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.

Ce restaurant est de loin le meilleur où j'ai eu l'occasion de manger! Le menu est incroyable & les saveurs me donne l'eau à la bouche rien que d'y penser. J'habite à 3 heures de route & ma femme est déjà au courant qu'à mon anniversaire nous allons faire l'aller-retour simplement pour y manger! Au menu, riette de lapin, foie gras de canard, cuisses de lapin & de canard, sauce décadente & j'en passe! Menu diversifié & tout aussi appétissant. Merci Lapin Sauté !!! À bientôt!

1st time being in this place & we heard it was the best place to have dinner. We ordered the rabbit, onion soup, & the pork burger. Everything tasted great. The service & the server was amazing. If I could give the 10 stars I would.

Real cost place in the old city of Québec. The atmosphere is charming & warm. The service was excellent & the lady who served us was really kind. I have no words to describe how good the food was. I ate the porc with vegetables & my mother took a Fish Cassoulet. & the Honey Pie, one of the best dessert I ever had, the good balance between all the tastes, just for the Maple Syrup crème brûlée we didn't really taste the maple syrup. The place is quite small, so if you wanna go there it's better to reserve to be sure to have a table. I really recommend it!

I last visited Lapin almost 10 years ago & was glad to return to compare experiences. Portions have become smaller, prices have predictably increased. But I was pleased that the quality of the cuisine has not dropped much, & the atmosphere of the restaurant is still just as cozy. Some confusion was caused by the waiter, who hovered over one table, conducting a casual conversation about his passion for dancing, not paying attention to the other two tables that were trying to attract his attention. But we sincerely wish this guy success in his dance career!

My favourite meal while visiting Quebec City for 5 days. We enjoyed the rabbit & duck cassoulet & the seafood cassoulet, the honey pie, creme brulee & cappucino. Service was excellent. Patio was cozy & had heaters. Only wish we'd made it back to try more dishes.
