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.

Excellent! le seul défaut : un peu à l'étroit mais en même temps, ça fait partie du charme de ce restaurant.

L’ambiance de la rue peut être sympa pour y manger mais les plats ne sont pas à la hauteur des avis que nous avions lu. Je n’ai pas retrouvé le goût du lapin, gros manque de caractère dans les assiettes & plats mal assaisonnés.

Le cassoulet n’a malheureusement rien d’un cassoulet…

Le service était cependant impeccable

a quaint & cozy restaurant. would recommend making reservations ahead of time. i was lucky to get a table walking in on a monday evening. food wise, everyone says french onion soup was good but maybe it’s just not my thing. it was lukewarm, which is a bit weird. & it was too salty. for the warm salad with rabbit kidneys & livers, i liked everyone in this dish except for the rabbit livers & kidneys. but it’s probably just me, not on the restaurant. however i cannot imagine better purée / dressing & potatoes for this salad, very tasty, light in flavor profile but good portion for the stomach! the salad itself is worth a 5/5.

Service impécable! Mon mari a adoré son burger. De mon côté, je trouvais que le grille-cheese manquait un petit quelque chose.
