Les meilleurs restaurants dans le arrondissement Lyon-2E de Lyon

26/04/2026: The lamb tagine with almonds was good. However, I was very disappointed by the dessert: Cinnamon Oranges. It consisted of six orange slices placed on a plate with very little cinnamon and a ton of orange blossom water (not mentioned on the menu, so it's a nice touch for those who don't like orange blossom). On the plus side, the decor is beautiful and immerses you in a Moroccan atmosphere. The welcome wasn't very warm. Furthermore, the manager sat down two tables opposite us with his cell phone and stayed there for half the meal. Not ideal if you want to have a quiet conversation, as he could hear everything since we were the only ones inside. Disappointing experience.

24/04/2026: The couscous is usually excellent, but today it was very, very average. And now it's far too expensive: an extra €7.50 for three merguez sausages is outrageous! Regretfully, I won't be returning to La Mamounia!

14/02/2026: I found the place quite nice, not too noisy, with a limited menu, suggesting it was all homemade. The mushroom ravioli were very good. However, they say the quality of any place is measured by the state of its toilets, and here, it was a disaster: a strong smell of urine, dirty grout, and hardly any soap left. It's a shame; it was the only negative point.

19/12/2025: It's a nice little bar, with warm and energetic people. We had a sort of light dinner and drinks which was (in my opinion, mind you) decent but not very elaborate; at least, I didn't get the impression it was homemade. However, the drinks were excellent and well-served. It's a bit too small, in my opinion, to accommodate a large crowd, which is a shame because otherwise the bar is nice.

19/02/2026: Warm and welcoming place with friendly staff

03/02/2026: Thanks to the employee for cleaning up my big turd that was stuck in the toilet bowl (on the left).

03/02/2026: It all started with a birthday gift from the Confluence shopping center. I decided to try the Vapiano restaurant. What a treat! I received a very warm welcome (from the blue-eyed waiter); He didn't hesitate to suggest a different dish than the one I had chosen—kudos for his professionalism! The restaurant's atmosphere is superb, with great background music. I really want to thank him for his kind gesture at the end of my meal, which made the experience truly special. I highly recommend it!

01/02/2026: An extremely disappointing experience on every level. The food arrived barely lukewarm: undercooked pasta, bland, tasteless pizzas. There was no skill in the kitchen, and no enjoyment in eating. The service was incomprehensibly slow, especially since the restaurant requires ordering via QR code and payment before being served, ostensibly to save time. Given the poor quality of the meal, one wonders if this system isn't simply a way to avoid complaints or prevent customers from leaving without paying. Drinks are advertised as available on the app, but then suddenly become unavailable once the order is placed. For children, the syrup cups were sticky and served without any care. As for family-friendly options, it was a complete failure: all the tables were high, but the high chairs weren't the right height, making the meal uncomfortable and unsafe. And only three high chairs for a full restaurant speaks volumes about the consideration given to families. The desserts are just like everything else: tasteless, poorly executed, and underwhelming. To top it all off, the value for money is simply shameful considering the service offered. This establishment is poorly managed and disorganized, with no regard for quality or customer comfort. It's an address that charges a premium for a mediocre experience and is clearly not worth the trip.

19/01/2026: Excellent pizza! Always delicious and top-notch service!

18/01/2026: Thank you to the team for welcoming us so warmly and providing top-notch service for 11 people! You definitely deserve your 5 stars 😉

20/04/2026: We celebrated a hen party at Docks40 on Saturday. The food was delicious, and the servers were very friendly and smiling—super pleasant! The only downside was the air conditioning right above us. At reception, they insisted we take off our jackets, but as a result, we were all freezing! 😅 It takes a little while to get into the groove afterward (we would have liked a bit more Latin music 😝, but to each their own). Overall, a great experience.

19/04/2026: Far from satisfactory. The service is mediocre; they rush you to order, serve you food before you've finished your aperitif, the cocktails are expensive and very average... the desserts aren't great either... and to top it all off, you pay and shortly after, they rather rudely usher you from your table to free up space for dancing. We won't be back.

15/02/2026: Mixed feelings about our Valentine's Day evening aboard the Hermès II (Bateaux Lyonnais) The cruise was unfortunately canceled at the last minute due to safety concerns related to bad weather. It's obviously a shame for an evening like this, even though we were assured of a refund. The boat is pleasant, nicely decorated with pink lighting, a few (fabric) rose petals, and small (also fabric) bouquets on the tables, adding a romantic touch. The welcome and service were warm and attentive throughout the evening. However, the Valentine's Day meal was a disappointment. The amuse-bouche was uninspired. The velouté served as a starter lacked flavor; several tables even asked for salt and pepper. The vol-au-vent was quite good (one to share). The main course—John Dory fillet, Beaujolais sauce velouté, sweet potato mousseline, and baby spinach—was decent, but not memorable, with little garnish. The dessert was rather disappointing and failed to provide a memorable ending to the meal. Another major drawback was the wine. We opted for the drinks package, but the quality fell far short of our expectations, and we both experienced heartburn. In short, the atmosphere and service were acceptable, but the food won't be remembered fondly.

13/02/2026: A terrible experience. We booked a cruise for my birthday, which was cancelled at the last minute because the boat wasn't running. Already very disappointing. We decided to give it another try for Valentine's Day... and again, the boat didn't sail and simply remained docked. No compensation whatsoever, despite the two disappointments. You book a cruise to go sailing, not to stay put! For the price paid, this is truly unacceptable. I do not recommend it!

20/12/2025: We went to Ares restaurant for our Christmas shopping… We had a wonderful time with Fernanda and Ama… The Italian food was delicious!!! Go there, you'll be delighted with the welcome… Aurora, Maïté, Tracy, Manu, and Lisa ☺️👏

13/12/2025: A truly wonderful discovery. From the welcome to the service and the quality of the food, everything was flawless. Thank you.

20/04/2026: We were drawn in by the quaint atmosphere and the friendly staff. Unfortunately, I can't rate the food as highly; it was truly subpar. Not recommended.

20/04/2026: Sexually harassed by the cook. Not only is it overpriced and average at best, but as we left the restaurant the greasy cook felt the urge to shout sexually explicit nonsense at the women in our group, while the rest of the male staff (all of them smoking) did absolutely nothing. STAY AWAY

05/02/2026: We were looking for a nice place to eat well, and we came to the right place. The gentleman was very welcoming. It's ideal for enjoying a fondue, a raclette, or Mont d'Or cheese, which was our choice, and it was excellent. I highly recommend it. This is the kind of little restaurant that's missing in our area (19). Elise & Loic

03/02/2026: Excellent, nothing to say. Just be prepared for the fact that it's very filling.

29/09/2025: A real favorite! ⭐️ The dishes are generous and most are under €20, which is truly appreciable and rare, especially in Lyon. The menu is varied, everything is tasty and well-prepared. As someone of Italian descent, I can say that you'll find the true tastes of Italy here! This is, in my opinion, the best Italian restaurant in Lyon. The service is impeccable: the waiters are warm, attentive, and fast. A little extra for the cocktails, which are excellent.

27/09/2025: An excellent experience! The dishes were delicious, beautifully presented, and prepared with care. A big thank you to the manager for his warm welcome, professionalism, and attention to detail. You can truly taste the passion behind every plate. I highly recommend this restaurant and will gladly return!

30/04/2026: Good selection of local products very neatly arranged inside the shop. The service however appeared to be optional and far of being welcoming. Room for improvement.

22/04/2026: Everything is excellent... the staff is top-notch...

20/04/2026: Credit card payments under €10 are not accepted. We wonder why?

30/03/2026: A very quiet place to have coffee, and right next to Bellacourt Square.
