Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Lyon

20/10/2026: It is hard to describe how much we loved Takao Takano. We sampled several Michelin restaurants in Lyon and this was our absolute favorite. Right from when we came in the entrance, our umbrella and jackets were taken and we were shown our seats. The staff was exceptionally attentive, kind, and ready with recommendations. We had the lunch three course menu and wish we had room to pick the four course. Each dish came out and we thought we had found a new favourite dish with every new plate. We were hesitant to pick up and eat the fried fish, but our waiter gave us confidence to eat the lightly fried appetizer and our taste buds sang! We were given several wine pairings and cheese recommendations with the cheese cart. Our meal was followed by some espresso and light pastries. The two servers expertly handled the small dining area, and were swift and in sync for every meal served to us. The main fish entree was my favorite, both my wife and I are usually averse to fish but we are so happy we had it. Each bite with both sauces carried us to heaven. I can not recommend Takao Takano enough, I loved every dish on the sampling menu and if I get the chance to come here again I will skip Paul Bocuse and come right here for dinner.

15/10/2026: In a warm and welcoming atmosphere, we discovered the cuisine of Mr. Takao Takano, who captivated us with the delicate textures and delightful surprises offered throughout the lunch. A truly wonderful moment of sharing and culinary discovery, which we highly recommend. A big thank you to the entire team for their attentiveness, warm welcome, and exceptional professionalism.

20/09/2026: A friend from Lyon had recommended this bouchon, a restaurant she's known her whole life. It's a family-run establishment. We weren't disappointed. Everything was delicious and homemade with quality ingredients. We started with cervelle de canuts (a cheese spread) as an appetizer to share, followed by oeufs meurette (eggs poached in red wine sauce), delicious pike quenelles, rum baba for me, and crème brûlée for my husband. A real treat!

20/09/2026: Excellent across the board, I thoroughly enjoyed it!

21/09/2026: The wine, beer, and food were all delicious. We were also notified in advance that there was a kitchen problem and we needed to change our reservation time. They even explained the menu in English to us, as we were unfamiliar with the language. Thank you very much. A friend recommended this place, and it was truly delicious. I especially recommend the octopus. The portions were generous, so we shared between the two of us. If I have the chance, I would definitely like to go again.

07/10/2026: An excellent restaurant we first encountered in Croix-Rousse... Now located in the heart of the 6th arrondissement. A menu that changes very regularly, refined dishes and original flavors, in a simple yet modern dining room, not to mention the upstairs space. A truly beautiful establishment where your taste buds will be delighted.

02/09/2026: First evening in Lyon with a bit of a disappointment: truly bland risotto... mussels with only their shells... flavorless prawns... rice and peas so over-inflated with flavor that they lost their flavor; the cheeses on the finish were truly embarrassing... high prices for the quality of the dishes.

28/10/2026: Good lunch, I highly recommend it.

03/10/2026: I came with my partner on a Friday evening. The welcome was fantastic, the atmosphere calm and understated, a real pleasure to be able to converse without having to raise our voices. The meal was excellent, with incredible flavors. The value for money is more than fair. We loved our evening. I recommend this restaurant for a date night...or even for a larger group (personally, I don't think this restaurant is suitable for young children...but that's just my opinion).
