Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française en Lyon

24/04/2026: A very good experience at this restaurant in Lyon. The dishes are flavorful and well-prepared; you can tell the ingredients are fresh and high-quality. The menu selection is a bit limited, which might be frustrating depending on your preferences, but what is offered is truly delicious. Special mention goes to the waitress, who was very friendly and welcoming and greatly contributed to the pleasant atmosphere. The only slight drawback is that the prices are a bit high for the limited selection, but the quality is definitely there. Overall, a great place, especially for a pleasant meal.

22/04/2026: A restaurant well worth the detour! You'll discover quality cuisine where you can dine on the terrace when the weather is nice, complemented by a very pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. Excellent value for money, superb products – highly recommended for the quality of service.

19/04/2026: First experience and certainly not the last. Everything was perfect!

14/04/2026: With a daughter who's a Kpop fan, we had to try this restaurant... and we weren't disappointed, it's very reasonably priced and delicious.

26/04/2026: We had a wonderful time on the terrace of this restaurant, enjoying delicious, well-prepared cuisine made with high-quality, local ingredients. The service was impeccable (friendly staff, professionally prepared sea bream), which is truly appreciated and rather rare these days. Moreover, the value for money is perfect.

26/04/2026: A wonderful experience. The servers are professional and friendly, and the dishes and desserts are delicious, featuring local produce. This is not a tourist trap; it's a good, authentic restaurant that does justice to Rue Mercier and the beautiful city of Lyon.

06/03/2026: Phenomenal experience! The staff were attentive, Food incredible and wine pairings delicious.

06/03/2026: A Michelin star, a magnificent dining room, beautiful glassware, and silver cutlery. Dinner promised to be a wonderful Valentine's Day! However, it was marred by several missteps. The cuisine was certainly creative, but stingy, using simple, inexpensive ingredients for four out of the six courses, and the desserts were disappointing. The cheese platter was excellent, though, and we didn't refuse it given the meager portions. From the very first bite, we encountered an ingredient we had specifically requested be avoided (in which case, why ask us a few days prior?), the wines were poor value for money, and the desserts were bland and uninspiring. Two members of staff were arrogant. Also worth noting: the only restroom in the establishment offered only cold water for handwashing. Only the chef seemed honest, although he was surprised that we weren't particularly impressed by some of the dishes. We expect better from this "starred" establishment, which would do well to improve. There are few reviews on Google, but I'm making the effort to prevent some people from having this very disappointing experience in the capital of French gastronomy!

16/04/2026: An excellent restaurant. We had the set menu for lunch, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The recommended wine was simply superb. The service was always attentive, friendly, and courteous. We spent a very pleasant afternoon at Mr. Takano's.

08/04/2026: This was our first time trying Lebanese cuisine, and it was absolutely delicious. The staff was incredibly friendly, always smiling, and helpful. We ordered a variety of dishes; I had the Shawarma (really delicious) and it cost me 10 euros. They also let us try their falafel (a complimentary dish). I highly recommend it! Great prices 🥰

03/02/2026: Always a wonderful experience! From the service and the ever-improving selection of natural wines to the top-notch homemade cuisine, Le Troquet is a true delight! The little beef cheek croquettes are simply melt-in-your-mouth sweets. The fried chicken, a modern twist on karaage, is perfect. And even the desserts, including homemade chocolate mousse, are fantastic, with a particular favorite being the walnut and praline cream tart—wow, I recommend ordering one dessert per person! They offer excellent advice on wines and pairings, always with great suggestions. We simply had a wonderful time. A must-visit for tourists and locals alike! It's one of the best wine bars in Lyon. Bravo!

26/04/2026: A Croix-Rousse experience awaits at Le Pailleron restaurant. The welcome is warm, a lovely chat, and helpful advice. I opted for the cervelle de Canut, delicious with its salad and toasted bread. The andouillette with sweetbreads is simply divine, delicate yet generous. And to finish, the praline crème brûlée, pure sweetness and delight. Thank you for your kindness and this wonderful discovery. 20/20 for the chef. I'll be back to try the quenelle! Next stop: the Rosa Mir garden.

25/04/2026: The owner is super friendly and tells you the story behind each dish. The Lyonnaise quenelles are a must-try, as is the pink praline crème brûlée. Not to mention the lovely decor. A place worth returning to!

27/01/2026: Opening hours incorrect. Takes twenty minutes to change for the owner, but for some reason updating them seems a bridge too far. The ice creams are ok.
