About Saveur

A passion for exceptional cuisine, a commitment to excellence, and fifteen years of unforgettable dining experiences.

A Legacy of
Culinary Excellence

Saveur was born from a simple yet profound belief: that dining should be an experience that engages all the senses and creates lasting memories. When Chef Laurent Dubois opened our doors in 2009, he brought with him not just recipes, but a philosophy shaped by years in the world's finest kitchens.

From the elegant Art Deco dining room to our open kitchen where culinary magic unfolds, every element of Saveur has been thoughtfully designed to enhance your experience. We believe that great food deserves a great setting, and that service should be warm, knowledgeable, and unobtrusive.

Today, Saveur stands as a testament to what happens when passion meets dedication. Our team, many of whom have been with us since the beginning, shares a common commitment to making every meal exceptional.
