Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Lyon

19/12/2024: Waiters who flirt heavily with customers are no longer possible. Extremely poor quality beer for an excessive price, (meteor beer). The place pretends to be Pseudo punk but place run by dubious people, who think of making money without real value. I don't recommend it if you're looking for an alternative bar in Lyon.

13/12/2024: Very good value for money for a late dinner after a show, a stone's throw from the city hall metro station.

26/02/2026: Nice restaurant. The staff is really lovely. As for the food, it's good, but nothing special.

25/02/2026: Good Delicious Friendly Greasy

23/12/2025: Really nice, the food is good, and what a view!

08/12/2025: It's not the most chic restaurant or the one with the best cooking in Lyon, but it doesn't disappoint either: a neighborhood restaurant with a good and complete daily special. The space is correct and the service friendly. Very competitive price.

09/09/2025: A good place for lunch. The dishes are generous and tasty. The prices are reasonable. A bit noisy, but the food is good.

06/03/2026: Great owner, very friendly, don't trust the reviews. Restaurant and bar definitely worth trying.

02/03/2026: More than satisfactory! It's one of the rare times they've cooked the meat exactly as I wanted it (very, very well done) and I haven't had to send my dish back to the kitchen! On top of that, everything was delicious! Thank you!

05/02/2026: Not bad, but it would be better if the dishes were served a little hotter.

16/10/2025: noisy, table too close, having to shout to hear each other, kitchen needs to be reviewed, bad timing, and obvious lack of hygiene from the server

08/03/2026: Despite a very pleasant setting (and a splendid view of Fourvière), the service is a bit slow (19 minutes for a Ricard…).

05/03/2026: A must-visit terrace in the heart of Lyon, with an incredible view and a really great atmosphere! So pleasant to have a drink there with the beautiful weather that's coming! I highly recommend it!

28/02/2026: The worst bar in Lyon, both in terms of atmosphere and service, which is abysmal. Shots were watered down, and the beer was mediocre at best. Book your platter well in advance; it's prepared by the restaurant next door! Thank goodness Uber Eats delivered! The waiter was about as helpful as a suitcase without a handle. The only redeeming feature might be the history of the place, which is unfortunately misused.

28/02/2026: Very disappointing service, prices, and staff

13/03/2026: I stopped by by chance, but I really enjoyed the two dishes on the menu. The staff were also very friendly.

07/03/2026: Lovers of Lyon's gastronomy, steer clear! This is clearly a tourist trap, which is very disappointing in a place like the Bocuse Market. The menu showcases the best of Lyon's cuisine, but the result on the plate is quite the opposite: Burgundy snails bought from a store, a bland, burnt sausage with Cantal cheese instead of a proper gratin. The dry, tasteless tripe dish resembled a failed stale Milanese escalope, not to mention the overcooked dauphinoise potatoes. The ravioli gratin with morels was incredibly salty, like licking a bouillon cube. Truly below what one would expect from a place with its potential. The service was pleasant, however the owner, after being informed of my comments, simply did not wish to speak with me...despite looking me straight in the eye...in short, a disgrace to Lyon and its heritage.

27/02/2026: Always so delicious and welcoming… Thank you to Olivier and his entire team for making this place a magical experience on the peninsula… Thank you also for the very reasonable prices…🤩 I highly recommend it 😘

25/02/2026: We were very disappointed by the welcome. The waiter was particularly casual and haughty, bordering on disrespectful.

25/01/2026: The way you wash your glasses and mugs is a disgrace and a proof of a total lack of common sense. And of basic hygiene. Shame on you! I will file a complaint with the DGCCRF.

24/01/2026: Previously, we were served at the table. That's no longer the case: you have to order, then pick up your drink, and finally pay! In short, it's better to stay home or go drink somewhere else.

16/12/2025: Raphaël and Murielle were perfect and charming, with excellent advice. Thank you for this wonderful experience! 🤩🤩

13/12/2025: A wonderful discovery! I didn't know this shop at all, and I received a very warm welcome from Raphaël. They took the time to help me put together a gift set while respecting my budget. A very pleasant experience; I highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

15/03/2026: It was alright!! There was not a lot of person at night.. though, theres the figure skaters that loves to scare each other and it pissed me off, I was with my cousins (and their friend) but also with my aunt and dad, so it was nice I got the chance to help them.. a bit! But the issue was that when it was about to close i was doing a last skate around the rink and then theres the so called annoying figure skaters that comes over to me to scare me, we can't do anything about it!! But beside that, it was amazing

15/03/2026: I agree with several comments regarding the children's experience. The place promises a great family experience, but it falls short. While other rinks offer super fun skating aids (push-push skates), at Charlemagne you're left to fend for yourself with your little ones, keeping them safe among those weaving at top speed and skidding near beginners without a single attendant intervening. Management should review its family policy, obviously keeping a certain number of push-push skates for people with disabilities and renting out the rest, because many parents would be willing to pay for the promised experience, and that's how you do business :) Furthermore, the young people renting skates aren't pleasant, and the skates aren't great. Painful after 15 minutes. Head to another rink if you have children.

25/02/2026: A wonderful discovery at Les Halles Paul Bocuse. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal from start to finish, and it had been a very long time since I'd had such a delicious meal! The staff were friendly and professional—perfect. I will definitely be back!

15/02/2026: Absolutely fantastic!! Special mention to Georges the GOAT!

26/11/2025: A big thank you to the team and especially to Soumaya, who is always attentive, smiling, and offers great advice. Excellent restaurant.

23/11/2025: Terrible service and atmosphere. Especially the youngest employee; she's cold, haughty, glued to her phone. Only helpful to men! It was much better with the previous owners. It might be "good," but without service, it's pointless. An address I'm crossing off my list.
