First time visit - informative and friendly staff - novel cocktails - innovative use of local produce (grow their own herbs, make their own honey etc etc ) and pairing with local and other wines. Not cheap but Recommended if you want a unique dining experience in Sherbrooke. This is a place where terroir and passion are so evident.

How to begin other than with a WOW! And then how to pursue without threatening you to go at all costs! I couldn't even come close to sharing the pleasure that was experienced when eating there for the first time, aside falling short of what was a truly memorable culinary experience! My wife and I had been wanting to try L'empreinte for a while. It's big bay window giving on to King Street always attracts onlookers. Although for some reason, there never seems to be that many people, which after dining there is rather puzzling. We had made reservations for 1830 and when we arrived, the place was utterly vacant! Which is always somewhat wearying for a place serving food. We were greeted very well by Sophia, and permitted to choose any table we wanted, so we picked the Table des chefs, which made us feel like Queen and King from the get go! Having dietary restrictions, I was told to lay them out at reservation time, which I did. They remembered everything, and when presenting the dining concept and disclosing the menu, everything was laid out plain and simple with suggestions and alternatives. We were offered 4, 5, or 7 services. We settled for 4, but should have gone for 7! Simply because everything was so delicious! From the drinks to the mise en bouche, to the main dishes! Also, even the drinks were surprising, original, and inventive! There were many bottles of wine to choose from, but being light weight, we ordered a Martini and a microbrewery beer. There is no menu per se. The concept is highly intriguing, as it's a surprise what will be on your plate. You shall not be disappointed! Presentation is stunning and each course is brought and explained by the chef himself! A must if you're in Sherbrooke for a visit! Or one of those onlookers who haven't indulged yet in the sublime oral pleasure that is this gem on King Street!
This was an ordinary Wednesday night, transformed into a culinary circus by this magical place ! The atmosphere is tasteful, delicate, without trying to compete for your attention.. The staff is lovable, quirky, knowledgeable and somehow, foodie nerds... thirsting for perfection. Went back for lunch before Christmas. The service was not very good, but the place was very busy. The menu was much less interesting than the first time and the mac and cheese was very bland.
Belgian restaurant for breakfast. The prices are a little high but the quality is high too. The place is always full for breakfast, be ready to wait. I like their special belgian waffles. These are pretty big plates but very good. they know how to make decent Egg benedicts which is not the case in many breakfast place.
One of the best table in Quebec!
Great food. There is not menu. Let them surprise you. All the servings are unique or at least prepared in a unique way.
