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.

Soupe à l'oignon & excellente...pour le reste, déception...Cassoulet plus qu'ordinaire: saucisse du, sèche & difficile à couper...la chair de la cuisse de lapin qui ne se détache pas facilement de l'os & peu goûteuse. La poutine: très peu de fromage ainsi que de lapin...fallait chercher...

As quaint as it gets in Quebec City. Make your reservation as early as possible or forget having a chance at a table. The potpie was delish. Get the poutine appetizer to share. Very good Old Quebec experience that you won't soon forget. For stars for how HOT it gets inside.

The ambiance & food was amazing & just as I expected from Quebec City. Our waitress gave excellent recommendations. I highly recommend the chocolate ganache dessert, rabbit poutine, & foie gras!

Service impeccable, jumelé à des plats bien confectionnés, des portions genereuses (je n'ai pas mangé ma poutine au lapin en entier) & l'ambiance du Petit Champlain en font un incontournable dans le vieux Québec.

Ça vous prend des bières fortes & de caractère dans les choix. Exemples: Brasserie Charlevoix Dominus Vobiscum double triple. Trou du diable La buteuse, Unibroue Trois-Pistoles. Plus de fromage en grain dans la poutine, avec un Extra Fromage j'en ai eu bien moins qu'avec une poutine de base de Fromagerie Victoria.

Si je pourrais donner plus d'étoiles je le ferais. Nous étions 4 & avons adoré nos repas (cassoulet de fruits de mers, cassoulet à la viande, poutine au canard, tarte salée) & l'excellent service fort sympathique. La terrasse est très bien située au pied de la falaise à côté du parc sur la rue du Petit Champlain. Malgré la pluie ils se sont démener à bouger chaises & parasols pour nous garder au sec. Pour nous 2 ce fût une nouvelle découverte que nous allons répéter à notre prochaine visite à Québec. Pour les 2 autres habitués ce fût un agréable retour. Merci pour la belle expérience!

Le service est excellent! Une équipe dynamique & accueillante.

Le menu apéro est parfait à partager en milieu d'après-midi avant de reprendre la marche dans le vieux Québec.
Les prix sont très raisonnables, surtout pour un restaurant en plein coeur du petit Champlain.
Je recommande l'entrée de poutine au lapin!
