I have eaten several times in la cinq mains and the food is always delicious and the people working there are sooo nice. If there is a criticism it would be for portions to be a little bigger, but apart from that SUPER. Marina

I had the three course menu. Each plate came loaded with interesting complementary flavours and contrasting textures. A good general atmosphere too.

We were looking for something other than the endless traditional bouchons in Vieux Lyon - we wanted lighter, fresher, tastier food and this really delivered! We each ordered different items to share and taste - everything was delicious and the service was attentive and friendly. Highly recommended!

Our first evening in France after 21 hours of travel was in Lyon and on my birthday. Cinq Mains was par excellence in every way - the food, the ambiance, the presentation, the service, all of it. Nina was outstanding and so very friendly and engaging. From crossing the threshold to enter to paying the bill, our experience was the very best! Thank you Cinq Mains for a wonderful meal and evening! We will be back! 😁
