Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Lyon

19/04/2026: Good bottle of wine. Too bad they no longer accept holiday vouchers.

18/04/2026: Another great find: a lovely, delicious bouchon in a beautiful location. Excellent, typical Lyonnaise cuisine. Attentive staff with great recommendations. Go without hesitation!

22/03/2026: Friendly staff, both bartenders and bouncers. Good atmosphere, simple but effective!

06/01/2026: The perfect place for your evenings out!

25/04/2026: Overcooked, greasy fries, like a tripe swimming in oil

24/04/2026: Fantastic canteen! Great atmosphere and super friendly staff! The meat and fries are amazing!

03/05/2026: Warm and welcoming, I recommend it 👍🏻

02/05/2026: Dinner for two with two set menus and a glass of white wine. Total around €60. I hadn't noticed they didn't accept restaurant cards... The waitresses were pleasant. However, we found the food expensive for the quality. The potatoes were swimming in oil. The salad wasn't amazing. The Lyonnaise cheeseburger looked tempting, but we didn't find it exceptional.

26/04/2026: Noisy restaurant - you have to like close quarters as there are only rows of tightly packed tables - average food

25/04/2026: Great time at Paul's, very generous portions and above all a real bistro atmosphere!

29/04/2026: Exceptional location in Old Lyon and a very pleasant setting

26/04/2026: Well located The shower doesn't work and this isn't indicated. And there's no shower door… Limited coffee available The bathroom light flickers Very poorly insulated; you can hear everything in the next room as if it were part of your suite… Suite… that's a bit of an exaggeration… It's a room with a sofa in the entrance. The coffee machine is broken. It's not quiet; the café terrace is right below.

10/04/2026: Long live Lyonnaise cuisine! You'll find plenty to enjoy. Andouillettes, quenelles, lamb sweetbreads, etc. Fast service.

03/04/2026: Chanchan and his team are on top form, more than ever. We enjoyed a delicious meal in a friendly atmosphere, chatting with other diners. The chef has fully recovered, and the reopening was a success. Here, you can eat homemade fries! The charm and quality of Croix-Rousse are right here at the "business" 😋

10/04/2026: Hello, We came for dinner for two. We had already been twice in the past. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. First of all, the most striking thing is the proximity of the tables. It's really not comfortable to have dinner for two while hearing conversations from the tables to the left and right. This layout is clearly designed to optimize service, but at the expense of the customer. The food was bland, the chicken supreme was undercooked, and the rice was dry, tasting like it had just come out of the microwave. The fruit for dessert was too cold, even hard. The service was friendly and well-intentioned. So, a disappointing experience for a €160 dinner. What a shame.

10/04/2026: Perfect! Beautiful, delicious, and affordable. We're rediscovering the taste and flavors of food.

12/04/2026: A restaurant with simple but good food, no frills, a warm and friendly welcome.

07/03/2026: A popular bistro. The food is very good and inexpensive. The staff at this restaurant are very welcoming.

29/06/2025: We had an unforgettable evening for my 50th. We were in the separate section, which gave us a lot of privacy for dinner. The food was very good, the pigeon and desserts were perfect. We received all the attention we wanted, no more, no less. A big thank you to Chef Mariller and his entire team.

28/06/2025: The welcome is very friendly, the dishes are sparse, but you'll be more than satisfied given the number of courses. A very enjoyable gastronomic experience; the flavors are present, and you'll appreciate the blends of textures. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience.

11/04/2026: Great food. Cozy atmosphere. Top-notch. Always worth a visit.

02/04/2026: I was looking for a tapas bar to share small plates with my friends, but the portions were far too small to even consider sharing anything. Perhaps the hot tapas are better, but after nibbling on a few cold ones, we couldn't imagine satisfying our hunger there. Fine for an aperitif before a meal!

01/02/2026: The setting is lovely, the food is pleasant and delicious. This place is a real find in this area, which has very few welcoming bars/restaurants with a nice terrace.

19/01/2026: What more can we say than absolutely fantastic! The decor is a blend of modern and retro, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. There's a lovely, spacious outdoor area with a terrace that we'd be delighted to explore when the weather is nice. The welcome was friendly and professional, with a real focus on customer satisfaction. We wanted to order sweet potato fries, but they refused because they weren't happy with the day's batch; they said they were a failure. We ended up ordering classic homemade fries, which were really good, just like the rest of our meals, which were as generous as they were delicious. In short, we highly recommend this fantastic place, and we can't wait to come back. We don't have any photos to add to this review because we were too busy enjoying ourselves 😉 P.S.: Their apartment, which we rented through Airbnb, was just as lovely.

13/09/2025: Unfortunately, Contre-Champ is not what it used to be. The chef has changed, and the experience is nothing like what you’ll see on Google or in older reviews. The food was disappointing, far below expectations, and the overall quality has dropped dramatically. To make matters worse, the poor waiter had to manage 11 tables completely on his own — service was understandably slow and chaotic, and it was painful to watch him struggle. What used to be a great place has become a real letdown. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a good meal.

13/09/2025: The restaurant has fundamentally changed its concept. Not a disaster in itself, but they should update the links/photos. Completely understaffed, one overwhelmed waiter for the entire dining room. The kitchen is taking it easy meanwhile. Way too hot inside. The food was okay, nothing special. We just wanted to leave...

15/01/2026: A lovely experience for me; I really enjoyed the food, which was very good, and the quenelles were generously served. This wasn't the case for everyone at my table; there were about ten of us! The atmosphere was good, but a bit noisy. Kudos to the service, though—very welcoming, cheerful, and smiling.

10/12/2025: We had a very pleasant time at this establishment. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The portions were well-balanced, allowing us to fully appreciate the three courses on the menu, and the food was of high quality. We weren't as impressed with the dessert, but special mention goes to the butternut squash soup and the pulled pork. We highly recommend it.

06/04/2026: What can I say except that this is literally my favorite bakery! The service, the quality of the products, and the unbeatable value are all fantastic! The bread is exceptional and keeps for ages!! Their pumpkin brioche...seasonal, but simply incredible! Anyway...see you soon, bakers...I'll be emptying the attic soon...

24/03/2026: I was looking for something sweet to eat and I found this bakery. They have many creations that look amazing. I went for a "briochette coco" that was delicious.
