Les meilleurs restaurants en Lyon

22/01/2026: Posted on Facebook following your response. Barbara Cartland books given away, according to the manager. I have proof of 6 visits from my bank in November. They sent me your idiotic nonsense. I'm leaving you, just like your meals. I won't miss them, nor the employees or the manager. No respect whatsoever. It's an ugly place, no life, everyone keeps to themselves. I made Brazilian bracelets and I hate idiots!

09/12/2025: Good food and a very nice atmosphere. The staff were friendly and even gave me suggestions on what to try. Everything was reasonably priced as well. Overall, a great place to stop for a meal or a coffee.

26/02/2026: Lunch with a friend, seared tuna with vegetables, fresh and tasty produce

19/02/2026: A very good, unpretentious restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere, tasty food (the veal and chicken duo on the daily menu was perfectly cooked, the tomato and basil ravioli were delicious, and the tarte tatin was excellent), and efficient service at a very reasonable price. I wouldn't hesitate to return.

01/03/2026: We rediscovered this lovely spot last fall and have been back many times since, whether for a morning coffee and croissant, a delicious daily special for lunch, or tapas for dinner. Each time, the welcome has been warm and friendly. All the staff and the manager are extremely pleasant and attentive. The food is tasty, varied, and of very high quality. Don't miss the cocktails; they're also worth trying. In short, this place has become our favorite spot in the neighborhood, and we definitely plan to return regularly. Thank you for everything. See you soon, and we highly recommend this place! Catherine and Hélène join me in this sentiment.

01/03/2026: What a delightful rediscovery of this place last autumn! We've been back many times since, whether for a morning coffee and croissant, lunch, or dinner. Each time, the welcome is incredibly warm and friendly. We always enjoy ourselves. The food is varied and delicious. All the staff and the manager are truly exceptionally welcoming and courteous. This place has become our favorite spot, and we feel very comfortable there. The cocktails are worth the trip alone. Thank you for everything, and see you very soon. I highly recommend this place. Catherine and Hélène join me in this praise.

10/03/2026: This place needs to be inspected by the French tax authorities (DGFiP) and/or the consumer protection agency (DGCCRF)! They don't accept cards, contrary to what's indicated on the front door (the payment terminal has been out of order for three months, coincidentally). Cash only! They give change with their own money (I'm not sure if this is recorded in their accounts). The cashier is on the phone while speaking to us. Their colleague is freely scratching or massaging their feet at a table in the restaurant (in front of other customers). No receipt is provided. It's therefore impossible to verify what you ordered and the corresponding price. The menus are hastily patched up with (half-torn) price tags stuck over the old ones. In short, the service is sloppy and reeks of tax fraud.

15/02/2026: We tried a few dishes and overall they were good! The portions are generous, and you leave feeling satisfied with meals costing €10-15. The interior decor gives me the impression of a family-run restaurant with friendly staff. The only downside, and something I suggest they modernize as soon as possible, is the payment system. The card machine has been out of order for months, making it difficult to pay without cash. This also results in very long queues because groups struggle to collect cash or pay via Revolut! Furthermore, the bill is calculated manually/in their head, so be wary, as mistakes happen.

24/02/2026: A landmark on Cours Charlemagne, this 40-year-old establishment is truly beautiful! And the Italian family is warm and welcoming. Chef Joseph is in the kitchen, his daughter Sabrina manages the dining room, and Mama oversees everything—we love it! The dishes are beautiful and delicious! The setting features Italian frescoes and tasteful decor.

22/02/2026: We were walking through Lyon after sightseeing, simply wanting to extend the moment with a good meal. That's how we ended up here, almost by chance. The dining room was calm, without any unnecessary commotion. A simple, straightforward atmosphere. The welcome, however, left us a little hesitant. We had to make eye contact, initiate the greeting. Nothing dramatic, but it's something that sticks in the memory of a place. Then the pizzas arrived. We chose a cream base, as is often the case. And there, the presentation spoke volumes. A perfectly held crust, precise cooking, a generous topping without being heavy. The cream added roundness and balance without masking the flavors. I finished mine without difficulty... and I even helped my partner finish hers. That's often a good sign. The service remained adequate, without any particular flair. As for drinks, the prices are noticeably above average. A detail that contributes to the overall balance. However, I retain the essential point: a sincere, well-executed product that prioritizes execution over decoration. My perspective evolves over time. Consistency will make the difference. Simple things, when done well, remain the most memorable.

08/12/2025: We were looking for somewhere to eat after the show in the Parc de la Tête during the Festival of Lights. We headed towards the Cité Internationale and stumbled upon this little restaurant; the staff were friendly, the food was quick and good.

09/11/2025: I'm delighted, as I rarely find food to my liking. The menu is original, the selection is nice, and the food is good and fresh—neither too sweet nor too rich. The prices are quite reasonable. Highly recommended.

31/01/2026: Excellent service on a busy Saturday night. The set menu dishes were superb and the service impeccable despite the crowd! Congratulations to the entire team!

17/09/2025: I regularly go for coffee and meet clients at this magnificent establishment. The welcome is warm and subtle, and the seating areas are very comfortable. It's both calm and lively. The view of the pool from the dining room or the terrace is an undeniable plus.

13/02/2026: Oh my god, the pizzas are so good!!! I recommend them 1000000%

16/01/2026: Honestly, the Domino's pizzeria on Place Jean Jaurès is excellent! I order there very often, and the quality is always consistently high: it never changes, even on promotional days (and that's rare 😄). The food is always delicious, and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. Plus, there's a comfortable seating area where you can wait for your pizza in peace and quiet, and it's always clean and pleasant. It's a place you'll want to come back to again and again. Well done to the whole team! 👏

08/02/2026: After the Etretat Cliffs Exhibition (a superb exhibition!), I took a break with a friend for a hot chocolate. Supposedly, the chocolate wasn't hot at all; it was more like milk with a tiny bit of chocolate. Quite disappointed. However, we did have a chocolate financier, which was good, so it wasn't all bad 🥴

03/11/2025: Perfect for a snack, but they're missing the essential decaf coffee to serve with the pastries at 4 pm. Not everyone can drink tea. The restoration of Raoul Dufy's fresco is magnificent. Bravo to the artists ♥ and thank you to the café owner for the decaf 🙏🏽

04/03/2026: High prices, less than average service.

04/03/2026: After reading the reviews, I was really ambivalent about the place, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The servers were super friendly and the food was really very good, although I thought the price was perhaps a tad high. The atmosphere and the comfortable seating were also nice. My only disappointment is that there's very little space to move between the tables; they're much too close together, and if you happen to end up in a spot in the aisle, it's awful... It's obvious they're trying to maximize the space...

07/03/2026: Amazing atmosphere!! Top-notch staff!! Excellent oysters and cocktails, especially the cotton candy one!! And of course, a huge thank you to Jean-Yves, the manager, whom I adore ❤️❤️❤️

01/03/2026: Excellent, welcoming, friendly, safe. Nothing more to say, it's all there!

08/03/2026: The meat tastes excellent, and despite the bad reviews, you're just princesses! Thank you, Imam, for the warm welcome! ;)

27/01/2026: I am really not satisfied at all because the meat is disgusting and I wonder if the meat is not expired.
