Le Lapin Sauté est largement reconnu comme une destination charmante et chaleureuse, incontournable dans le Vieux-Québec, particulièrement appréciée pour ses spécialités authentiques de lapin et de canard. De nombreux visiteurs louent l'accueil attentionné du personnel, le service impeccable et la terrasse pittoresque idéale pour observer les passants dans le quartier Petit-Champlain. Bien que la majorité des convives soulignent la grande qualité de plats comme la poutine au lapin, le cassoulet et la tarte au miel salé, certains clients ont noté des incohérences dans la préparation, des délais de service occasionnels ou des portions jugées parfois trop petites. Malgré une forte demande rendant la réservation essentielle, la plupart des visiteurs considèrent l'établissement comme une adresse à ne pas manquer, offrant une atmosphère unique et intime parfaitement adaptée aux familles comme aux sorties romantiques.
This restaurant is so cozy, the waitresses are so inviting & polite. I especially enjoyed the warm cider by the fire, follow with a warm rabbit cassoulet & the discovery plate. It's a lovely romantic little spot.
One of coziest restaurants in Le Petit Champlain w very nice ambiance
The staff are very attentive & the food is very good.
The rabbit leg with mustard sauce , along with lamb as mains were excellent
The starter, mixed greens & very fresh.
Dessert- we had Crème Brûlée which was very nice way to end off a beautiful meal
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!

Service: Excellent
Everything rabbit, everything duck sharing plate + all the extras: good for 2-3 people & strongly recommened for those trying game meats for the first time.
I come here once every 2 years to indulge on something different but I will say this though...my mom & the other women in my family make better rabbit. They should take a recipe lesson from Eastern Europe.
Not sure why this restaurant is rated so highly (currently 4.6 stars by 3.7K reviewers). The higher prices for this area are to be expected, however the meal was incredibly disappointing.
Our servers were lovely, the portion sizes & presentation good, but the food was bland &/or overcooked. My partner got the rabbit pot pie, & I the salmon steak. We do not recommend this restaurant, there are better options within walking distance.
What a great dining experience. The atmosphere is quaint, friendly & historic. We had the Tour Lapin Tout Canard platter & it did not disappoint. Such a great variety of food present on this platter. The add-ons are of great value as well. Everything tasted to perfection! The pulled rabbit poutine was also fantastic. Highly recommend going but make reservations. This is a popular spot.
This little restaurant is super cute & charming, both inside & out! We came here on our first night in Quebec City. There are only maybe 8 tables, so a reservation is a must. As the name implies, the menu leans heavily towards rabbit dishes, but there are also several duck dishes, if you don't fancy rabbit. I started with the rabbit croquettes on a bed of beet hummus. The croquettes were nice & crunchy on the outside, but maybe a touch dry inside. The beets added more color than flavor to the hummus, which was to my liking (not being a big hummus person). My husband started with the onion soup which he enjoyed very much. You will find there are as many variations on onion soup in Quebec City as there are restaurants. I gave this one a 7 out of ten, but my husband gave it a 9. So, there you have it. There's a taste for everyone!
For the entree, I ordered the rabbit leg with mustard sauce, a traditional preparation done fairly well. My husband went off-theme & ordered the pork loin, but he was not disappointed.
Overall, it was a great first Quebecois meal. More than anything, I just loved the charming ambiance.
Stopped in for a wonderful lunch while visiting the area. Had a wonderful meal trying many different dishes & experiencing some great rabbit & duck.
Definitely worth checking out as it is not item you would typically get if from out of province.
The interior is definitely cute to sit in as well.
Wonderful local food. Great ambience & servive. Should have tried their rabbit dish. But their pork shoulder & ravioli easily impressed us. The onion soup is a must.
