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.

The restaurant is beautiful, it is in the middle of Quartier Petit Champlain; the service was great. We had duck & rabbit, the duck is tasty, but rabbit is dry & not good at all.

Great food & very helpful staff. We stayed mainly with the rabbit dishes which were wonderful, & the Maple Syrup Crème Brûlée was received very enthusiastically. The staff even helped us get a taxi to come to the next street (the restaurant is in a pedestrian area) for our parents to get back up the hill to the Château Frontenac. Great night.
