edible pickings and arrivals of fresh produce. A high-end restaurant that only opens in the evening and only a few days a week. A very restricted schedule which will force you to have to reserve. The reservation book is sometimes full several months in advance. Another highlight is BYOB. For my part, I always take the time to carefully consult the menu to make a choice of pairing a Quebec wine, cider or spirits to pay homage to this extraordinary culinary journey. Prepare to dedicate a good two to three hours to maximize the benefits of this culinary trajectory! A restaurant worthy of the greatest addresses and the best to honor the person who shares your life. Otherwise, go with friends. If you are looking for a place to enjoy refined dishes in a pleasant and cozy atmosphere, Restaurant Narval is an excellent gastronomic choice in Rimouski! Vegetarian options: Unlikely because fixed menu at the discretion of the chef. Parking: Mix of free and paid parking in and around the street. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level entrance and wheelchair accessible.

July 22, 2024

The food is excellent, local, creative and succulent. The service is perfect, the owner and employees are very friendly, kind, attentive. The music does not fit at all with the style of the restaurant. Lots of songs in English, American, without flavor and without any connection to food, while we expect Quebecois, local, creative compositions. Or classical music. No, its just noise that attacks our ears when all the senses should enjoy the excellence of the food. The music should be harmonized and included in the project. When that happens, I will be able to add the 3 stars which allow for the perfect score. Dietary restrictions: The chef asks us at the start of the service if we have any dietary restrictions.

Im here to edit my review from last year. We had the take-out experience twice during the pandemic and it was so good it was so good. My partner invited me there for the first time, to my party, last week and it was absolutely incredible. There is no place in downtown Rimouski where you will eat as well as at Narval. the score of 10/10 applies to all elements of the evening: the atmosphere is really great even if its very small, the service is A1, super nice staff. We sat for 2 hours and ate for 1 hour 50 minutes (1st time slot of the evening). Each of the services were perfect. The mix of flavors is just incredible and we loved the sequence and evolution of the dishes during the different services. really cool value for money, in addition to being an AVV. We will definitely come back often!

5 stars for the friendliness of the staff as well as the quality of the meal. The chef came and sat at our table and offered us a vegetarian alternative; a very appreciated gesture. All services were delicious.

A culinary experience that far exceeds Montreal haute cuisine. A chef, Normand and a hostess Laurie who will make you discover their passion and their menu with thunderous enthusiasm. An experience, a must in Rimouski. The Van March, 16-09-2022 Parking: Parking everywhere in the city center. No problem.

Gorgeous! Succulent! We were on our 2nd visit in 3 months and we were as charmed as the first. Chef Normands food is excellent, the flavors are perfect, Lauries service is extraordinary and the whole team is smiling and ready to do anything to ensure that we have a pleasant evening! This is a high-end table for a truly affordable price. We will return there very soon. Thanks again!

I have been going to Narval since it opened in February 2020. Despite the tsunami of the pandemic that hit a month later, the Narval restaurant stayed the course and continued to offer high-quality takeout dishes. Since returning to the dining room, I return there once a month for dinners with couples or with friends for the quality, finesse and originality of the dishes. Indeed, the menu changes every month and its a celebration each time to return to Narval. The warm welcome from Chef Norman and his loyal, competent and attentive employees make each visit to Narval a special moment.
