18/02/2026: OMG, I never heard of this place before, how could I miss this. Have been in many places in Lyon, this one is in the top 10. Hospitality 1000% and the food was amazing, so well cooked and plated. Cozy atmosphere. TOP!

15/02/2026: A pleasant surprise, but... The dishes were truly excellent, with a delicious and generous foie gras starter, followed by perfectly cooked chuck roast and its accompaniments, delicately prepared fish, and finally, very high-quality desserts. Congratulations to the chef and his staff! But there was a "but"... Unfortunately, we encountered a service that day that was overwhelmed, or perhaps unaccustomed to the profession. Indeed, we sensed the young man who greeted us in the upstairs dining room was lost in his role. Taking our order was already difficult: "For an aperitif, we ordered two kirs, and the waiter only offered us blackcurrant kir, served in a digestif glass 🤔🤪, while a few minutes later another waiter was offering several flavors at the next table. Anyway... Then the starter arrived (perfect). We waited and waited and waited for the main course (about 45 minutes). We were completely forgotten, and after a while, we had to ask for it, and The same thing happened again with dessert, which somewhat spoiled the evening. We arrived first in the upstairs room at 8:30 pm and were the last to leave at 11:20 pm (for a starter, a main course, and a dessert). Of course, we politely mentioned it when paying, but there was no reaction or apology from anyone. It's a real shame, because, as I said, the food is truly excellent.

13/02/2026: A cozy, historic setting with refined and original cuisine and excellent service. Perfect for a romantic dinner. We had a delightful evening.

13/02/2026: An explosion of flavor in a discreet, friendly setting where you feel like you're a little... alone in the world.

27/02/2026: Fantastic experience, excellent service, and delicious local cuisine. The portions were generous, and the quality/price/atmosphere ratio was excellent. As requested by the server, I ordered the pineapple-Tabasco juice.

26/02/2026: Great dinner with colleagues. A relaxed, traditional bistro atmosphere, and the owner kept us entertained, creating a pleasant ambiance. We had eggs meurette and quenelles. Thank you!

20/02/2026: Absolutely perfect. Delicious food, exquisite wines.

15/02/2026: A first and a success. Top-notch from start to finish. Quick and pleasant service, a real discovery with only fresh products, beautifully presented dishes, as beautiful as they were delicious. Thank you.

02/01/2025: Really nice place, cozy atmosphere and fair prices. The food was really great, a great Lyonnais bouchon place. The set menu was really delicious. Definitely a great Lyonnais restaurant to try if you are in Lyon.

31/12/2024: I live in the United States, and my little brother lives in Lyon. During my visit after several years of absence in France, one of my wishes was to eat in a Lyonnais cork. My brother managed to get a reservation for 14 people. We were warmly welcomed. The food was delicious, and the service impeccable. Our children and teenagers also loved it. I recommend this restaurant 100%!

23/02/2026: An excellent experience in a pleasant and intimate setting. The service was very friendly and unpretentious. The cuisine was truly excellent, with exquisite flavor combinations. The bill was high, but it seemed justified given the overall high quality.

10/02/2026: A truly wonderful evening spent in a historic Lyon culinary landmark. The cuisine was indulgent and generous, with all the precision of a two-Michelin-starred restaurant. (Personally, I give it three stars!) The spider crab with caviar was pure bliss! :) The staff was as warm and welcoming as those found in the finest Lyon establishments. I'm already eager to return. One minor point, unrelated to the food, was the valet who insisted on a tip even as we were about to leave one.

06/12/2025: I've been waiting for my food for an hour. And it's clearly not going to arrive anytime soon.

05/12/2025: A €14 salad consisting mainly of lettuce leaves! The Caesar salad had mayonnaise dressing and a few breaded pieces of chicken. No croutons. The Parmesan had no flavor. Avoid it.

09/02/2026: I loved my sandwich and the homemade fries, and my mother ate a famous tasting platter.

08/02/2026: I don't usually leave reviews, but this was excellent. The entire conversation during the meal revolved around how delicious the food was. I highly recommend it; the prices are so reasonable considering the quality. A special mention for the warm and welcoming service; I truly felt like a guest in someone's home.

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!

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

15/02/2026: Delicious cuisine made with fresh, seasonal produce. From the appetizer to the dessert, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

28/11/2025: My favorite restaurant in Lyon for years: sophisticated cuisine, always with just the right amount of boldness. They often have game, but also more classic dishes, and they're very welcoming to vegetarians if you let them know in advance. The service is impeccable, attentive, and discreet, and the setting is lovely: hardwood floors, a French-style ceiling, and plenty of space. A hearing-impaired member of our group actually had a great evening at a restaurant there for once!

06/03/2026: We had a wonderful evening in this friendly place. The food is authentic, full of local flavors, and reminiscent of the aromas of a delicious home-cooked meal. Here, you can take the time to chat and connect with friendly people. I will definitely return.

01/03/2026: Exceptional value for money in a unique setting! Top-notch service.

15/02/2026: Without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Lyon. The decor is incredible, the atmosphere chic and intimate, even the restrooms are magnificent with their own unique style. The food is impeccable; the raspberry dessert was excellent. The staff is very friendly; it's flawless.

13/02/2026: We had a wonderful time in a beautiful setting with great background music. The service was excellent. And the food was delicious. We will be back, thank you very much.

06/03/2026: Loved this place.It's cozy and just steps away from the Opera. Great service and a lovely vibe.

02/03/2026: Excellent crepes, very friendly welcome with smiling and welcoming staff. Good value for money. I'll be back.

15/02/2026: Excellent meal one evening at Lron de Lyon. A very good experience. Well done and thank you to the whole team! The pike quenelle was amazing! The chicken supreme with morels was delicious! Top-notch!

15/02/2026: Good quality at a fair price. I came for the second time and I will come back.
