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.

Good atmosphere, delicious food. We went to Montreal first & then visited Quebec city. This place was our first restaurant in Quebec city & we really enjoyed it. Way better than the restaurants we tried in Montreal.

Best meal of the trip! Highly recommend you make a reservation here & try the French Onion Soup. My husband especially loved the Rabbit & Duck plate. Very small but cozy restaurant with great service. We loved it here. Thank you again!

Nous y arrêtons chaque fois que nous sommes de passage à Québec. L'assiette brunch à partager est un classique indémodable, abordable & franchement délicieux. Impossible de laisser une miette 😉

Great experience on a Monday night in late winter at Le Lapin Saute. The atmosphere was cozy without being crowded, & rabbit themed without being too cute. Service was flawless - just the right amount of attention, recommendations, pace. We don't speak Quebecoise but the staff had impeccable English & made us feel welcomed. (This was true everywhere we went in Quebec City even as Canadian & American politicians are at odds.)

Food - we had rabbit poutine as an appetizer & a rabbit-duck sampler (with fondue) as our entree. Delicious, beautiful, unusual in a warm & rich good way.
