Riviere Kwai sur Lyon

Delicious. Generous portions. Friendly atmosphere. Kind and attentive staff.

What a fantastic find this Thai restaurant is! A small, pleasant dining room, beautifully decorated and air-conditioned. Open kitchen, Thai servers! A very small menu, which justifies the quality and freshness of the delicious dishes made to order. Flavors explode in your mouth, a real treat! Beautifully prepared plates bursting with flavor, I was truly delighted! The discount made it even better, otherwise the dishes are still quite pricey. I look forward to returning! Kudos to the team, the chef and service were superb!

Probably the best Thai restaurant in Lyon. Not the cheapest—you can't have everything—but the best. Why? There's this distinctly Thai understanding that a complex and balanced combination of flavors can create new ones. Combined with the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients, it surpasses many Thai restaurants in Thailand. They have a good source of Thai products, which they offer across the street in the "Bangar Market" grocery store, even though some of the ingredients they use, especially the fresh ones, are French. But that's true of all Thai restaurants in France. And yet, it's not a problem because they perfectly capture the essence, structure, and taste of Thai cuisine. If you're dining with a group, it can be a good idea to share several dishes, which are all served separately and are available in large sizes, although the regular portions, for example, for two people, are already quite generous. For those sensitive to spice, the chili levels are clearly indicated and are never very high; many dishes are completely spice-free. There's a real dessert menu featuring both Thai and Western dishes with a Thai twist for those who want to end their meal on a sweet note, European-style. And for drinks, there are Thai beers, well-chosen French wines, and a few house creations. Otherwise, the decor is pleasant and sets the mood with its open kitchen. There's a terrace overlooking a quiet street. The soundtrack is easy listening, not too loud. The service is courteous and efficient. It can get crowded quickly on weekends, so be sure to make a reservation. Also worth noting is Sichone, next door, which focuses more on seafood. It's run by the same team and is also excellent. It's my personal favorite, actually, for its originality.

Excellent!! And the waiter was lovely. Great time

Excellent staff advice and service! Our family enjoyed a high-quality Thai meal from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Absolutely delicious, and the waiter was super friendly 👍

The best Thai food in Lyon, along with its sister restaurants.

It's always a pleasure to eat at this restaurant. Incredible flavors and aromas, dishes that are both generous and exquisitely refined, a consistently pleasant atmosphere and service, and excellent value for money. A must-try in Lyon 🤩

Delicious!! but a pad thai for €19 is a bit steep.

The food is delicious, the prices are reasonable; they might seem exorbitant, but the portions are so generous that you get your money's worth. Most of the drinks and desserts are homemade.
