Compère Lapin offers great food, excellent wine, and top-notch cocktails in a perfect atmosphere. The eclectic menu features inventive Creole cuisine with a Caribbean flair, including must-try dishes like curried goat with sweet potato gnocchi, fried chicken, and jerked pork belly. The restaurant’s decor is reminiscent of old-style townhomes, with black and white mini-tiled flooring, hardwood, and elegant furnishings with classic accents. The ambiance is lively yet inviting, enhanced by rhythm and blues-inspired music softly playing in the background, creating a sophisticated and warm setting. Guests have noted the chill lounging area for waiting, and the varied tables accommodate all group types. The menu draws inspiration from Caribbean and Kweyol (Creole) roots with a modern twist, offering a creative collection of dishes. Friendly and professional staff provide efficient service, ensuring a memorable experience. The wine list is extensive, and the sommelier is available to help with perfect pairings. The biscuits remain a standout dish, and the curried goat is highly recommended as a second entree. The staff goes the extra mile to make every visit special, even celebrating occasions with thoughtful gestures. Overall, it is an ideal place for dining and hosting events, blending flavor, creativity, and hospitality in a well-balanced atmosphere. However, some guests have mentioned that the music can be loud, making conversation difficult.
