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.

Chat GPT recommended this restaurant, but it was the worse French Onion Soup either of us ever had. It was watery & tasteless with barely any onions. The cheese was the only good part of the soup. It was so bad, we went elsewhere for the rest of our dinner. The girls were lovely though.

Restaurant petit mais avec une grande terrasse à l'abri du soleil situé dans le coeur du Petit Champlain. J'ai pris une tourte au lapin avec mon ami & c'était très bon. Prix abordable. Ambiance familiale. Pas accessible au fauteuil roulant.

Personnellement, je n'ai pas vraiment apprécié ni la soupe à l'oignon ni l'assiette à partager à 34,00$. Par contre, mon conjoint a tout aimé (cocktail, soupe l'oignon & assiette à partager). Étant donné la petitesse des tables, un plateau tournant serait intéressant pour les assiette à partager. Côté ambiance, beaucoup trop de bruit compte tenu que les tables sont très rapprochées dans la salle à manger intérieure. (Concernant la question'Quels étaient les types de sièges disponibles?', Mon conjoint avait réservé en ligne.)

Lapin Sauté is in a fantastic location right in the heart of Petit-Champlain. The atmosphere is cozy & welcoming, perfect for a Québec City experience.

The wait was a bit longer than expected, but once seated, everything was wonderful. The food was wonderful (the rabbit dishes are a must-try!) & the cocktails were spot on. Service was friendly & attentive once we were at our table.

Food is only okay. Service is slow. They obviously forgot about our order & then pretended it was'coming' just a little late. No apologies either. Don't recommend.

5-starring everything is a no-brainer! I had the'Tout Lapin Tout Canard' (Duck, Rabbit Dish - foie gras included) with the extra fondue. For drink we got a bottle of Sicilian wine which was also great. Do not regret a single thing. The atmosphere was unforgettable. There was a man that started playing on his guitar down the walkway by the restaurant & it was the cherry ontop. Maxim was amazing too! He made us feel right at home & was very helpful - a genuine lad! Highly recommend this restaurant & giving it the credit it deserves! :)
