I had such a wonderful meal at Le Lapin Sauté in the heart of Old Quebec. The atmosphere is cozy & full of charm-perfect for enjoying traditional French-Quebecois dishes.

One of the highlights of my visit was their French onion soup. It was simply outstanding-deep, rich broth layered with perfectly caramelized onions, topped with a thick layer of golden, bubbling cheese & crusty bread that soaked up all the flavor. Every spoonful was comforting & delicious, especially on a cool evening.

The service was warm & attentive without being rushed. You can feel that they care about offering a genuine local experience.

If you're exploring Petit Champlain & want an authentic taste of Quebec, don't miss this place. I'll definitely be coming back for the onion soup alone!

Best meal of the trip! Highly recommend you make a reservation here & try the French Onion Soup. My husband especially loved the Rabbit & Duck plate. Very small but cozy restaurant with great service. We loved it here. Thank you again!

Absolutely amazing food & fast & friendly service. Make sure to make a reservation. The amount of food is perfect & the cost is reasonable. Be sure to ask for bread & an English menu if you need one. The waitress even remembered which tables were French & which were English speakers each time she went to a different table.

Our last dinner in Quebec was at Le Lapin Sauté. The restaurant is small & cozy & warm with a fireplace. The atmosphere so friendly. The food was piping hot & delicious. I had the Duck Confit Parmentier & it came with a delicious leafy green salad. The portion was large. My husband had the grilled cheese- also delicious, & accompanied by french fries & salad. The prices are crazy reasonable! We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Thank you to the lovely staff & chef.

It was the first time tried rabbit! The rabbit was a bit dry but the sauce was not bad. Duck sausage was not bad as well. I loved the French onion soup!!! Overall feels like really well-made home-style health dishes.

Located on the popular Rue du Petit Champlain, this quaint French bistro felt very on theme with the charming traditional Quebec City architecture so synonymous with this location. The authentic tastes of their food left an equally memorable impression on us. We were lucky to grab a table for two early in the evening for dinner. The restaurant was full of guests but there remained a pleasant, cozy ambience with its gentle lighting as well as a clear view through the windows to the street out front. The staff helping us was friendly & patient when we gave our orders in English. To start, we had the French Onion Soup & Cheese Fondue & those came with plenty of fresh bread & butter. The cheese in the soup was stringy & different from the cheese in the fondue. The rich onion flavours in the soup also made it a great dip for the bread. Together with our delightful cocktails, anticipation for the mains was building. The rabbit themed signage at the door & on the menu made an obvious dish suggestion. We ordered the Rabbit Leg Cassoulet & the Duck Cured Meats Platter as our mains. The cassoulet was cooked well & the rabbit leg was juicy & tender. There were plenty of vegetables which added heft to the hearty stock. The Cured Meats Platter was beautifully arranged & tasted as good as it looked. It was a lot of fun mixing & matching the different meats & crackers as we worked our way around the platter. Overall, we really felt having dinner here made our short stay in Quebec City a memorable experience. We would recommend it to anyone, but especially to anyone who is not the most au fait with French cuisine.

We were lucky to find a spot here when we went, because the food is great & there were many people in the city when we went. If you want to try more authentice french/quebec food this is the place. Cant go wrong with Le Lapin Sauté.
