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.

Après avoir réservé via internet (site lapin sauté), & avoir prévenu d'être 3 avec un bébé & une poussette & que nous souhaitons un espace adapté pour la poussette.
Nous sommes arrivés & nous avons était mis dans un coin du restaurant avec peu de place pour la poussette.. le service avec distribution des cartes, sans explication réelle ..

Nous avons pris une tourte au lapin, peu de garniture avec (seulement de la salade..) & nous avons prit un cassoulet qui lui était très bien & un sandwich grill-cheese bon.

Rapport qualité prix non adapté car tarif assez élevé pour ce que nous avons dans l'assiette.

Restaurant bien dans l'originalité & dans l'organisation

Third time last sunday & as always it was amazing. Great wine selection & nice cocktails. Decent-to-good service as you sometimes feel like the servers really want to upcharge you by excessively suggesting add-ons etc, but quick service as well, & I never ran out of anything.

The food is amazing & really a great way to experience Quebec cuisine & produce/meat. All flavors are insane, & the portions are generous, leaving you satisfied & full.

Personal highlight would be the duck foie gras terrine & the salted honey pie.

Excellent service, excellent food, in a central location!

Try the rabbit poutine with the mustard sauce (it's nothing like your normal yellow mustard, it's actually very similar to gravy).

The cheese plate is a bit expensive for what you get - I would avoid that next time. Tasty - but not worth $35 in my opinion

I would eat here again.

Second night of three in Quebec & this restaurant was great. We had a shared starter of rillette, cheese & other goodies followed by a rabbit casserole. My wife had the prawn & seafood cassoulet. Atmosphere was great & we talked to people on either side of us. Just a lovely friendly place with excellent food & service!
