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.

Well situated on a lively part of Old Quebec near the Port, this is a cosy place to dine with filling hot meals a plenty. I'm vegetarian & enjoyed sharing the cheese fondue for entree & the pasta for main while my husband loved the rabbit leg! Dishes are reasonably priced & there is a great option to choose multiple courses for a set price. The menu had other meals outside of rabbit however judging by what people around us were ordering, rabbit is definitely the speciality & a great opportunity to enjoy it here.

Lovely bistro with good food, not great. Service okay. Water not filled, never brought bread. Onion soup very good but a little less thyme would be awesome. Rabbit was delicious as was the light & simple pasta dish.

The service was excellent & the food delicious! It was a memorable evening. It was small & cozy inside, but not loud. We made a reservation 2 days before. Definitely recommend.

What an experience! First of all, it's snuggled right in the old town Quebec area. We felt compelled to try to the rabbit as it was their specialty which was a little out of our comfort zone - but it did not disappoint. They offer a meal to share for two that includes a variety of rabbit & duck dishes & sides. It was by the far the best meal we had in Quebec. Would highly recommend & service was outstanding.

Overall a spot with considerable charm. Cosy ambiance, fairly delicious offering. We had the justly popular duck & rabbit platter which offered good value especially those wanting a nice range of tastes & texture. Our indoor server was an excellent hard worker & very kind & attentive. Easy to see this as popular with tourists.
