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.

Excellent restaurant. Their specialty is rabbit, but not all the dishes have rabbit. Definitely a must. The restaurant is very small & a reservation is really needed. Sometimes, you have to wait a few minutes for a table to clear, even with a reservation.

This was our second time to Le Lapin. The food is outstanding with authentic cuisine of the region. Very pleasant service as well. Reservations are a must as the restaurant is small.

I ate here twice during my visit to Quebec City. They were clearly the best two meals I had. The service was excellent & friendly. The space is small & cozy. I highly recommend.

It was tough to choose what I wanted to eat most from the brunch menu... Decided on the tartine & was not disappointed! My partner had the rabbit poutine, something new for him & he loved it also. It's a cute spot in a busy area & worth the visit.
