La Cour des Miracles sur Lyon

The neighborhood doesn't look like much, and you wonder what you'll find behind the front door... Well, like Alice in Wonderland, you step through the looking glass 😍. A surprising and very welcoming setting, delicious food, and lovely service! An improbable and timeless evening! A place you'll want to keep secret, it's so precious...

It's expensive and a shame they don't accept restaurant vouchers.

The setting is lovely and surprising for the neighborhood, the waitresses are friendly, but getting served is a real problem. This is my third time here and it's always the same: at least 45 minutes to order, and just as long to be served (and even then, only after we complained!). All that only for them to tell us, when they finally bring our food, that what we ordered is no longer available… It's a shame, it ruins the evening.

A really nice restaurant, great atmosphere and a pétanque court. Excellent food!

The setting is still as pleasant as ever, and the dishes we enjoyed were very good. However, the organization is very complicated: if you plan to go, avoid having lunch there if you're pressed for time, such as during a lunch break at work. On our last two visits, the wait times were so long that the risk of leaving late is real. I really liked this restaurant and had been there several times a few years ago. It was precisely because I had such fond memories of it that I wanted to return. On our first visit in June, we waited almost an hour before we could order, and then almost another hour before our food arrived. In total, we spent nearly three hours at the restaurant. I understood that the chef had been absent at the last minute and that the staff had had to adapt, which could explain this negative experience. Thinking it was a one-off incident, I returned with a friend. Unfortunately, this second visit confirmed the same problems. Upon arrival, no one greeted us, and we had to find our own way to the courtyard. Ordering and serving our aperitifs were quick, but we then waited almost an hour for our starters. They weren't even served at the same time, even though there were only two of us. The main courses arrived shortly after, but again, they weren't served in a synchronized fashion, and we had to wait several minutes before we could eat together. While waiting to pay, we witnessed an altercation between the dining room and the kitchen, audible despite the screen. This tension unfortunately seemed to affect the overall atmosphere. However, I must commend the professionalism of a young, brunette waitress who was always smiling, pleasant, and remained very professional despite the situation. Conversely, another waitress, blonde, struck us as rather cold and unfriendly. She consistently brought only one drink or one dish at a time, which reinforced the feeling of disorganization. Finally, the menu seemed quite limited: few non-carbonated soft drinks, only three appetizers, two main courses (fish or meat), and three rather classic desserts. I would have appreciated more choice, especially more original seasonal desserts. In conclusion, the setting remains a real strength and the food is pleasant, but the organizational problems are now significantly impacting the customer experience. I sincerely hope this situation will improve.

The setting is very nice, but the value for money is terrible. €24 for a ridiculously small cheese board. When we pointed this out to the waitress, she brushed it off by saying it was "just the way the kitchen is" and that it's "always like that." Despite our complaint, they didn't make up for the smaller portions. It's a shame; I wouldn't recommend it for tapas!

1 hour 30 minutes to be served. Coriander everywhere; if you like it, go there...

Didn't try the food. The courtyard is really lovely!

Pleasant setting, I recommend it.

Escape the everyday in the heart of the 9th arrondissement! Eat, have a drink, and play pétanque to a soundtrack that sets the mood for the evening! Open until 6 pm in the summer, I highly recommend it for after-work drinks!
