Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine française dans le arrondissement Lyon-2E de Lyon

16/08/2026: How lucky we were to stumble into le p’tit vert on a very hot day in August. As tourists in Lyon one can often feel like an inconvenience for restaurateurs, but the charming staff and owners here gave us a taste of the local experience. Everything from the Frâicheur salad to the citron givré was beautiful. A lovely place.

07/08/2026: A restaurant that keeps things simple but does them well. The service is very pleasant and you quickly feel at ease. As a bonus, if you keep your eyes peeled, you might even spot a French football legend 👀

28/08/2026: I don't go to restaurants anymore because I'm fed up with paying €60 for undercooked food and leaving hungry. Here, all the dishes were delicious, the service was quick, and the portions were generous—nothing more to say. Well done!

25/08/2026: Frog Legs cooked perfectly. Succulent & a generous portion indeed. The staff was especially professional and kind. Highly recommend! Merci.

28/08/2026: I sincerely believe Fiona and Brian should work 24/7 at the Trolley. I find it completely unfair to arrive at 2:30 pm and not see them. It's devastating news for us every time. 😔 There's always a pang of disappointment when we come for our Ricard and don't get to be served by them. How are we supposed to cope with such a letdown? Fiona and Brian, you are essential to the smooth running of this establishment. We simply ask for your constant presence. Thank you for making it happen.

28/08/2026: I only come to see Fiona and Brian. When they're not here, my little alcoholic heart breaks 💔

06/09/2026: A discovery during our stay in Lyon, it was delicious and the prices are very attractive!

02/09/2026: A friendly restaurant; the flammenkuche are quite good, but it gets filling quickly.

21/08/2026: A wonderful discovery with dishes I had never eaten before. It was really great!

20/08/2026: We arrived an hour ago and the wait is starting to get to me. I hope the food will live up to the wait!

08/09/2026: For the second time, we booked lunch online and are once again full of praise. It's a shame we don't know about this training program in Germany.

05/09/2026: Absolutely perfect! Well done to the students who are off to a great start this year. I highly recommend this school. Thanks to Agathe, Anna, Théo, and Julien at reception. See you soon!

23/08/2026: A truly unpleasant experience. The staff were extremely rude, impolite and unprofessional, making us feel unwelcome from the moment we arrived. Mistakes can happen, but arrogance and a complete lack of basic courtesy are simply unacceptable in hospitality. We left genuinely shocked by the way we were treated. Without doubt one of the worst restaurant experiences we have ever had. We will certainly not return.

17/08/2026: An authentic, family-run Lyonnais bistro for 3 generations; I've been going there for 40 years.

05/09/2026: Small restaurant with delicious typical food.

01/09/2026: La Mere Jean is a great restaurant - the hostess on the night we attended was so helpful! She was so patient with our questions and providing us with excellent recommendations on what to eat..If your traveling to Lyon this is a must try!

17/08/2026: Warm welcome... Emma is sunny and responsive!

14/08/2026: The service is excellent, and the food is fantastic! Ideal for a great time.

16/07/2026: Dining at Re-Confort was simply marvellous. We had the dish of the day: fried aubergines à la Bolognese, served with courgettes sliced as thin as tagliatelle and dressed with a lemon vinaigrette. Highly recommended!

14/07/2026: A small menu guarantees quality, and the setting is superb, both inside and on the outdoor terrace. Excellent value for money.

10/08/2026: Great authentic Bouchon - really good food, good price and lovely setting

06/08/2026: Anyone wanting to try Lyonnais cuisine is in the right place: family-run, cozy, and with excellent food.

20/08/2026: Excellent value for money, which is so rare in Lyon! Generous and delicious meal. Quick and efficient. Top-notch service. Thanks to the waitress for the mashed potatoes! 😁

20/08/2026: An authentic, generous, and budget-friendly French experience in Lyon! If you're looking for traditional French bistro classics in Lyon served with great quality and unbelievable prices, Bouillon Maurice is an absolute must-visit! We started with some classic Lyonnais starters: the local Rosette de Lyon cured sausage served with butter and cornichons, along with a refreshing bowl of Velouté menthe-petits pois (chilled pea and mint soup) and a rich, creamy Cervelle de Canut (a traditional Lyonnais seasoned cheese dip). Every single starter was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. For the main courses, we went with two classic French dishes: Tartare de Bœuf au couteau – Perfectly seasoned hand-cut beef tartare served with a generous portion of golden, crispy fries. Tête de veau sauce gribiche – Tender, beautifully prepared calf's head accompanied by steamed potatoes and a rich, savory gribiche sauce. Absolutely authentic and full of depth! The atmosphere captures the authentic French bouillon charm—lively, welcoming, and unpretentious. Considering the fantastic quality of the food and the incredibly reasonable menu prices, this place offers unbeatable value in Lyon. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a genuine taste of French comfort food!

07/08/2026: A truly perfect experience, from the welcome and order taking to the wine recommendations and the rest of the meal. Not a single flaw, whether it was the exceptional wine recommendation or the impeccable service where nothing was ever lacking. A warm and attentive team (special mention for Bastien). An extensive wine and spirits/digestif list. Thank you for this wonderful experience, see you soon!

24/07/2026: A charming restaurant tucked away on a side street with gourmet menus. The service was a bit slow, but there were plenty of tables and quite a few regulars. The daily special was good. However, the main course was a little salty; you don't realize it while eating it, but you felt thirsty all afternoon, despite drinking two bottles of water during lunch for two! The wine list by the glass could be a bit limited considering the gourmet menus and the clientele (who are wine connoisseurs).

08/07/2026: 26 euros was perhaps a bit of an exaggeration 😅

04/07/2026: Friendly, warm, and lovingly prepared cuisine. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you so much, we'll be back!

11/08/2026: Best food eaten. Really cute and nice place.

06/08/2026: A small, affordable restaurant with friendly service on rue Mercière.
