Pretty good meal. Had the poutine, French onion soup, cassoulet & rabbit saddle. The desserts are to die for!!!! Get the honey pie & crème brûlée. Best part of the meal!

Incroyable ! Belle expérience culinaire à la Française. Ça fait différent. Le cassoulet avec cuisse de canard confite était délicieux (c'était mon premier donc je n'ai pas d'autres référents par contre). L'ambiance était magique. Le vieux Québec en automne, c'est imbattable. Le dessert de poire au chocolat était délicieux. Un des meilleurs dessert que j'ai mangé dans un restaurant : original, pas trop sucré, léger, bien exécuté. Je vous le recommande.

The food here was incredible! Our favorite spot that we ate while in Quebec. The rabbit pot pie & rabbit poutine were delicious. The service was great, they brought us a special dessert for celebrating our honeymoon! A must try!!

Repas très bon, produits de qualités autour du lapin. Une tarte au miel salé en dessert à tomber ! Serveur au top. Terrasse sympa, même si manque un peu de place.

Reservations are a must if you don't want to wait.

There were many tables inside packed super close to each other so it got pretty loud.

We had the cheese fondue for appetizer - the melted cheese tasted ok. It was not runny even when it sat for 15-20mins & the bread had a light garlic flavour. (6/10)

Then we tried the Quebec Discoveries - the two duck items were my favourite as they were very savoury. The only thing I didn't like were the onions (8/10) & Rabbit Pot Pie - the crust was flakey but not buttery as I had hoped. The rabbit meat is tender like chicken but I didn't love the flavour of the soup. It was more on the mild side (7/10).

We ended it off with a Poached Pear - I don't like pairing fruits with chocolate or anything sweet so I didn't really enjoy this dessert. The pear was not sweet but it had a light cinnamon taste. (3/10)

I would definitely come here again to try their other rabbit & duck dishes.

I found this place through Google search for highly rated restaurants in old Quebec City & it did not disappoint. When we got to the restaurant, it was almost 12pm, as we didn't have a reservation, we were told that there would be seats available at 2pm. Very busy during the peak of summer! The inside & the patio seating area aren't very big so it fills up easily.

We ordered a rabbit poutine, French onion soup, rabbit leg & a kid's meal of salmon. The rabbit leg is excellent, I love the sweet potato puree. The beans & peas are soft, flavourful & plentiful. The onion soup was on the saltier side for me but if pairing with the rabbit leg, they go well together. We wanted to try at least one poutine dish while at Quebec so ordered the rabbit poutine as the restaurant is known for rabbit dishes.

The kids' menu is great & reasonably priced. It comes with a soup of the day, main, dessert & drink for $14. The portions are big enough to fill an adult. The soup is watermelon & veggie mixture, nice & cold on a hot day. We ordered a salmon dish & it came with a generous portion of salmon, lots of fries & peas & beans. Very healthy & tasty option for the kids.

The minor complaint is that the table is a bit small, it would have been okay if adults were dining, but with young kids, it feels a bit cramped.

Love the vibe of the street & the patio looks out onto a small park. Will be back when we visit Quebec again!

We had dinner here on two different nights while staying in Quebec City. We also stopped in for dessert on a third night. This place is magical. Catherine was our waitress two of the nights offering great service. She is a gem. The bartender also came over to share information about one of the liqueurs that we ordered. (Racines -an anise liqueur) He is very knowledgeable about the alcohol they serve at Le Lapin Saute. I wanted to eat here every night that we were in Quebec City. Our waitress on our last night was also very kind & knowledgable.

This is a must stop in Quebec City. ??

Our first time to Quebec City & we had a wonderfully memorable dinner out at this lovely restaurant.
Everyone was very welcoming . Sara, our server, took excellent care of us & was spot on with her suggestions . We started off with a Rose Cider, light, refreshing & bubbly. We wanted to taste a variety of food so we shared the Quebec discoveries plate for two & a delicious mixed salad with strawberries, & then shared the Cassoulet with Duck Sausage & confit duck leg. For dessert , we shared a piece of their amazing signature Honey pie that was so creamy, & just the right sweetness. Merci Beaucoup.
