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.

This restaurant is so cozy, the waitresses are so inviting & polite. I especially enjoyed the warm cider by the fire, follow with a warm rabbit cassoulet & the discovery plate. It's a lovely romantic little spot.

Reservation highly recommended!

It's a small, packed & lively space hopping, probably nothing is hopping, but you are aiming for the hoppers right?

Hares & ducks are their signature & their lively hospitality is icing on the cake!

We had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant. We ordered one of their shareable dishes, & it was absolutely delicious, full of flavour, beautifully presented, & perfect for sharing. The service was just as impressive. The staff were warm, attentive, & genuinely made us feel welcome throughout our visit.

Everything from the food to the atmosphere to the hospitality was spot?on. We left so happy & satisfied. Highly recommend, & we'll definitely be coming back!
