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.

Bon accueil & ambiance sympa...nous avons pris 2 magrets de canard, sans surprise...& 2 cuisses de lapin. Très déçus, lapin pas cuit (très rosé à l'intérieur), viande sèche & sans saveur. Impossible d'avoir un vrai goût de lapin...Au final nous avons donc trouvé le prix beaucoup trop élevé par rapport à la qualité des plats. Nous sommes extrêmement déçus, d'autant plus que nous avons mentionné la mauvaise cuisson du lapin & aucune excuse n'a été faite ni aucun petit geste commercial (un café gratuit ou autre)...Mauvaise expérience pour un couple de la région.

My sister recommended Le Lapin & we totally agree that its worth a visit! Friendly service, an intimate atmosphere & great local cuisine. Their location is directly next to a wonderful winter garden with a fire pit & cute little cabin. We highly recommend! Can't beat the old world charm.

Un très joli restaurant, cadre chaleureux dans la rue du petit Champlain. Accueil sympathique & une cuisine délicieuse. J'ai beaucoup apprécié que les frites ne soient pas molles dans la poutine mais croustillantes.
