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.

Tough to decide between 4 & 5 stars. This restaurant is built around French-influenced comfort food. So it isn't really "swinging for the fences." I went with five because they do what they are trying to do very well. Everything was tasty & satisfying & the service was excellent.

We had a glass of wine & shared plate which was a wonderful appetizer. We sat on the patio & were served by a very friendly young lady. A lovely street & atmosphere. A definite place to return.

Service & food were excellent. Staff ran around around to set the outdoor area up for a rainstorm to allow visitors to stay in place as it passed overhead. The fondue was great, the rabbit was expertly prepared, & the Maple Creme Brulee & Shortcake Cookie with fruit were great desserts!

The service was excellent. The location is lots of fun - right in the heart of the old city. The 4 stars is because the menu is a bit limited but very tasty indeed!!'
