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.

Nous avons visité Le Petit Lapin une fois pour le dîner & deux fois pour le petit déjeuner. La nourriture & le service, tant au dîner qu'au petit-déjeuner, étaient exceptionnellement bons. Après une semaine passée à Québec à visiter de très bons restaurants deux fois par jour, le Petit Lapin Sauté est devenu notre préféré. C'est un bon chef d'un restaurant de Montréal qui nous l'a recommandé, & nous sommes heureux d'avoir suivi son conseil

Le Lapin Sauté was highly recommended & it did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly & provided excellent suggestions. We had a rabbit & duck sample dish with potatoes, carrots, different sauces & the rabbit & duck were fixed different ways. I had a recommended white eine. We ended with the honey pie with creme. Everything was delicious. We had a wonderful time.

Wonderful meal at Le Lapin Saute. They had some special hot drinks for the night (mulled wine, hot cider, hot cocoa) & I took advantage of the Hot Cider with some spiced rum. Hubby had a dirty martini with a local Canadian Vodka which was very good. We split the main course for two which was perfect for trying the many interesting menu selections including some interesting preparations. A nice bottle of Languedoc paired perfectly. The servers were friendly & attentive. I highly recommend this cozy restaurant.
