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.

The food was good. My meat was a bit overcooked & at some places burned but the rest was really good. My husband also thinks that his meat was a bit overcooked but the rest was really good. The music was a bit too loud for me (noise sensitive).

Located on the popular Rue du Petit Champlain, this quaint French bistro felt very on theme with the charming traditional Quebec City architecture so synonymous with this location. The authentic tastes of their food left an equally memorable impression on us. We were lucky to grab a table for two early in the evening for dinner. The restaurant was full of guests but there remained a pleasant, cozy ambience with its gentle lighting as well as a clear view through the windows to the street out front. The staff helping us was friendly & patient when we gave our orders in English. To start, we had the French Onion Soup & Cheese Fondue & those came with plenty of fresh bread & butter. The cheese in the soup was stringy & different from the cheese in the fondue. The rich onion flavours in the soup also made it a great dip for the bread. Together with our delightful cocktails, anticipation for the mains was building. The rabbit themed signage at the door & on the menu made an obvious dish suggestion. We ordered the Rabbit Leg Cassoulet & the Duck Cured Meats Platter as our mains. The cassoulet was cooked well & the rabbit leg was juicy & tender. There were plenty of vegetables which added heft to the hearty stock. The Cured Meats Platter was beautifully arranged & tasted as good as it looked. It was a lot of fun mixing & matching the different meats & crackers as we worked our way around the platter. Overall, we really felt having dinner here made our short stay in Quebec City a memorable experience. We would recommend it to anyone, but especially to anyone who is not the most au fait with French cuisine.
