Review Summary

Le Lapin Sauté is widely celebrated as a charming, cozy, and quintessential destination in Old Quebec City, particularly favored for its authentic rabbit and duck specialties. Many visitors praise the restaurant for its warm, welcoming staff, impeccable service, and a picturesque patio perfect for people watching in the Petit Champlain district. While the majority of diners highlight the high quality of dishes like the rabbit poutine, cassoulet, and salted honey pie, some guests have noted inconsistencies in food preparation, occasional service delays, or a preference for larger portion sizes. Despite the high demand making reservations essential, most guests consider it a must-visit venue that captures a unique, intimate atmosphere suitable for families and romantic outings alike.

Dinner for two on summer evening. Had the rabbit poutine, seafood cassoulet & a pasta dish. All was very good. Service was friendly & responsive. I would eat here again. Obviously in a touristy area but still very good.

Accueil convivial & service avec le sourire, & au petits soins. Malheureusement la nourriture a été décevante considérant le prix. Nous avons pris une table d'hôte avec cassoulet & le canard était sec pour nos deux assiettes (moi & mon amis). Les flageolets prenaient beaucoup le dessus sur le reste, leurs texture était assez molle. Considérant l'entrée, tranches de canard, c'était assez fade. En dessert, la tartelette aux fruits, c'était excellent & généreux. Les quantités étaient satisfaisante mais j'aurais préféré une meilleure qualité.

We had dinner outside on the beautiful patio facing the courtyard. We ordered a few appetizers (the gazpacho & the foie gras) & the rabbit cassoulet to share, as well as beer & wine. An altogether beautiful meal in a beautiful setting, set just apart from the fray. The service was impeccable, too.

The most delicious cassoulet ever! The starter soup (potato, celery) could have had a bit more salt. Nice atmosphere.

Real cost place in the old city of Québec. The atmosphere is charming & warm. The service was excellent & the lady who served us was really kind. I have no words to describe how good the food was. I ate the porc with vegetables & my mother took a Fish Cassoulet. & the Honey Pie, one of the best dessert I ever had, the good balance between all the tastes, just for the Maple Syrup crème brûlée we didn't really taste the maple syrup. The place is quite small, so if you wanna go there it's better to reserve to be sure to have a table. I really recommend it!

My favourite meal while visiting Quebec City for 5 days. We enjoyed the rabbit & duck cassoulet & the seafood cassoulet, the honey pie, creme brulee & cappucino. Service was excellent. Patio was cozy & had heaters. Only wish we'd made it back to try more dishes.

Mention spéciale pour le cassoulet à partager, le meilleur à vie.

We made reservations for our anniversary dinner. & I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant - everything was perfect! Highly suggest the rabbit poutine, cassoulet, & salted honey cake! Even tried the local gin. You won't be disappointed!

Wonderful dining experience. We shared the cassoulet for two, which was the tastiest I've ever had. The duck & sausage were incredible, though the rabbit was a bit too gamey & dry. Excellent kids menu. Good wine menu. The quebecois red wine was surprisingly excellent. Attentive service & cozy atmosphere. We were lucky to get a table walking in & I recommend reservations.
