Alebrije Cuisine Du Mexique sur Lyon

It was a real pleasure to return once again. You can truly sense a cuisine full of personality, where Mexican flavors meet French gastronomy in a very creative and perfectly balanced way. The menu was original, refined, and above all, remarkably coherent from beginning to end. I particularly enjoyed the subtlety of the combinations, the skillful use of chilies, sauces, and textures, always with excellent balance. It's inventive, but never overly showy: everything on the plate has meaning. You can feel a real identity behind this cuisine, a great deal of talent, and a chef who dares to offer something personal and masterful. An address I sincerely recommend.

This is a beautiful restaurant that mixes Mexican flavors and techniques with local produce and creates something outstanding. The tastes are surprising, especially the spices.

Excellent restaurant, excellent menu, excellent service. The restaurant even had Éva Langoria as a guest last night. Go without hesitation; you won't be disappointed. Trust the chef. Congratulations to the entire team!

A Hidden Gem in Lyon Worth Seeking Out! This restaurant pulls off something truly special — a seamless marriage of bold Mexican flavors and refined French culinary technique that somehow feels both surprising and completely natural. The menu is a genuine delight, with each dish striking a clever balance between the vibrancy of Mexican cuisine and the elegance you’d expect from a French kitchen. The wine and beer selection is equally thoughtful, with local French options chosen specifically to complement the kitchen’s inventive flavor profiles. But what really set the evening apart was the warmth of the staff. From the moment we walked in, the team made us feel genuinely welcome. They were attentive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure our whole family had a great time. If you find yourself in Lyon, do yourself a favor and make a reservation. This one is not to be missed.

Incredible! Everything was perfect from start to finish! The food was exquisite and the service impeccable. A must-try. They were able to accommodate my food allergies.

A delightful evening punctuated by a delightful array of culinary discoveries, each as delicious as it was original: I highly recommend it. I have a particular weakness for the delectable desserts!

We loved Alebrije. A creative, bold, and refined exploration of Mexican flavors. Excellent value for money, beautifully presented, colorful, and incredibly flavorful dishes that transport your taste buds. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

For Mexican food in France, I think this is better than 90% of places. Perhaps it’s because I lived in Mexico and I visited in the winter, but the food didn’t match my expectations. I’ll be visiting in the summer and re-review.

The cuisine is very refined. The combinations are original and the seasoning is perfect.

You want to taste something different, where the effort is being made of creating new tastes out of a mixture of cuisines? Here you are at the right place. With very French and local ingredients (salads, cheeses, champignons and more), but also with Mexican food (chile de árbol, chile pasilla, maize products) a vrai mélange is created, innovative and with a taste explosion. It is a daring and creative approach that is a just a joy to experience. The desserts, the coffee, the mezcal, the tequilas the wine offerings... all there. All star recommendations.
