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.

My brother & I were in Québec City for a wedding, & loved the ambience of this restaurant from the streets in Le Petit Champlain, so we decided to Google it & see what the menu was like.

We loved the cozy rustic vibe of this place. We tried the Rabbit & Duck Cassoulet for 2. With no exaggeration, we felt like it was one of the best meals we had during our stay. We are so happy we made a reservation in advance, because we watched them turn many parties away due to how busy & full they were with reservations!

Staff was very friendly & made sure to check on us often.

Would love to come back here any time I'm in Québec City!

Le service de la jeune fille, samedi AM, laissait à désirer...

Nov 5, 2023

Great location, somewhat small but well organised so get a reservation to get in & get it early! Food: rabbit poutine starter amazing (best part of our meal & some of the best around!), rabbit pies good, chocolate truffle dessert fab, pear dessert was not good (undercooked). Overall, we enjoyed our meal & would suggest this location but would say it's popular so be aware it will be a treat
