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.

1. The Rabbit legs tasteless, there is no flavour in the meat.
2. The pork burger was rough, did not enjoy it
3. The seafood casserole is a big disppointment, the bowl was full of beans, & there were hardly any seafood in it for a $33 meal. There were only a few tiny mussles, clams & shrimp - not fresh & small in the bowl.
4. The only good dish is the cream brulee which I enjoyed.

This is one of the most popular restaurant in the Petit Champlain. It is cozy with an outdoor sitting area where you have a nice view at the ever hustling Rue Petit Champlain. The staff was nice & prompt. The food was good.

Tout était parfait mais la tourte contenait beaucoup de champignons non cuits & pas de lapin du tout. Tous les autres plats étaient délicieux, service excellent. A refaire!

Although the food was well prepared & flavorful, I would suggest a bit more seasoning on the cassoulet. Also, a little bit more attention on the preparation of the rabbit leg as I thought my portion was slightly dry. But still...very delicious.
