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.

We ordered the half portion of the huge plate $79, half portion is $44. Their waitress always recommends this expensive dish but nooooo, don't do the full size, not highly recommend. Rabbit leg is huge but not too much flavored. Friendly front desk outside. bread served was 2 cold 1 hot which is unusual. We waited for the bread for 20 mins & was told by a man impatiently "it should be with your food" Next time , plz be patient☺️ good atmosphere outside in the summer.

Best meal we had in Quebec City. Perfect atmosphere. Very helpful waitress. Got the Rabbit Saddle with gravy sauce & the Rabbit Meat Pie. Waitress gave us a terrific wine pairing recommendation. Finished with the maple crème brûlée! *also, tip, ask for bread. Perfect way to clean up your plate 👌

Le cadre extérieur est sympathique, le service est correct, mais la nourriture est à peine meilleure qu'à la cantine... Quel dommage! Ce restaurant a connu de meilleurs jours...& ne devrait pas compter que sur les touristes de passage!

The most delicious cassoulet ever! The starter soup (potato, celery) could have had a bit more salt. Nice atmosphere.
