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.

We had an exceptional time at Le Lapin Sauté! We had the special option with both rabbit in several forms, & duck confit. In addition, they were very accommodating for gluten-free options, even having a separate menu. We had such a wonderful experience, & hope we can come back in the future.

We went to this restaurant a few years ago & really enjoyed it. However, this time the lighting was very bright for dinner, we asked them to dim the lights & they did, a little. The music was odd, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna etc. It would be easy to improve the ambiance by dimming the lights, adding some candles & playing more appropriate music, ideally French/Québécois. I would go back for a burger & beer, but wouldn't splurge on a romantic night out there.
